Happy Independence Day America! Today, as we celebrate the founding of this great nation, let's reflect on the essence of our festivities. In its 248 years, the United States has achieved remarkable milestones that set it apart. From a functional democracy to the peaceful transfer of power, our commitment to freedom is unwavering. For many like me, who immigrated from dictatorships, America symbolizes hope and opportunity. The belief in unity amidst diversity is what makes this country exceptional. As we aid refugees and immigrants seeking safety and a fresh start, we uphold the values that define us. In a world where democracies are under unprecedented threat, safeguarding American freedom is paramount. Democracy is not just a system; it's the cornerstone of justice, freedom, and individual rights. Let's honor those who sacrificed for our liberty by defending the core principles of democracy today and always. Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸 #IndependenceDay #AmericanFreedom #Democracy #Unity

I’d also like to to thank all of the brave people who gave their lives to obtain and keep our independence for the last 248 years. Original Declaration (link below to read all of it): WHEN in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness—-That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security. Such has been the patient Sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The History of the present King of Great-Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World. He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public Good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing Importance, unless suspended in their Operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other Laws for the Accommodation of large Districts of People, unless those People would relinquish the Right of Representation in the Legislature, a Right inestimable to them, and formidable to Tyrants only.

A Celebration of Freedom - "America the Beautiful" The Declaration was a powerful assertion of the colonies' right to be free and self-determined, laying the groundwork for the birth of a new nation. Independence Day celebrations have evolved over the centuries, but certain traditions have become quintessentially American. Fireworks displays light up the night skies, symbolizing the spirit of celebration that followed the successful quest for independence. While the Fourth of July is a day of celebration, it is also an opportunity for reflection. The ideals enshrined in the Declaration of Independence – life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness – remind us of the ongoing journey toward equality and justice for all Americans. As fireworks light up the sky and communities come together, the Fourth of July stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of freedom and the shared commitment to building a more perfect union. #RevolutionaryWar #AmericanRevolution #StarsandStripes #AmericanDream #GodBlessAmerica #UnitedWeStand #AmericanValues #AmericanHeritage #July4th #AmericanCulture #AmericanSpirit #AmericanIdentity #AmericanExceptionalism #AmericanIndependence #USAstrong #ValueIcons #ValueIconsAmericanRevolution #VIAmericanIndependence #ValueIconsAmericanFreedom #ValueIconsUSAstrong #ValueIconsAmericanSpirit #ValueIconsAmericanCulture #ValueIconsGodBlessAmerica #ValueIconsAmericanHeritage #ValueIconsAmericanRevolution #ValueIconsBeautifulAmerica #ValueIconsIndependenceDayCelebrations #ValueIconsAmericanLegacy #ValueIconsAmericanTradition

THE AMERICAN’S CREED “ I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.” –Written by William Tyler Page in 1917, accepted by the United States House of Representatives on April 3, 1918. So well said. I wish it could be recited each day by all elected officials, schoolchildren, and members of the military.🇺🇸 It is quoted in several of my resources, including my book, online course, and posters. Share it in the workplace and with family and friends. Let this be a starting point to great conversations about the history of our nation. 💡 May God heal and bless America. 🙏🇺🇸🙏 #prosperity101 #westandforfreedom #godblessamerica #godblesstheusa #freedom #liberty #employer #employers #constitution #workplace #politicsaffectsbusiness #politicsaffectsourdailylives US Christian Chamber of Commerce Red Balloon Marty Lotito

Today, we commemorate #Juneteenth, a pivotal moment in American history and the long and painful era of enslavement. Though the Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863, ostensibly freeing those enslaved in Confederate States, Juneteenth marks the enforcement of the Emancipation Proclamation finally reaching the most distant corners of Confederate territory with Union troops arriving in Galveston Bay, Texas on June 19, 1865. Meanwhile, the Thirteenth Amendment would still be necessary to end slavery throughout the United States. Juneteenth is a celebration of #emancipation, #resilience, and the enduring spirit of the African American community. It's a day to reflect on the progress made and the work still needed to achieve true #equality and #justice in all aspects of life, including healthcare. We honor this day at PACE Healthcare Capital and reaffirm our commitment to invest in solutions that promote health equity and better ensure quality healthcare for all. Together, we can build a more inclusive and just healthcare system.

Celebrating Independence Day honors the courage and sacrifices made to secure our freedoms. Our inalienable rights, enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, grant us life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. As we celebrate, let's honor the resilience and adaptability that define our nation. Because of our courageous forefathers and those who have served since, we enjoy the freedoms of speech, worship, assembly, and petitioning the government. The sacrifices of our forefathers and those since are a testament to the freedoms we celebrate today. Old Glory, the United States ensign, the "sacred emblem of ‘The land of the free and the home of the brave,’ symbolizes these values. Let's come together this 4th of July to celebrate our cherished freedoms and the spirit of independence.

🎆 The History of the Fourth of July: Celebrating Independence and Resilience 🇺🇸 As we gather to celebrate the Fourth of July, it’s essential to reflect on the history and significance of this monumental day. On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, marking the birth of the United States of America and its separation from British rule. The Declaration, primarily drafted by Thomas Jefferson, was a bold assertion of the colonies' desire for freedom and self-governance. It laid the foundation for a nation built on principles of liberty, equality, and the pursuit of happiness. Over the years, the Fourth of July has become a day of unity and celebration, filled with fireworks, parades, and gatherings. It's a time to honor the bravery and vision of our Founding Fathers, as well as the countless individuals who have contributed to the nation's growth and success. At Walker Capital Partners, we recognize the importance of independence and resilience, values that are deeply ingrained in our nation's history and spirit. As we enjoy the festivities, let's also remember the significance of this day and the enduring strength it symbolizes. Wishing everyone a happy and safe Fourth of July! 🇺🇸 #FourthOfJuly #IndependenceDay #AmericanHistory #WalkerCapitalPartners #Liberty #Resilience
