Generations of Americans have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect liberal democracy. Veterans Day reminds us that American ideals will survive only if we're willing to defend them. Let's rise to the challenge. #LiberalismIsPatriotism

Have I mentioned lately that Heritage has a journalism fellowship named after the Guardabassi family, the male head of which was one of Mussolini's emissaries in the US in the 1930s, while his wife was a leading funder of US antisemites & neo-Nazis in the 1950s-60s? “Our own people.”

i would even say it's not just a matter of "radical goals, liberal tactics" but rather recognizing the inherent and enduring radicalism of the liberal ideal--namely, the freedom and equality of all persons--and how far we have yet to go in achieving it

Conservatism clings to hierarchy and tradition. Liberalism trusts equality and reason. The Declaration chose liberalism. So should we.

Liberal values are American values. Freedom of religion, freedom of speech, equality before the law—patriotism means defending them.
