Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

What an amazing day in the US and elsewhere. So heartening.
Interestingly, I have tried twice to post this article on Facebook using r.pebmac.ca which usually allows me to post newspaper articles in Canada but not tonight, not this article.

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

—With love,
Your American allies.
