This is Seth Leibson for townhall.com. As we close in on our nation's birthday, more and more data give us cause for great concern. As Abraham Lincoln put it in his time, so too is it true today. Quote, at what point is the approach of danger to us to be expected? If it ever reaches us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our law, we must

ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men, we must live through all time or die

by suicide, close quote. Look around at our civic health just now. Article 4 of our Constitution

guarantees us a Republican form of government. But in our major states and cities, we now see

elected leaders and

political candidates from one of our two major parties that embrace both national and

democratic socialism, fascism and communism. We see a party fully embracing hatred of free

enterprise as much as constitutionalism and Americanism. And it all comes with a large

dose of anti-Semitism. This must be pointed out

and reversed. I'm Seth Leibson.
