MacIver News Minute: The Redcoats are Coming

Two hundred fifty-one years ago, Paul Revere rode through the Massachusetts night on horseback, yelling: "The Redcoats are coming." The Declaration of Independence was signed a year later. This year, as we celebrate the 250th anniversary of our country, we need to remember its core principles of liberty, freedom, equality - and socialism??!? Oh, definitely not socialism, but you if you look around the country, you might be fooled. In 2026, it's not the Redcoats that are coming. The socialists are. New York City elected the openly socialist Mamdani Mayor last year, and already his big tax and spend plans are facing a $5 billion budget shortfall.  And the free buses and city-run grocery store are not a reality.  It’s Not Working! In Los Angeles, a Democratic Socialist is running for mayor. Even here in Wisconsin, there are candidates running for offices pledging their allegiance to the socialist cause. Remember, America is the beacon of hope for Liberty, Freedom, and the American Dream.  That’s how it works
