Previously: GOP (With Brave Exceptions Like Rep. Matt Rosendale) Rolls Over For Anti-White Juneteenth Scam

Republican leaders celebrated Juneteenth over the weekend, even though their holiday tweets came with a rainbow-colored black power fist emoji added automatically by Twitter [ How Social Media Platforms are Marking Juneteenth, Which Commemorates the End of Slavery in the US,  by Andrew Hutchinson, Social Media Today, June 19, 2021].

This was an embarrassing sight. It completely undermined Republican arguments that Juneteenth was not a “woke” holiday, but a celebration of America. The Twitter-imposed emoji said otherwise.

There’s other bad news for conservative fans of Juneteenth. The city of Evanston, Illinois, recently announced it cancelled its July 4th parade allegedly over COVID fears. However, this same city sponsored Juneteenth and Pride Month celebrations in June [Illinois city cancels July 4 parade over COVID-19 concerns but allows Juneteenth and Pride celebrations, by Caitlan McFaul, Fox News, June 20, 2021]. It’s likely the city decided to cancel the patriotic parade to save money for the woker events. The COVID justification is just an excuse to hide the true motive.

As Montana Rep. Matt Rosendale argued in his opposition against the holiday, the Left will seek to replace our Independence Day with the anti-white day. In Evanston, that’s already happened.
