I hear fireworks more at Christmas and New years than I do fourth of July here in I Imperial Valley. Maybe in 3 years 2026 we'll have a HUGE freedom fest being America's 250th birthday

it's illegal where I live AND to be truthful too dangerous not willing to take the chances I'd rather go where the fire department is in charge AND experience with fireworks πŸŽ†πŸŽ‡

It's literally like taking paper money and catching fire to it! Then hope it's not a dud. I live a mile and a half from where "Fire in the Sky" is being held so I can just step out and watch them.

I enjoy just hearing the month long war zone inflicted on us by those who do.

No I won't, but my neighbor, and his family always invite me to their 4th of July party, and it has awesome food, people, and fireworks. And it's next door, so I don't have to drive or park. Just 300 feet away.

What the do on their soil, is their business, but once their drugs are out on boats in the big beautiful Gulf of America, blow them out of the water.

We're not the world's police and we executed those people in cold blood. If Venezuela wants to kill its citizens without proof and without a trial, then leave the US out of it.

Venezuela is helping the companies that make Narcan.

What do you think of demolishing part of the White House to build a ballroom?

I think if it were Obama, nothing would be said about it. I think just because it’s President Trump there is the hate that some have for him. Not this much controversy when all the other changes were done by other presidents. None of this is costing taxpayers as it has in the past.

Please provide an example of such an expansive change ... this ballroom is likely to turn out to be larger than the White House itself! I don't doubt we'll see a TRUMP sign on it before it is finished!

Trump is improving the White House, and he is using private funding to do that.

Right ... "private funding" in exchange for pardons and other favors. The more accurate description is BRIBES.

Separation of the rich and poor is getting wider. I was never invited to watch a movie in the movie room just like I'll never be invited to any dances.....I think we'd be better off if they tore down the west wing

It's history, it's respect and honor, the ballroom was never approved and the drawings show it overshadowing the White House itself. Awful
