Freedom 250 Rodeo Aims to Bring Western Tradition to Nation’s Capital

By Emily Hallas | Washington Examiner The American rodeo is coming to Washington, D.C., this summer for the country’s 250th birthday, over four decades since the last presidential rodeo. Freedom 250, an organization linked to President Donald Trump, is spearheading the show set to take place on the National Mall as part of the Great American State Fair, planned from June 25 to July 10. Led by the Cervi Championship Rodeo, organizers are aiming to celebrate 250 years of U.S. history, embodied by the American cowboy, as the United States marks the semiquincentennial. Binion Cervi, who leads the Cervi rodeo, told the Washington Examiner that cowboy runs in his blood. His family was involved in the last presidential rodeo during the Reagan era, back in ...

Buying American is about more than the price tag

By Karen Post | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice This year, our country turns 250. Anniversaries are not just markers of time — they are moments of reflection. What kind of America do we want to be for the next 250 years? My answer is simple: one that invests in its own prosperity. I am a 65-year-old serial entrepreneur who recently secured a license with America250 and Freedom250, to produce a line of American Prosperity Keepsakes. The prosperity pillow is our hero product. The concept of prosperity pillows isn’t new. They’ve existed in cultures for thousands of years, often tied to symbols of luck and fortune. My version is different — distinctly American.  This pillow is not about luck. It is about grit, creativity, and the relentless pursuit of the American D...

From a Detroit crack house to the National Mall: The pastor Colorado sees in June

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Lorenzo Sewell sold drugs on Detroit's east side as a kid. His father went to prison for murder. His younger brother was killed by a car. Today he stands on the National Mall with House Speaker Mike Johnson and War Secretary Pete Hegseth, part of a national moment of rededication that organizers expect to draw 15,000 people. "We can be in a crack house or we can be in the White House," Sewell said on Fox & Friends Weekend Sunday morning. He says faith took him from the one toward the other. "God loves us and willing to reach out to us regardless." Next month, Colorado will meet him in person. Sewell now leads Detroit's 180 Church and is one of the faith leaders at Rededicate 250, the National Mall gathering marking the country's ap...
