Shelby Review

Rep. Josh Schriver, an American politician known for his active engagement on social media, shared a series of reflections on Independence Day via Twitter. The tweets focus on the themes of freedom, patriotism, and sovereignty, intertwined with personal insights and religious undertones.

In a tweet posted on July 4th, 2025 at 14:01 UTC, Schriver posed philosophical questions about the nature of freedom. He asked, "What is freedom? Does freedom mean doing whatever we want? How can we be free when held captive by our desires?" He concluded by quoting a biblical verse from 2 Corinthians 3:17: "Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom."

Later that day at 15:05 UTC, Schriver reflected on his heritage and loyalty to America. In this tweet, he wrote about his family's long-standing commitment to the nation through various roles over ten generations. "Loyalty to America is the way of my family," he stated, highlighting ancestors who were Christians, soldiers, pioneers among others.

Continuing with patriotic sentiments at 15:17 UTC on July 4th, Schriver commented on America's independence and its need for renewed sovereignty in modern times. He wrote about America's birth from independence from Great Britain and expressed a call for reassertion against contemporary foreign influences. "...in the name of our King and God, Jesus Christ!", he concluded.
