It told me, that america is so dependent on easily manipulated media, that they ignore reality itself in favour of fantasy delivered by a foreigner because they like how it sounds.
2024 election really was the end.

Maybe because the crap about immigrant criminals was just that-- crap... most immigrants, people here trying to become citizens, are LAW ABIDING. They do not have criminal records and live productive lives in the US. We need to stop this crap.
“It confirms what we already knew — this was not about public safety, it’s about stoking chaos and fear and terrorizing communities,” said state Sen. Royce Duplessis.
Records reviewed by AP detail online monitoring, arrests in New Orleans immigration crackdown
Records reviewed by the AP show that few of those arrested have criminal histories beyond traffic violations.

A Republican president once picked Ben Bernanke—a future Nobel laureate—because expertise mattered more than spin. That norm, picking Fed chairs for brains not loyalty, does more to protect your paycheck than any campaign slogan.

Yes the days are long gone when you can spread this crap about both parties are the same, Americans are all like one another. NO WE ARE NOT. If after all this you still vote GOP YOU ARE NOT LIKE ME. And I will NEVER be like you... It is that simple.
Here’s what he’s missing:
We have a president calling immigrants “garbage” and affordability a hoax, a DOD secretary cosplaying war games with no accountability, a VP saying it’s “reasonable” to not want neighbors who speak another language, and a Speaker who believes women are inferior.
The GOP.

Perhaps they translated the Russian incorrectly
'The 33-page document, unveiled by the US administration last week, suggests Europe is facing "civilisational erasure" and does not cast Russia as a threat to the US.'
'Civilisational erasure'?

New US security strategy aligns with Russia's vision, Moscow says
The Kremlin welcomes the starkly worded document, which does not cast Russia as a threat to the US.

All, we had another major ICE #atrocity here in my town. For some reason, we are on their radar for special abuse. The entire government of this city is wide awake and watching ICE's every move now. We had been GOP since Lincoln, but that has CHANGED.

Railroads will be allowed to reduce inspections and rely more on technology to spot track problems
The nation’s freight railroads are going to be able to try relying more on technology and inspect their tracks less often after the federal government approved their waiver request on Friday.

You can be the most loving, compassionate person in the world... but... if you’re not actively guarding your mind...you will become desensitized to human suffering...in ways that are far beyond what you would ever consider acceptable.
They’re not hiding the brutality anymore.
They want you to see it.
They want you to get used to it.👇

If everything were on the up and up, the Republican-led Congress would be passing budgets, overseeing agencies, and serving constituents, not taking long breaks.
Checks on the president, SCOTUS, and the cabinet would actually exist.
