This is written the same way you write propaganda as a precursor to invading countries.
Those poor Ukrainians. We must liberate them from their Nazi government that they elected. Its in their best interest.

Every time a headline includes "Trump says" and then they just print whatever lie he's going with that day.
"Trump gives ________ 20 day deadline for __________" what a freaking great news article I'm sure that is.
-
Not a bad idea for Cards Against Humanity, actually.
- Trump gives children with terminal cancer 20 day deadline for returning to the Holy Land
- Trump gives teenage moms 20 day deadline for hands-on sex ed lessons.
- Trump gives consensual sex 20 day deadline for sex.
None of those are out of place, neither in the game nor in reality.

Which template number is that?

Dude isn't even alive and they're still bending the knee to him.

I suspect he died during his first presidency and was replaced with a body double/impersonator.

How many in red cities?
How many total in red states?
-
I'm sure we're going to see stormtroopers in Atlanta, Houston, and Tampa Bay before too long.
Any city with too many POC in it is going to be a "crime city" until that changes.

Gotta secure those elections by having the national guard do voting ID checks
- Chud from the future

If you rank by all "violent crime" chicago is number 92
If you rank by "murder/manslaughter" only its number 22
Which of the ones before it are "red" is something that i as a non USian do not know :DThis data is also seems to be very up to date from 2024/25

They do this on a local level as well.
It's also suspicious which crimes they tend to talk about and focus on. 3 people died today in a car accident after someone decided to try passing in a no-passing zone. I had to ask around to find out what happened. Yet the local news is showing a report on a teenager who is in critical condition after someone shot into his bedroom window.

Most local news stations are owned by the Sinclair Company

The news serves capitalism

Just for assesment.: Are such numbers normal in the states? I knew that you have a gun problem and I don't think the national guard will solve this. Just for comparison Berlin has 800 incidents a year including cases where only a gun was pointed at a victim.
-
Its a news story because it is not typical. That being said Berlin has a homicide rate around 1 per 100k people and Chicago has a homicide rate around 21 per 100k people as of 2024. There were 573 homicides total in 2024.
Most of these occur in a small number of chronically impoverished neighborhoods. The worst neighborhood, Austin, had 47 murders which is more than the safest 23 neighborhoods combined. 428 of those murders were black and 116 were Hispanic.
As you can see there is a decided slant to the data that shows why the Black Lives Matter movement exists. There is more or less a permanent underclass created by racism and failed drug policy.

In Chicago, kind of, yeah. It has a huge gang violence problem. Of course, that's a systemic issue which can't be solved by locking people up.

Oh, and the other thing that skins my shins with these new stations (at least in the USA)...
The artificially and over the top cheery incandescence in their facial expressions and voices. They're delivering horrible news about an earthquake in Turkey that killed hundreds of people, and they've got those perfectly bleached uber white teeth glaring through the smile they're just managing to suppress, but they're doing in that happy modern-distopia news voice in exactly the same tone they'd be using to announce the winning team of puppy bowl or something along those lines.

Seriously! I took a screenshot of news headlines on Sunday bc I noticed this but didn't know where to post it.
What is this bullshit? Democrats see crime as a major issue? Which ones? Literally everybody has been pointing out Trump sending the national guard to D.C. bc of crime was complete bullshit.
Stop helping these dictators spread propaganda and normalize a fucking military takeover!
AP you're not even allowed to come over to the white house anymore, what are you even doing? We thought you were cool?!
Guess the news media is going all in on one line again. Happens more often than I think most realize.
"This is extremely dangerous to our democracy"
It's always a threat to our democracy. But then the guy who does all this in the name of democracy is also a threat to our democracy? And the playbook he's using to destroy our democracy (project 2025) was literally written by a guy who never actually wanted a democracy even though it really, really, seems likely he helped overthrow the government and collapse the Soviet Union in the name of democracy but just created an oligarchy.
Then he decided he wanted to overthrow our democracy in 1999 bc he realized it would never be what he wanted, and he was angry Bill Clinton didn't actually get impeached after he got a BJ?
Then he died in 2008, but now we just have this guy in 2025 who is the result of the 1999 plans coming to fruition. He's unimpeachable and he's going to be allowed to just destroy the U.S. to like make a point? I guess?
Obviously it's going to be making a lot of rich people richer (that's always the point) but I can't even keep up with what narrative is being presented anymore to keep us believing. Maybe that's the point? Idk this is doo doo. I feel like if you're in the CIA you must either need to dissociate 24/7, or take a lot of drugs, or be in a constant existential crisis. Or maybe some combo platter. It just seems like the narrative gets more and more convoluted with time and makes less sense.
Obviously it's still being used as an excuse to invade other countries, but did they ever care about democracy actually existing even in the U.S.? Or was it always just an excuse the U.S./CIA used while they got wealthy and helped other wealthy people stay wealthy?
AP is no less beholden to their corporate overlords than any other corporate media, they were never cool. They just happened to be serving as the anchor for the "left" flank of traditional media's overton window.
White House bars AP reporter from Oval Office because of AP style policy on ‘Gulf of America’
I mean they seemed to be trying not to bow down at first. They got kicked out for not calling it the gulf of America. The Overton window has just kind of expanded to become like an entire wall.
