Many countries celebrate when their countries were liberated from the Nazis. In Denmark for instance, we celebrate May 5.
But World War II officially ended on September 2, 1945, with Japanese foreign affairs minister Mamoru Shigemitsu signing the Japanese Instrument of Surrender aboard the USS Missouri in the presence of US General Sutherland (picture 1).
However, Trump thinks that because countries in Europe celebrate dates in May, that must be when the entire World War II ended (picture 2).
I say we nationalize Google Search and put librarians in charge of it.
“President Trump’s team is selectively stripping away the public record, reconstructing his preferred vision of America in the negative space of purged history, archivists and historians said. As data and resources are deleted or altered, something foundational is also at risk: Americans’ ability to access and evaluate their past, and with it, their already shaky trust in facts.“
“We tend to take them for granted, but there’s something quietly radical about even the idea of a library and the intellectual freedom these local institutions inspire.”

Ukrainians are dying every day, and this shit show is what The White House has to offer the world.
What an absolute disgrace.
The world must realize Washington has fallen to the Russians. The sooner we do, the sooner we can defeat Putin.
