It was not in my citizenship quiz, I only had to memorize the pledge of allegiance. But our national anthem seems to be about ports. Trump got the words ramparts and airports mixed up.

O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner, O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country, should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

O thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation.
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the Heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: 'In God is our trust.'
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

This seems to be the thing that unites US in times of crisis. Biden could go way past sanctions and not start a war and also raise his popularity.

Putin caused Jan 6th! Trump was just the tool.
So, if you really want to do something for the Ukraine, for the Europe and to any other decent country or person, please also Do. Your. Own. Homework! Show to both your home audience and to the rest of the world that also the western flank of Putin’s army, the one located in your country, is kept accountable! No special treatment, just f**king enforce your old existing laws to ultra-rich/influential white dudes, as well! You are just tools, but you are very important tools for Putin also in the European front. Don’t let him use you.

Likely already got one, from what I hear, hopefully not from propaganda laden or plain bad sources, his paranoia has reached clinical stage and he won't let anybody close to him, and I assume he's deadly afraid of tasting something funny in his tea.

former resident rump is a moron, the subs don't have to be in Russian waters to threaten them, they are doing that quite well right now, especially if some happen to be on the polar side of Alaskan waters, I bet that from there, a trident could reach moscow without other difficulties than those posed by the Russian defense systems.

The former president should keep his trap shut.
