What the actual fu$&
So because the Book of Revelations in the Bible didn't specifically mention the United States of America then it was because we are a failed country??
She legit is questioning why John didn't write about the United States of America in Revelations??!!

When it was written, Revelations was probably written for the people then concerned about world events and what it may mean and not now.

NEW: Kerr County, hit by deadly floods this weekend, has had an emergency alert system since 2009.
We got recordings that show first responders asked that it be triggered early Friday. But some residents didn't get an alert until after 10am — six hours after the river began its precipitous rise.
Now, county officials won't answer our questions about why.

Kerr County residents say emergency alert messages sporadic, inconsistent during floods
Local officials have not answered questions about when and how they utilized the CodeRED system, which has been in place since 2009.

Of all the dumb shi** going on right now. This has to be the Dumbest
Gunn’s comments were swiftly criticized by right-wing commentators, including Kellyanne Conway, who said in a Fox News segment Monday people “don’t go to the movie theater to be lectured to and to have somebody throw their ideology onto us.”
Fox News host Jesse Watters joked Superman’s cape reads “MS-13,” the name of an international gang designated by the United States as a foreign terrorist organization, and he questioned whether Superman is “from Uganda” and whether there’s a “love scene with Batman and Robin.”
During the Fox News segment, a chyron on the screen read: “Superwoke.”
Other right-wing commentators, like Ben Shapiro, Tim Pool and widely followed right-wing X accounts like End Wokeness, piled onto the criticism in social media posts and YouTube videos, making “Superman” the latest movie deemed “woke” to be targeted by conservative critics.
Superman’s An Immigrant? Director James Gunn Faces Right-Wing Backlash For Claim
Topline
The upcoming “Superman” film faces some early turbulence from right-wing commentators after director James Gunn compared the superhero film to an immigrant story—referencing the character’s displacement from his home planet to Kansas—prompting Fox News to quickly label the film “Superwoke.”Key Facts
Gunn, writer-director of “Superman” and co-CEO of DC Studios, told The Sunday Times over the weekend the superhero movie is “the story of America,” stating it is about “an immigrant that came from other places” and how “basic human kindness is a value and is something we have lost.”Gunn’s comments were swiftly criticized by right-wing commentators, including Kellyanne Conway, who said in a Fox News segment Monday people “don’t go to the movie theater to be lectured to and to have somebody throw their ideology onto us.”

Chief Critics
Shapiro, in a video posted to his YouTube channel, accused the cast and crew of making an “attempt to separate Superman off from America,” alleging Gunn likened the character to an “illegal immigrant.” Shapiro said Superman is an “immigrant who assimilates to American values” and compared him unfavorably to Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, whom he accused of having a “deep hatred” for the United States, citing a years-old tweet Mamdani posted giving the middle finger to a statue of Christopher Columbus. Pool, in his YouTube video, said: “The issue is not, ‘Superman is an immigrant.’ The issue is illegal immigration,” but questioned whether Superman, who was sent to Earth as a baby, would’ve been entitled to birthright citizenship.

Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin reveals wife and family was rescued by National Guard in Texas floods
Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin said his family was rescued in the unprecedented floodwaters that killed more than 100 people in central Texas.Youngkin said that the floods that struck Hunt, Texas, in the early hours of July 4 left his wife, Virginia First Lady Suzanne Youngkin, and other family members stranded at a property near the Guadalupe River, according to NBC affiliate WWBT.
"My family was there, along with friends, and by the grace of God, my family was safe," he said. "I have to say there was moments when they weren’t. They ended up being safe during the day."
In an event unrelated to the floodwaters, Youngkin told reporters that Texas authorities offered to airlift his family out of the area. The family declined the offer once it was clear they were no longer in danger, he said, and those resources were allocated to those in life-threatening situations.
Youngkin added that he flew to Texas on Friday afternoon and met with members of the National Guard who helped rescue his family.
The Youngkin family visits the property several times a year, according to WWBT. Youngkin told reporters that his wife's family has stayed in the area
"These people are family to us, deep relationships," he said. "And, therefore, what happened in the wee hours of the morning on Friday has been devastating. The loss of life is just shocking."
Over the weekend, the governor announced in a statement that he was deploying two Virginia Type III Swift Water Rescue Teams to assist the ongoing recovery efforts in Texas.
"Our hearts go out to the families and communities in Texas who have been devastated by these historic floods," he said at the time. "We stand in solidarity with the people of Texas, and we are committed to offering any and all support requested during this critical time."
On Tuesday, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that more than 173 people are still missing, days after the floods struck the area in Kerr County, roughly 90 miles northwest of San Antonio.
A big part of what bothers me is how this exchange is normal.
Phaedra shook her head. “If your people mean no offense, they should not speak their thoughts out loud in front of their children, Tesadora. Because it will be their children who come to slaughter us one day, all because of careless words passed down by their elders who meant no harm.

James 3:8-12
but no one can tame the tongue—a restless evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse people, made in the likeness of God. 10 From the same mouth comes a blessing and a curse. My brothers and sisters, this ought not to be so. 11 Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and brackish water? 12 Can a fig tree, my brothers and sisters, yield olives or a grapevine figs? No more can salt water yield fresh.
