“enemies of democracy?”
The US constantly and persistently butts it’s head into foreign elections with millions of dollars in funding in one hand and
CIA agentsthousands of unmarked weapons useful in a coup in another, and you’re crying about enemies of democracy?The greatest enemies of democracy are the countries who lead the spread of democratic ideals today.

Maybe a restriction to US news that’s reported internationally?

throwing rocks is valid protest
BoJo left a terrible wake
Oops looks like the US FAFO.
