For those of you who aren't on Facebook, I'm sorry if you can't see this vomitus-inducing video,

the latest one in a series sent out weekly to US Department of Interior employees. https://www.facebook.com/karialyssaP/videos/2813663455489241

I did find the text of the video at reddit:

"Happy Birthday America! Today, we celebrate 249 YEARS of American liberty, freedom, and strength and we're doing it under the fearless leadership of President Donald J. Trump, who reminds us every day what true patriotism looks like as he works tirelessly to Make America Great Again! This administration doesn't just wave the flag. We defend it. We honor it. And we respect the red, white, and blue. Today, as we reflect on a quarter-millennium of freedom, we honor the great leaders, past and present, who secured the liberties that we enjoy today, including President Donald Trump as he leads the most iconic administration in our country's history. President Trump's revolutionary America First Agenda is grounded in protecting our Constitutional freedoms, defending our homeland, and securing a better future for all Americans. To kick off the celebrations, Secretary Doug Burgum visited the Statue of Liberty, climbing into the torch of the statue which stands in New York City as a symbol of Liberty and Justice. The Secretary was escorted by our beloved park police, who are working around the clock to ensure our nation's treasured parks nation remains safe. And guess what, America? We're now just one year away from our 250th birthday, and the Trump administration is already planning a once-in-a-generation celebration, which include plans for an iconic firework show at Mt. Rushmore. So this Independence Day, join us in celebrating the greatest country on Earth, the United States of America, the MAGA way - with the flag flown high, saluting our brave military service members, past, present and future, with your American spirit on full display."

I presume the most recent one will show up at the Department of Interior youtube channel shortly.

North Korea, hold our beers!

I'd be barfing my guts out if this propaganda popped up on my feed.

display of propaganda I have ever seen produced by the government of a western democracy.
