We get very little world news. That's why as a whole US citizens are largely ignorant of world issues. Or maybe it's the other way around...Because we are so ignorant of the rest of the world, mainstream news doesn't bother.

If Russia invaded the Ukraine I'm not sure we would do anything. Trump would blame it on Biden or Hillary's emails.
