Sounds like conservapedia, but that looks like this:

I tried the "search within pages", but it just gave me the worst idea ever, followed by articles not about the US:

The pūteketeke is still the Bird of the Century, though. Can't take that away from it for the next 99 years or however many humanity has left 😁

That's what the French chef said when he discovered that his Roquefort had been replaced with Gorgonzola!

Last two flags are in the wrong order. Not just chronologically, but with regards to causation too: the Nazis were heavily influenced by American racists.

An argument could be made for the American traitor flag to be on both sides of the swastika, but that would be pretty messy..

A Stars & Stripes with 48 stars would probably be too subtle..

Since Mandela took power in 1994, there hasn't been entirely friendly relations between SA and IS.

Weird how the government of a former freedom fighter who was imprisoned for 27 years by an Apartheid regime wouldn't be very friendly with the friends of that Apartheid regime, another Apartheid regime!

Treasury recovers $1.3 billion in unpaid taxes from high-wealth tax dodgers (apnews.com)

The IRS has collected $1.3 billion from high-wealth tax dodgers since last fall, the agency announced Friday, crediting spending that has ramped up collection enforcement through President Joe Biden’s signature climate, health care and tax package signed into law in 2022.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel traveled to Austin, Texas, to tour an IRS campus and announce the latest milestone in tax collections as Republicans warn of big future budget cuts for the tax agency if they take over the White House and Congress.

Yellen said in a speech in Austin that in 2019, the top one percent of wealthy Americans owed more than one-fifth of all unpaid taxes, “leaving ordinary Americans to shoulder the burden.”

I also don't appreciate that apparently my opinion doesn't matter, since "I'm not a resident of the EU" is a required field.

Which it of course is because they want to get past common sense EU regulations restricting their ability to infest people's devices with malware.
