In 1860, St. Louis (city and county) had a population of around 190K and was one of the few majority foreign-born places in the US.
Only around 30% were born in Missouri, with over 1 in 4 people coming from Germany. Solid chunks from Ireland and other US states as well.

'TERRIFYING': Dashcam video shows the moment a Tesla Cybertruck, allegedly operating in self-driving mode, nearly sent a Houston mom and her infant off a bridge before violently crashing into an overpass barrier.

@wormhillknowing@Y40IFRQTTING LMFAOOOOOO what a retard, the flag in my name is literally the richest nation in the americas, and its not america or canada, its bermuda
