(Let's Be Clear with Ana Kasparian) Bibi Netanyahu declares shocking new demands of Gaza
A member of the richest group in the United States, the Jewish community, has been stabbed near Central Park in a possible hate crime. An Asian man was stabbed by the same suspect, now apprehended, but that's not important. A Jew was harmed, terrifying the community of Jews in the USA, who number not quite a million of the 341 million. But demographers, Mossad intelligence, CIA cubicle workers, and pricey PR firms are trying to find ways to fluff that number as much as possible by including any and every one that could possibly be the slightest bit related to the group. While there are no recruitment or religious conversion plans afoot to get people to join this exclusive and insular group, the public numbers will be managed to obscure their miniscule size as percentage of the population and disproportionate representation in politics, university admissions and faculty positions, high finance, Hollywood and the entertainment arts, as well as those surrounding and connected to accused and convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Donald Trump.
The USA has about 4% of the world's population, yet it is the third most populous country in the world. It is only smaller than India and China.

Demographics the most important thing
The USA has about 4% of the world's population, yet it is the third most populous country in the world. It is only smaller than India and China.
It is also the most populous nation in the Americas (and there are lots of Americas up and down the continent from South to Central to Meso to North and beyond all the way to the Pole. The USA also has the largest population in the Western Hemisphere.
The estimated population of the USA is 341,784,857 (three hundred and forty-two million in round numbers) as of July 1, 2025, according to the U.S. Census Bureau [1].
The country's population grew by 1.8 million (0.5%) between 2024 and 2025, due to a decline in net international migration [3]. The previous year, the Census Bureau had reported a population increase of 0.98% between 2023 and 2024 [26], near the global population growth rate of 1.03% [27].
These figures include the 50 states and the federal capital, Washington, [which is actually a district of another country that preceded the official establishment of the USA, a place called Columbia, thus earning this special exclusion zone its own kind of Holy See status and the name "D.C."].
This number excludes the 3.6 million residents of five unincorporated U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands) as well as several minor uninhabited island possessions.
By several metrics, including racial and ethnic background, religious affiliation, and percentage of rural and urban divide, the state of Illinois is the most representative of the larger demography of the United States [28].
The population of the USA almost quadrupled during the 20th century, with an average growth rate of about 1.3% a year, from about 76 million in 1900 to 281 million in 2000 [29]. It is estimated to have reached the 200 million mark in 1967, and the 300 million mark on October 17, 2006 [29, 30].
Foreign-born immigration caused the U.S. population to continue its rapid increase, with this population doubling from almost 20 million in 1990 to over 45 million in 2015 [31], representing one-third of the population increase [32]. More
