It's a take on "USSR," to denote that communist Russia and America have the very same rulers. :cowboy:

This is not real. It is Ai
   I was going to post the same warning. When things appear so fantastic and grandiose, most probably AI forgeries... This is like the Christmas processions in New York...as soon as you see white doves flying gracefully , then disappearing = we have a problem.  But for sure, the Catholic Church provided so much to promote devotions.

 The Feast of the Body of Christ

The Feast of the Body of Christ is celebrated generally by Holy Church on this fifth weekday [Thursday]. Because this food is wondrous, it is therefore of the highest novelty; and this is shown by its fourfold character: namely, verbal power, essential exemption, partial totality, and accidental permanence. Its effect is saving, and therefore of the highest utility, because it is preservative of spiritual life, generative of spiritual joy, and collaborative of spiritual strength. It is also a magnificent banquet, because it is of the highest majesty. Wherefore therein are considered the benefits of the highest love, the prodigies of the highest shepherd, and the astonishing privileges of the highest honor. Therefore, since this sacrament is the viaticuм of our pilgrimage, let us pray that we may be comforted by it as travelers here, so that through this we may attain perpetual joy on earth. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
  Today is the Feast of St. Boniface.

After 1963, I was raised in a city named : St. Boniface. It was the utmost Catholic city in the Western Canada. Saint Boniface was martyred (755 AD.)  for chopping down the pagan god Woden, a majestic oak tree, (widuz in proto-German) Germany. St. Boniface city had an abundance of oak trees.

  My city was very good, morally speaking - maybe a crime now and then, (1 or 2 policemen), but almost every block had some religious house, church, Missions (White Fathers), Catholic hospitals, Catholic nursing homes, Catholic schools, Catholic University, the oldest convent in Western Canada, Grey nuns huge buildings, Oblate Sisters (even larger institution), O.M.I., Seminary, Minor seminary, Huge girls school where I would serve early morning mass, Teaching Brothers,  etc...There was no public debt, but even  had savings!!  as religious institutions provided most social services for FREE.  But then, this is what happened.

I actually saw the painters that morning, painting the eaves in grey. At noo- time break, a cigarette ignited the oil -based paint...!!?? We all left our lunch & house and , and ran to see the fire. Sad day for the City of St. Boniface.
In 1971, The city of Winnipeg amalgamated some adjacent cities, including St. Boniface. Soon after, my dad overheard 2 free Mαs0ns talking; "Now we got 'em..."

  Today Winnipeg is struggling to keep safe.  #1 for murders, syphilis epidemic etc etc., Stores vandalized routinely. Desolate streets where once they were bustling businesses...Highest  budget for the city police in all of Canada, Heavy public debt of course.

St. Boniface, and companions,  pray for us. +

I don't think you need to apologize.  AI generated?  It could be that much of it is genuine.  I found this video that describes how they have a tradition of carpeting the streets with flowers.  It is dubbed in English.  They definitely have a procession there in Toledo the whole week of Corpus Christi, and they are famous for it.  They are also very sophisticated in the floats and biers they have- since they have been doing it so long.  Whether it is AI or not- it gives honor and glory to God- which is the whole point.
