Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

TBH, I'm more worried about what the domestic dipshits might do than foreign. Article doesn't give much details on the nature of the threats, though.
Couldn't agree more
NGL with the kind of chatter going on with the domestic dip shits if their God King loses this November it has me a bit nervous.
The long term fallout from him winning is a lot scarier.
If he wins, that'll make me more nervous. This is certainly the most important election of our lifetime.
Same! My office is a voting location. I will be calling in sick Nov 5.
Already lost once and nothing happened. Maybe their hopes getting dashed a second time could inspire something, but there is a lot of loud cowards in their lot.
I wouldn't say nothing happened
They did try something on Jan 6th
It failed (thankfully) but they did try something
We had our Beer Hall Putsch, now I’m waiting for our Reichstag Fire.
And what the billionaire Trump backers don’t realize is that they will be the target of our Night of Long Knives.The puppets of billionaires do not aim to remain so.
Has there even been a terrorist attack in the US since January 6th? Why doesn’t police/TSA etc. profile Maga instead of people of colour?
Because the police are on their side.
Some of those that work forces...
Cause MAGA and Police are generally one in the same. Attend the same rallies, wear the same swastikas and white hoods.
They ain’t going to profile themselves…at least not voluntarily.
I would highly encourage people to look at the motives of the OKC bombing committed by Timothy McVeigh. Gun culture, etc. It's been a long evolution of similar ideas. What's scares me though is these ideas becoming normalized and mainstream. Best exemplified by MAGA embracing the big lie and all the shit related to J6th.
The calls are coming from inside the house!
