Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Video of the speech here, he really did hit it out of the park:

(Biden at the 1 hour, 31 minute mark, 1 hour, 38 minutes for Biden at the microphone)

He's pissed.

Pissed Joe is the best Joe. After listening to Michael Steele on the way home tonight, I'm optimistic about Joe's chances now.

After the debate performance and the various gaffs he always makes, he's statistically tied. If he keeps hammering Project 2025, the corrupt courts, and what the Trump presidency will do, he can pull this off. He has to keep this up through both debates and do alright through those.

Roll up those sleeves, gird those loins, and educate just what project 2025 will do!

Something I frequently see missing from discussions on Project 2025 is the criminalization of trans people, very clearly calling for their murder. It labels trans people as pornography, pornography as child abuse, and calls for the death penalty for child abusers.

Thank you, I've been raising this alarm for at least two years since Florida came up with this combo wombo. No one believes me.

This is why I'm looking at my options for exit strategies right now. I know I'll be among the first sent to the camps.

there's more than one more?

Vice presidential is one to watch.

If Harris eats whatever sludge he throws up there alive, shows that she's presidential material, and hammers project 2025. Just talk about that and that alone. That one thing and one thing alone will win this.

It's has:

Abandonment of veterans

Subjugation of women

A gigantic expansion of the government via the border patrol and religion

Purposeful weakening of the US dollar

Gigantic gift again to the 1%

Abandonment of our kids via abolishing Dept of Education and feeding them (a huge portion of the population actually depends on this meal especially in red states)

It ticks every goddamn box imaginable lol.

When you start checking those page numbers (if this is the same version that's been circulating) you may find that they don't line up to those plans.
