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!

A Nightmare on January 6th Part II 2025 Edition could go likely three ways.
January 6th: Harris wins in November and maggots "appeals" to SCOTUS to overturn Harris win or take away delegates are unsuccessful. Maggots attempt to storm the capital again. Maggot Congresspersons could cause violent coup internally in solidarity with maga insurrectionists leading to #3.
Or
January 6th: Harris wins but maggot election deniers successfully appeal to SCOTUS who either completely overturn a Harris win or take away swing states delegates she initially won due to "fraud" or "discrepancies" to make her below 270. Democrats attempt to storm the capital in protest while the gerrymandered GOP house unanimously votes for trump as president via contingency vote or while votes are counted for Trump after win is overturned. Democrat congresspersons may refuse to certify in protest which could also lead to #3.
Or
January 6th: Harris wins in November and maggots "appeals" to SCOTUS to overturn Harris win or take away delegates are unsuccessful. Maggot congresspersons refuse to certify votes which delays vote counting and certification. Constitutional crisis and or violent coup governmental civil war occurs internally. (Remember the first thing the GOP did when they took power was remove the metal detectors)
