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!

What kind of weirdo gets mad when they get what they say they want?
A narcissist who wants to take the credit for it
Never forget that the border deal that Trump ordered senate Republicans to veto was one of the most comprehensive policy proposals in decades
The repubs complain about the border, a border bill comes up. Republicans refuse to pass it.
Mitch McConnell tables a bill.
Dems support it
Mitch McConnel fillibusters own bill
MAGAs would never work against their own country or be a shill for Putin, oh,,wait!
I once worked for an idiot who was a little high strung, and who responded to anything unexpected by getting angry. This exchange actually happened:
Other employee: "Hey boss, the bank called, they made a mistake, you actually have $100 more than you thought you had."
Boss: "WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THAT?"
Hey I'm that idiot right now. I think I need anger management.
Weirdo that wanted them to do it when he's president, so he can say he did it.
They were supposed to wait until after he's elected to do it so he can take credit for it.
