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!

They confirmed her 81-19 for administrator of the Small Business Administration. That was dumb but they were ok with it then.

She was on the state board of education in Connecticut for a little over a year under their last GOP governor. So I guess that’s some experience at least. Totally qualified to run education for the entire fucking country.

🔥 This is fine. 🔥

The real danger is what Heritage Foundation ghouls will be running the show under her, and the other cabinet members. All these clowns are just the people Trump wants in the room with him. They don’t need to be qualified or do anything but kiss his ass on camera. It’s the Project 2025 deputy-weirdos we should worry about.

Maybe if Trump really doesn't care about project 2025 and just keeps on going with his celebrity cabinet, then maybe they're going to fuck up so bad they're all doing to be ridiculed and Trump could be impeached over some incredible fuck up or fraud.

Haant he been impeached twice already? I don't think he cares

He could still die. Would throw the GOP into a massive internal power struggle for probably another decade or so.

Imagine if he lives and runs write-in campaign, or endorses Gaetz or Lake for '28 and throws the GOP primary into chaos... at this point I'm rooting for him to live out his term since Vance could execute the Project 2025 agenda more competently.
