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!

Ya I’m sure the democrats wanted Trump to delay his trials and become president to secure the safety for their children. Because that’s what lizard people do when the earth is flat.

You continue to insist to have ineffective losers represent you. Trump has conned the maga uninformed and undereducated, you have been swindled by the same elite insider trading, healthcare denying, in bed with corporations and military complex. Because your feelings. Facts hunter Biden was pardoned, facts none of the damage done by any administration will effect any of these politicians, facts their families will be the last and least affected by climate change. Have fun licking boots and struggling to pay for groceries.

So you’re one of those “both sides are the same” bad actors.

I haven’t insisted on anything just calling out a bad faith argument. That seems to get you worked up. Especially when I called out your ridiculous conspiracy theory.

There is no politics without corporate influence anywhere in the world. Even without citizens united businesses will try to influence government. Same with military. Trump is filling every office position with billionaires and foreign actors and your trying to pretend both sides are the same. If you wouldn’t pardon your own son in the same situation then you’re a shitty father. Any damage done by any administrations will effect all administrations. Democrats have passed climate change legislation while the GOP denies it’s existence and you claim they’re the same. Inflation has been trending down for the past few years but will now start going up again because of tariffs thanks to Trump. But you claim both sides are the same in bad faith.

Sounds like you drank the qanon kool-aid.

You absolute clown, you unimaginative, brainwashed, propaganda spewing, sound byte parrot. You absolutely deserve everything and all that will happen to you. At least you got to choose the color of rope used to hang you. Blue is a good color. Good day to you.
