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!

Summary

Snoop Dogg faced backlash from fans after performing at the "Crypto Ball," a black-tie event celebrating Donald Trump’s upcoming inauguration.

Snoop, who once criticized Trump in his music and public statements, praised him in 2024 and performed his hit "Nuthin’ but a G Thang" at the $2,500-$5,000 per ticket event hosted by tech moguls.

Fans labeled the performance "embarrassing" and "disrespectful," citing his past anti-Trump sentiments, including a music video and song that mocked Trump during his first term.

Trump was there as well. They probably met many times while raping underage women. Maybe even high fived while doing so.

...y'all realize Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg are two different people...right?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

do you mean Jay-Dog ? Snoop Z ?

[–] David_Eight 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm confused, Snoop or Jay-Z where? The comment says Jay-Z but the article is about Snoop, are they really close? Did Jay-Z also play at this event?

[–] just_another_person -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's only confusing if you're reading other comments. Both Snoop and Jay-Z were implicated on being on Epstein Island, which was essentially a giant human trafficking tape dungeon for underage women.

[–] David_Eight 15 points 1 day ago

No, the initial comment is just confusing. Why is Jay-Z being mentioned in the first place? He's not mentioned in the article that was posted and he wasn't present at the event the article was written about, so what relevance does Jay-Z play in this?
