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!

He's on a world tour, convincing our allies they need to band together against the US
What the fuck :(
Yeah he went to Munich and gave a speech where he scolded our European allies for criminalizing or de-legitimizing Nazi political parties. Europe immediately started leaning into the EU Army concept.
Great job JD.
Did you see the clapping? Vance's support team were clapping for him, while all the European delegates just stared stone faced.
So bad it's got its own wiki page https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_JD_Vance_speech_at_the_Munich_Security_Conference
Especially this part, which he apparently intended as a "joke":
Thunberg is an activist from Sweden who owns a social media account. Musk is a billionaire from Apartheid South Africa who owns a social media company and actively interferes in German elections.
Needless to say, the joke didn't land.
Cause we think he’s a fuckwit.
Nonono, he is a fuckwit. You guys just recognize it.
History being written before our eyes
JD really trying to show the world what to avoid. Reminds me of my dad. See him and do the opposite.
