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!

Wait… wasn't there a huge invasion of South American immigrants about to hit our border in 2020? What ever happened to them? And what about the roving bands of Antifa attacking small towns?
These fucking idiots believe whatever the fuck is fed to them. They don't remember all the times that info was wrong and realign. That's why they're dangerous: they aren't operating on even the appearance of facts.
They have the memories of goldfish. Remember Jade Helm, where supposedly Democrats were going to put Republicans in Walmarts converted into concentration camps? When that didn't happen, did all those MAGA idiots who believed it say, "huh. Maybe I should rethink things?" No, they just forgot it was even a thing they said was going to happen within a day or two.
I saw a cop bodycam video with someone who was talking about (jade jelm) that during the time it was supposedly happening / about to happen. Absolutely stunning.
The guy who chased an officer in the Capitol on J6 (Douglas Jensen) reportedly kept asking FBI agents if they knew who Q was or if they were in on the op. I think he was confused why they weren't a part of it or some such drivel. These people mostly have the lowest media literacy and ability to work through logic. They are 100% id-driven. The small amount that think rationally run the grift at the top, such as Bannon and that ilk.
I didn't know anything about JH until sometime last year. Here's from Wikipedia:
Seriously, who the fuck can believe this stupid shit? We're gonna have a foreign power come take your guns? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
Conservatives have only enough thought to register emotions. No ability to question a narrative.
Invade Texas... Lol they wish. What a victim complex these assholes have
I guy I worked with says he stayed up all night holding a loaded AR when "BLM protesters were going to break into houses in small towns across America" and then said it was a good thing he did it... after absolutely nothing happened... anywhere...
I am so confused about these people sometimes. It's like how they simultaneously say that the January 6th insurrectionists were all secretly Antifa but also they're Trump-loving patriots who are being treated unfairly by the courts.
Sounds a bit like my dog. When she sees another dog being walked past the house, she makes an alarm bark to let me know there is an invader coming. Then , due solely to her alarm (and not at all because they're just on a walk), the interloper moved along, and called off their imminent invasion. "See", my dog barks at me. "You're lucky I'm here to protect you from that bitch...."
It's like they didn't expect any of these losers to actually get off their asses and see for themselves that it's bullshit. Whoops.
Not that it matters for the rest of them. They're too far gone.
Ah yes, the infamous iMmIgRaNt CaRaVaN.
They are walking here. Imagine for a second that you had to walk to the store...be honest, we're Americans, it would take years. You would probably never make it back home if it was winter, at night or full summer. It's a trek. Now imagine walking from guatemala (prenounced watemalla). They are coming 😁. And when they get here, they're going to dangerously tired. So dangerous in fact that we just gotta send people there.... To help.
Well obviously it was stopped before it could be a problem! /s
Genuinely reminds me of the Orc Army led by Dragons in Gothic 2.
