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!

It has no bearing on the case. The fuck you on about?
People who are intimately involved have a tendency to make compromised decisions involving the other person. It isn't just about doing the right thing, it is about looking like you are doing the right thing too.
He was already removed. So again, it had no bearing on the case.
As far as we know. That doesn’t mean it won’t have a bearing on an appeal or anything else that might happen. Glad you clearly know all and the future though.
It clearly doesn't lol but you keep thinking that.

Look at that. Still having an impact. You are incorrect.
Doesn't mean she'll be kicked off dumbass.
I never stated that. And clear you are losing the argument as you are resorting to name calling.
Lol it doesn't but whatever helps you sleep at night.
You are obviously not taking input, why participate?
Wtf is that even supposed to mean?
I can repeat it if you like...
Even if they don't have sex, people who work closely together inevitably become intimate.
Judgement can be clouded for all kinds of reasons. That's also unavoidable in any complex undertaking without rising to the level of malfeasance or negligence.
Yes. So in such a high profile case. Why? That’s idiotic.
They stopped having sex before the indictment. What's idiotic is people thinking that two people who ever had sex before shouldn't work together.
It clouds the judgment of their character. That gives trump an opening… aka dumb AF on their part.
