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!

Apparently the 16 year old, whom she punched several times in the face, was only trying to separate the fight she was having with her partner.
This "sweetheart" shouldn't work in any institution associated with children.
Tbf she raised almost a million dollars for her campaign, so she has more reach and access to wealth than any random person
Hence, OP wrote "asshole." I presume.
Unsurprising - she lives in Doylestown according to the article.
She has a PAC called "keep kids in school" while holding keggers for teens and beating the shit out of them.
That needs to hit the news so her political career stops suddenly or at least is at heavily encumbered.
Remember this?
Montana representative-elect Greg Gianforte pleaded guilty Monday to a charge of misdemeanor assault after body-slamming a reporter from The Guardian on the eve of Gianforte's election to the U.S. House.
Maybe that's how she scores points with her base.
Just disgusts me that didn't affect his campaign.
If anything, it enhanced it.
I appreciate now, how we are basically back to 1800s in terms of elected officials shennaniganery. No need to politically outmaneuver your opponent when you can just beat the shit out of them or rile up your voter base to potentially assassinate them.
We had that idiot who was handed a family business from his dad trying to fight a union leader that had to be stopped by Bernie Sanders of all people, we've got the MAGA clown parade elected officials doing stochastic terrorism against their fellow Congresspeople...
I am now awaiting something like Jackson beating his opponent with his cane to just recur.
Maybe Matt Gaetz will impale Nancy Pelosi with an American flag sort of like in the 'Nobody Speak' music video.
Oh lord I forgot about this. We truly live in the dumbest possible timeline.
Exactly. One Senator formally challenged a union president, who was there to testify, to a fist fight, and Bernie Sanders had to tell him to sit the fuck down. That guy even brought up the Caning of Charles Sumner, like he thought that made what he did okay.
If you're a good person please consider running for office. I am so tired of these con artists robbing the coffers and acting like fools
Want to help I like run for office in Oklahoma but no idea how to get the funds to start a campaign?
How good are you at beer pong and basic degeneracy?
Not very good why do I need those skills to be a politician?
Lady was giving those kids Malibu…
Schillinger 2024: Your kids aren’t safe at school! Leave ‘em with me, I’ll get ‘em liquored up & stinkin’ like a strip club instead!
