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!

As a non american observer I find this article written by a hater more than by someone who really wants to discuss the pros and cons. The writter is visibly pissed off by the host inviting Tulsi as a promised 'leftist', when of course she is more a right-winger.
Politicians standing by nothing are really common, but picking as the starting subjects unions and health care to criticize the military intelligence chief is not a credible start.
Even the first argument related to war, that she criticized Obama's hunt for specific terrorists like Al-Qaeda or ISIS can be completely based. There always seemed to be a small base or Al-Qaeda group located in Yemen's several bombing targets, when we all today know it was an excuse to bomb yemeni dissident factions.
Not that I have great expectations for her or the coming american gvt at all, but still gotta be factual.
Tulsi Gabbard’s ties to secretive cult may explain her perplexing political journey
Hey, that's not fair. She stands for things. Greed, money, power, just to name a few.
By nothing it means she wants to destroy it all so nothing remains.
In the spirit of aloha, of course.
