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!

Also, when you're installed by the establishment, you're not taking over anything.
Well of course not. They're republiQans. Or, owned by them anyway.
I’m sure they have a rock solid plan to send out more donation emails.
The Titanic chose a new Captain today after the humiliating iceberg incident, insists we have not taken on too much water and pleads for unity aboard the sinking ship.
I mean I'm not going to hold my breath here. Unless I see some actions behind those words, which I have yet to hear, none of this means a damn thing.
The DNC needs to die and make room for a leftist party
The US runs on a two party system, your options are:
- Reform the DNC from the inside
- Accept the status quo
You're welcome to hold that opinion but you can't claim it's supported by history; we've had political parties die and be replaced plenty of times before.
I would argue the conditions necessary for a similar event to the collapse of the Whigs simply do not exist anymore. You're never going to peel enough people off with the level of ideological polarization that we have now.
Oh it’s the “good billionaires” idiot, I bet he’s off doing a funding run while pretending he listens to people.
Well it seems this guy can talk the talk; now it remains to be seen whether he's willing to walk the walk.
Where they will wring their hands and wag their fingers and do jack shit to stop fascism. Spineless pieces of trash.
I guess we'll know pretty quick whether he's on our side or the "good billionaires'" side pretty quickly.
Back to populism to get some wins before bending over for the oligarchs. The DNC seems incapable of learning.
Hey non-voters and third partiers: Go to this and participate.
Or, don't and continue pretending you've got it all figured out.
2028 is going to be here in like 30 seconds. Does everyone have a national organization yet? . . I mean a viable one. One with more than, like, 20 people in each state. No? Well. You . . should get that going then. Or, y'know, use the one that's already here.
2028 is going to be here in like 30 seconds.
It's been two years and it's only February
