Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

I never thought they would grope MY pussy

[–] Dressedlikeapenguin 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right!? "I'm on of the good ones." and, "They'll never turn on me." Is that what they say to themselves?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Isn't this what the whole tradwife thing is about

When women are taught that sexual assault is not the fault of the men, there’s a false confidence if you don’t feel like you’re a “tease “ or “asking for it.”

“I feel his frozen fingers trail up my thigh,” she writes. “He tilts his chin up. The whites of his eyes look jaundiced. My eyes dart to [Trump adviser] John Eastman, who flashes a leering grin.

He surrounds himself with the best people, truly.

Imagine how often she would have been groped if the coup was successful?

[–] Lemminary 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They all definitely would've couped a feel

“Come here, big tits. Come here, big tits. Your tits belong to me. Give them to me (indiscernible). I want to claim my tits. I want to claim my tits. I want to claim my tits. These are my tits,” Giuliani said in one March 12, 2019, exchange,

“These breasts belong to me. Nobody else can get near these, OK? I don’t care if they’re flirting or they give you business cards. These are mine, you got it?” he continued. “Understand? I’m very fucking possessive. I’ve gone easy on you.”

this Rudy Giulliani? I'm shocked

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

I've seen that second Borat movie. I know more than I want to about "America's Mayor" and how he acts around young women. :/

What better moment to cop a feel than overthrowing your fucking government.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Until now I always believed the silver lining of jan6 was that these beta's would at least not have time or thought for sexual harassment for a few hours

News like this is making it really hard not to turn into a cynic tbh

Didn't he flail around and throw a fit when someone put their hand on his shoulder?

[–] TechyDad 10 points 1 year ago

He accused someone of assaulting him in a supermarket. He claimed that he was hit so hard that he almost fell to the ground and that his shoulder still hurt. I can't find the reference, but I believe he also claimed some sort of "shock wave' after the assault that other people nearby felt.

Then the video was released and it was just a guy patting him gently on the back while passing him by. Definitely not assault. Okay, technically any contact could be considered battery, but this wasn't the life threatening attack that Rudy made it out to be.

The guy was still arrested and tried for assault. He was acquitted and is now suing Rudy.

Rudy's logic: everything is a lawless chaos now, may as well...

Well, Republicans among themselves. What can I say?

I need a shower now. This is disgusting.

Booking that presser at the landscaping Four Seasons, near a dildo store - accident, or on purpose?

From "America's Mayor" to creepy groping grandpa who will be just as famous for playing with his chram on that Borat movie, for trying to mock the notion of - ahem - the media - announcing election outcomes while near a dildo store, and for groping Cassidy Hutchinson during a coup attempt...not that Roodles was ever all that great, but he's a great example of how everything donnie touches turns to shit.
