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!

Real answer? It would be impeachable if a progressive did it. Conservatives will not be held accountable by neo-liberals.
The change that would need to happen for conservatives to be held accountable would not be peaceful.
It’s amazing just how obviously corrupt the Supreme Court is and no one seems to have any ability to do anything about it…I guess this means the government in general is corrupt…which means not nothing good for the future.
Conservatives are the cause of nearly every problem our world faces.
Vulnerable people being exploited? The exploiters are always conservatives. Minorities being oppressed? Again, always conservatives. Unmitigated destruction of the environment leading us all to extinction? You got it... Conservatives.
Shitbag "justice" on the take, selling the nation's health and well-being to the highest bidder? Whaddya know?! It's a goddamned sub-human conservative again. What a surprise!
SCOTUS thinks its above the law.

I think that most appointed or elected judges would consider their standing and circumstances before ruling on a matter or even weighing in on a matter before them - a lifetime appointment to the office completely removes the need for that kind of introspection or jurisprudence in the matter before them because I AM JUSTICE (bow before my magnificence, you plebes). This needs to change.
Sheldon Whitehouse knows. Tick tick Thomas and Alito.
yay more corruption. great.
