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!

LOL! Remember how the cons were clutching their fucking pearls over discussions about limiting the size of the Big Gulp?
The same people that were Karening the fuck out over masks, social distancing and remote work during a - checks notes - a pandemic are going to let the "party of small government" police their Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts drinks now? 🤣
"It's only ok when we do it."
It's like #1 on the list of "conservative" values.
Their hypocrisy infuriates me... Words are just weapons to them.
The same people absolutely queening out over Michelle Obama suggesting school lunches be healthier and that kids get off the couch and that people try gardening to get fresh vegetables are now down to clown with the "maha" stuff.
"Mah bawdy, mah chuhyce! Ha ha libz yew ahr soh owned! See wut uh did there?!"
-- Republicans, unless a Republican says it, then they line up like good drones to nod and clap like seals.
Yeah but Michelle Obama is black and got all uppity
I love when interviewers ‘accidentally’ attribute quotes to the other party, get Repubs to disagree/agree and the suddenly say ‘oops that was this person’ and watch them have to backtrack hard
