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!

Tin foil hat time: he's dying and he's speedrunning as many neocon wishlist items as he can.
He wants to be remembered in the same breath as Reagan, or preferrably his own breath, hence wanting bigass legal and war things. He wants monuments but wants to see them, hence the Trump JFK thing and the tumor ballroom.
He's dying and the death cultists that have infiltrated the government have surrounded him by telling him his salvation lies with burning the world
aw fuck cambodia is after cuba isn't it
I wish. I think it's more of a concern about the midterms.
Not that "Israel First" Schumer would actually stop him...
There has 100% been a noticeable urgency to a whole lot of his shit for a bit now, agreed.
He's gonna live to be 102 because life simply can't be fair
open up a kohl slaw restaurant in DC that uses exclusively day old mayo right by the white house and save us all
call if Sloppy Jeff's and he'll try to eat there every day
That was the plan from the start. Save the foil for the grill. 🙂
I think it's more along the lines of the administration finally realized the american people simply don't care/are apathetic to everything so they've decided to just go full steam ahead. Even the lies have become crappy or they just aren't bothering with lying anymore.
I think the excuse that they need a war to justify calling off elections is unnecessary now and they know it. They're just going to straight up call them off soon and use a dumb lie as reasoning and only use a lie just so they have something to say. "we're at war, no elections" and that'll be that.
The whole thing can be summed up as a toddler testing his limits with a bunch of absentee parents. And the toddler has now finally learned he can get away with anything because his parents are Ned Flanders parents.
