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!

This is an act of war. Are the Dems still going to pretend the civil war hasn’t already begun?
When the Nazis seized power they didn't kill the liberal nails that didn't poke up.
That's how, for example, Adenauer survived. Famous and just critical enough to be useful after the war but not enough to get killed like all the ones that actually resisted...
And more than willing to work with all the Nazis still in government. Aka most of them.
It's insane that a state is sending troops to govern another state. Well not technically a state, but you get my meaning. This is already a civil war.
It's dress rehearsal for invading what they see as other "blue" cities and to prove their fealty to the the king.
As with most of project2025, the idea is to largely force out the moral and ethical public servants and service members; the ones most likely to care about the rule of law and refuse illegal orders.
Only the most desperate, and fascist bootlickers, will stay long after being treated like shit and made a pawn in these "dress rehearsals".
Maybe it’s the first civil cold war
It's not cold any more with an active invasion.
well, it WAS
What a waste of resources. Anything to not talk about Epstein...
West Virginia, South Carolina, and Ohio...YOU SUCK!
Edit
Thanks for the correction
Ohio also gave us JD Vance
Peter thiel gave us the couch fucker
South Carolina, not North. In something of a miracle given how the rest of the election went, we were able to get a Democratic governor.
Because some dude named big balls got in a scuffle.
Why is this necessary again? Makes no damn sense. Imagine if Biden had deployed California’s national guard to Texas. You’d have a convoy of F-350s through the entire state of MAGA flag waving lunatics with ARs strapped to their chests.
Why is this necessary again?
It's the necessary next step in seizing control of the US. That's why. Everything else is just an excuse to take power.
Maybe it was all planned: hire the most punchable kid in the country, wait about 10 minutes for him to get punched, send in the troops.
Because the mask is slipping. At town halls across the GOP strongholds in the US, people are finally being angry at the GOP.
They're scared.
All the F-350 drivers do that anyways in Texas.
