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!

MODERATORS
The idea that they need to have party lines is dumb on both sides. Open this system up, and allow for the voters to hold the rep accountable for misleading them, this whole political speech is ok to be just full on lies when you represent those people it outrageous. Americans should demand better.
Accurate
Fetterman has been called a traitor for a lot longer than that. Ever since the brain damage, he's betrayed everything he was supposedly supporting when elected. That sack of shit can't fuck off fast enough and the moment his ass is out of office I hope and expect he finds he doesn't have a friend in the world.
Words alone have lost all meaning, we need action.
Are they going to do anything about it or say he's a traitor today and then keep working with him like normal the next day? I'm starting to think they support the Republicans with all this inaction.
Because the brain-damaged cunt is
Why doesn't he join MAGA at this point? Why is he still in D party?
If he changes parties then he's just another (R) senator.
His current position as spoiler maximises the amount of attention/power/leverage/bribes he can receive.
Exactly this. Let's not give him all the credit when we have other terrible but less famous boot licker R Senators like John Curtis who also equally cast the deciding vote.
I wonder what they got against him.
His entire personality flipped after he got literal brain damage and he's been voting solidly in the dumbest way possible ever since (so pretty much always whichever way the Republicans are voting). Unlike several others I don't think this is a blackmail thing, I think he literally lost like half his IQ overnight.
