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.

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.

- 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!"

But something something Hunter Biden
No way?! I don't believe it... the White House would never do such blatant corruption right in front of it's people's stupid faces over and over and over and over and over again. Not a chance...
"Bhut whaddabout....MEN IN WOMEN'S SPORTS"
-- mouthbreather pedonald-humpers
Wow. Naked corruption about which nothing will be done by anyone.
People will complain about it online
something something Extreme left and terrorism something something Democrats are evil something something make America great again.
I think he’s doing all the blatant corruption so openly and so frequently that we’re numb to how wrong it is. And it has worked because I sure as shit am numb.
Not at all corruption when the dumpies do it. But what if Biden had done this? There’d be hell to pay
I saw some video that demonstrated with a chart how innumerate the "BHUTWHUTABAHTHUNTER" people are when they use that lame nonsense about Hunter as a defense of the PEDOnald crime family doing their Art of the Steal to the tune of BILLIONS.
Take the most extreme claim of Hunter - about $30 million supposedly made by cashing in on his name - stack that up to 4 billion on a graph....it was something like this.
Really?!? Oh right got to invest before the collapse.
They are being absolutely brazen in their thievery.
This supposed "administration" is one gigantic middle finger to all of America. The mouthbreathers that still support him just don't realize that middle finger is aimed at them, as well.
I bet most redcaps don't figure out the art of the steal even if/when Pumpkinhead and his crime family set themselves up as the world's bank via their cryptoscam and grift billions more for perpetuity until they are finally pried out of that position (if ever):
