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
Only when they're retiring and don't need to keep up the pretense anymore for their moronic voters.
They're just to polish their tarnished image before they retire.
The real question is what the fuck are you going to do about it? Oh yea, nothing. You are going to continue to collect corporate money.
They always find their conscience when they retire. Maybe more of them should retire if that's the case.
Cowards.

“Whoopsie doodle. Anyway,Trump is great isn’t he.”
Hey, Susan Collins was concerned, too. Very concerned. Almost very, very concerned.
So why did you just vote against the war powers resolution to force the withdrawal from Iran, Thom?
Sounds good, we do accept his immediate resignation. Lets crowdfund some janitorial staff to help him pack up his things and carry them to his car. We can probably have that done by end of tommorow.
If he would like a Seppuku knife that can be arranged by tomorrow as well. I suggest he do it on the capital steps. In doing this he will reclaim some small part of his dignity.
a Seppuku knife
Wakizashi. Or a tantou.

No, no, no, a spoon is preferred.
Then why'd you fucking vote for him, jackass? Do you even think before you cast a vote, or do you vote in whatever way will end a hearing fastest?
"Just"?
That's your one and only issue with WhiskeyPete, the experience? And how could you have possibly known at his confirmation that he was inexperienced, except for the fact he was a Faux News presenter for a bunch of years after he was a grunt?
These fuckers should have their names chiselled on a board as Trump supporters in about 6 months for people to remember how they fucked everyone.
Well thanks for nothing, then.
Gosh, I sure do give a shit about his regrets
Too bad. Your job is doing the right thing the first time around. Nott pretending to regret doing the bad thing everyone told you was bad.
So lead an impeachment? Or not that much regret?
Fuck you, Thom Tillis. I have zero respect for you.
Here's a higher res version for your future usage, and another for a rainy day.
Why are we giving this chode the opportunity to try to save some votes?
He's out next January and he's not seeing reelection. Funny how they all find their balls and their voices after they're on their way out.
