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 US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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 an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

Why does Kash always look like he just figured out his entire life is a lie, and that even his own wife is an Israeli spy?
He looks like he’s in the middle of getting an enema.
and trying to hide his enemerection
Because it’s even worse than that, somehow.
I can't wait for that ugly fucking pug to spend the rest of his life in prison.
Democrats are so useless that they'll let him have his entire term as FBI director instead of fire him if they win the presidency in 2028. In fact they will probably preen about how not firing him is a virtuous example of the return of norms and traditions.
Unfortunately this is a fact, nobody will ever have any consequences for any of this.
Trump's Amerika sounding more and more like Putin's Russia every day.
Sounds? My guy, it is. Please keep up.
"If we don't look for corruption, we won't find it.", says the most corrupt administration ever.
"We're testing for Covid too well"
America's top cop is protecting criminals.
Is criminals. They is the criminals. They is criminals. Crime.
Are...
What is you? Some kind of pirate? Arr!
What do you expect when the president is a convicted felon who hasn't faced any consequences of being convicted as a felon?
Once again, the headline gets twisted to the republican narrative,
Anti-corruption. It's an anti-corruption group. The GOP lawmakers are corrupt.
Corruption for me, never for thee
-Republicans, essentially
For my friends everything, for my enemies the law.
--Oscar R. Benavides
Another president fond of coup d'état and authoritarianism! That was a fun read for me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%93scar_R._Benavides
The only reason to remove organizations to help aid in dealing with corruption is to enable more corruption.
Trump really can't even pretend to hide his true intentions now. Fucking fascist.
Why should he? Nobody's doing anything to stop him.
The rich love him, they aren't going to stop him. The people with higher levels of power stopped us from Trump getting any form of justice.
Hopefully he has a long, slow, painful ending.
I'll settle for any ending at all at this point.
[monkeys paw curls] "Any ending? Bad ending it is!"
I meant what I said, paw!
What are they hiding?
Any fucking thing that they want to....
"Fires agents after they..."
In the article: "it is unclear if the agents were fired or reassigned."
Ffs, why put unverified information in the headline?? They're not doing themselves any favours.
