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!

Yup… no loyalty.
Name in Epstein Files? Straight to jail.
No. They get a trial, THEN bury the fuckers under the prison.
The trial is important. Being on a list isn't a crime. Being photographed with or knowing someone isn't a crime. Trafficking and sexual abusing children is. I would assume there are people who knew Epstein and are on the list but were/are not traffickers/abusers. It's up to the justice department to prove who was a criminal. I suspect the files weren't released before because there is insufficient evidence. Now they're not released because certain people are worried they might be on the list.
Epstein's book with contact info for friends and acquaintances was released years ago. We already have that. That sparked a bunch of stuff when it came out.
All the hubbub now has nothing to do with innocent people, it is specifically about his client list. AKA the guilty ones he helped. Not just the people he knew.
Shroedinger's Epstein List. It simultaneously was on the AG's desk for review a little while back and also never existed.
Completely agree. Was just trying to be funny. Habeas corpus is a cornerstone of our civilization.
And like, unironically, unsarcastically. Completely seriously. Straight to jail. No bullshit.
Na… due process is important.
