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!

How much you want to bet that Congress awards it to him anyway since Republicans control all of Congress? That would be a royal "f*ck you" to active, former, and deceased service members everywhere. Could not imagine a more clear basis for outrage from Americans everywhere than that.
Remember when he tore down part of the white house for essentially no reason? That was a way bigger insult to the nation
Who cares if he steals a little piece of metal? He does that all the time, he loves stealing tokens and trophies. No one with half a brain would ever be confused and believe that he somehow earned the FIFA trophy and congressional medal of Honor, and a purple heart and whatever else he wants to stick on a shelf
It's embarrassing, for both him and the county, but it's entirely meaningless. It's just a piece of metal if you don't earn it
I think I see where the problem lies.
A Soldier Will Fight Long and Hard for a Bit of Colored Ribbon - potentially Napoleon, most likely in French.
The mental gymnastics really wouldn't be that hard to do.
Commander and Chief of the military>saved us from drugs coming from South America>won the war in Iran 3 times in a year>profit
It's actually 'Commander in Chief', as in 'Chief among the Commanders'.
They are talking about renaming a ship too, maybe an aircraft carrier even, named after this black cook in pearl harbour that did all this heroism stuff, for the president too.
Will congress be that craven and dishonorable? Absolutely I would agree, in a lame duck session, not before midterms.
I hope when they rename it Iran blows the fuck out of it and scraps it for memorial coins.
