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!

The Trump administration is a rabid animal that needs to be put down.
MAGA in general.
The ultra wealthy class will team up with the religious radicals to just replace them. The problem won’t be solved that way.
Yeah, he's a particularly malignant tumor, but he's not the underlying cancer.
The country DOES need to remove him in order to survive, but doing so ISN'T enough.
Extends beyond Trump. Republicans in Congress are complicit.
And any aipac funded dems
Yup, look at voting records people, some democrats are a wolf in sheep's clothing, primary them out.
Both sides.
Criticizing dems that won't impeach trump or stop his stupid war isn't "both sides". Fetterman is worse than useless
You do realize non aipac funded dems exist right?
Or were you just posting a self-portrait?
op is literally the most useless type of person
You realize the both sides thing comes from the idea that one side is actually different? I hate these internet cliches because smugly incorrect people will grandstand with them. Whataboutism too. You know the democratic party also gets aipac money right? Democratic Party politicians and democrat media are equally (if not more due to their neoliberal globalist stance) compromised by Israel. Get a spine, if you can’t even break the party line to whisper a mild critique about the milquetoast “””opposition””” that’s been complicit in a genocide for 3 years I have nothing to say to you. Politics is only a sport for you, then.
For the people who think this means Marxists don’t want you to vote — no, we just want you to have some standards and vote for better people. Don’t give a mandate to politicians who profit from genocide.
Hello 14 day old ml account trying to encourage people not to vote!
I’ll wait until the Xi bucks arrive to give you your affirmations. Until then, keep believing. American empire loves you and will NEVER do wrong to the settlers at home.
"Well meth clearly isn't working out because my wife left me and I lost my job and my teeth are falling out, but obviously I can't go back to just alcohol because alcohol is expensive and it makes me sluggish at work. I don't know which is worse!" - you, probably
Idk, I'm sure there's a better analogy out there but you get the point.
It's a 2 week old ml account, it's here to discourage people from voting in the midterm. The usual suspects have been out in force all summer but they're ramping up hard.
Ah good catch
Comparing meth and alcohol? Smartest if you don’t do either. Good job reinforcing his point.
You an alcoholic? Can’t stop chugging on the Clinton’s?
You think spending a little more money and being sluggish at work is just as bad as your wife leaving you, losing your job, and your teeth falling out? Good job reinforcing my point.
Okay, not going to argue with this nonsense. Everything you just mentioned very famously happens to alcoholics.
Every republican and conservative in the USA is an explicit existential threat to humanity and need to be eliminated with extreme prejudice. We need incredibly violent public executions to scare these fascist fucks into never expressing a point of view ever again, and that's only because the logistics of killing them all are unrealistic.
...just the ones in Congress?
