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!

That's what he said about his wife on her hospital bed.
Someone call the FBI! This man just murdered the Speaker of the House!
Every engaged trump supporter I know is perfectly fine with mass deportation because they are too daft to understand it WILL effect them.
It isnt fringe shit and their attempt to split the gop and do damage control is laughable. Y'all created this bull, let it out of the gate, now it's time to ride it or get gored dipshits.
Meanwhile ICE is racially profiling people leaving a grocer in Bakersfield.
Newt, these Nazis are not gonna listen to you now.
Have they declared him RINO yet?
warning shot
Warning shot implies that Gingrich has the ability to do actual damage to Trump if he wanted to, but come on... we all know the only thing this philandering, hypocritical, rage-baiting has-been could ever do damage to is an all-you-can-eat buffet.
In the Post-World War II era, the Republicans became adept at the process of uniting its conservatives, moderates, and liberals while even satisfying the rightwing fringe. The Republicans became a “big tent.”
I believe in the party of the “big tent.” If you’re large and energetic enough, you better wake up each morning and think about conflict management, not conflict resolution. -Newt
This is your own doing, dumbass.
Is he still alive?
He's ambulatory giving the appearance of life. Unclear if that's real or his soulless animated carcass is being driven by pure hate and ignorance.
Newt is the old version of being a Republican nasty. Call it like 3.1 edition. And yes, he updated the dirty tricks and nastiness of the bygone versions.
The qons have iterated through several versions of Republican nastiness and are way beyond that now and most of them probably consider Newt a relic.
The idea that any meda outlet will even mention that children and hardworking families are being rounded up is adorable. The billionaires bought all the networks and newspapers for a reason - so that there'd be no way to embarrass the Great and Powerful Trump.
the American people will turn on him quickly if the news is full of children and hardworking families being rounded up.
Why would they? A significant portion were perfectly fine with those reports last time he was in office.
I really hope I'm right, but I really don't think Trump actually intends on doing this. I honestly think it's more "drain the swamp" bullshit that he says to get people to vote for him and the sycophants that espoused all the shit they'd do in office were performing for a chance to be hired. He has no reason to go through with it since he can't be reelected. If he's going the dictator route then he won't need to be reelected anyway he'll just persist.
I wonder if his brain is functional enough to know the difference between “shit I say for grift” and “shit I say because I want it”..
I guess we’ll know when he either follows through or doesn’t on all of it..
I think they'll go ham on immigrants in blue cities, declare mission accomplished, and leave the migrant workers in red states alone.
Shut the fuck up, it's too late for that.
