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!

This guy is such a dumb piece of shit
That’s an insult to excrement everywhere. At least it serves a purpose, unlike Tuberville.

If it's stupid and it works, it's still stupid and he’s lucky.
As a non-American, I love his name. I imagine it's what you'd call a racist judge in one of the incest states in a Chevy Chase movie.
Well he is from Alabama so...
His name is a potato
🇷🇺 Russian asset Tommy Tuberville can’t even name the 3 branches of US government.

Remember when Rick Perry couldn't name three government agencies he wanted to eliminate? In a primary debate? That was fucking hilarious. And it tanked his campaign.

Now? Wouldn't matter if it was Trump.
Then Trump put him in charge of the agency he forgot. Because of course he did.
The best part was one of them was the department of Education.
The worst part was another one was the department of Energy, which Trump made him Secretary of during his term.
I had forgotten about this.
Oy vey, Republicans give me migraines
