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!

Trashy horse face bitch. When are we gonna see her taken out?
Hey, I dislike her as much as the next person, but can we please avoid attacking her appearance, using gendered insults, and calling for violence? That's, like, not good for any of us. We can attack her policies and stances instead, the things that matter.
Right, just call her "Margarine 'I can't believe she's not boebert' Green" and be done with it. Let them fight each other, point their anger inwards, etc.
I'd really prefer she just not get reelected.
There was a majority report video talking about how fewer and fewer districts have swing elections locally, so we keep getting crazies

Our system is so bad at removing evil actors who managed to weasel into it, the fantasy of those evil shits getting struck by lightning or having a fatal stroke or some other spontaneous death, feels more and more like the best case scenario that carries even a hint of possibility of actually happening.
The folks wishfully thinking about that aren't necessarily cheering at the possibility of her dying; but rather the possibility of evil being removed from the system that shapes how we live our lives.
Less extreme methods are ideal, but also disappointingly absent from the reality we're stuck in.
I want her out of office. I want her to lose everything she gained from her stupid, evil, ways. I want her to have to make amends to all the people she harmed.
But probably none of that will ever happen. The most likely thing we can hope for is she loses reelection and fades into obscurity. Or she gets hit by a bus or some other freak accident. Honestly I'm surprised she's smart enough to recognize the difference between the "Walk" and "Don't Walk" signs, so maybe that'll happen.
I’d love to find out she had to resort to OnlyFans.
Not that I want to see … uh… that
You could always swill a bottle of ipecac.
It goes about the same way without the psychological scaring,
