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!

Even in their day jobs they're pretty useless. Bernie is taking his show on the road which I think does more than sitting in on another committee meeting where they demonize minorities and the poor while verbally sucking off Trump and Musk. The Democrats need as many people on their side as possible to either turn the tide in the midterms or (most likely) when the next election is rigged you'll need to have half the nation in the streets. And I don't know the best way to reach them, but most of all you need a sympathetic military.
They need to have half the nation in the streets now.
Rome burns as Nero dances to his mad orchestra. The politicians won't collectively lift a finger. Its rebellion and disobeying all the way down now.
I dont know why people are shocked at Schumer's actions. This is who Democrats have always been. Opposition in rhetoric and complicit in action
Younger people need to be running everywhere. We can't keep relying on these people.
I think you’d be surprised at ‘younger people’ and the things they believe. I’ve seen it first hand, they aren’t as ‘progressive’ as they’ve been made out to be.
I’ve got siblings who call themselves ‘punk’ and ‘anarchists’ and they still both sides Palestine, the police, homeless people, immigrants; everything.
I wouldn’t rely on young people either because they’re still people after all.
Precisely. What we need is AI that's been trained to obey our corporate overlords and maintain the status quo.
People made the AI though, so we can’t trust it either.
Personally I think we should just listen to crows. They’re pretty smart.
