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 headline (if it were to be believed) is meant to comfort us, but instead just reminds me a drunken Fox News anchor is running the department as they're saber-rattling against a major military force.
Hegseth: Trust me
Character from South Park: Mmm’kay
The people who believe anything an ex-Fox News dope says are largely the same people who get their "facts" from the ex-host of Fear Factor.

If the Pentagon doesn’t make war plans, what does it do Pete?
He is not an innovator nor does he provide anything to the US military. Those are the workers whose labor makes him rich
Liar gonna lie
"You should ask one of the problems of things you guys get wrong all the time." Hedseth mumbled as he unsteadily measured out three fingers of Wild Turkey. "Elonsh not here to problems the things. He's here to make sure the problems become silent."
he trails off, slowly swirling his glass, making the ice clank the edges as he mimics the main riff to Thunderstruck under his breath
Riiiiiightrightright. If true, so what? Trump did. And he certainly can't keep his fat mouth shut about state secrets.
Finally, something to believe, said by a main with integrity.
I dropped the sarcasm tag in the basement because my humor was so low; looking for it
