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!

“Someone in NY with nothing to lose needs to take care of Merchan,” wrote one commentator on Patriots.Win. “Hopefully he gets met with illegals with a machete,” the post said in reference to illegal immigrants.
Imagine having so much to lose for your opinions, that you hope the people that you've oppressed carry out your sick fantasies.
On Gateway Pundit, one poster suggested shooting liberals after the verdict. “Time to start capping some leftys,” said the post. “This cannot be fixed by voting."
I feel like America is encouraging the wrong attitudes. When it arrests peaceful protestors on Gaza, but won't touch the guys threatening to shoot up "leftys."
How do you even end up in such a state of mind ?
The Gaza Protests were only peaceful from the pro-palestine side. It was an orgy of violence from the Israeli side.
I suspect we'll see this pattern repeat itself, as cops stand shoulder to shoulder with fascists and their sympathizers, in stocastic terrorist campaigns.
Because the guys threatening to shoot up "leftys" are the same ones who would be doing the arresting.
You can't arrest yourself.
This is outrageous.... Other people should riot! Not me, I'm busy watching Fox News and yelling at my wife.
Good then lock them up past November too.
Can they hurry up? I've got a busy weekend ahead and I'd love starting it off by seeing a bunch of morons get pummeled by police.
The cops are more likely to be participating in this one.
Cops beating up cops?
Sign me the fuck up for the pay-per-veiw.
and when you realize you've paid to watch them go all Uvalde on their asses?
🥱
Most MAGATs could not sprint 10 meters without collapsing from a heart attack. Fucking losers still supporting Crying 45.
Sprint, maybe, but what's the range on those electric chairs of theirs?
+1 and Boost...Depends on the weight of the TrumpTurd and how many Chinese made MAGAT flags, creating more drag, are hanging off the chair. Do you think they'll peel off the Walmart sticker after they steal the mobility chair?
I had half a catfish sandwich for breakfast.
Party of Law and Order y'all. Where is my "turns out that was a lie" meme?
George Floyd murdered in the streets by police: "People are out of line and should be jailed for their reaction"
Old white dude gets convicted by a full jury of white color crimes: "BURN IT ALL DOWN!!!1!1"
Perfectly rational folks there.
They should all Jan 6 the courthouse on July 11. It would be nice to get a few thousand more of these shitheads locked up before the election
Well there's no rational reason why anyone would ever vote for that piece of shit in the first place. Their rationality went out the window decades ago.
Makes perfect sense if you're a fascist fellow traveler
I have no idea if you put "white color crimes" by mistake or on purpose, but I'm going to use that, especially related to politics.
I hope they don't block traffic. I don't know if any passed, but a few places were trying to make it legal to run over protestors blocking traffic. That would sure be a shame if they had to find out.

Texas Governor Abbott pardoned a guy who straight up shot a white BLM protester while he was pushing his black wheelchair bound girlfriend.
Said shooter also turned out to be a serial child rapist, but... didn't matter. He got out anyway.
I'll never understand how a serial child rapist is ever "out" to do any further crimes. They shouldn't even be breathing.
When you've got friends in the governor's mansion...
Let's not go down that route, capital punishment is a barbaric mistake from a societal standpoint
I'd settle for keeping them imprisoned.
Florida made that legal.
Oklahoma too. Possibly others as well.
OK is never okay.
They're going to block traffic with their trucks and police are going to protect them.
This is it. The police will absolutely not apply the laws evenly here.
All 30 of trump's gravy seals got me quaking in my boots
Meal Team Six is sitting down and standing by.
Ah yes... The crack shots like Stewart Rhodes doing to his eye what Ralphie did not.
Weird to "call for" a riot. Not generally the type of thing you schedule ahead of time.
They literally do everything wrong...it's why they always lose
"You guys should riot about this. I'm busy retweeting how there should be a riot, but you should go riot. I'll tweet about it if you do"
"Damn...that guy got a blue check? We really should riot."
Of a second I read "redistribution" there and was very surprised.
Trump supporters suddenly turn communist, call for redistribution of wealth and the abolishment of police in unprecedented spelling mistake
