Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Shame shame. Seems like Jesus has really turned his back on y'all.

How does one get to the point where literally their entire existence revolves a conman, grifter, liar, and now convicted felon?

Probably for them, it's not unlike being a professional Star Trek fan. They get to travel around the country and meet people, make some money, and have a few interesting stories to tell. Owning the libs is a bonus.

"For now, the flag and Trump merchandise sales are on hold, as the duo plans to ask for donations to repair the vehicle.

“Just like that, we’re homeless,” sighed Grenata."

I'm sure the Donald will get right on that for them...

Also... you can buy a bus for $15,000?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 months ago

A few years ago I was looking into buying a old bus and building a eurocruiser out of it. Had plans for putting a sauna in the back lol.. anyway, you could get a volvo or a scania bus from the 1980s or early 1990s for a few thousand euros. Those things will have a million billion kilometers on the dial but they will do another million quite easily if needed.

She added that only recently it became eligible to be fully insured, less than 48 hours before the incident.

That's quite the coincidence.....

[–] [email protected] 67 points 5 months ago (6 children)

In many states, driving a vehicle uninsured is a crime. They're admitting they've been committing this crime for quite awhile?

Also, most people driving buses require a CDL (Commercial Drivers License). Is this one of those vehicles? Do they have the proper license?

Now, the duo has no clue what the future holds for them.

Its a good thing their candidate supports a strong social safety net, so they can still know their basic needs are taken car of, right? Right?!

For now, the flag and Trump merchandise sales are on hold, as the duo plans to ask for donations to repair the vehicle.

So they're supporters of Socialism now? Where are their bootstraps in times like this?
