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!

I mean after tucker spent an entire episode selectively editing out Kanye's antisemitic rants and then trying to portray it as a smear campaign by mainstream media.. why does anyone watch this moron still with the complete knowledge his stories are fully fabricated propaganda.

Tucker is a liar and a fraud. Of course he's also taking Russia money, probably saudi and musk money too.

Trebuchet, straight across the Bering Straight. They can keep what's left of him.

Also Jordan Peterson, I feel like it's weird he's being left out of this discussion considering how many people lap up his bile

Tucker Carlson is the wonder spy Russians dream of eventually sneaking into the US presidency. Donald Trump is just the first step and likely too incompetent to serve their interests well. Frankly, I am surprised he was not Donald Trump's pick for vicepresident.

Thank you for posting this. It's important that government leaders point out influencers who are working directly for Putin.

The only reason this is surprising is because Carlson would be perfectly happy to do it without a paycheck.

This isn't news to anyone paying a modicum of attention, but glad those in power are finally stating the obvious...

[–] [email protected] 28 points 7 months ago

Specifically which influencers are directly working for Putin is new information.

Wild to think that somebody born incredibly wealthy needs to do a lot of bullshit like this in order to make more money. He’s a true piece of shit.

Line must always go up. And of course he wouldn't use his own money to keep being on a show
