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!

Next up: a dead horse head in Trump's bed

How is this not a bigger story?

This is Russia just taunting the US that he is basically the US soon to be commander in chief's proverbial daddy.

But weren't those like professional shots or something for some magazine or whatever?

Kind of defeats the whole owned factor when everyone has already seen them.

It's a threat that they could also air the pee tapes.

Which Is so strange to me. If Trump gets his way with the dictatorships, if that threatened him that much, he could wipe Russia off the map. We already publicly know they have a paper army, and we know Russia never had nearly the number of nukes they claimed, how could anyone who becomes a dictator with the US military be afraid of anything but people close enough to him to kill him?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Russia probably still has enough nukes for MAD. And it's not likely China would tolerate an attack on Russia.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

This may surprise you but they don't really need as many nukes as Russia claims to have on paper. As long as they have enough that work, or hell, even just one, MAD is in play.

“… why has the media chosen to scrutinize my celebration of the human form in a fashion photo shoot? Are we no longer able to appreciate the beauty of the human body?"

Because this is pornography and project 2025 says distributors of porn should be imprisoned. Thats why you’re being scrutinized.
