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.

We got to vote these corrupt politicians out in 2026! If we can get enough Democrats into office then that means Trump can be impeached.
I can't tell if you're joking. Your comment is making me have 2017 flashbacks

Isn't that like several hundred thousands of employees? Suddenly unemployment will be sky high and you think health care CEOs are going to be looking over their shoulders now? Just wait. Mike will need his own presidential security detail to just look outside.
There are roughly 2 million US government employees. So 1.5 million people unemployed? Which wouldn't send unemployment sky high, but pretty high.
1.5 million people who know how the system works hell bent on fucking over one shitty human.
1.5 million in direct unemployment, but consider the knock on unemployment for all the services those workers won't need. Coffee shops, dry cleaners, parking lots, Uber/Lift drivers, childcare, etc. Employed people pay for services while employed that are directly tied to that employment and those businesses will also layoff their workers when these jobs disappear

Ax thyself firstly foul hypocrit
start with yourself, cunt.
Calling him a cunt is an insult to cunts.
Depth, warmth, etc
Ah yes the old "government so small they can drown it in a bathtub" plan. They want all this cut. But also want to police abortion and trans people. Small but only in the areas they want.

If they actually start doing this, none of them will be in office in 4 years.
I don't think they're planning to have elections again...
I agree. I didn't mean they would be voted out.
You're probably waiting for someone smart to do something though, right? You can't. Family job etc... not worth the risk?

It just blows my mind how evil these people are. They put all this destructive effort into everything they can think of 24/7, with little to no creation of anything with benefits.
They're little evil toddlers just smashing everything they can get thier mitts on.
Cool. So, like the ATF, the DEA, the IRS, and the NSA?
What, not those agencies? Curious.
Why the fuck would you want the IRS to get the axe? They get shat on by the GOP for the express purpose of starving them, so they can't go after the wealthy

Americans better learn compassion. Our survival depends on it.
Americans, as a whole, have actively rejected compassion. Survival now depends on cunning.

Republicans wanted Milei style austerity and American voters wanted Republicans.
We all get what America voted for and good luck with that economy there.
The wrong people will die due to how callous, and/or stupid the trump administration will be.
Some of the right people, but mostly none of the people who made the bad and wrong choices
I don't know, man. There are a LOT of guns floating around out there to be making people desperate.
Just ask the United Healthcare CEO about making decisions that affect people's lives negatively.
Oh wait.....
From your lips to God's ears. As they say
You know how people look back at history and go "the situation back then wasn't perfect, but the idiotic way some in power tried to fix it just made it soooo much worse!"...
Yeah, this is the next step up in the current cycle of this. In centuries to come anyone who is ~~about~~ able to reflect on things will not look at Johnson et al at all favorably.
They're not trying to fix anything, just keep people down while they rape and plunder.
in the centuries to come, the beings that replace humans won't know who the fuck mike johnson was.
My original comment was supposed to say 'able' not 'about'. Because I had the same thought as you.
