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!

No one likes that ugly old cunt

Ann Coulter! If you're here, then who's scaring the crows away from our crops?!

It's disturbing that the level of rhetoric that is coming from the right is getting increasingly genocidal.

Damn is that dumb old bitch still rattling off bullshit with that Halloween-adjacent sullen face of hers?

I thought she’d climbed under a rock and died by now.

And they unfortunately clearly didn't kill enough of Ann Coulter's ancestors.

Just her way of saying, "Hey everybody, pay attention to me!"

Ann Coulter has been rancid for at least 20 years, she's the one that said we should carpet bomb Iraqi cities and "let God sort them out" way back in like 2003.

Yeah, she built her entire career on bad press. This story is kind of a comeback for her.

Trump seems to use the same tactic.

Trump is a master of the Dead Cat Maneuver. Basically, if you’re losing an argument and can’t recover, just throw a dead cat on the table. Now everyone is talking about the dead cat, instead of the argument you were just losing. And you can deflect any kinds of “why did you do that” types of accusations back around to the fact that a dead cat is laying on the table, and someone should do something about it.

Trump always has a dead cat in his coat pocket, ready to flop onto the table at a moment’s notice.
