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.
- 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.
- 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!

It's funny because it's not even close to as pissed as I am as a constituent, who voted for some of these spineless fucks, and having to watch them "compromise" with things I know beyond all possible measure to be evil beyond words.
You can't govern this way. You can't have half the country be ISIS level fucking lunatics blaming hurricanes on the gays, and then have regular and fairly normal people and say "okay, as a compromise we'll meet in the middle." because these fucking jihadists are still so far right that "meeting in the middle" is somewhere between "what in the actual fuck" and "Jesus fuckin' Christ..."
You can't do it; and you did it anyways. And I'm never going to vote for any one of you ever again. Ever. I'll literally vote for a piece of toast because you've shown me how much you can be trusted.
Right on. Any compromise with a fascist turns everyone involved into fascists. These spineless Democrats are too damned comfortable in their cushy six figure part-time gigs, and need to be reminded who they work for.
I want everyone who voted to approve the appointments of RFK, Hegseth, etc. primaried ASAP.
