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!

If they broke the law arrest them and charge them. If not, leave them alone.
Seems pretty straight forward.
Yet you call yourself FreedomAdvocate.
Say it with me: randomly generated username.
Also someone being for freedom doesn't mean they don't believe in the rule of law.
You again? Well it’s not illegal and you don’t care about the law because so many of these republicans are breaking it and you don’t care about that.
Oh I’m flattered that you know who I am. I have no idea who you are and don’t intend to even attempt to remember. Rent free baby!
What’s not illegal? Did you even read my post? I said IF THEY BROKE THE LAW ARREST THEM AND CHARGE THEM. What on earth is there to get your knickers in a bunch about in that statement?
Seems you can’t argue the point, but the person instead.
Because the law isn't always right and ICE is a dog shit thing anyway so honestly nah if the representatives broke the law shoot ICE anyway fuck em.
Also I dunno you never heard of you or seen you post but you seem like a smarmy little swine
Well the law is what is legal. If people break the law, they should be charged. This is hardly a new concept. You don’t think lawbreakers should be charged?
The law has no inherent moral value. It requires at the very least democratic legitimacy to do so, and even that is subject to conditions.
Absolutely. I'm not the one saying that the law isn't always right - I'm saying the law is what determines what is legal/illegal.
bootlickers creed
No I don't because if they were this country wouldn't exist.
It is American to resist bullshit laws. The founding fathers made that clear so no you're wrong now sit down and shut up
Ok so murder should be allowed? Break and enter is fine and dandy?
hahahaha fool
I wasn't answering anything bozo.
You presented a foolish fallacy, get called a fool. I made my point it's clear and correct. Google sons of liberty of you're so stupid, I'm not responsible for educating you. I'm not your daddy even if I rail your mother.
You're not wrong, but that idealism assumes that the law is just and supported by due process and the writ of habeus corpus...not the desires of an unchecked tyrant.
We are currently in the latter.
It's very concerning that people like you are unable to foresee the consequences of that.
So when I said:
Where did I say leave out due process?
Also there is no “unchecked tyrant” lol. Literally everything the US President is trying to do is being “checked” and litigated against.
