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!

I'm pessimistic about a lot of what people say Trump can't do, but he definitely can't do this one.
Edit: that's enough of this community. Y'all are way worse than even the politics and tanky subs on Reddit. Jesus, y'all need some help. Count me as another ally you threw away because you can't see past your own ignorance.
Hey, I see that you're mad about the people responding to you, but it's vital that you understand that the constitution is dead, the republic is over, we have a king now. We're maybe, generously, months from Congress dissolving itself at Trump's request. At this point, the Trump administration can and will do whatever they want; when there are no consequences for violating the law, the law does not exist. It's up to us, the people, to make them second guess and wonder if there will be consequences- in a better scenario, they would know there would be consequences, but I think we're past that.
All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing.
What are you doing then, or are you not a good person?
I'm not mad at all honestly, just disappointed. I would expect honesty and truth from this server, but all I get is doomer BS, insults, and false info. If y'all can't even be honest you're just another r/politics or r/conservative.
Have fun continuing to lose the country. If y'all can't tell the truth and then downvote accurate context y'all are just as bad as MAGA. I want no part in either.
Rule number one of OpSec is if you're gonna do something, don't tell anyone. If they're planning something that the government can/would consider illegal, saying something online is the stupidest thing you can do. Even if it's as innocuous as planning to protest.
I'm layers deep in anonymity. I'm not worried about being found out for what I say.
