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!

MODERATORS
Congressional Switchboard: 202-224-3121 - Contact your representatives, ask them to support H.R. 1155 Articles of Impeachment, all 13 of them. Stop the madman, stop the madness.
It's a noble thought but call your senators is a 1950s response to a modern problem.
There are literal articles of impeachment being brought in Congress (not the Senate), and contacting Representatives en masse does work.
Why are you on here discouraging people from doing something that could actually help? At the very worst, it does nothing.
Let me know when it works out for you.
Buddy, you're talking to like the most pessimistic asshole ever. I have no illusions about how likely this is to work. That doesn't mean I'm going to actively speak out against it. That's just fucking stupid.
FRiend, have you called your Congressional Representatives? H.R. (House Resolution) is appended to Bills in Congress, not Senate. Or are you just part of the modern problem? I'm happy to block trolls if you prefer. Have a nice day.
I don't think that person even knows the difference between the House and the Senate
I appreciate your comment and I wish it were different. I haven't called because there is no use. Hoping our lawmakers save us hasn't been a tenable solution for a long time.
Prithy do tell, what solution(s) do you find tenable? Broodily commenting on the Fediverse, perhaps? smh
Unfortunately there are no viable solutions for us. We had our opportunity and we squandered it and now we're living the consequences.
