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!

Pretty typical of a new pool to bloom algae when filled. You have to dump a bunch of chlorine or bromine in to prevent it. A competent company that does large pool/ponds would have a plan to deal with it.
Given the sheer surface area of that pool it's gotta be a nightmare to maintain too. Sunlight cripples chlorine.
Wasn't it just DonOLD's pool guy given a no-bid contract at a much higher than average profitability rate?
Every day I log onto Lemmy, I see liberals coming up with a new nickname for Trump.
Part of me is annoyed because they're sometimes so esoteric I have to decode them.
But another part of me is impressed at the variety and creativity

Excuse you.
Yeah, that's just weird. Why can't they call him something respectable like "daddy" like the Republicans do? That's totally not super weird or creepy to the point of being disturbing!
Lmao, do you think I'm a chud or something? I don't like liberals because I'm one of those spooky Tankies y'all are so afraid of. Get with the program
Yes.
Sigh, we live in the shittiest timeline.
