I’m over this.

I’ve just been waiting for the mass violence to finally start for months.

I’ve just been waiting for everyone to take to the streets. I’m ready to join them.

It could happen in 10 minutes and I’d walk out of my job to participate.

This cannot stand. The Epstein class spills blood for fun, and we cannot extract a drop of theirs in return?

They’re murdering innocent children and civilians. They’re destroying bridges and air traffic control towers. They’re giving nukes to Saudi Arabia. They’re pushing us into World War 3.

It’s the War crime regime.

Who are we if we never break the rules to stop the people who break all the rules? Who are we if we let them get away with everything?

Who are we?

You may need to get out there, then. Granted, I get that that’s difficult, but organizing protests is how it starts. Don’t get permits, just start organizing.

People are trying to avoid that otherwise Trump will declare martial law, send in troops, and delay elections forever.

Granted he's still planning on doing this but there won't be any kind of plausible denyability to hide behind.

I think those things are inevitable.

Can't wait to see what the excuse is after he does that anyway

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!
