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!

The ~~media~~ DNC is once again repeating the mistakes of 2016
Pokemon go to the polls? No. This time we need you to walk tuah polling place and vote on that thang.
Fucking hell I love the “walk tuah poll.” Damn, I wish I was running my own campaign to use that on right now. I wouldn’t hesitate to use it.
How high are you right now?

Crazy how systems are in place to commodify the meme within a couple weeks. Already merchandise? Damn this sucks now.
Two different groups can be fucking things up in depressingly familiar fashion at once
The DNC and corporate media walk hand in hand... They're both bought and paid for by the same oligarchy
You better tell the fuckin corporate media that then, because they're definitely not holding up their end of the bargain
I would be surprised if more than 5% of even people who pay attention to the media know about the climate bill or about Biden's impact on the economy. Who do you think is responsible for that? The nation's dogcatchers?
I don't mean that the media works FOR the DNC... They both work for the oligarchy... If the oligarchy wanted people to know about the climate bill, the media would shove it down our throats 24/7
Personally I think the oligarchy is currently going for as much chaos as possible, driving towards a major culling of the herd through war and the collapse of western society... But hopefully that's just me
Yep, they think they’ll be safe and just be able to ride it out on their super yachts while we all die over pointless culture war bullshit. They’re probably right.
