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!

That means he was 52, so it's not like someone who moved when they were 12...
He became American because America had lax enough regulations for him to take advantage of. Broken systems are ripe for exploitation.
Sure, Reagan destroyed it to the cheers of the degenerate fascists. I was here, I was 8.
Yes, the fascists swep under the rug in the civil war. Surprise, they didn't magically disappear.
Yes, I have been to the south, thanks.
So...thanks America!!!
The story is about Fox...
For the entire existence of Fox news, R Murdoch has been American.
I feel that perhaps his personality and life were shaped by events prior to when he was 52.
Yes, there's evil capitalists everywhere, but America gives them the means to thrive.
australia does also, so okay.
Then why did they go to America? To not use your lax system with access to hundreds of millions more people to exploit to make them billionaires?
I’m not sure what that question entirely means, but yes. The population of australia is about half of merely California.
