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!

It's astounding that they can be self-aware wolves and members of the face eating leopards at the same time. It's like they all are just playing this game of Russian roulette hoping that they'll be the last one standing, even though the six shooter has six bullets in it. "Surely it'll get jammed or something this time!" splatters brains onto wall
It reminds me of the COVID days where they would be like "surely I won't get COVID and if I do this horse paste will save me" dies from fluid filling their lungs
It has to be absolutely astounding in horrific ways to be a Republican these days. They just keep getting grifted and every time they're like "surely this one won't try to grift me!" has all money taken from them
Just
Wow.You don't drown inside yourself from yourself from covid.
Your lungs rupture and are unable to uptake oxygen. You breathe like always, it just doesn't matter, you can barely get any O².
So you breathe faster. It becomes all you can do. You can't even talk it's so laborious, you just sit there, panting. Your chest on fire.
And then the unthinkable happens. Something youve likely never experienced. The muscles involved in breathing are too tapped out to go on. You tell yourself to breathe, but your body starts not responding. And your breathing slows, your O² levels fall further. You take one last gasp with all your will to live, then pass out and die.
It's lonely; utterly tragic. A terrifying, miserable way to die.
Thank you for your excellent description of the totally not fun at all death that could be awaiting us if we don't get those flu and COVID vaccines.
It's not even 9 AM and I've already had enough Internet for today.
Why doee trump keep hiring these grifters? The poor guy has such bad luck, literally everyone associated with him has turned out to be a liar or a grifter.
If only there was some kind of correlation, some common factor that could help us understand why that is.
You forgot to include Herman Cain Award holders as well.
There is none of that awareness though. I can understand to an extent as it is human nature to instinctively ignore uncomfortable truths that contradict deeply held beliefs, especially if those beliefs are part of your identity, AND maybe even you social standing with your peers.
So yeah. Great targets.
It just shows how deep the conspiracy goes, man!
