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!

Well, hamas is recognised as a terrorist organisation, the US is already probably arresting or deporting known members.
That’s what I thought, but I wasn’t sure if the policy was as explicit as something like “expel them all”. Maybe it is though.
I’m guessing it’s the same policy as with any other terror group. Prosecute them, jail them if guilty*

It's cute how it actually tries to let them spy on adjacent countries, up to 100mi past the border (or, most of the habitable part of Canada).
As if they weren’t already spying on every nation they feel like it by simply outsourcing that to google
FTA:
That's a fucking dick move
Thanks!
"Are you now or have you ever been in a terrorist organization"
They'd never think to lie right? Like, that'd be illegal something terrorists are very concerned about, and yet for some reason that question is on immigration, security clearance and gun sale background checks.
I'm quite sure there's a heightened background investigation for immigrants, but I like to make fun of the existence of that question.
Wildly speculating but... Having been a member of a terrorist organization may not itself be illegal. But submitting false sworn statements could be.
Well submitting false sworn statements definitely is illegal so you may have a point. Especially since it includes the "have you ever" part, instead of just currently.
So.... you may think it's stupid, and lets be honest, anyone who answers "yes' is pretty freaking stupid.
but there are plenty of absolutely dumb-as-shit people. Why not leave it in there and let some of them sort themselves out.
Oh yeah sure, it doesn't hurt anything to leave it in lol
Probably end up with a lot of dumb fucks going "Hell Yeah I am, Brother! Trump 2024!"
CPAC: "We are all domestic terrorists"
The only time Republicans have ever spoken the truth.
Who was it who said "listen to conservatives: they'll tell you who they are" ?
We even HAVE a McCarthy.
