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!

This is not going to go anywhere. "Because the intelligence community is against me" is not an answer to the charge, "Why did you knowingly keep government secrets, show them to people without clearance, lie about keeping them, and attempt to destroy evidence showing that you knew you had them?"
These lawyers should be glad they have Canon as judge, because any other would be giving them sanctions for what is essentially just a political tirade.
It's a bold move by the narcissist to say "I didn't break the rules, they just didn't get out of my way!"
They probably are against him...since its their job to protect what he stole.
The people you wronged are often adversarial.
She's already been spanked twice by the eleventh circuit and shows no signs of changing her behavior. She'll abuse her position, she'll be overruled and admonished again, rinse and repeat until sometime she just goes a little bit too far and gets in front of the SCOTUS for a discipline hearing.
I hope this isn’t just judicial system fan fiction, but most recent evidence suggests it will be.
Sorry, it’s just been so hard not to be a pessimist about elections and the courts lately.
Fortunately the Court has an image problem now and the SCOTUS is really in to fixing that. I'm hopeful that some examples are made so that people can pat themselves on the back and go home while dreaming of how fair everything is now.
