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 the definition of progress you wet fart.
Why the hell does following the legal framework not count as progress? Why does the thing have to be finished for it to be progress? I guess at work you don’t keep track of your larger projects to show your progress when your boss comes knocking because unless it’s finished it’s not being worked on?
What the hell do you expect to happen in these cases? Do you expect the king president to wave his staff and decree it so?
Democrats held the majority in congress for four years while Obama was in office. I expected them to get it fucking done. No, when someone repeatedly fails to deliver I don't celebrate status updates because I can't trust the status updates.
We’re talking about Biden’s presidency. Stop bringing up Obama. It’s immaterial because Biden wasn’t president, in case you missed that.
It’s happening now. Stop being a baby and screaming about bygones that can’t change. And when it comes around I expect you to eat some fucking crow. Though I’d bet you’ll just pretend you were never such a whiny child about how progress isn’t good enough because it’s not done
They lied before. They lie now. Stop giving them the benefit of the doubt.
It's not even half done. Or a quarter. Or 1% it is 0% done. 0. You are fucking delusional.
It’s in the final stage with the DEA deciding. How many times do I have to say it. It’s almost done. And it has never gotten here before either. Jfc
What do you mean by "almost"? Almost as in it'll be done this year? When?
I’m not a clairvoyant. Government runs slowly but it is happening right now nonetheless.
Still waiting for an answer.
You’ll get your answer when marijuana is rescheduled.
And in the mean time I will continue to point out Democrats have fucked around far too long on this. Stop saying it's "almost" done when you have no clue when it will actually happen. Stop celebrating fucking sound bytes.
Then what do you mean by "almost"? It's "almost" done but it could take another fucking 12 years?
