Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

I have rather a lot of faith in the Minnesotan investigators. Despite federal roadblocks, those in Minnesota are very good people. They really are. They did their very best to do the right thing from the very start, including releasing public records, by order of Governor Tim Walz, that proved federal officers unquestionably committed murder, despite orders direct from ICE to withhold said video footage. All records prove this. One way or another, this is gonna get worked out. Eventually.

But those federal motherfuckers are gonna do everything they can to make it as hard and as long and as painful as possible. Especially as long as Trumpfuck is in office.

And that is yet another crime to be adjudicated. And one day, hopefully soon, these people will answer for their fucking crimes.

The videos are out there. We all saw the murder happen. One day, eventually, justice will come for those motherfuckers.

Lol, imagine still having faith in the American justice system. Are you 12?

[–] tabarnaski@sh.itjust.works 6 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I think the problem right now is not the justice system because the case is still at the investigation phase, and there seems to be a lot of obstruction going on.

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 3 points 19 hours ago

Fair enough. Unfortunately, I don't think much will come of it.

[–] Dnb@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

What else are you going to do?

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 1 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Organize? I dunno, I would have left by now, probably. The fascism alarms have been blaring for more than a decade.

Crazy I see 915 and they wrote the post about having 1000 in a month. Must delete a lot

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 0 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

It's called rounding, lol.

Plus .world mods have a hard time with objective reality, so they remove comments for misinformation, despite them being verifiable fact, like MTG calling Gaza a genocide before AOC.

[–] Dnb@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

So leave which is similar to not voting... Great advice

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 1 points 7 hours ago

Yeah, would you leave Nazi Germany?

[–] WudgieLore@lemmy.zip 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Better off learning not to support a country that doesnt protect its people. U.s.a. is a joke

[–] Dnb@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, leave the country with the largest army to the corrupt and fascist party. I'm sure that would go well long term.

Not to mention it's not easy at all to leave

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 0 points 7 hours ago

You don't beat fascists at the ballot box, as history has shown us again and again.
