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.

- 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.

There's a huge group of people on this site that wants to make sure people don't vote democrat in the midterms so republicans can win and continue with their plans.
2024: Now is not the time. If you want to build third party support, then you'll need to do it between presidential elections.
2026: lol you believed that? Wait for a more convenient season.
Where was the party building between 2024 and 2026 though?
After all these years shouldn’t there be something?
MAGA took over the GOP but it’s too hard for leftists?
How much budget do you think these candidates have to start campaigning a year out? We never stopped party building.
MAGA didn't "take over" the GOP. This is who they always were, ever since we failed at Reconstruction. You didn't really believe any of that tea party small government stuff, did you?
They have exactly how much budget as you give them.
How about stop making excuses?
Please go back to the site where Democrats are hailed as heroes you think they are.
This is the fediverse not your backyard circlejerk where we had to be scared of offending yankistani status quo anymore.
Fuck Republicans, Fuck Democrats, FUCK THE USA and anyone who enable violence to minorities, that includes China, Russian, Israel, Iran and other authoritarian regimes.
You had decades and decades to fix your binary election system but anyone who thinks otherwise are the problem? How bloody convenient, huh? Just throw over some blame from days of coldwar and feel smug.
Yeah fuck that noise.
What do you think is the answer for the us midterms that are happening this year?
I’d love to hear you out.
You said, after you defended Biden not arresting Trump for treason.
Do you want presidents to have the power to arrest people?
Do you want them to be judge, jury and executioner?
Look, last I checked the roll of the executive branch in the rule of law was to enforce the laws passed by congress and upheld by the judicial system. It's pretty clear that the entire process of bringing Trump and his ilk to trial was slow walked by the DOJ under Merrick Garland, appointed by Biden. That's not judge, jury, or executioner, it's their roll as the DOJ.
Jack Smith was pretty far into his investigation when the American people collectively decided they didn’t care and voted Trump back into office.
Unfortunately real life isn’t like CSI and most investigations take years much less ones that involve the president without any clear legal precedent and a hostile SCOTUS.
You have become very sober lately Satan. I hope circumstance change enough so that you can go back to shit posting.
I’ve never shitposted.
Hmph. The Republicans are too soft to win this game of FFA.
