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!

Republicans continuing their quest to dilute the impact and meaning of the word treason.
They can try, but we don't have to accept their bullshit rationalizations or excuses or lies, like our Democratic leaders have in the past. These psychopaths think they can make something true just by saying it, no matter how outlandish, but the Dems are the ones who make it true by accepting it.
Stop that. Call them out for their nonsense. When Trump does something like thinking he's buying another 60 days without Congressional approval for his war, because he "declared" the end of military operations, then Threatened to bomb the shit out of them a few hours later, it's the Dems who decide if they are going to grant him his wish, and they always do.
Just Say No. And then start arresting MAGAs who don't comply.
Much like Israel diluting the meaning of antisemitic. Fascist dictatorships tend to do that.
The misses farted on my balls and I shouted, "Treason!"
She looked me dead in the eye and said, "Just like Trump, you have no idea what treason means."
It's treason to say I don't know what treason means! Treason!
