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 US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
  3. No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
  4. No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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 an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That's all the rules!

After The New York Times reported that the administration had identified 384 foreign-born Americans as targets for denaturalization, Fox News host Will Cain asked Vice President JD Vance in an interview, “Could the law lead you to a place where we’d see accountability in the form of denaturalization or deportation from people who come to this country, legally or illegally, and take advantage of America?” Vance responded that the administration would “absolutely” be looking at how to denaturalize citizens and claimed that under the Biden administration there was a “big blurring of the lines between illegal and legal immigration.”

According to the Immigrant Legal Resource Center, denaturalization has historically been rare. It is typically only used in cases in which there is proof that a person was naturalized when they were not eligible, for example if a person misrepresented or concealed information during the naturalization process that would disqualify them from U.S. citizenship.

But in June 2025, the Trump Department of Justice released a policy memo expanding the administration’s “priorities for denaturalization.” The memo not only outlines new categories of immigrants who could be prioritized for denaturalization, but specifically warns that “the Civil Division retains the discretion to pursue cases outside of these categories as it determines appropriate.”

Can someone tell me how republicans and conservatives are not terrorists?

Like, legitimately, how do they not cause massive amounts of harm and instill terror in large groups of people?

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They're not because they defined terrorists as anything but them.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.cafe 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

We do NOT have to accept their propaganda. The Dems have always allowed the right to define EVERYTHING for decades. WE have to do our own branding, of both our side and theirs, and then drown them out.

Had to turn phone sideways to figure it out, but Cool!

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That edge is looking pretty jagged lol

[–] partofthevoice@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

Sorry, had QA layoffs.

[–] sportsjorts@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Our leadership is Schumer and Jeffries. Two absolute fucking cowards and empty suits that work for Israel not America.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.cafe 2 points 3 months ago

The MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries has been on the stage far too long. It's finally time for them to get the hook.

[–] wolfeh@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 3 months ago

Many are, and they all support them.

[–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 6 points 3 months ago

They literally had a sign up at CPAC saying they were domestic terrorists and here we are.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.cafe 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Stop calling the Republicans. That was the larval stage before they morphed into their final form, MAGA. The term Republican should only be used in a scholarly, historical context.

We need to rebrand the entire conservative movement under MAGA, so at the end, we can abolish MAGA as the genuine active National Security Threat that it is, and sweep up the entire Republican party with it. Conservatives will have to entirely regroup, and rebuild a party from the ground up, under new political/campaign regulations.

They really put the “fa” in “antifa”
