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!

Yes, Germans should absolutely deliver lots of extra eggs, personally and ballistically, direct to the White House....
I prefer the term "pineapples", but I guess "eggs" is a good code word for the time being.
I do literally mean eggs. I abhor violence, but not petty vandalism
OK, but only the leftover ones past the due date.
Now I really want Germany to send a plane and egg the white house or the statue of liberty or any landmark for that matter. Or all...
Are they going to wash those eggs like we do? Logistically makes no sense...
I mean...it does with H5N1 running around now.
One thing I've been worried about with this egg shortage: aren't they still a major factor in the production of common vaccines?
Like, doesn't the US hold a strategic reserve of millions of eggs to be able to ramp up vaccine production when needed? Is that system still safe?
Eggcellent question. But with an antivaxxer running health, you probably won't need eggs anymore for that.
No egg problem here. But we hopefully don't create one by exporting valuable eggs to the US.
