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!

The new version of "swatting": "Magatting". Just tell ICE/Secret Service etc someone you don't like said something mean about Trump.
Red scare 3.0
It took Republicans a solid 6 or 7 years to catch up to Eric Cartman.
Sweetie there are a lot more citizens threatening that right now everywhere in this country
I just wish for it. I'm not killing anyone because I don't live in a movie and know my limits. If I want to kill people I'll join law enforcement and shoot unarmed mentally ill people inside their home.
I'm kind of really tired of liberal news outlets doing this. Let me make it clear for those of you in the back of the room: THEY DON'T CARE IF YOU CATCH THEM LYING.
They don't care about being hypocrites. Calling them out on it and shaming will not work on the shameless.
It's a method of normalization.
You keep pushing the message .... false, lie, exaggeration, rumor, suggestion, whatever
Keep repeating and pushing the idea of immigrant terrorists and everyone will talk about it.
Until at one point everyone will believe it.
“Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth”, is a law of propaganda attributed to the Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels.
This is so true and so depressing
Plenty of people have threatened to kill Trump. I see threats every day. They say everyone is doing it.
The best people in fact.
Of course it fell apart. All these people do is lie, cheat, steal, and so on...
As part of the investigation, officials had contacted Morales Reyes and asked for a handwriting sample and concluded his handwriting and the threatening letter didn’t match and that the threat was not credible, the person said. It’s not clear why Homeland Security officials still decided to send a release making that claim.
What's "not clear" about it? They sent out a press release making that claim because they're dishonest sacks of shit with an agenda, and that claim served their agenda.
It's not complicated or even surprising - it's just standard operatong procedure for the Trump administration.
The only people who have tried to kill Trump were born here
lol it was his wife I’d bet.
Fell apart because people could not find a legit way to donate to the cause?
There's ya story yall. Elon said he gon' kill that white man.
African American crime.
Yes, but will "the news" call bullshit, or will they continue to normalize the false information we're being bombarded with?
They're even taking the jobs of imaginary would-be assassins 😔
We all know that's Melania's plan.
Scumbags want to make people to become racists again.
Grifters lie. Water is wet.
So what? We have plenty on non-immigrants that want him dead. His own diet wants him dead. This is a nothing burger.
