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!

Same thing as the brown shirts being integrated into SS after Hitler was released from prison
America sprinted into V for Vendetta, and pluralities around the country clap in approval. Wild.
Everyone knows that American cities are hives of scum and villainy. It says so on the news every day.
I'm glad the president is fixing this problem. Now the TV is going to tell me the cities are nice, and that makes me happy.
Why don't you want nice, clean, peaceful cities, like we had when I was a child? Are you a criminal? Are you a Muslim Terrorist? Get out of my county! I hope ICE gets you!
Don’t forget, if you want to talk about equal force, you’ll be banned from this community.
If they're anonymous, how do we know they're federal agents?
Fight like hell, don't let them take you. These mfs are going to get popped eventually.
If you can get paid for doing what you love you'll never work a day in your life.
it's true, I hear they love it so much that they get up early to beat the crowds
I almost guarantee the reason trump pardoned all the J6ers was to recruit them for his gestapo.
Now it’s anonymous federal agents who violently attack people
...and shoot at them if they refuse to allow a mob of masked men who refuse to identify themselves drag them out of their car.
