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!

That prize used to mean something and now it's irreversibly tarnished.
That's what you get when you buy your gold from Ea-Nasir Consolidated Metals Inc.
I thought they were special military operations
Freedom Actions is the correct terminology 👍
He really doesn't want a base of voters, does he?
At this point, it is likely he doesn’t need them anymore, and around a third will support him at any cost anyway.
Apparently not.
I mean, imagine an ~~Iranian~~ American regime who, instead of spending billions of dollars supporting ~~terrorist groups~~ Israel and building up all of these weapons, had invested that money into ~~Iran~~ America, for the people of ~~Iran~~ America, so they wouldn’t have ~~water~~ healthcare shortages, so their economies would provide opportunities for an incredible people.

House of Cards has a season where Kevin Spacey starts a fucking war to cement his position. It's literally playing out in the white house right now and I can't fathom why more conservatives aren't pissed about this.
You don't hear more conservatives complaining about this because half of them are blacked out from how hard bombing foreigners makes them, and the other half are too busy jerking it in their truck to the thought of liberals getting """owned""" at the gas pump. We live in a reality that is a parody of itself.
I think that you give them too much credit. Most are just too stupid to know what's going on.
I didn't say they weren't stupid. What I ascribed to them and their stupidity are not mutually exclusive.
More like cement shoes, in this case.
It’s not cementing his position though.
How about we cut off Trump's access to healthcare? See how long he lasts.
I'm pretty sure he already stays alive only by killing a Unicorn and drinking its blood every so often.
Hey now, Voldemort did that because he was getting revenge on his bullies. The books clearly demonstrated that Harry's dad was a total dick to Tom Riddle. Unicorns died because Hogwarts had terrible anti-bullying policies. It's like the author is pro-bullying or something.
I feel compelled to point out that it was Snape Harry's dad bullied, not Tom Riddle.
My bad. I haven't touched any of those books in ages. The ones on my bookshelf probably have mold growing on them by now. It hasn't turned me into a TERF yet so it hasn't spread to the walls of my house.
Burn in hell, you piece of shit
Don't forget the 100% tarrifs on name brand prescription drugs...
My migraine medicine cost went from $5/month to $40/month. I've taken on more expenses and my student loan payments start in two months. If my medicine costs more than it does, I can't afford it.
In other news, Taco is a flaming asshole.
I thought we already "won" weeks ago?
WTF is this about paying more for this clusterfuck? To the tune of cutting off services that so many rely on?
As long as Trump is just going to fabricate stuff and lie to our faces, maybe next time he can just invent the entire war effort itself and not actually drop a single bomb. “We’ve destroyed China. No one’s ever seen anything like it. Totally obliterated.”
That wouldn't make all his billionaire goons money though
People keep talking about the Trump Files so now they gotta pay for more distractions!!
“Humanity on a cross of iron”
Fuck off and die you ass crack.
Guess it's time to shut down the military if you can't afford it and keep using it for class warfare against the working class majority of humanity
Waiting for the old white Republicans to justify this when they are all on Medicaid.
At what point will this piece of shit be [ Removed by Reddit ] ? It's really only a matter of time with as many people as he's pissing off. The unhinged republican voters are the most dangerous, and he's getting awfully close to pissing them off.
You're not on reddit here, you can say it.
No he can't; it would violate the lemmy.world ToS. Maybe user accounts on other instances posting in communities in other instances could do it, but not that user posting here.
why say it? the information is still shared
America first! Right after everything else.
At some point, even the Republicans have to be ready to impeach this sheisty, full of shit motherfucker.
This dudes pumped up on drugs and saying gibberish. His doctors would whistleblow on what he's on and maybe that'll invalidate his words.
Reminds me of the trope in movies where the king is ill and words are taken literally based on whoever. No surprise when they'll AI gen him after he's gone.
Hey sitouts: satisfied?
The fucking video player not once played what the title suggests. But he did ask them to buy oil from us. I know he lied when said we have plenty. How much do we have?
