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!

Yeah, but gEnoCiDejoE and Kamala had that cackle (and didn't have a peener!), so...this was the only proper outcome.
This will....checks notes....Send A Message To The Democrats To Do Better Next Time (TM) or some such bullshit.
So one hopes that the voting public is learning a hard—or I should say watery—lesson about how important good government is
Most of them won't learn anything. If they were capable of learning, they've had ample time to do so.
Some of the undecided may learn. Most conservatives are probably a lost cause and always will be. These are the people that were claiming "it's just like the flu!" and "PLANDEMIC!" even as they lay dying of Covid, FFS.
And a whole lot of them were gobbling stuff like horse dewormer and calling for Fauci's head for endorsing life-saving vaccines.
Cons are not likely to learn a fucking thing from a round of this, even if they have the worst version of it.
All they will do is complain to taco bell employees that their tacos are missing lettuce.
I'm sure people are suffering, but I think we all have to agree that as long as Donald Trump continues to speak, it will only be the second worst diarrhea outbreak this century.
America has literally gone to shit!
This makes me want Adam Conover and Obama to make a sequel to The G Word showing how much damage the Federal government has taken in the last couple of years.
Amen to that. The doofs that vote Republican will likely never watch it, but a whole lot of fence-sitters/"centrists" may.
He did post a video of him shiting all over Chicago. He just didn't use a fighter jet to do it.
Well at least on this, he leads by example
Should be called the MAGA Trots.
Donarrhea?
Feel like Trump Trots is good too.
Trump's dumps.
That's better.
Don’s Diarrhea
Donorrhea was just sitting there, waiting for you to pick it up.
Please do not pick up the donorrhea.
Shart of the deal
He opened his mouth?
From the algae bloom to diarrhea outbreak, can the gods give us no clearer signs of what's going on?
I read the title and thought "woah, that's a little private," but then I realized it wasn't about his adult diaper.
This is just republican policy in action. It isn't simply the dipshits responsibility but every republican and conservative dem that enabled them.
Its a hobby of him ,schitting in his pants and on people.
He was upset at being the only person to constantly shid pant. So he made it so everyone shid pant. Because thats how his voided cranial cavity works.
shart of the deal
Shart of the seal
Can't wait until Ebola gets here.
now THIS is Legacy
They don’t call him King Mierdas for nothing.
He opened his mouth
.... maybe this is meant to make us all very thin and sexy again so we can have a ton of babies? Hopefully White blue eyed and not fake blonde ones? But fake blonde is totally cool so long as we all speak just the one language and not others and think just the one religion is correct and not others or none. Hopefully they're all binary babies and not spectrum babies or non binary. This is all in line with proper dementia.
So was the previous cilantro outbreak caused by someone pooping in a hole near crops or from contaminated irrigation water (likely from livestock)? It seems like a material difference to me because it changes how you prevent future outbreaks. The article makes it seem like the first, but I suspect the publication has a perspective it is pushing (not a bad one, but perhaps not related to the cilantro outbreak).
