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'll teach em!
Too bad they'll never have another chance when the GOP finally seizes power as they intend and finishes off what's left of our democracy.
But at least you made your point!
How many decades have we heard Democracy is on the line? Or Democracy is on the ballot? There is no democracy in the US, money has a say in our government and policy, the plebs do not. Youve been sold a bill of fear, and you paid full price for it
Yeah, there totally wasn't an attempt to overturn an election 2 years ago
Thats not an indicator theres US democracy. Dems are just as crazy with stolen elections as republicans are.
Bet you dont remember the riots the night Trump was inaugurated do you?
No. You are arguing in bad faith. There was a coordinated plan to have pence reject the results and use a false set of electors in several states to change the results. This is unique to republicans. It won't be the last time
Im not arguing in bad faith, Im pointing out democrats are as toxic as their counterparts. While trying to hold the moral authority that they are above such actions.
But they are. I just told you who tried to overturn an election. Surprise, not Democrats
They just have their voters believing they are above such tactics as election denial
But you people said this last time. If you truly believe your democracy is that shit you should be protesting against it instead of being some kind of willing hostage.
We did say this the last time. You do know there was a coordinated plan to overturn that election right?
Well the Feds rigged the election anyway. Both sides of the party are trying to rig the election. Doesn't say much for your democracy.
Found the shill
"both sides are trying to rig the election" lol shut the fuck up, fascist, we don't want you go back to Russia
The intentionally covered up Biden's son's laptop. Zuckerberg helped. Do you deny this?
JEWISH SPACE LAZERS!!1
Fuck off fash
You're denying reality and I'm the conspiracy nutter?
