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!

Received a text claiming to be a Kamala ad. It used the language of the Harris campaign but twisted it and lied to trigger people.
So I clicked on it and it led me here: https://progress2028.com
This steaming pile of elephant shit is definitely not from the Harris campaign. This is the rhetoric of the MAGA echo chamber with the veneer of the Harris campaign language.
The initial text named my town. Kamala is focused on schools in [My Town] to ensure all students receive gender affirming care….
In a battleground state.
So that’s happening today.
It's extremely telling that they think all of that stuff is bad and part of a secret conspiracy. I wish Kamala was as left as they make her seem.
That is what makes their communist and Marxist comments sound like a 5yr old trying to tell you a story he just made up. She was chosen by Biden because of how moderate she is. That’s also why they’re running with her now. She IS the purple candidate, which is going to appeal to places like WI and MI. She IS a liberal gun owner, which really is a position we need more of, to win.
She also failed in the primary because of how moderate she is. Republicans tend not to finish that sentence when they say it. “She failed in her primary…(because she leans too far into Republican).”
You should report that to election officials and the FCC.
And where would we do that?
I don't know, but a quick search for "report election fraud" turned up some stuff, including this page: https://oig.eac.gov/fraud-reporting
FCC too because it's over telecom and that's who regulates that. https://www.fcc.gov/general/frauds-scams-and-alerts-guides
I expect they'll investigate it in 6-12 months, assuming Trump loses
I fucking WISH those policy positions were real. Alas, there's obvious lies such as
where in the dark timeline we actually live in, one of her most consequential acts as VP was to be the tie breaking vote AGAINST doing exactly that 😮💨
I hope that every Republican angry that a Democrat might do something good steps on a LEGO tonight.
