politics
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!

Lol we don't do that here. We just sit back and watch it happen because we're all feckless cunts, government officials and all. Jack Smith and the like will take one last whiff of his own farts smiling as he imagines himself glorious on his high horse for being Above It All™ and then the ground comes out from under him as he gets ~~hung.~~ hanged.
Edit: I making muchy good englishing
To be fair, I feel like Jack Smith was absolutely sabotaged by his boss. Garland had ZERO interest in the investigations actually going anywhere. It’s part of why he waited so long to even get started on anything, and part of why he didn’t push back more forcefully against blatantly partisan judicial bullshittery.
Wonderful Republican Merrick Garland. Literally suggested to Obama by Republicans for SCOTUS and then they gave him the finger anyway. Well they definitely got what they wanted in him. :/
Daily reminder that the moral high road is filled with corpses.
Hanged*
Sorry, everyone gets that wrong constantly and it drives me nuts
Thanks for the correction! I has big good englishing
He might also be hung you dunno
