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!

He should have started an LLC so he could limit his liability. Oil companies love them.
his lawyers claim he's a law-abiding family man.
If this was a movie script, it would be rejected for being too unrealistic.
What kind of society do we live in where it's illegal to store your homemade pipe bomb collection in the freezer?
Don't worry. If a fridge can protect Indiana Jones from the heat and radiation of a nuclear explosion, I'm sure a fridge will be able to contain a few pipe bombs if they go off.
Why do I even pay taxes if I have to hide my suicide vests?
Just use a belt and you can hang it by the front door. It’s the vest that makes it illegal. Loopholes 👌
Where else would you keep them? Don’t they want him to be safe?! He’s a model citizen.
He’s a hard working man with no criminal record… who just also happens to love stockpiling a shit load of highly dangerous and highly illegal explosives.
Holy shit! I assumed it was just fireworks.
Yes...officer...those are special bottle rockets. You see unlike normal bottle rockets, these are sealed on both ends! It makes them fly further.
How long can they hold him on just a charge of a short barrel rifle? Did he commit any other crimes?
