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’s the ugliest, dumbest creature on the entire planet.
So, finally hitting the 1%?
I personally love that they retalitory tarrifs on spirits are specifically targetting tennessee whiskey and kentucky bourbon. Hit those deep red states and maybe change a few minds.
Im low key on board with rednecks with guns and a drinking problem getting real pissed over this one
Hey seriously EU I would not object if you just decided to stop buying shit from us. I encourage you to boycott us. This is the dumbest fucking shit.
I know some die-hard maga boomers who are going to fucking hate this one, but they will blame France. Then they will just find a way around it like they do for Cuban Cigars.
do people really buy French wine in america?
I knew some high end restaurant operators recently and they were largely focusing on local and regional bottles. I’m not seeing French wines in like Walmart or grocery stores.
I think the french champagne is a good chunk of this
All champagne is French champagne.
I know quite a few people who go to France once a year specifically to buy wine and wine futures. There are a lot of them.
