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!

Yeah I've heard this all before. Since I was conscious and reading the news daily, these distortions aren't important to me and I refuse to argue about them anymore. Just know that a lot of people disagree with this ludicrous spin on reality
I just sleep at night knowing I didn’t kill thousands by pretending Covid was just a flu like Fauci and the CDC did. Covid was far far worse than a Flu is
Disagree with Fauci’s spin on reality where he downplayed Covid? Yeah, most people do
Yes the 4 day span he was trying to calm down 350 million people means science is invalid
Where did I mention the science? You are a fucking liar who didn’t read my comment. The science was valid but he misrepresented the science and lied about what the scientific evidence was and pretended Covid wasn’t a threat. Go back to your Fox News where you can pretend “it was just a flu”
Lol yeah you're right, I definitely don't hate Fox News with every fiber of my being. Keep on spreading hate about fauci though, that's in no way on board with Fox News at all!!! ;)
You are the one defending people downplaying Covid. So that seems like you must be a Fox News fan
Right, yeah saying Trump equals fauci is totally leftist as fuck lol you transparent moron
Awww, does baby need to use ableist terms?
