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!

This is so beyond indefensible that I have no words.
A failure to hold Trump accountable for his many flagrant violations of national security laws would be a complete failure of justice.
Anyone who has any semblance of basic thought could tell that trump was a disaster and electing him as president is one of the dumbest fucking things imaginable that you could do, and republicans went and did it. How could electing an irresponsible, stupid man-child be of any help to anyone whatsoever?
He helped them advance their goals. The trump presidency did more for the Christian/white nationalists in four years than they accomplished in the last thirty. We (everyone not a hateful POS) will be dealing with the results of his presidency for decades. Hopefully we can prevent them from making further gains.
He cut taxes for uber rich, which is the plan for every Republican politician. The system is working as intended.
He made it clear that he'll let them hurt the people they want to hurt. That's what conservative politics is: a list of enemies and strategies by which they can be harmed.
A failure to hold Trump accountable for his many flagrant violations of national security laws would be just the latest example of a complete failure of justice.
As long as the GOP have control, not a damn thing is gonna happen to Trump. But you bet your ass they're gonna do everything they can to impeach Biden for some nonsense.
And an injustice to all the loyal federal servants that vigilantly keep classified documents safe and make sacrifices to do so every day.
is a complete failure of justice. A continued failure. And let’s not think about national security.
