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!

American Democrats have this disease, when you criticize a democrat they immediately call you a Russian or a republican. In truth I'm not American and your Democrats are nothing but conservatives in disguise. To me, Democrats are conservatives and your country has no idea what a real liberal is. I'm so far left of you that you think I'm a Russian, that's crazy.
Not "when you criticize a democrat", more like "when you sound exactly the same as a conspiracy theory nutjob in your critique". OMG, a guy who recently had a stroke took time off! What could be the deep state mystery behind this insidious behavior?!
You don't wanna get called a shill stop saying the same stupid shit they all do.
Your country is such a disaster you guys can't even tell who is who. You're such tribalists that anyone who criticizes you is an enemy. You can't even be a democrat and criticize a democrat, or you get called a shill. What a clown show your country turned you guys into.
Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, eh?
Lol you're calling a Canadian, socialist/person of color a Russian cause I think your country is fucked and too conservative. Way to go America, even your liberals are diseased with political tribalism and nationalism now. You've sunk to the level of the people you claimed to oppose.
Miss me with the identity politics and I'm with you brother; I don't care about your skin, only your politics.
Only people who don't suffer because of their race don't care about race
Plainly not true.
