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!

I'd bet a lot of money he didn't say that, or it's taken out of context.

But I'm sure as shit not giving them a click, there's an almost zero chance the article is better than the headline.
And I have no idea why anyone would read that website let alone promote it on social media
Saw it on TV.
You saw a Washington Examiner article on TV and that made you want to spread it on social media?
That still doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me
Saw it on CNN.
Had a news alert on computer
Shared it
Happy?
Nope, still pretty confused why you're posting unreliable rightwing websites, and I don't think you're gonna explain it either.
Feel free to keep doing it, but people are still gonna keep commenting on why nothing these websites say matters.
So you might as well get used to it.
That’s because others post articles from those two agencies and I usually read them straight from the website anyways, so I have nothing to gain nor lose from such action :)
Besides, it’s always good to diversify news sources anyways. If you are to truly understand something, then you will need the contrast - not an adherence to a single point of view or idea.
Got the CNN story?
