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 said custody and not prison for a reason.
He'll be on house arrest in a shitty barrack on a military base somewhere, just like Nixon's lawyer.
Like a fatter, dumber, less charming Napoleon sent to Elba.
I feel like the absolute harshest punishment I can reasonably see him ever facing is nothing more than a ban from holding public office.
That's it.
Maaaaaybe a few months of house arrest at Mar a Lago. Maybe punitive fines.
No prison time. Nothing that will affect his wealth. Nothing that will deplatform him as the grotesque figurehead of American conservatism until he dies.
I'm confident he will play kingmaker for that half of the American political landscape until he's dead.
Nah, the feds know where those missing top-secret files ended up at by now. The DoJ doesn't spend this amount of time, money & manpower to hand out a slap on the wrist.
New York is quite literally about to make Trump insolvent.
I hope you're right, but I'm not holding my breath.
Any. Day. Now.
Yes, literally. It would have been last week, but Judge Engorgon decided he needed to tack on more zeros since he discovered Trump's financial controller committed perjury in his court room.
🥱 Wake me up when he pays a dime.
