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!

Punishment can include and is not limited to death.
I think there's a bit of a sobering moment that we have a Presidential candidate that is calling for specific names to be held to a firing squad.
He tried to get Pence killed four years ago. We've known for at least that long that this is who Trump is. Republicans don't care.
Hey, they may be handing the country over to Fascism, but at least the people they hate will suffer!
Yes, my life may suck, but at least I’m not a woke gay pride critical gender theory non-white lefty lib that believes in human rights.
/sarcasm
It’s depressing because honestly I am just sad for the people that get into the conspiracies
They do care. This is exactly what they want, a maniacal dictator who will kill all the "others" to implement a religious ethnostate
When I first read that I thought it said Prince and I was seriously horrified. Now that I see it's just about Mike pence, eh.
I hate to be the one to tell you, but Prince died in 2016.
Yeah. Still pretty bummed about it.
So if Pence would have died, that would have been an official act.
Donald: we need a Night of the Long Knives.
SCOTUS: let us open the kitchen drawer for you.
The guy that avoided drafting, is Putin's bitch and said vetetans who died in the war were loosers.
"Loser" Why is that so hard for so many people?
I assume because it has the "oo" sound. "Loser" looks like it rhymes with "hoser".
if you're an idiot that has never read a book in your life.
Believe it or not, some people here don't have english as a first language. Whether or not this specific person does is irrelevant, my point is you could try some leniency
That’s why I’m investing and drinking lots of alcohol. Who wants to be sober as society collapses?
Bourbon and soda on the rocks!
The trump/Hitler comparison is becoming less ridiculous
It was never ridiculous, people just weren't able or willing to look into the future far enough. If someone said this would happen back in 2016 you'd be ridiculed.
And now look where we are.
