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!

Here's the tweet to save you a visit:
https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1816288577342369995
Hoping there's an alternative link, for those of us that don't want to support that shitstain or his garbage site.
It’s worth it
...every time you link to xitter, elon drowns a puppy...
Much rather a screenshot. Going there started cancer on my phone.
Edit. Actually, the article was far far easier than that Twitter link
It's a video
Yes I know. I've obviously seen it, hence my edit.
I don't know why you're getting downvotes, this is apparently the source... The article is useless and just quotes tweets.
Because twitter. But really we need to stop using it and look away from it while we hold its head underwater until the bubbles stop.
People here are weird, man. Huffpost is known to be one of the most heavily ad cluttered mess of a website in existence. There was an auto-playing video at the top, that paused itself after a few seconds for an auto-playing ad. Then I had to scroll past 4 other ads and a tweet that was not the tweet in question. I eventually got to the actual tweet after more scrolling.
And again, it's a tweet in the article. From Twitter.
But people are acting like since I posted directly to the tweet to save them all that, that I am somehow doing them a disservice while personally blowing Elon Musk and cupping his balls. The Fediverse is a weird place sometimes.
Might just be that people whom are willing to use relatively niche social media platforms are also very likely to disagree with popular social media platforms, and also have competent online protection systems.
Some of the largest communities here are about free software, circumventing the will of large corporations, and extreme computer literacy. But we are on a political post, so who knows how much overlap there is.
The article literally has the video in it.
Not for me, maybe got caught in ad blocker or something. The website is so shitty
That doesn't make any sense. The link it just to an article that has text and a couple videos.
