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!

Veep Not Possible.
People need to take to whatever socials they might use to make it clear to the KH campaign that this asshole will tank her popularity. Just because he was much younger when he wrote that doesn't make it ok when Israel is literally committing genocide and deliberately fouling up every opportunity for a ceasefire today. The world has had its eyes opened to what they're doing in a way that cannot be denied ever again. This man made himself toxic with what he wrote and it's his own fault that he isn't qualified for the job.
Why do have no faith that the DNC will pick the best candidate that will help her win? I feel they will find a way to sabotage her run because they can't let us have a progressive VP. They probably will choose this asshat or someone worse. I hope I am wrong.
They picked Hillary, Tim Caine, and Biden. It's not like they have a great track record in recent years.
Or she'll tank it herself by revealing that, pretty speeches aside, her actual policies and ideals are completely dependent on what's most advantageous for her at any given moment.
I hope to be proven wrong, but other than being the first presidential candidate to ever mention the security and self-determination of Palestinians, (which is admittedly huge, as far as statements go) her record so far isn't that convincing..
