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!

They are being finished now. Biden is not doing anything to "hold Netanyahu back". Calling me a political purist for condemning unmitigated support of genocide is disgusting. If you don't want Trump to win, don't come at me about it-- come at the fucking democrat leadership who apparently care more about perpetuating atrocities in Gaza than winning the election.
Trump is spending time and effort unravelling whose ceasefire deal? Biden's.
So like a true trump supporter, you blame the democrats for what the republicans are doing.
I didn't call you a political purist. You're really not. I called out your sham "voter purity" where you pretend to care about Gaza and then advocate for lunatic geriatric genocidal trump to win.
I know it makes you feel better to imagine I'm a Trump supporter, so go right ahead. Biden can say the word "ceasefire" all he wants, but it does not mean a fucking thing if he remains absolutely unwavering in his material support for the ongoing genocide. What possible reason does Netanyahu have for stopping the slaughter? Biden pretends to disapprove slightly? What Trump does or doesn't talk to Netanyahu about is irrelevant.
It's not irrelevant. He's a hair's breadth from becoming commander in chief and then it won't be 10% or 20% of Palestinians killed, it'll be all of them. Trump really is that lunatic and that genicodal. Next he'll deport or put into camps all the Muslims in America. He'll not murder them in the street, he has his friend Netanyahu to do that, the people who he promised to shoot are the leftists.
Netanyahu is not feeling restrained in the least by Biden. He is murdering Palestinians at the rate he is willing and able to murder them. Trump won't wring his hands over it the dems occasionally pretend to do, but unlimited military and political support is already unlimited.
No. If he was, he wouldn't be doing the genocide thing.
He's feeling encouraged by geriatric genocidal Trump.
Presumably by your logic, individual gun shop owners are responsible for the all the deaths of children in school shootings in the USA, so you want to select as many Democrats as possible to stop the Republicans from blocking gun controls.
