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 tried to engage with a devout trumper about his. They REFUSED to admit that trump was in any way involved with Epstein, despite photographic & video evidence. They ALWAYS furnished some excuse or deflection. Mostly involving Biden “sniffing little girls hair.”
Seriously. These people are deranged. There’s no breaking them from the cult.
I really don't want to know what qualifies as "Epstein memorabilia".
The Trumper I know said that Trump was Epstein‘s neighbor so of course they are seen together. 🤦♂️
To be fair, just being in a picture with someone doesn't make you "involved" at any level. At best, it's circumstantial evidence of nothing much.
Speaking of evidence

Still gonna put that in quotes next time, or is your cult forbidden from that?
See, it's just a video, doesn't mean anything, right?
Hey numbnuts, nice job giving us a textbook example of deflection. Not that we needed one
shrug. You're the ones lobbing the accusations of cult-like behavior while behaving exactly the same way.
Here we find the conservative doubling down by immediately repeating that no, they do in fact know that you are, but plead: "what, then, am I? Tell me!"
Oh what a lovely surprise! They have just tripled down in the very same sentence! You see, part of their hive's rules is that all outsiders must be treated as cooperating members of a single enemy conspiracy.
Have you ever considered that if you need to resort to such word salad, you have nothing?
This "conservative" who lives in Canada and voted liberal... "hive mind" indeed.
But keep it coming, the cringe is funny.
Next you should pretend I wrote that first reply of yours where you linked to a random Australian video about the previous elderly president and then said they were in a cult. How would you critique me?
Try more dressing with that word salad. I recommend creamy cucumber. It's refreshing this time of year.
bUt MaH wOrD sAlAd!
Wait? It,s the left that's in a cult now? You know that's how children argue, right? "I know you are, but what am i?" Is a bad look for you.
Tell me, in this cult the left is in, who is the leader? Who is at the head, feeding the masses the mantras?
Seems like there hasnt been a leader that the left has fully trusted in many years, even decades. Likely evidence that they are thinking for themselves and not just following the bullshit of some pedophile dementia patient.
The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
As a Canadian, interacting with you rabid lunatics online is the only safe way to study how you went from putting a man on the Moon with the help of Nazis, to becoming them.
Wow, and I though American idiots were special!
You heard it here first folks, trying to hold a fascist dictator accountable makes you the real Nazi! 🤣
It's actually wild to hear you calling the leftists the Nazis, when trump is literally following the Nazi playbook.
I think you need an executive summary of what the hell that torrent of screenshots was supposed to mean.
That’s because they only have one brain cell up there and it’s telling them to keep breathing! They have nothing else up there but cobwebs and space!
