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!

Meanwhile I just saw an article about donors being worried about Biden using note cards...
I'd be more worried about the genocide.
People ITT: Fine with supplying arms to a country engaged in genocide as long as it's the dems doing it.
Yeah yeah yeah, you got us all figured out seeing as we're not slovenly throwing charged words around while using conspiracy to deflect in our edits.
Maybe people are simply tired of hearing off-topic screeds? Nah, it's the children that are wrong.
I'm not happy about that, either, but my choice is between someone who'll maintain the current level and someone who'll make that genocide even worse and try to start one HERE, too. Both options are bad, but one is measurably and obviously less bad.
Stop voting for the lesser of two evils so you can vote for the greater? WHY DIDNT WE THINK OF THIS BEFORE!?!?!
How about you vote for the lesser of two evils and also protest and do all the other stuff? Seriously do not understand what you're advocating for.
bOtH siDeS are not the same here, kiddo. No matter how hard your propaganda tells you they are.
For starters, Biden is NOT committing genocide anywhere.
I'm sure history will remember the likes of you with disgust.
Such RAAAAAGE! Don’t worry, history couldn’t a shit about either of us. But the “likes of you” are usually remembers humorously for a while at least.
I mean, manufactured outrage over events happening in a country you probably couldn’t have pointed to on a map six months ago, to people you weren’t even aware were at war?
Things like this are usually never taken seriously at best- and laughed at at worst.
You’re batting 1,000 here with the insults, aren’t you?
I never said anything about concentration camps. I simply pointed out that people like YOU had no idea about it six months ago- it was implied in what I said that this has been going on a LONG time.
You only chose to be outraged about it because it’s the socially accepted thing to do.
what do you care? i thought you were ready for everyone to die.
You say this as if Ol' Trumpie boy wouldn't also contribute to both the Palestinian genocide AND the Ukrainian one
The one thing Trump won't do is start WW3. There are only two nations with nuclear arsenals that can threaten MAD, and the other is holding his leash.
The EU would dick Putin down, and has a defensive pact as part of joining. Not to mention that there are multiple nuclear powers in the organization.
Lmao
Have you already forgotten his random assassination of that Iranian general? Or when he was trading barbs with NK, "this is the calm before the storm"?
How do you imagine either of those things provoking MAD?
Generally speaking I like to avoid wars in general, WW3/MAD or not.
The fact that anyone thinks electing Trump will somehow improve the Gaza situation is absolutely baffling to me.
ROFL!
