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!

The guy who said "Russia if you're listening hack Hillarys emails" never colluded with Russia? Interesting take.
Trump Derangement Syndrome aside, I say to pay more attention to the Uhuru III trail taking place in Tampa, Florida.
This owner-class article should give you the status quo talking points and basics.
Does the tenet media indictment give you any pause?
I am critical of a lot, especially MSM and government.
The history of dissedence, our civil rights activists, and many more has something to do with my views on this.
My views may change a bit when I check independent journalists and independent media, as well as owner-class media.
Word of the day, for me!
Lol, no I mean this

IMO:
Thanks for another owner-class media article.
"Far-right" and "Far-left" American influencers.
I wonder which journalists in MSM get propped up by the owner-class; it seems many like to follow the status quo, whether they are "left" or "right" leaning.
If you're just gonna dismiss every media outlet because you don't like the words they use, read the indictment. Tim pool and Dave rubin and friends are literally russian mouthpieces no matter who says it.
Edit: added sentences below quote
I am not dismissing it, I am just pointing it who funds and controls them.
Billionaires and corporations continue to buy up media.
They say this about the "far left" and the "far right", I am critical of these talking points.
Yeah, they accuse them because they spew russian talking points all the time. This is different because they discovered that the company that pays them was actually founded by 2 RT employees. Literally. Actually. Russian. State. Funded.
IMO: These are just more status quo fascists pushing for censorship of dissent, using another excuse to limit our first amendment rights.
