Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Can't wait to hear the mental gymnastics the GOP will use to not vote for this.

This. They need to do their part making them reveal their true allegiance

I’d happily await the day where Trump is an actual Russian asset instead of being some random convicted felon elected as president.

I mean he literally trained and equipped Ukraine during his first presidency.

Meanwhile, it is ignored that Obama was giving “reset” buttons to Putin.

Well, I mean, he tried to blackmail Zelensky into investigating Biden for aid so he's clearly not it for the right reasons ever

Number 1 priority for Trump is… Trump.

He doesn’t really care about Ukraine and Russia nor does he care about peace.

You were getting somewhere on that blackmail talk.

One of the reasons that Trump is having America betray Ukraine is because Zelenskyy raised objections to Trump’s ask for help in finding dirt on Biden, and Trump was then impeached. Trump now has personal hatred for Zelenskyy which was worsened after that massive fuck up that was Zelenskyy’s visit to the White House.

It's cute that someone things a new law will mean anything.

[–] Chocrates@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

It won't even make it to debate

[–] NimdaQA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

It should not be voted for.

What Trump should do more is send more worthless Abrams to Ukraine so the troops can be paid more bonuses.

Ah, yes. The journalistic excellence of "Rumble".
