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!

Wait, they’re now denying the FAA and air traffic controller cuts even took place?! Holy shit hellooo media, hound them on this obvious bullshit already jfc.
If you look at the cuts on a 10 year time horizon and consider the money that actually went out on day one of the President's promise to Make America Great Again and then you invert the graph of plane crashes you will clearly see that you are a woke stupid idiot and flying has never been better everyone is saying it I love America USA! USA! USA! Love it or leave it I will never get tired of winning Trump 2028 centipede Trust The Plan.
Bah Gawd, how did I not see it this way? Must be those woke college professors teaching me critical thinking and data analysis for LIBS! Knew they should never have been trusted.
I mean, the joke of modern conservatism is often pairing the "Critical Thinking is just liberal brainwashing" with "We've done numerology on the latest Q-brief to divine the hidden meaning of the 2018 primary debacle".
Folks are clearly not above spinning their wheels until smoke comes out their ears. You can rocket into deep space chasing why tariffs are good for the economy and only Israelis deserve foreign aid. Just so long as the priors remain undisturbed.
But don't leave it by airplane.
The best the media can do is agree that no cuts were made and then post an article about how checks and balances keep aircraft safe.
The media will contine to attempt to cover up the coup being committed by the oligarchy it serves.
