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!

Mother fuckers. Can we outlaw these lawmakers from breathing air. Fuck that noise. These fucker don't care what people put in their bodies or they be regulations on the pfsa and shit. How can we overturn this BS and how can I stop Oklahoma from passing this bill?
Oklahoma will pass a worse version, somehow.
Because putting artificial lab meat with who knows what in it is so much better, right?
Jesus fuck, sure, the motives here are typical auth-right follow the money bullshit, but the actual idea to ban lab meat is good. This is just typical nutter vegan "SAVE THE ANIMALS" / pseudoenvironmentalism bullshit that could be fixed by lower consumption, lower production, and lower human population.
Why would anyone assume we won't know what's in lab grown meat? If we make it, we will know.
Also, it's pretty hilarious to watch people suddenly freak out about not knowing what they're eating. People try foreign foods all the time without knowing what's in them. I've had servers who didn't know ranch dressing contained mayo. Can you name every ingredient in tiramisu, or bouillabaisse, or penang curry? You wouldn't think twice about eating those.
Love how you assume these corporations behind it will tell us all the details.
It's horrible, unnatural in all the worst ways, and possibly dangerous when a much, much simpler solution exists called JUST FUCKING EAT REAL MEAT YOU GODDAMN SHITLORDS.
