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!

He’s 80. His dad died of Alzheimer’s. Odds are in favor of it. While syphilis is on the rise lately, it’s also cured with antibiotics. I think there’s lower odds of the syphilis, granted, until the last year or two, it wasn’t a common test run on anyone, so, maybe.
What’s interesting is China just came out with new nanotech which has effectively reduces the causes of Alzheimer’s in animal models. Meanwhile, Trump has both alienated China and chased many scientists from our country to theirs.
His dad, his grandad, and his sister all died of it. Of COURSE he has it, we’ve been screaming it since the first time this demented rapist was illegally placed in power.
I wonder if Merrick Garland has regrets, for dragging his feet. Not that it matters.
His father lived to 93 and mother to 88 according to a quick search.
Read this. His nephew details his later years. They were not good.
This came out last year as a part of warning everyone not to vote this demented rapist into office for god's sake. For all the good that did.
The classic “metal fatigue” level of brain degradation is Biden. A little woo-hoo, spacey now and again, slower, but totally with it other times.
Alzheimer’s, however, is only decline. Spiraling down., with varied momentum, marked by anger, erratic mood swings, and sometimes aggressive outbursts towards loved ones.
I see your point, however my point is that his entire regime (administration) should be removed from power.
Bondi should be disbarred, Miller imprisoned, for starters.
For starters, absolutely.
