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!

Pretty sure republicans got in trouble in poland recently for trying to adopt large groups of white kids.
Republicans represent rich rural fiefdoms and immigrant labor is a major part of that that can't be overlooked.
Why do you think they've rolled back child labor laws recently? This is their last ditch political response to immigrant labor.
unfortunately the ensuing chaos that happens about 10-20 years down the line after these boom events is what eventually sobers them up as the bodies pile up and the children are killed by industries, the state, crime or chaos.
Sorry mate, this honestly sounds like a bit of a crazy rant. Can you link me something about the push kids?
which part?
Sorry, I meant the polish kids
Apparently its a little crazier than I remember, Matt Shea was a washington state politician, the orphans are ukranian:

Sure ok. Clearly that's the work of a lone nutter rather than "republicans".
Sure but I don't think he's an atypical "lone nutter" in eastern washington. He believes a lot of things regular republicans believe and is just acting on them more than most.
