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 see how the conservative majority on the supreme court bends over backwards to say their ruling that said Presidents can do anything they want doesn't actually apply to the black one.

It's always projection with this syphilitic shitbag

[–] AlexLost@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yup, that's why I say he stole the election, because he keeps saying everyone actually did instead. Always projection with these weirdos

Cheaters can't imagine how someone can beat them without cheating

One of the only things that can be trusted at this point is that when Trump gets defensive, he starts heavily projecting his own actions and plans onto others.

Every accusation is an admission of guilt. Anyone who supports him at this point is a fucking pedo or a pedo enabling dipshit. Start applying for new ICE postings with shell accounts on a VPN to clog up their system, then if you get a call back, go though the process as far as you can, gather information, names, email addresses, domains, naming conventions, companies they outsource the interview process to, etc

Every accusation, is an admission

But what treasonous act is this one about?

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

He's in the pocket of Israel, Russia, and the Saudis. He also just spent 2 billion on a gestapo expansion while kicking millions off healthcare, destroying public education, broadcasting, weather forecasting, FAA and the FDA.

He is systematically weakening our country and infrastructure in a way that WILL lead to the deaths of millions of Americans. He is guilty of pretty much every conceivable aspect of treason.

This whole timeline could have been avoided if Obama hadn't made fun of Trump that one time. Thanks, Obama.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 33 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Could have also been avoided if Biden walked into the Supreme Court with a shotgun engraved with the words "Official Acts"

For real. We needed a lion but we got a kitten.

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago

Quick! Look! A distraction!

[–] Kurious84@eviltoast.org 14 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Obama is a breath of fresh air. But sorry rump. Time to face the music. Epstein is gonna haunt you.

[–] Rakonat@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

If the projection gets much stronger we're gonna need sunglasses to look at the screen.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The only time I saw Melania smile is when Obama was talking to her. Is making another man's wife smile (when he can't) treason?

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

She made heart eyes at Trudeau.

Meanwhile Scomo remains in the background, a vacant minded cuck.

"Why the bloody hell aren't I there?"

[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 2 points 4 days ago

Such a creepy cunt

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago

I don't think he knows what that word really means.

[–] selkiesidhe@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

Oh? How interes--- RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES, YOU CRUSTY OLD BASTARD

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 days ago

Discovery's going to be big fun.
