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!

My post was deleted earlier (improperly linked the debate livestream), but I think that Allred held up really well and got Cruz so mad he was yelling at parts, which in contrast Allred hadn't shown much anger until the very end where Cruz started to try and twist Allreds words before their closing statements. My worry was that there would be a few answers like the economic plans or the ongoing conflicts in Israel that could have been a point where Allred could be weak in, but instead it was reassuring that he was able to tie it in to his overall message for Texans to fire Cruz by showing himself as competent and able to view problems as a bigger picture instead of freaking out about transgender sports.
Cruz was such a shitshow. "I don't have to answer because I'm not part of the state legislature". We know exactly what that means you fucking coward. Brave Sir Rafael ran away.

This should be his theme song
Why did this get your comment deleted? This is Lemmy, not fucking reddit; why the fuck are we removing comments for shit like linking to a offsite livestream??
It says post, not comment.
Thank you, that helps; i'm fine with higher standards for posts
Agreed. Take care.
