I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:

  1. Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.

  2. Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.

  3. Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.

@realcaseyrollins

You could've at least made me sound like a monster by saying benefits for losers.
And then I could say let them learn to swim or drown.

If I were mike Johnson, I'd be playing extreme hardball.
I'd start the negotiations at 6 months of government shutdown unless they agree to single bills.

And then just shut it down until they cave.

Now that's what I'm down with. Just don't shut down the government in pursuit of vague disgruntlements.
