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!

MODERATORS
I love how they suddenly started pointing out each other's severe character flaws like they weren't acting like they were best buddies until recently.
Musk calls Donald a paedophile, and yet he admittedly got him elected. Trump calls Elon an unstable drug addict and yet made a commercial for his company's products and gave him the power to cause severe and irreparable damage to governmental institutions.
Still letting him Supreme Court just gave them full access to our social security data.
His cronies had unsupervised write access to many critical databases. They easily could have planted something that lays dormant and could cause permanent damage or even completely cripple the entire government for years to come if ever activated.
Remember, his cronies have already uploaded every department's data to Starlink, which I believe is directly compromised by Russia (as well as other foreign actors). Imagine the chaos that Russia can do here if they start weaponizing all those SSNs....
It's all just a distraction. It coincides with him finishing preparations to send the national gaurd to police "sanctuary cities" and enforce immigration laws.
He's sending the military to police our cities, this is martial law without declaring it. He's even talking about forcibly sending the gaurd from primarily Republican states into primarily Democrat lead states against the will of those governors. This might be the worst constitutional crisis since the Civil War.
Yet all I'm hearing about these days is all about Musk and Trump fighting.

That got me when Trump said he wondered why Biden never cancelled Musk's contracts. Like, my guy... I know you have dementia or whatever, but you do know you gave the man the keys to the US government like five minutes ago, right?
There's nothing out of character for repubs. They're corrupt as fuck.
