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!

Don’t know why they’re not in there. https://abc13.com/jenna-ellis-sydney-powell-donald-trump-2020-election/14054154/
Holy shit, that's really, really bad. We all knew he was attempting a coup, but to hear her say that they were going to take over all of the voting machines spells it out.
And if he gets elected in 2024, I don’t think I’m being hyperbolic when I say democracy is dead. He’ll wipe his ass with the Constitution.
I'm starting to think it's just because he's on the ticket. They're planning on a coup part deux and talking about it out loud, we have to be prepared for that possibility.
Democracy only dies if we let it. If it comes down to it, we may have no choice, but to fight the nazis or join their ranks. I've made my peace, I have a plan in place. I truly hope we don't see him re-elected, but we have to be ready if he is.
Your sentiment is admirable and glad youre willing to fight the fascism but it’s going to be so much more complicated that that, if he’s reelected and there’s any pushback against the ghoulish shit the GOP wants to do at all from states like California, Washington, or Michigan(which there will be), we’re looking at a constitution crisis followed by a multifaceted civil war. And that will make some very strange bedfellows when alliances have to be made for resources or suppressing a common enemy
