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!

In fairness, the dog did look like a couch...
Oh, no! Not Chairry!
Completely untrue.
What an absolutely ridiculous and unbelievable accusation.
He raped it dozens of times.
Only correct response:
"Are you sure you aren't mistaking me for Jim Jordan?"
Now that ... that is brilliant.
Of course it is MAGA will believe anything.
These people are the worst, especially considering Trump is absoltuly an abuser.
With so many trolls ready to post this headline 100 times, of course it's working. Useful idiots are what make this whole process work.
Such an odd line of attack. This is a group that worships a guy who straight up bragged that if he finds someone attractive he sexually assaults them, then made the absolutely unhinged defense that you can't use that confession against him because he was in a locker room when he said it? And is also on the record that like his best friend pedophile Jeff Epstein he likes them "on the younger side".
This sounds just like Elon Musk, butthurt that his minisub idea was mocked, called the man who actually rescued those kids a "pedo guy".
The wingnuts always go calling everyone else a pedo...projection.
"that he sexually assaulted a minor while working as a teacher and football coach."
Even with the quote marks, you probably want to specify that this is a lie.
These are the same dumbphucks that fell for the birther nonsense and then elected the very King of the birthers, soooo....
