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.

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!

I hope she chokes on her vomit in her sleep.
Realistically, I'd be happy for her to choke on pretty much anyone's vomit. Extra points for creativity.
I volunteer. I'll eat some weird shit
A whole bag of Skittles please, so she can taste the rainbow
The same could work with the right combinations of chili, OJ, corn, peas, blue cacao (or any blue booze), and purple cabbage.
It’s gonna suck a lot more for the vommiter, but she doesn’t deserve to die with a sweet taste in her mouth.
You, I like.

Bigoted bitch
Can’t she, like, shut the fuck up? I wish our paths were to cross.
Methinks this Caitlyn Jenner doppelgänger doth protest too much.
How come the reporting is censoring the word?
Hate speech is censored to avoid normalizing language intended to encourage violence against the disempowered.
Oooh, nicely put.
Before your comment, I was thinking, "why not show the word? What word could it be? I'm a big boy and it won't hurt me," but ... after your comment I think I get it.
I may have to take this away and think on it, and thank you for the catalyst.
Fuck yeah. Personal growth for the win.
Yeah but you could report without reporting the word if that is the case. You could keep the fact “the slur has been used” yet they go the extra mile to put it and censored it it. The reporting should just say the fact that a representative used a discriminatory language. I agree with you that we are on for 4 years of hyper normalization https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperNormalisation

It's pretty funny. The whole article is about her using a specific slur but it won't even mention what the slur was. Well done good reporting.

N. Mace is really focusing on lowering the price of chicken eggs I see.
