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!

The president of the United States is going on an expletive laden tirade (again). Surely we have reached the point where you can publish the word Fuck in a headline. The broad news media coyness about "bad words" is so fucking asinine. He said the words, publish the words. The guy rapes kids, but heaven forbid those kids accidentally read a curse word, that'd scar them.
Feel like the US media would say "he allegedly had unwanted intercourse with underage parnters" or some shit like that. Something real pedo-coded.
It's all elites protecting the pact that they have. Case in point, even the owner of TheDailyBeast is:
Sure they're ultimately just people, but their class interests and protections will always get ahead of that. Even within those more "left" than the average rich person.
So that explains why TheDailyBeast is always so clickbaity and editorialized. I've always hated and ignored their reporting, even though it's mostly on my side of the political spectrum...
STUPID Libtard thinking 8 year old WOMEN are Underage!
-People with Kill Pedophile Stickers!
Actually a lot of 8-year olds are very mature and are perfectly capable of deciding for themselves if they want sexual relations with mature men in perfect health. A loving relationship between two concending humans does not equate sexual assault, you monster!
Not me. Writing the above made me wash my hands twice, my eyes once and puncture my eardrum so I could flush my brain with alcohol.
