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!

Fuck Newsome, for sure.
To say he's just as fascist as Trump is crazy though
Gavin Newsom is more overtly right-wing than our Canadian Prime Minister was when he was campaigning and even then it was pretty clear who he was going to work for. Now that he’s in charge he’s selling our country for parts and fucking us all over, down to trying to order a strike to be illegal to help out an airline. There are “surveys” they’re putting out that only allow compliments.
Gavin Newsom is objectively worse than Carney and Carney is awful. The only thing making these people appear less awful than Trump is that their suits fit, they don’t have dementia, and they’re willing to appear at a pride parade if only to launder their image. The distinction is functionally meaningless at this point.
I mean... He ran a podcast with Charlie Kirk.
No it's not. The dude is just as fucking corrupt and only has an eye for fascist crapitalism, he doesn't do good things at all for the people of California and has screwed up his tenure on purpose to his own benefit and the state governments. Exploiting your constituents is fucking fascist. He may not be a rapist/pedophile and in that regard and that regard only, might he a better man than the orange one.
