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 US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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 an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

We don’t want pentagon officials to be handsome for television.
We want them to be competent.
He probably thinks this comment is about him.
Dammit, beat me to it 😄
Jesus fucking christ. These are the competent geniuses that railed against wearing masks in the middle of a global pandemic. Now they're supposedly running the defense department.
Good job republiQans, you fucking twits.
Oh, it's Not the Onion.
How do I crosspost
Onion chose literally the most inopportune time to revive itself, their poor writers have been working constant overtime to stay ahead of reality lol. Trump already outdid his first 4 year term in only a couple of months.
They never went away. Half the shit they posted during term one, ended up coming true a few months later. Like the injecting bleach story.
God fucking damnit I really thought this was an Onion article.
Yeah. Our new reality. I hate it.
How big is the bar
Whiskey is the key to a natural glow
A deep swig of Jackie Ds to soften those features
Well he has to pick up the slack now that Canada is not buying USA liquor.
What’s the bet they would be offended by a man wearing nail polish.
So much manly warfighting.
He can tattoo the makeup like Vance
Can't tell if true or not...
made that point 1h ago in c/ncd and now stumble over this here lmao
Hopefully they will get someone who can line out old drunkys sideburns.
Maybe DOGE can cut make up rooms?
I'm sorry but proper makeup and grooming being a symbol of effective warfighting hasn't been a thing since Thermopylae.
VANITY
He’s so merit! We need more. They’re for us. Herp derp
What a bitch.
I thought they were against gender affirming care.
The makeup necessary for his upcoming white house (oval office) drag performance where he drains a half gallon of scotch, emails putin the back door to the F-35, and fucks a couple of ten year olds on the situation table... all the while taking selfies of him and his 'buds'.
