The mental gymnastics these fucks do to hold one side accountable for things they wouldn't on their own side is some Biles level tumbling and flipping.
I couldn't imagine being this devoid of values.

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!

They're on a mission from God. It's faith-based.
Once it's no longer evidence-based and all actions are moral because God is on your side... there is no evil you won't do, while feeling righteous the whole while.
I think there's a good mix of both sides of that coin - plenty that a genuinely crazy and believe as you've stated, but another plenty that are just amoral and/or evil who just used the "mission from God" bullshit as a cover.
amoral and/or evil
Yes there exist bona fide diagnosable sociopathies and psychopathologies that can lead to "amorality". But they're pretty rare.
Much much more common is the insular thinking of an in-group in an information bubble. Especially, again, when that group values faith above reason
And if we were just talking about the general population at large, I would 100% agree, but I think the "bona fide diagnosable sociopathies and psychopathologies" are significantly overrepresented in people who obtain positions of power - especially the ones that end up in the news for stuff like this.
"sitting US Senators were being surveilled"
That's his indignation. That Senators were being investigated! By the formerly independent non-political office tasked with doing exactly that, in the context of an investigation where each request required justification and evidence.
And if James Comey is allowed to present his case in open court, as he is requesting, we'll actually see that evidence.
I thought this was a good thing until i read it and remembered we’re in the dark timeline again.
Oh, btw, go vote today (and this time next year)
So he’s filing impeachment for exact same thing that T* is doing. M’kay. Got it.
In other news, mirrors are on sale at Target.com and other vendors.
Is CBS already fucked? There's not a single statement from an opposing view in this article.
sure would be nice if dems supported people.
would also be nice if those gop families got on concentration camp monthly mailing lists
