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!

Cowardis, treason, and plot. I see no reason why this cowardly treason should ever be forgot.
I don't know guys, I've heard a lot people saying he's totally not to blame since he himself voted against it (yes, seriously).
So which party is still fucking me over harder? Oh yeah, as always, Republicans. So I'm going to continue to vote against them
The Republicans are the shady people who pull you into a dark alley and fuck you.
The Democrats are the people who see the Republicans fucking you in a dark alley, look concerned, and say they'll "call for help in a few minutes".
You should definitely do that. But also stay informed and help out in any efforts to primary these sellouts and help install real progressives at every level of the Democrat party.
The blue billionaires will save us bro trust me bro. Just wait to the midterms bro one more millionaire Democrat in power and we defeat facism trust time bro.
IDK, it seemed pretty clear to me from the start that the Democrats would only hold out until about mid November. The just wanted to wait long enough for people to start seeing their insurance rates for next year. Less than actually wanting to fix the problem, they wanted people to remember who was fighting for when the 2026 election year starts.
Of course. Why else would it be dems not going for reelection. Just like republicans growing a spine and criticizing trump after they’ve resigned, the dems letting others vote for something unpopular and then resign so it’s “not the dem’s fault.”
he has no control over his party
He can't actually order them to do anything. One might argue that if he was a better leader, he could have persuaded them to stick with the plan longer, but maybe he had already done that weeks ago and this is the longest that anyone could have persuaded them to hold out. It is the longest shutdown ever, after all...
This is the game. This is how the game is played, everywhere, all over the world, at every level of government.
