For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

Or said another way: the idiots are slowly realizing they've been lied to and used.

He's in office and it's the last time that he is so he's got nothing to lose

Bush won Florida from Roger Stone bullshit in 2000 and Trump tried similar shit to not lose on Jan 6. Republicans don't do a fair and legal transfer of power we'll see what happens

Wait, I thought the violent ones were deep state provocateurs? Why would Trump pardon them?

I thought it was basically just patriots touring the capital.

Says some shouldn't be pardoned. Clickbait headline.

"Some" or "all" probably would have been slightly more accurate, but it's not dishonest as written.

Fair, I suppose.
