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!

Elections have consequences. Americans knew what they voted for. They fucked around and they are going to find out.
Well, the rest of the world will find out also
Europeans seem like they constantly need reminding of this. You people are also fucked for a myriad of reasons
yeah, I don't understand why people think that it will not change anything here, first with the war next door, and we're living on the same earth so the climate will be impacted everywhere not just locally in the US
[edit] also: what do you mean, YOU people?!
It's cool how only the fascists ~~bribed~~ donated to our politicians.
So you actively want to be invaded by Russia? You want to be part of their imperial fascist regime?
NATO is the only thing preventing that, and Putin knows.
Why else do you think Putin spend so much of the Russian Propaganda machine actively making Europe more xenophobic and get so many extremist right-wing governments in play?
Do you think the ones trying to revive the USSR are going to stop at Ukraine?
I'd love for NATO to not exist. But as long as countries are afraid of being invaded by their neighbors, NATO is necessary. Russia is therefore the reason for NATO's existence.
You think Putins imperial Tsarist regime is gonna save you from capitalism? Russian imperialism and western imperialism are two turds from the same ass moron. All these people know how to do is steal land and inflict suffering
