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!

This is incorrect
The supreme court, the one that just overturned Roe v. Wade? That one. Told Texas, that they could not have the razor wire in the water.
What compromise do Republicans want? I say a 50% cut in immigration and giving agents more tools is an improvement to our old system.
Does it bother you that white supremacists would agree?
Unless we are going to go purge style on nazis?
....
Right.
Well if we aren't up for that, we might as well work together to address common issues.
Mainly that asylum seekers are traveling to get to America to find a broken system. We can blame on each other, and finger point, but this system broken because of a lack of compromise.
And it isn't like we can't just twist the nobs of power to allow more immigrants later on once we have more stable footing, a wider majority, and a better designed immigration system.
What's your point? It's called compromise. Obviously we're not going to completely lock the border down to 0 immigration, and obviously we're not going to dissolve the border tomorrow. So you try to work out a deal making the most people happy while minimizing downsides.
Does it bother you that white supremacists would agree? What's your solution to the issue?
