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!

well when the maga does the crime they get the blame. facts over feelings. plenty of members of congress were in the capitol building that day. mike pence was there was well. but sure you can believe whatever nonsense fox "news" has told you.
The only reliable news are the ones that agree with me
Never mind the evidence and testimony, I'm told there were people in there and they were under actual threat lmao
"the only reliable news are the ones that agree with me" sure it is buddy. sure it is. thats why you believe no one was in the capitol building and that it was just tourists on a normal tourist visit.
hey next time im in your town how about i visit your house and treat it the same. after all its just a normal tourist visit. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Notice how you keep saying no one when I said no official
That's how your kind gas light people, it's so disingenuous it's disgusting to anyone with half a brain that can see you little facists running your mouth
dude there were members of congress in the senate chamber. youre lying through your teeth. there were congressional aides in there. there were other people in there doing their jobs. there were officials there. there was mike pence there. nancy pelosi was there. there were officials there.
She wasn't in that building so how can anyone believe anything you said was true

But I'm sure a video of that day showing her not in that building will be dismissed as russian misinformation by you facists
the supporter of a coup leader is calling me a fascist. rofl.
