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!

Some real Fox News style headline work. Surprised the AP Board didn't SLAM DeSantis.
I absolutely despise that SLAM is an acceptable word in journalism. How the fuck did that happen?
Give it another couple years and we'll see, "murdered", "destroyed", "annihilated". Journalists need attention to make money so they use the most extreme language they can get away with. Problem is that language loses its urgency when you use it constantly and it isn't as effective at grabbing attention
I think emojis will be the next big thing in journalism.
Yeah. Destroyed and annihilated are already a thing now, I think.
Fox News is not journalism...
I think you're missing the point. Do you think people that write this garbage call themselves journalists? Of course they do but that's irrelevant
The people who wrote that work for Fox.
Actual journalists don't write garbage like that.
yeah they actually do. https://textio.com/blog/the-rise-of-slam-journalism/17517342693
Well that's depressing.
I'm sure it's less common with places like Reuters and AP.
Depressing nevertheless.
Yeah, it is. Also have you noticed how many typos and ads make it into news articles these days? It's bonkers. I even see headlines from huge outlets with typos.
I don't know, this is a pretty humiliating defeat for the guy who called it dangerous and "woke."
DeSantis Ass-Blasted by Psycho Curriculum! Extreme Edition!
God damn lemon stealing Ron!
Or the alternative of DESTROYED, DISMANTLED, or TORE APART
You read it, they disagreed and said why they did, pretty much
I refuse to read that trash
