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!

Now the Biden administration needs to follow through and declare election day a federal holiday.
Isn’t that power assigned to Congress?
Average Americans and thinking the President is all-powerful, name a more iconic duo.
Average americans and thinking that a national holiday means anything. I've worked the majority of the holidays for the past 10 years. They don't even count for overtime unless the policies (sort of contract) of the employer state they do.
Yes, it happens, but the majority of American workers still had Labor Day off this year.
It would have a measurable impact on voter turnout.
The people who can get holidays off are generally the people who have the means to vote otherwise.
Until the last few years, the only time I had holidays off were if I could get someone to switch with me, meaning at least someone was working that day.
Labor day didn't mean shit to me working at fast food, and retail has sales instead of closing.
Walmart ain't closed on labor day and neither is McDonald's.
That's the first and second largest employers in the world, not respecting the holiday literally made for their employees.
Yeah, I sorta think people who have to work on Labor Day might eclipse people with office jobs.
True, however worst thing they could do is impeach him and make Kamala President.
