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!

I remember him humbly cleaning up the terrorists' filth. He's such a good man. The kind of man that would terrify Nazis.
This is what real public service looks like.
Yeah but he still accepted half a million dollars in funding from AIPAC, so he could do a lot better.
Dunno how true it is as I haven't looked into it myself, but Mark Kelly says he's the only person in congress who hasn't used AIPAC money.
Either you're a useful idiot for the MAGATS or you are one of them, not sure which is worse.
Hell nah, anybody who accepts money from a country that completely supports and facilitates unambiguously kidnapping people in international waters and raping them, on top of their ongoing genocide, is no friend of yours.
Same argument that the 'centrists' used when they just didn't vote in any of the elections that brought us to this point.
Has he made any policy, voted along lines that supported them, or done anything that indicates he's pushing their agenda?
If the answer is no, and you'd rather him just not have a chance at winning when he's only shown he's a genuinely good representative, then you're the problem... not him taking money for something he's giving nothing in return for.
He's not even up for reelection for another four years, chill.
This is why social media is worse than worthless.
You shouldn't trust anyone here to be commenting in good faith, including these accusations.
Assume each and every comment is trying to manipulate you.
That's how I try and maneuver. Bias is inevitable and propaganda works... so I just do my best to learn. Education is key to beating your personal biases back. I make enough of my own dumb decisions; I don't need anyone else telling me how to feel about something, I can read and do that myself
Andy Kim voted to approve Kristi Noem as DHS Secretary and Marco Rubio as Secretary of State.
Fuck this guy
Maybe he used to be a piece of shit, but people can change. I used to be a piece of shit... slicked back hair, white bathing suit, sloppy steaks, white couch. You would have not liked me back then.
Those confirmation votes were not that long ago...
