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!

Clearly they all see how bad their polling is and want to pretend they "resisted" Trump to hang onto their seats.
It’s their heads they need to hang onto.
Yep, they're starting to make their bail out plans. This was nothing less than a MAGA Death Squad acting as a firing squad against an innocent American citizen on a public street. Certain people are never going to walk away from this. Those who murdered him, and those who gave the orders, will be going to prison, and EVERY other MAGA knows it, and they don't want to go down with this ship.
So they're all going to be throwing whatever scapegoats will stick. Bovino is already gone, and Homan is on his way, so Noem is going to concentrate on destroying FEMA, and Lewandowski will be out.
The big question is Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller, whose name is finally coming up in the conversations about firing. He tries to keep a low profile, but he's front and center on this one. This morning, I heard Eric Smallwell get asked what it would take for him to vote to fund DHS, and he said "Noem fired, Bovino fired, Miller fired." For the first time, he has become a lightning rod, and he's in a very bad storm.
