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!

Trump will never stop trying to obstruct justice.
Can't the judge find him in contempt for this? I can't think of a better reason for contempt than trying to influence the investigations by withholding funding.
Sure. But that just proves she’s political!
(In reality not doing so is political. Like how not knocking in his door with a full fbi tactical raid the moment the documents were discovered missing is inherently political.)
Waiting 2 years to prosecute this dipshit was political. They should have brought charges sooner. Instead, they drag their feet into election year, making it appear intentional.
Our government is so fucking incompetent. Dude admits to a crime openly and they still manage to fuck it up.
Merrick Garland 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Is a coward 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Seriously, they should indicted him right when he took his first step out of the White House door.
They should have indicted him right when he took his first step in to the White House door, for violating the Emoluments Clause. Fuckwad was a criminal from day 1, even ignoring the crimes committed before the election.
That's a real, real bad look.
That’s his skill really. He can make ethically correct decisions look corrupt
You had the Justice Department saying "look he committed crimes, but we can't arrest him because he's president - so either impeach him or vote him out, then we'll do something." So why the fuck did they do anything day 1 of him not being president? Dragging their feet made it a bad look. An immediate arrest would have made it look a thousand times better.
When you've racked up 91 federal charges like he has, what does he really have to lose at this point? He's basically at the point of 'Go for Broke', there is no middle ground here. He's either completely screwed or not at all.
A. B. T. Always be Trumpin'.
or...
Trump's gonna Trump.
Favorite slogan?
He'll have to stop trying to obstruct it once he's convicted and imprisoned.
