Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

EPSTEIN! Everyone say it and search online for it every day until he's impeached.

[–] MuskyMelon@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

He's been impeached but that didn't seem to do anything.

Just keep on him about Epstein until he has a massive stroke.

[–] leftthegroup@lemmings.world 12 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Whatever kills him, I really hope it's on tape and preferably broadcast live to help stymie a cover up.

I really wanna watch his life leave this existence.

[–] MuskyMelon@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (2 children)

No, no, no, that's why I want a stroke, not a heart attack. I want him to survive but become feeble. Powerless to do anything but drool and watch every disgusting thing he did unfolded and demolished. Cognizant enough to rage internally but not express himself. That's the justice that he deserves.

To the pain

I'm not that picky. This is probably the best outcome possible, but I'd settle for a well-documented assassination.

To quote Hanover Fiste " hanging is too good for him. Burning is too good for him. He should be cut into itsy bitsy pieces and buried ALIVE!"

I hate what these people have turned me into. I don't want to be that guy who takes joy in someone else's suffering and death, but fuck...

There are some people that the world would be better off without. That's why all those time travelers tried (and failed) to kill Hitler.

This seems scriptable... Maybe tomorrow. Like LOIC but for trending content

The right wing loves ai since the shit they believe in never actually happens. Now they finally have videos to share.

Meanwhile I’ve never seen anyone have to fabricate a photo or video of him doing anything shady, There is already so much real footage to use.

In his 2004 book, “Trump: How To Get Rich,” Trump wrote about taking a call from a man he named “the mysterious Jeffrey.”

“As mysterious as Jeffrey is, he’s one of the few people I know who can get by on just a first name. My staff never asks for a last name in his case, which in a way puts him up there with Elvis. Not that Elvis calls in much these days, but you never know,” Trump wrote.

So Epstein was calling Trump so often that his staff never even had to ask for his last name, is what Im gathering

In a brief call with CNN on Tuesday, President Trump, asked about the wedding photos, responded, “You’ve got to be kidding me,” before repeatedly calling CNN “fake news” and hanging up.

This article is how I found out Cleveland's baseball team changed its name.
