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!

the fact that the White House Communications Director has communication skills on par with a snotty middle schooler is really quite funny. I mean, they all do, but that the communications director sounds like this, you'd think it was an Onion article.
collapsed inline media
Looks 20 years older than his 43 years
He always looks like he's recovering from a bunch of bee stings.
He looks like he's having an allergic reaction to life.
Aww, look at his little chubby baby hands.
He looks great for his age. 43 is quite old in Shar-Pei years
Looks alright for a Sontaran from Dr Who.
Potato in Chief.
Baaaaaaaaahhahahhaa I just recently started rewatching Tennant Who and those Sontarans are hilarious
I've honestly been convinced that doing evil melts your face like the dark side of the force
Take Caroline Levitt... She's so young, and yet in months her face has started to droop. On the other hand, you have people like Mike Johnson and JD Vance... They have the sith eyes, you just instinctively know they're inhuman
Karoline Leavitt. How dare you misspell her name like that? Ks are very important to these people - she only needs two more.
Man, I'm used to not believing his quotes are real, but I wasn't expecting to not believe a pic of him was real. That's really him! Guy probably hasn't seen his own penis in years.
Neither had anyone else, to be fair.
bruh is not long for this world.
It’s a strategic thing too. A significant portion of voters can’t read above a fifth or sixth grade level. Politicians sound like middle schoolers because that is what appeals to their voting base.
Republicans have been targeting the fifth grade level for decades now. Trump's innovation was targeting the third grade level.
It's like the entire administration was recruited on 4chan
There’s the projection. Every fucking time.
bruh, we live in an onion article.
This onion has way too many layers. I'm lost.
And not even like a good one.
Next week he'll claim he fucked her mom.
He’s no Toby Zeigler.
