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!

Depose the mad traitor king, or the starving mob will find a way.

Hang him by his feet from the white house balcony.

I do appreciate the Mussolini ending, but...

What I have been saying since Jan 6th:

Bury him alive at the feet of Lincoln, maybe a 20 foot deep shaft, just throw him in, then the concrete.

All that would indicate anything was amiss, would be an engraved gold plate on the floor, on top of the shaft, reading SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS.

... A more patriotic spin on the steretypical real estate developer method of assasination.

Leave him encased in his own disgrace, literally under Lincoln's feet, the only suitable place for a racist insurrectionist mob boss.

And also, the plate is gold... meant to be stepped on, and the engraving wear away with time.

Sounds good, only I think lead with gold leaf would be more fitting.

I’d say we should eat him, but he looks gamey as fuck.

There’s another reality where the hungry masses swarm what’s left of the White House like macrophages and destroy the rot inside, demonstrating with great visibility the it can be done, triggering a cascade of fascism FAFO worldwide.

Sadly, we seem to be in the cancer timeline where they take all the resources and starve us all to death instead.
