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!

Don’t forget about rigging the voting machines!!
Dominion Voting sold to company run by ex-GOP election official
Georgia state election rigged by Republican election officials who wiped the servers clean after lawsuit and FBI investigation in 2017.

And of course, how can we forget about the Florida count being decided by the SCOTUS in favor of Bush when the count in fact showed Gore winning back in 2000!
Rigging and cheating elections is nothing new to the repugs.
And I always thought it should be more telling how the USA is run when you had George Bush, president, father of George Bush, president, but apparently people can't connect the dots.
Or making it a felony if an election candidate ever was fined for jaywalking or some other minor transgression ... perhaps even give them jailtime for it ...
Trump has 34 felonies and SCOTUS forced him to be on the ballot.
And didn't the Constitution plainly say he couldn't legally run, but scotus is not interested in that document constraining them anymore.
14th amendment. He enacted a coup, is straight up not eligible. Scotus decided that whoever wrote that didn't mention how it gets enforced, so whoopsies that part of the amendment is useless.
Whoa whoa whoa we can't ruin young Republican lives over minor transgressions.
It's okay, the laws will only apply to democrats
There will always be a IOKIYAR clause for such things...
