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!

Edit: Apparently it helps to read the full comment and not let your ADHD brain skip the middle part thst gives all of the relevant context. Shit...
How about we throw all of these fucks in prison regardless of political party? Why are you trying to muddy this with politics? I wouldn't care if it was Trump or if it was Bert and Ernie, anyone involved should be prosecuted.
Oh no! Bill Gates, another asshole billionaire is in the files? Throw him in the same dark hole as the rest of them.
Bill Clinton? Yeah, throw him in, too.
Hillary was aware and said nothing? Prison.
Barack Obama had evidence of ongoing abuse and did nothing? Believe it or not, prison.
Bernie Sanders was on the island? Yeah, prison for him, too.
Fuck all of them and fuck politicizing this issue. Anyone involved should be prosecuted.
So far it does seem to be mostly republicans but I don't expect it will remain that way. If it does, I'll be skeptical that we're getting the whole truth.
What the fuck are you even on about?
The photo has been doctored, the original from which its taken has absolutely nothing to do with Epstein and was taken during an event held in the UK.
The original has the King of England in frame and was taken by a press photographer during an international event. Not by some random guy at a grubby epstein island event.
I agree, every single person who was involved with illegal activity with Epstein should be rotting in prison, regardless of who they are.
But showing edited images isn't going to get us there and simply casts doubt on everything else.
I'm talking about... Shit... I read two thirds of your comment and my ADHD brain skipped the middle part. THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!
Shit... Sorry, without the middle context your comment made it sound like you wanted democrats to cover up inclusion of democrats in the files.
Bless you, least you came back and said so. This place is much better than Reddit.
