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!

Yep, 15W bulb swinging on a cord in an empty room seems more apt.
"Laser focused" in the same way that a cat could be say to be "laser focused"
Except when my cats automatic food dish goes off he doesn’t nuke it!
I swear it's like he's sundowning. He focuses each day on whatever story confused and frightened him the night before.
Let’s not kid ourselves. He doesn’t remember the night before
I doubt it. It’s conspiracy theory, but anything that Fox News talks about could very well be pre-planned with people like Steven Miller.
They planned out the Afrikaaner bullshit with Musk or Thiel or whoever and brought over a photo op group right away too.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a similar story of admin wanting it, then making news stories to justify it.
I grew up in Nigeria and am here now after an absence, there is a problem in the north with Boko Haram, who are terrorists, however they are not targeting Christians, they are killing people randomly, they will attack Churches, Mosques, schools, etc. They are not waging a holy war against anyone, they are terrorists full stop.
Great, Fox is in charge.
They also were during his first term, but people forget.
The only reason his first term wasn’t worse was because some people in the admin were brave enough to tell him no.
Or stole his papers from his desk
The one guy openly said "you tell him 'we'll look into it' and then don't". Aka let him get distracted by the next shiny object. But now it's the likes of Miller and Vought.
After which they were promptly fired.
Well did you see who is at the ~~defense~~ war
We tend to forget that his voters are the same, to an extent. The only time they realize there is a country called Nigeria is when it shows up in a Fox News segment, and then Something Must Be Done About It TM right away.
From their perspective, he keeps his fingers on the pulse of the world!
When people say trump is like us, they mean totally brainwashed by Fox News lol
So they're actively trying to setup a casus belli for invading Nigeria. This is literally crusade shit.
The Peace of Westphilla is often considered a point in time where the Church lost major political influence over international politics. Nation states would negotiate with each other without the Church being an official mediator. The white christian nationalists behind Trump are trying to undo this. Trump obviously only cares about them in so far as they vote for him, but he's happy to push their idea.
What they could say? If say the right word, lying, they might be forced to settle a multi-million "donation" to the presidential library
So the euphemism truthing=lying
All of a sudden we care about Christians in Nigeria. Oh wait, they have oil.
Thats a win-win
Someone should just keep Sesame Street running when he's able to see the TV.
"I dont like this show, that Count guy is a real show off!"
Ms. Rachel doesn’t need any more hate
He'd see Bert & Ernie and want to cancel Sesame Street out of pure homophobia.
He'd be very emasculated by the size of Big Bird.
Please let him see a TV segment on how Christians in Gaza are being killed by his buddy, "accidentally" or not...
Quick, someone buy ad space for a euthanasia company on Fox. It doesn't have to be a real company.
Are you often angry? Do you suspect your wives have all hated you? Was your cameo in a popular movie sequel unsatisfying? Anxious about your smell or going to prison?
Call today for "the button" and end all your worries!
Perfect. If we can get this made into a commercial using AI and put it on Fox we have a shot at doing an inception. He will think it was his idea.
He's such a senile, old manbaby. Tomorrow's headline is likely to be this guy yelling at a cloud.
Assigning a CPC under the IRFA!
