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!

Magnificent. The photographer really needs to figure out exposure settings.
i think they know exactly how it works
I don't think there's that much to do. Those are simple cameras. I was just being comical.
So was i
My dude, they're mug shots. The priorities are different.
Well yeah but surely it would serve their priorities to get photos of the whole head in a realistic color range?
You mean like this?
Wonderously whimsical photo
I dunno, you see the industrial cameras the DMV and cops use? May not be that fancy.
Yeah, I thought my humor was obvious
I thought it was funny. Though, it's kinda funnier that everyone is having so much trouble understanding that.
Sometimes a joke doesn't work for everyone, but hey at least there's comedy in misunderstanding.
Jenna Ellis and David Schaeffer look thrilled to be here
You can tell exactly who thinks they're getting away with it and who knows they are boned.
Ray Smith looking like a middle-aged fucking Bundy over there
Someone on the instagram did this:
I was under the impression that smiling was not allowed for a mugshot. I guess i was wrong.
What do they do if you refuse to stop smiling? Do they punch you until you stop?
They have a chart to check your financial assets against your skin tone to see how much physical violence is encouraged.
You're going to get Double arrested
Maybe different rules in different states?
The mugshots have already been published.
