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!

The US Attorney prosecuting misdemeanors as a priority now? How much more desperate is this adminstation trying to appear?
It’s only a misdemeanor because the injuries sustained were only categorized as boo-boos. If they had been ouchies, we would be looking at felony charges.
You don't understand, he could smell the mustard! He probably hates mustard!
Don forget about the onions!!
Only monsters don't like- oh, right
It was French's mustard, clearly an illegal immigrant sandwich. This Dunn guy was aiding an illegal alien's assault of an officer.
Worse, it was Dijon Mustard, Communist Kenyan Mustard!
JFC these people are such fucking baby clowns.
Woops, put a whole hell of a lot of cayenne peppers in there!
Now... if that's an attack with a chemica agent weapon... what is shooting someone in the face with a pepperball round?
They tried for felony charges. Multiple times. The grand juries (plural) refused to indict.
Yeah, this literally keeps getting laughed out of court.
Thank god they were wearing vest, they could have died!
Double parking is now a life sentence.
It's not about the act itself, but about what it represents: resistance to the new regime. He needs to be made an example of just for that.
This is still the "faking it" phase of "faking it till you make it." Their heroic victim narrative requires a criminal conviction, whatever the charge. So yes, they're desperate, like every con artist is desperate to maintain the facade until they secure the prize.
Yes yes, we all know a conviction won't disprove the obvious fact that they are hysterical infants in media tantrum, but like when she was still a screeching TV head, their Fox News anchor US Attorney is performing for an audience of one.
Sweaty.
