Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

FUCK AMY KLOBUCHAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! JESUS CHRIST I tucking hate that fucking woman. First Tina Smith and now WALZ?!?! Does their moral clarity upset this fucking nepobaby so much that she needs them GONE? Her two biggest agendas are making sure every Palestinian on Earth is myrdered and bird law. Why why why the fuck do people on this state listen to this fucking ghoul?? She has the political instincts of a fucking washcloth. I was at his launch rally and almost booed when she went up to speak. She probably couldn’t fucking wait to sabotage that progressive shit as soon as she could, without putting nothing across her own fucking chest of fucking course. FUCK AMY KLOBUCHAR!!!!

Spelling, Jesus Christ I am so pissed I can’t even type

Klobuchar is such a clown, exact wrong type of politician for this moment. Milquetoast democrats like her will serve the country up to Trump 3 on a silver platter.

Hospital food klobuchar is and will continue to be the absolute worst Dem candidate. She's an empty shell.

It has been claimed that the scene from Veep (great TV show, by the way) where one of the aides describe how they were shaving the VPs legs under the desk for her was inspired by an actual rumor surrounding Amy Klobuchar
