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!

We need more than that. We need potential 2028 candidates to announce that a future Democratic president should just refuse to fund ICE. If Trump can shut down entire departments by fiat, so can a future Democratic president. If SCOTUS commits the most transparent act of judicial partiality in history and wish to somehow rule that a Democratic president can't do the exact same thing they okayed for Trump? Well tell them to pound sand.
We can't afford another feckless Republican Lite Democrat President placeholder to give us a breather between fascists. We don't need to lie and cheat and steal like MAGAs, we just need a Warrior President who will PLAY HARD BALL, and simply enforce all the laws of this nation, and prosecute MAGAs for their CRIMES, not their politics.
For instance, the Biden FBI had video of Pakled Tom Homan taking a bag with $50K in cash from an undercover FBI agent, in exchange for giving them special favors when Trump was reelected. The MAGA DoJ tossed the case, and said it never happened.
Homan was on Meet The Press this past Sunday, and he denied EVERYTHING, claiming it never happened, there was no cash, etc. I was shocked they even asked him about it, and his denial was comically weak. It's doubtful he'll be allowed on any of these shows in the future, and his effectiveness as a thug is diminishing fast. I predict he'll be one of the first of the Apes to be cut loose.
So IF the Dems can gain control again, we don't have to go after them for their politics, just their crimes and cover-ups. For instance, this Homan cover-up had to go all the way up the ladder, and every single person who was in on the cover up should be charged and prosecuted, which almost certainly includes Bondi, Patel, and the White House. It has nothing to do with their politics, just the cover up of a well-documented CRIME. Throw those charges on the pile.
Play HARD BALL, and charge them with EVERY violation of the law, no matter how small. No deals, no immunity, no mercy, no forgiveness. They get full, maximum sentences, in the worst prisons in America, with no protections. The leaders, and the worst offenders, should be incarcerated in Guantanamo Bay. They are vicious criminals, and should be treated as such.
If Trump's regime is to be removed from office then it's got to happen in the next few months at the latest. It has only been two weeks into 2026 so far and already he has kidnapped the president of another nation, his gestapo have shot multiple innocent people and now he is about to start WW3 over Greenland.
By November it will be far too late to stop him.
The fascists don't care about consistency or fairness. By definiton they're opposed to that.
They will without a doubt block anyone else from doing exactly what they are doing.
Killing multiple regime members on the court or expanding the court are the only two options if we want a supreme court that's capable of upholding the law.
