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!

Every press question to his regime for the next few days should be do you condemn the President posting a blatantly racist video against a former president. Every question to Trump should be are you a rascist, why did you post the video. Don’t actually care about the dementia ramble Trump will spout. Watching the rest of his regime bend over backwards to defend one president but not another will just be evidence for their future trials
And by doing this, journalists would be taking the focus off:
That's the plan.
I don't follow TV media much, but every time I glance past it, I see stories about that one news readers mother being kidnapped. This country deserves everything it's getting.
Everything is a distraction form everything else.
There needs to be a hardline where pushback begins. Out and out racism seems like a good one based on the other things.
I feel like that is very much the case, and yet its horrifying that it seems to work. Like, how does the average American hear horror story after horror story and not care. Each incident just makes him look worse and worse to me.
Real journalists would be concentrating on the Epstein files instead of promoting the lies of a serial liar.
There are no journalists left to do this thing.
I know
The ones who would will never get an interview.
