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 number of comments in here desperate to deflect attention from an open coverup in progress from a proven brutal, corrupt pedophilic president to relatively uninvolved past administrations -- who were conducting active investigations and not trying to close them and then hide the files -- is insane.
There are no mentions of Biden in the Epstein files at all.
But there are tens of thousands (38,000 is the last number I heard) of mentions of Trump in them, and potentially millions of Trump mentions because there are at least 3 million files that have not yet been released. There is a great deal of circumstantial evidence, including the Trumps spending Thanksgiving with Epstein in 2017, that indicate Trump never really broke with Epstein at all, and even if he did, his family did not.
So beware the shouty enraged "Squirrel!" crowd that wants you to look intently at -anything- except this current administration, its active, progressive coverups, and what its pedo-in-chief are doing even as I write this.
Whatever Obama did, whatever Biden did -- or did not do -- doesn't even hold a candle to the countless crimes this regime has done and is still doing today.
Paying attention to what this administration is doing, and to the dates involved, and to the facts in the articles about the missing files, is not the same thing as giving prior administrations a pass.
I have no idea what they did. But under no circumstances am I going to turn my attention away from the one man who is at the very heart of it all, always has been, and still is today.
There's enough blame to go around for all, past and present. But right now, it's happening under our noses, today.
If you are genuinely concerned about justice and the guilty, don't let the angry shouters redirect your rightful rage.
