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!

You mean after we killed his father, friends, family members, and bombed his schools that he doesn't want to play ball? Odd.
Who even knows what the real goal is beyond some kind of resource theft / embezzlement / bribes.
Maybe the israelis want generalized instability and a disorganized government and military structure so they have one less threat in the region to their expansion plans.
With this administration, who knows, but Israel and those under its sway have long wanted to do something like this. Remember John McCain, Mr Maverick-y McMaverick, singing about it?
Would not surprise me to learn that PEDOnald wants to personally enrich his crime wave of a family, though. He is that brazen and disgusting and the CUCKservatives stand by and let him do it. He should be in prison already, even before this second term, but the kind of janky shit he's done just the past year should land him in jail as well as his failsons and his son-in-law, too.

The fact that Russia was immediately allowed to sell their sanctioned oil - at inflated prices - is suspicious
My brother, who is in the Air Force, told me that they are telling them this:
I love my brother, but he's being spoon fed some straight up fucking bullshit.
"China is not going electric," their automobile industry says otherwise.
That's what I told him. 50% of cars sold in China are electric.
The funny part is a lot of their oil dependence is because they’re building plastic crap for the US.
Conservative media keeps insisting he's dead, he doesn't exist, or he isn't really in charge.
There was definitely a sense that you could just decapitate the gerontocracy and seize control of the country at gunpoint, much like the US managed in Venezuela, Syria, and Libya. They had Reza Pahlavi all queued up like a next generation Ahmed Chalabi. It does not appear to have fallen out like they'd hoped.
So now Israel and the US are just bombing anything in the country that looks halfway valuable, pretty much out of spite.
