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!

As someone who voted for Biden, that's pretty much my experience as well. The U.S. government is telling me to go fuck myself every day. I'm sick of it.
Go_go-gadget Say Literally Anything Other Than "Biden Bad" Challenge (Impossible)
Because he's really not that bad. I'm excited for the new Amtrak lines, personally. The cap on overdraft fees has needed to happen for a long time. And I'm looking into getting solar panels with that 30% federal credit.
(It's always weird to me how the people who most say they want to be completely independent also want to rely on oil companies and the electric grid.)
This from the guy who endlessly defends Israel committing genocide.
Fuck Israel. I defend Biden.
Lol why? A career politician doesn't give a shit about you.
Career politicians are why I haven't been dragged into the street and beaten for any number of things I've done, like have an interracial relationship or treat trans people like human beings.
And I'm lucky, I'm a white male. Others would just be lynched.

You’re right, you shouldn’t vote. Let the rest of us worry about these things, with our silly desire to participate. Believe me, you are better off letting us deal with these things.
I'll be voting 3rd party.
