Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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 all knew this would happen because of the last time with DeShithead, but this was so much worse/better because so much more was riding on it for both of them.

Now, it is so impossibly embarrassing for both Musk and Trump, the only way forward is for them to like constantly about it, and that is even more embarrassing still since everyone will know they’re lying and why. It’s hilarious!

When Vance’s second drag photo leaked, a commenter on X remarked that it was like a second Christmas in August (presumably referring to the initial Vance drag photo leak as the first Christmas).

Well, this is the third Christmas in August, and it’s delicious!

Best part for me is that both of these rich dickheads literally own social media platforms and they still couldn’t pull this off 🤷‍♂️🤣

It's so much more weird than the first one.

Went to work in drag for Halloween. Holy shit was I scared.

I was young and had beautiful, long hair. Plus I'm skinny. Good start. My girlfriend curled my hair and did my makeup. Borrowed some clothes from her and off I went shaking in my heels.

No one knew who I was. Walked up to two friends in the smoke hole, one of them straight checked me out, looked me over head to toe. Two guys I had worked with for years otherwise ignored me!

One of them walked by my desk thinking, "Shalafi gonna be mad, some chick just took his desk."

Others would walk by my cube and stare for a second. "What are you looking at?", in my deep voice. LMAO, people jumped!

One friend caught me at the urinal with my skirt hiked up. Man man totally lost it.

Won the costume contest that year. Slam. Dunk.
