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!

And you don't even try to explain it, so you either don't want to have a real conversation or you're revealing that you're intentionally making no sense.
It doesn't matter how many times I explain it. You're just here to insultingly expect me to buy your shitty excuses.
How this shit:
Never fucking happened. Sure, we'll totally revisit it. And yet nothing fucking happened. No discussion took place. Sinema's thumbs down was the final word on the minimum wage, and that's exactly how you like it.
Now pretend in the worst faith imaginable that I haven't explained it. Pretend you don't understand. Pretend Democrats still have a fucking shred of credibility on wages.
There are people in their 30s who have never seen a minimum wage increase in their working lives, and it's looking like Democrats just want to delay that until everyone gets used to the minimum wage never going up.
Ah you turn to mocking when you are clear as mud. No point in continuing, you're just a troll. Yup and you show that multiple times. It's been a pleasure.
Congratulations on your party's victory over working people. Whichever party it is.
Way to confirm you're a troll.
Democrats said they would revisit the minimum wage. It was a fucking lie and everyone knew it. Democrats now say they want to raise the minimum wage.
They are not trustworthy. You want me to believe a lie and I don't think you believe it yourself.
