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!

Direct Democrat action has led to 3 of those conservative justices currently sitting on SCOTUS
Continuing to send weapons and money is allowing Israel to finish the job.
I’m surprised you’re not defending Russia and blaming the US for Russia’s actions in Ukraine.
I don't defend imperialist regardless of what country they are.

What does a nearly thirty year old article have to do with anything?
The US has know for decades what would happen when they pushed NATO into Ukraine
This is straight up Russian propaganda.
Out of the mouth of US officials?
Do you have any official Nato documents or sources where they say they won’t expand the boundaries?
Why would Russia be so upset about a defensive pact?
Nobody was pushing NATO into Ukraine until Russia invaded Crimea in 2014.
Democratic INACTION. Not action.
Republicans actively placed those judges on the court.
Direct action from Biden helped put Thomas in the bench
No, again, Biden failed to take action which allowed Thomas to be confirmed.

You're repeatedly pushing misinformation here, it's not a good look.
I get that free speech is a thing not to be taken lightly, but I honestly don’t know why this dude isn’t banned for this shit.
He’s admitted to being here to urge people not to vote. Nothing good comes from that and he’s all about misinformation- Almost all the time.
It took me 30 seconds to prove he was bullshittting when he said Schiff and Pelosi were asking Biden to step down. No one removed that propaganda. Seriously…
Why is he still here?
You want nothing more than an echo chamber and everyone not complying to be banned.
You’re an admitted troll here to disrupt our election, yeah. I want people like you gone.
You spread misinformation with nearly every comment you make that is easily disproven. I don’t know why the mods have such patience with you, but you should be thankful.
Telling people they don't have to vote Democrat or they do not have to vote Republican is not trying to disrupt an election.
Disrupting the election process would be demanding that people have to vote for one party and anything else is a wasted vote, that is a form of voter suppression. The same type of voter suppression tactics the RNC use. And you keep invoking mods as a method to silence people that oppose you and your ideology. I thought liberals were supposed to be the ones that took the high road, believed in free speech, and would never think of silencing dissent. Behaviors that they claim only Republicans do
That link is pure speculation.
