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!

MODERATORS
Hey all, you can go here to find out who your representatives in the House and Senate are and then just type "(person name) official contact" in to your search engine to find out how to email them and let them know what you think of their vote. I sent two angry emails and, surprisingly, one thankful one.
Anyone else think there should be some kind of Nuremberg trial for these people?
Fuck Florida is what our planet is saying. With the things we do, and all the things we ignore, Florida will be gone in like a hundred years. There ate people who are making things worse, and i really don't know how we will recover.
And now we are going to see if those same Republicans vote against FEMA funding before Milton hits and does destruction to the 'Happiest Place On Earth' in Orlando' and are going to need to be voted out a month from now (if their seat is up for election this year).
and faux snooze clip interviewing victims complaining about fema. the duh
Maybe just move people out permanently and settle them down in a location that is not earthquake, fire or flooding prone? Is there such a place in the US?
