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!

Did he try pulling himself up by the bootstraps? What about not having an iPhone? Starbucks coffee? Avocado toasts?
One of the greatest money saving tips we got up here in Canada is that cancelling Disney plus ($12/month plus taxes) would help struggling families deal with inflation and make ends meet.
Thanks chrystia freeland, you out of touch ghoul. That $12 a month will surely overcome the several hundred dollars a month increase in costs to food, shelter, and gasoline/heat since 2019.
To be non partisan, the federal leader of the opposition also suggested Canada could opt out of inflation by embracing bitcoin, right before it Collapsed 60%
As you can see, the people in charge up here have nothing but the best, most well thought out advice for the average Canadian and those bootstraps will be pulled up any day now.
I feel your pain. Canadian conservatives are doing exactly the same BS as the ones in the US. Conservatism is the problem, no matter what is the name of party/country/society.
I wish more people understood this. Conservatism is the problem in Iran and China too.
And they're being weird about it too, from what I've heard.
It's like they forgot that the US and Canada are different countries
I bet he's even got a fridge!
This reference will never not make my blood boil. Fuck Fox ”news”.
What's the reference?
For a while, mainstream/right wing news especially told voters that many people under the poverty line couldn't be that badly off since such and such a percent of them had basic conveniences in their living places, like fridges, dishwasher, etc. It was one of those 90s strategies to create resentment against public programs.
Maybe his public defender will suggest to take the plea since their caseload is too large
Come on, give the guy a break. He's trying! Everyone knows he's only buying economy hair dye.
He should get kickbacks from four seasons landscaping, after all he was their point man.
Jesus, remember when Four Seasons Total Landscaping was the most ridiculous thing?
I think it's still the most ridiculous thing. Either that, or farting on Jenna Ellis during the legislative hearing and giving her COVID. I'm really not sure which of those is more ridiculous.
New band bame: COVID Farts
He did save a bundle by not getting his lower set of teeth fixed, he's trying, lol
