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 can only hope. ‘Bout time we smelt the rotting carcasses on either side of the room

It is:

There will be no US of A 8y after Trump is crowned GEOTUS:

( GEOTUS means "God Emperor Of The United States", and you can go on wikipedia & search for GEOTUS, and you'll be surrepticiously landed on the Donald Trump page,

because they hid that there IS a GEOTUS page on wikipedia, in order to not have it show-up in the search-statistics, and did-so by altering their search-logic for that special-case.

The US Civil War Part2 will have butchered faaar too much of the population & country,

& the eastern-seaboard should get chopped-off by a tsunami as sea-level-rise floods-into ( thereby lubricating ) the unstable Canary Island ( volcanic: it isn't solid rock, it is zillions of pieces of rock formed-onto each-other, but not bonded-together, so it's completely fragile ), and the extra-kinetic-energy of hurricanes/cyclones has obviously jumped, lately, that energy only has to bear on that island, and the ( already modeled ) tsunami will then be shoved into existence by a cubic-km of rock shoving the Atlantic our way.

As Scientific American published awhile ago that +2C means 6m sea-level-rise, and we've already crossed the +1.52C level, in the past 12 months, so ClimatePunctuation is going to continue accelerating WAAAY quicker than all the bullshit "consensus" models said, and we're going to continue ignoring/denying everything until it's bullets-in-everbody-time, because That's How We "Cope".

The Great Filter, demonstrated, systematically.

Stupid waste of potential & opportunity, but that's the best we could do, so our action proves.

Corrution won't permit objectivity to control anything in our world, and we .. accommodate that.

Until we're gone.
