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!

"the end of days" part of his quote tells you everything you need to know about this bastard. He thinks he's going to heaven soon, and if you disagree with him, you're not. If course even if there was a heaven, which there's no evidence for and I didn't believe in, he's sure as fuck not going there with his attitude. These idiot "Christians" have never even read their own handbook.

This guy should be stripped of his rank and position and investigated for criminal malfeasance, dereliction of duty, and threatening the public. On top of the lawsuits that should be piling on top of him if he follows through on this threat.

From what I’ve seen over the years and in the lead-up to the election - and frankly, what specifically concerns me about this election - is that there are going to be a LOT of trumpians in a LOT of local and state law enforcement and electoral positions who knowingly and willingly violate all sorts of laws with the interest of interfering in the electoral process at any and all levels to push things towards Trump.

He’s more or less promised to pardon the lot of them. Which, technically, would be within his power if he weasels into office. They’re they’re not only cognizant of their own guilt, but also motivated to follow through on whatever they’re planning, because they know they’re probably already in some very murky legal waters, and for them, the only way “out” is through a Trump win and a (hypothetical, though I expect ultimately vaporware) blanket pardon because they “helped Trump win”.

This is why Trump “loves the uneducated”: they’re statistically easier to scam.
