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!

It was no mistake, Bret, you obsequious hack. You were hoping to just pull one over on Harris, a seasoned and talented prosecutor, and she took you to the cleaners for it.

Jon Stewart roasted Tucker Carlson about his bowtie when Jon was a guest so badly that Tucker stopped wearing them.

i'm old enough to remember that

funny enough, that was on CNN, stewart obliterated them and the show was canceled shortly after

Was that the Crossfire episode? Oof. I remember watching that back in the day. Not very often do you see a guest so completely dismantle the toxicity of a show that it gets cancelled very, very shortly thereafter.

Stewart also more or less got Tucker’s original show taken off the air because he fucking CRUCIFIED - but in a hilariously subtle and elegant fashion - on Tucker’s own show when he was invited as a guest.

Oh, it was ultimately a mistake.

It wasn't an error, no. They intended it.

But it was a mistake.

Why do Republicans always look made of plastics? That fake face is so weird

[–] solsangraal 17 points 1 month ago

i guess when your entire identity is based on falsehoods, then it follows that your face is also a falsehood

Schrodinger's fake news: it was only a mistake because he got called out.

What a strange looking dude.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

He looks like a slimy televangelist.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Like his plastic surgeon had to take a call midway through his reconstruction, then came back and said 'shit I'm late for my golf appointment'.

He looks like Kenneth Copeland
