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!

How easy do we forget when Biden said black people don't know how to use the internet... (Gaslight warning: I am not talking about the tweet alleging that he said that, I am talking about a statement that I heard come out of his mouth with my own ears) or when he said you're not really black if you vote for Trump... Because he's such a great judge of what being black really means?
Biden isn't running anymore. What we remember or forget is irrelevant.
You need to download the latest version of the Republican attack points. Yours are outdated.
You just don't stop do you?
VP Harris chose to run while she was the incumbent Vice President. She is attached to what is commonly known as the Biden-Harris Administration. She had the opportunity to correct his comments or to distance herself from them when he made them. Because she did not, she must face the same penalty every other politician faces. The same standard that you're holding Trump to when he did not distance himself from JD Vance who does not distance himself from Laura Loomer.
Joe Biden corrected himself and said he "shouldn't have been such a wise guy". There was no need for Harris to correct or distance.
Where are Trump, Vance and Loomer's corrections?
Do you see why your equivalence is false?
Spoiler alert: He doesn’t see!
You mean this bit speaking of registrations for the Covid vaccine in 2021?

"The other thing we found is — and I’m sorry to go on, but this is really important to me. The other part — portion is, a lot of people don’t know how to register. Not everybody in the community — in the Hispanic and the African American community, particularly in rural areas that are distant and/or inner-city districts — know how to use — know how to get online to determine how to get in line for that COVID vaccination at the Walgreens or at the particular store.
So we’re also — I’ve committed to spend a billion dollars on public education to help people figure out how they can get in there. That’s why we’re also trying to set up mass vaccination centers, like places in stadiums and the like."
Less about the Internet in general and more about the specific vaccine registration process.
Oh wow you heard it with your own ears??!! Of course those dirty DEMONCRATS probably enlisted BIG TECH to delete all the proof from the internet. Thank God we have you to tell us, without any proof whatsoever, what really happened!
