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!

MTG is a singular person that is part of - and a leader of- a violent terrorist movement. It is absolutely his job to slap her down.
Y'all really want the president to argue with every crazy motherfucker that wants his spotlight, huh?
Shouldn't he be doing a sit down with Tucker Carlson, go on Bannons podcast? Hit up the OAN circuit? Maybe go on some "skeptic" YouTuber channels? They are all crazy terrorist supporters, so he needs to go toe to toe with them nonstop too, right?
MTG is a piece of shit that got her start in politics by stalking and harrasing the parkland survivors. Engaging with her is exactly what gives her power. Why are you so insistent the most powerful person on earth, who has way more fucking important things to do than argue with loons, go and give her his spotlight?
Boy, you REALLY dont get this, do you?
She is part of an anti-American movement. His literal job is to crush that movement. It's in his job description. It's not a one-on-one thing.
This sounds like those dumbasses who think a rebellion is two armies meeting on a vattle field. It isn't, and thats why the US army gets its ass kicked on the reg.
Uh huh. Yall cheering for Trumps "Twitter dunks" to be what the president's job is now, and youre saying I'm confused about what the role is about.
Sure thing man.
That's not at all what I am endorsing. I am endorsing punishment for anti-American activism.
You REALLY do not understand this.
