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!

And who's fault is this old man? Who's job was it to prosecute the domestic terrorist not hand him the reins!?
It's not the president's job to dictate to the justice department or courts who to target.
It is however the president's job to appoint an AG who won't slow roll prosecuting a fascist so he can retake power.
Doesn't seem to be hindering the cunt occupying the big house at the minute.
His job was only to step down after one term like he said he would. Then maybe we could have had a normal election. Instead we got our current timeline. There should have been no question, no debate, … he should have never tried to not step down.
If Nixon had been properly prosecuted, maybe we could have avoided all this
I mean, he did step down after we pressured him on the genocide. Blame Harris for then stepping up and ignoring our calls
No, dont whitewash his crimes. He stepped down after he was caught being incoherent in debates. He has zero regrets about the genocide. He'd do it again if he had the chance. He made Harris promise she would continue all of his policies in exchange for his support.
Him stepping down had literally nothing to do with Israel/Palestine. That's revisionist history.
Nope. Lookup the uncomitted movement.
It was clear he would loose reelection.
