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!

Why don't we start piss testing all of our elected officials like a dozen times a month?
That's only for the poor and the working class.
I truly think the amount of people willing to do the awful shit for trump is finite. That's why no one's getting fired and why doge even hired back a dude who was pretty blatantly racist.
If we can’t hold them up to treason charges, what makes you think a drug charge would matter?
Because we're taking the piss enough as is
One wonders if the same people who want people on welfare to be drug tested would be able to piss clean themselves…
Put 'em in a pool, we'll fill it with piss and see how it goes from there. That kind of test?
Yes, if they float they are obviously a witch
They be loading those deportation planes up with coke coming back from El Salvador to celebrate another successful round of human rights violations
This actually makes a lot of sense.
Really? This quintessential 80s businessman type used cocaine? I'm shocked.
Well I think 80's business types would
-
Have more respect for the Institute that is the Pentagon.
-
Be more professional than this dweeb.
Not by much but they would have some moral standards concerning their appearance in media.
I would honestly be shocked if Pete wasn't on coke. Genuinely would be surprised
Can't wait until he gets boneitis.
It's hard to believe isn't it? Must just be the work of some mudslinging disgruntled former employees.
Hopefully, he is so busy being the quintessential '80s guy he forgets to cure his Boneitis
And? I wouldn't be surprised if they were cooking meth in the oval. This admin would've been impeached and jailed in any other timeline what the fuck is nose candy going to change here?
Nah they have pure coke, meth is for poor people.
Pure coke, or Adderall. Ketemine seems to also be popular with this administration.
Their dealers know how stupid they are, so that cola has been stepped on like mad.
[Joe Kasper, Hegseth's soon-to-former chief of staff] reportedly derailed a meeting with a veterans’ group by telling a story about a night out at a Washington, D.C. strip club. He was also said to have begun a meeting by saying, “Can I just tell everyone around this table that I just took an enormous s--t right before coming in here?”
Kasper was a Trump nominee. Only the best people.
Kasper will remain an adviser at the Pentagon in a special government employee role, limited to working no more than 130 days a year.
And also consequences are for show, he's not really fired.
You love to hear it
