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!

first actual uppity, entitled african american ever to exist
It actually hurt to upvote this.
Now you know how the rest of us feel.
The people need to "delete" Musk, along with the rest of their oligarchy.
I'm with him. Deleting the entire Department of Government Efficiency would solve a lot of problems.
Delete musk's life, please
Meanwhile;
"Musk's son declares Trump isn't real president, needs to 'go away'"
Hmmm, maybe it should be:
"Musk's son slams Trump as not real, needs to 'go away'"
his push ... radically cut spending and restructure its priorities.
Restructure what priorities exactly? Radically cut spending, huh? Like the MIC? lmao.
Capitalist media would much rather promote fascist lies than talk about the reality of fascism.
If I made an awkward gesture on live tv and a bunch of people were calling me a nazi because it was exactly a nazi salute, I probably would go out of my way to make sure I didn’t dress in anything that looked Nazi-like in public, but not Musk!
