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.

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!

“Fox News host and former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro” just doesn’t have the same outrage grabbing ring to it, does it?
Yeah, we should also add reckless speeder, visible alcoholic, election-denying liar, and Trump supporter too.
Oh, and FYI- those are negative qualities.
That’s fine if they’re true - I have no idea who this woman is or what she’s done. All I know is that she is a prosecutor so is qualified for the job of prosecutor.
Trump cabinet meeting
He's such a cryyyyyyyy baby.. da da dadada da
Yet another DUI hire.
Well technically her blood is 200 proof. So she has to stay drunk or you know, die. :\
:) * FTFY
The worst sequel to Speed
Got enough Botox?
That’s historically on par. Always appoint the least qualified sycophant for the job.
This is like an Adam Sandler movie only somehow dumber and less funny
Least qualified? She’s a former prosecutor.
Fair enough, and Rob Schneider is an actor.
That said, I suppose for the purpose of having a proven greedy sycophant in that position, she may be most qualified from the bucket he has available.
I guess I am thinking on more objective terms, like, an AG that would follow the established rules and conventions. Adhering to the constitution and rule of law. If her recent behavior on Fox is any indication, I won’t set my expectations very high.
Yes, Rob Schneider is an actor. He is perfectly qualified to be hired in an acting role, just like how this prosecutor is perfectly qualified to be hired in a prosecutor role.
Yes. I get your point. My perspective was one of seeing another partisan hack, who herself was a defendant of the successful Smartmatic lawsuit because of her stolen election lies, being chosen to assume this role. I concede that defamation doesn’t exactly disqualify her.
I got it in my head that a prosecutor, especially one at that position, should probably be held to a higher standard, but in retrospect I guess that technically doesn’t really matter.
You win
Musk makes Sandler look like Carlin by comparison
"All rise, the dishonorable Judge Winebox presiding."
Are you fucking kidding?
First time?
Country with a second amendment refuses to use it.
Soft on crime.
Great. Another alcoholic.
Another DUI hire
Why don't they just make Fox News part of the governement. We can watch all their faces melt from the evil they create.
Talk ever see the movie Devils Advocate. You know how peoples face take on a kind of hideous look like their personalities are reflected in their face. I'm fucking Charlize Theron over here.
She apparently used to be a judge, but we all know what made him pick them.
Buckle up Buckaroos...
He's going for the alcoholic appointment record.
I dunno man have you ever watched Mad Men? I feel like, before like 1975, people just got wasted all day every day during work hours.
Hm. Good point.
It's kind of weird how he keeps hiring drunks when he's a teetotaler himself.
Maybe he just misses Nixon
Does this belong on Not The Onion?
Being an onion writer must be an absolute nightmare right now
No. No more politics there.
Hahahahahahaha... Ohhhhh god.
Jesus, why will these cunts not just die?
Because apparently God is real and he's actually just a gigantic piece of shit. These people live forever and get rewarded for being absolute scum.
Oh come on.
