    She is right. Republican loyal to Trump are wanting to end our America Democracy. I hope the young people vote.

    “They have to make a decision about our democracy, our flag, our Constitution, the future of our children in a democratic state that is a model to the world,” Pelosi said.

    During a town hall moderated by Fox News host Sean Hannity Tuesday, four-times indicted Trump did not rule out abusing power or seeking retribution from his political opponents if he gets reelected.

      a democratic state that is a model to the world

      Is it still a model for the world, though?

          They were never serious about that, except to weaponize “law and order” to be used against liberals, immigrants, POC, non-xtians, gays, etc…they never meant anything to be applied to themselves.

    Now that was a roller coaster

    1. “Nancy Pelosi”: Huh, wonder what she is up to
    2. “Jan 6”: Oh, new information?
    3. “Inside Job”: Oh god, she has gone insane
    4. “By Donald Trump”: … Oh, no. That actually is accurate. And… nothing new? But I guess it is good to say it

      It seems impossible, but lots of people don’t believe or know the above.

      You do have to state the obvious at times to get to people not otherwise listening.

          Yeah, it doesn’t even say who he thinks is behind it. But judging by his rhetoric he thinks it was the fbi or cia who was behind Jan 6. “Inside job by the fbi” and “inside job by Trump and insane republicans” are two very fucking different things, but we’re gonna pretend they’re the same statement and the media is treating them differently?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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

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.
