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:
- *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!*

MAGA is a terrorist organization.
Not if they seize control of the state. Then they become freedom fighters, and new authors of history.
You should probably vote about it...
We’re trying to vote about it but somebody keeps setting the ballot boxes on fire
Well the front fell off you see.
And when that isn't enough, they'll use the ballot box fires as justification to call the election invalid.
They're terrorists no matter what.
Of course it was always projection with magas.
idk if every state allows this, but where I live, I go directly inside the courthouse building and drop my absentee ballot off in their elections office, they do allow it. my ballot stays inside of a locked, secured building. there's outdoor collections too, but they are a open target to vandals. I'd hate to hear about a fire at the collection box I used!
Unfortunately, the most secure boxes are also closed and unavailable for those of us who work day shift.
They mean heightened domestic terrorism
I'm looking at a picture of the suspect car in PNW, appears to be a gen 1 Volvo S60 (2000-2009), black or dark blue.
Good news from federal courts for once, after all the news from the Fifth Circuit casting aside any semblance of upholding justice.
I haven't heard any, is there a reference I'm missing in the article or elsewhere?
