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!

Did they really not read Project 2025? Why didn't they figure this shit out in November and have a strategy ready to go?
This is why people end up supporting Republicans: they want to do heinous shit, but at least they hit the ground running with it while Democrats sit on their asses looking dumbfounded.
I'm perpetually amazed that they never seem to even consider contingencies. No matter how much Republicans telegraph their next move, it's still a surprise. The party and politicians take in so much money and still treat running the country as a hobby.
The majority of Democrats are manufactured opposition, bought and paid for by the same oligarchs as all the R's. Bernie, AOC, and a few % of real ones can't save you from hundreds of corporate whores.
It's been this way for decades, and "liberals" still aren't getting it, even as the empire crumbles around them and the fascist dictatorship is implemented.
It’s not a surprise, but if they act like it is, they can pretend that they’re just as shocked as we are when it happens! We’re all in this together! Ignore the fact that most policies that benefit the rich will benefit members of the DNC, so they have less of an incentive to actually DO anything.
You know what, you’re right! The R’s are getting shit done, they’re executing their dream. It’s evil but they’re achieving their goals, unlike the D’s who don’t have a bigger plan, no vision and no execution. That’s the one thing I respect about the R’s. Their efficiency - fucking everything up in days. I mean it’s kind of impressive. I thought it would take us at least 6 months to get here. Boy o boy did I underestimate.
Remember Drump said he had never heard of 2025. The media protected and insulated him from dealing with reality. You want to blame someone but it is clear you are blaming the wrong people.
Dishonesty is the Hallmark of the 21st Century I suppose. It is sad seeing people defend it though.
Almost as if Dems and all their little bootlickers like PugJesus are complicit, and outright accomplices, in fascism.
Weird how reality has a 100% success rate of proving the leftists were correct all along, since the invention of Marxism-Leninism.
But do try again, liberals. Maybe you’ll get em this time.
Yep ok you're right everyone give up and roll over so the fascists can have their way with the country
Fuck off nazi enabler idiot.
