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!

Musk is literally hijacking the treasury right now so it's more likely it'll just have the funding cut out from under it.
Trump is literally enacting Project 2025 right now, purging people like crazy, and people are like "What about how things normally work, though?" If it's not clear they're not going to work normally from here on out I don't know what to tell you other than: wake up.
You just can't say "no maintenance has been done." It has, with more planned.
Had we elected Kamala, this was one of the things that would continue to get fixed. Just seems you don't want to give credit where credit is due. Not sure if you're going for a "both sides" angle or what. But if you are, you don't get to conflate that with the current bullshit.
Gonna be real with you: Too little too late coming between Trump's first term and Trump's second.
Accomplishments are only accomplishments if they are seen through to the end. If Trump and Musk gut the funding for half the government overnight to pocket the difference, how's any of that going to happen? And if it doesn't happen, what's there to crow about in terms of accomplishments? Great job, we got two years in on 20+ years of maintenance backlogs.
Keep pretending things are normal or it matters when the whole point is we didn't get shit like that soon enough to keep people's faith in the government. Instead they got mad and voted for a mad clown to tear it all down after we pissed away trillions on pointless wars in the middle east that even conservatives claim they never supported now.
Nobody's gonna care what Biden wanted to do if Trump tears it all down anyway.
Call me in 6 months to let me know how many of those are still on track vs how many suddenly had no money or all their workers stopped showing up.
