"You have committed a crime."
Dangerous words. The kind of words that could get a man killed.

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’s team of youngsters, as first reported by WIRED on Sunday, is Akash Bobba, 21, a student at the University of California, Berkeley; Edward Coristine, 19, a student at Northeastern University in Boston; and Ethan Shaotran, 22, who said in September he was a senior at Harvard.
The ones who actually have degrees, or at least have left college, are: Luke Farritor, 23, who attended the University of Nebraska without graduating; Gautier Cole Killian, a 24-year-old who attended McGill University; and Gavin Kliger, a 25-year-old who attended Berkeley;
The presidential diaper baby is a felon, and the people in charge of government don't even have degrees
Remember that next time an entry level job requires a master's, background check, and 5 years experience
Wait.. I thought it was a crime to name them and share their picture.
Is the Musk Militia (or MM for short) coming for us?
Lol
Musk is an unelected Nazi tearing down the fabric of the country hour by hour. It's incredible that no one can stop the little shit or his team of little shits.
Yeah... It's too bad that the government doesn't have some sort of checks and balances..
Tho there are protests scheduled for tomorrow at your state capitol. But idk that'll help. A
Protests won't fix it, in themselves. But it's important to show up because that shows people they're not alone in resisting this. A big protest encourages, emboldens and connects people. It's one of the steps towards building an effective resistance movement. If everyone says "it won't help, so I won't go" then the movement can't get off the ground.
Not to name them, they are public employees after all, but threatening them or doxing them will get the comments removed.

I always fancied myself as more of a Tzeentch adherent, but I'm down to start adding some skulls to the fucking Skull Throne right about now...
Has anyone tried punching their oh so punchable little faces?

Ageism.
There's reasons why they suck, and it's not because of when they were born
