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!

The wool is slowly lifting from her eyes.
No it isn't. This is typical for the conservative mindset, they are against rights and helping others until an issue touches them or someone close to them personally, they they agree with liberals, but just on that one thing.
If she had a niece or nephew come out as trans she'd suddenly be announcing "hey maybe we don't have this banning trans people from school sports thing right" because it's no longer someone else's problem.
I mean yes, but this is still interesting because, unlike the other ghouls, Green seems to... believe in something?
I would need more data points to draw conclusions. I will say the Epstein files part was surprising. We'll see where she goes on that issue.
You know, you might be on to something here. MTG acts like conservative VOTERS, who are real people who just only feel empathy for those they know personally. Compared to conservative POLITICIANS, who I am convinced are lizards who know only fear and reward, MTG is dangerously one of the real people.
She believes in being in headlines every day. Nothing else matters to her.
She's planning to run for President. And she is much more in touch with popular sentiment than Trump, who doesn't care about elections anymore.
