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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Saying you failed and apologizing now is worthless.

Primary this guy and the other six that voted for this. None of these guys are people that we should be tolerating in the Democratic party with this kind of morality, callousness for human life, and such short sighted vision.

Seems to be the general consensus for every single fucking thing we try to do to oppose this regime... one way or another, key morons that were told over and fucking over that a particular item would be a major issue, they cross the god damn aisle and only then regret it after it's too late. They just keep giving this regime the power and strength it needs to deem them obsolete. They just put the damn gun to their own heads and plant a bomb in the way out to take us all with them.

Because it's all performative. It's just lip service. Tom Suozzi and these others don't give a shit, they just want to remain in power. I despise the DNC almost as much as the RNC and MAGA.

The down voters need to wake up. Just because the DNC was the lesser of two evils, doesn’t mean that they haven’t been a deliberate stumbling block too.
