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!

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Mitch Landrieu, national co-chair of President Biden’s reelection campaign, said in a Sunday interview that former President Trump, the GOP front-runner for the presidential nomination, should not come within 100 miles of the White House, pointing to the 91 felony counts he faces.
“Do you know anybody, much less somebody who’s trying to be president, that has 91 felony counts against them right now in four separate courts, all across the country, brought by an independent legal system?
There’s nobody in America,” Landrieu said in an interview on MSNBC’s “Inside with Jen Psaki.”
Landrieu, who was tasked with implementing President Biden’s landmark infrastructure bill, indicated the Biden campaign intends to target Trump specifically for the legal battles he faces, including the recent $83.3 million verdict a New York jury determined he owes E. Jean Carroll for defaming her.
But she trails Trump in national polling averages by nearly 60 points, according to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ, and last week’s New Hampshire primary was seen as one of Haley’s best chances to assert her dominance in the race.
Landrieu, in the interview, said he was confident the American public will see the 2024 election as a choice between Biden and “the Republican Party of Donald Trump — which is not even a recognizable Republican party to the Republicans that loved Ronald Reagan, or George Bush, or Mitt Romney or Liz Cheney, whoever those people might be.”
