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!

Now, she was a major player in everything we've done, including passage of legislation which we were told we could never pass. And so she's been, and her, her staff is interlocked with mine in terms of all the things we're doing,

For everyone that said Harris was only VP and had no voice in Gaza and none of it was her decision.

We're doing Fox News, now? Huh.

Anticolonialist, how'd you run across this story? Just reading up on Fox News like all the anticolonialists like to do, and you decided to share this story when you ran across it? Or some other way?

Nah, it's not a legit news source.

According to Fox "News" court testimony, it's not a legitimate news source.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Correct. It is self admitted I believe in the court records that only a fool would take anything said by them as fact.

Fox Propaganda Network: for fascists, by fascists.

Fox News should have been crippled severely by the lawsuit about voting machines.

The guys should have never settled, and that would have dragged the lich Murdock into the light of day to be exposed. Fucking nothing but lies.

I was hearted to hear two old dudes (70s at least) talking today at lunch with the wife about how the lies by Vance and then Trump have put the town of Springfield under the grip of terrorism.

It's getting through to more and more people how horrible they are.

Oh, and Fox News was on above the bar, of course.

Fucking tabloid junk is all it is.

Suddenly everything is Harris' fault now that she is running and Biden isn't.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

These are only damning comments if you have the views that Biden's presidency had been a disaster. So of course Republicans and their news would write negative articles and a Democratic news source would show it as Harris having worked with Biden to get things done.

Nothing to see here really, all Biden said I'd say that they work together for a common goal.

Isn't politics all about coming together, making compromises and try to agree what's best for the country?

For those who attack Fox news as a source they have a point, you won't get factual news from there, it will be very skewed to the right and they will make a story out of nothing for clicks.
