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!

I think the LA times wrote a piece about this in the past day or two, the doctoring was done when Trump took office and had the Justice Department redact all references to him "as a private citizen" which is some bullshit. But look at what's already come through, thousands of pages with hundreds of references to Trump, unredacted and incriminating, I wonder if the idiots he hired to scour through the files actually did it, or just cashed their checks and ran like the rest of Elon's DOGE bullshit.
It's safe to assume anything redacted is Trump. They have the burden of proof to say it's not.
"It's not Trump."
"Okay, prove it!"
"UM... oh look, a squirrel!"
If only it were that easy. A conversation with one of them would go something more like this:
"It's not Trump."
"Okay, prove it!"
"I don't need to because THIS IS AMERICA, and it's INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY."
"Like the people arrested by ICE?"
"THEY WERE CRIMINALS!"
"Even the 93% without criminal records?"
"THAT'S FAKE NEWS, LIBTARD"
