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 posted this the another day, and got downvoted for it.
Tbh, I don't understand why people keep posting it here. We already know. Its preaching to the choir and I've seen it one million times at this point. I hope people are posting it in places where it actually matters lool
This is my only social media, so to speak, but irl I mention this any time someone starts talking about one of his distractions. I try not to be jerky about it, just a casual "that sounds like a distraction from the big pedofile list he is on", that sort of thing.
So yeah, it is kinda preaching to the choir, but I also tend to think of it as keeping this in the forefront of peoples minds. Everything he does is, on some level, a distraction from the Epstein documents he is named in. That seemed to be something he is truly afraid of being released. Even though most of us here already know, agree, and want the files released, the way our news cycle is, it'll be forgotten in a month, I feel like that is what he is counting on. It worked pretty good in his first term, so I guess I'm just trying to keep this in everyone's mind. Maybe it'll make a difference, maybe it won't.
This is state legislators in Oklahoma, they have nothing to do with releasing files at the federal level.
Wacko
This is the stupidest shit I've heard in like a year–I love it.
A Wacko statue would be brilliant
