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!

Summary

Following Donald Trump’s election victory, Republicans are now openly embracing Project 2025, a policy agenda from The Heritage Foundation that outlines sweeping conservative reforms.

Despite Trump’s attempts to distance himself from the project during his campaign due to its extreme proposals—including expanded executive powers, a national abortion ban, stricter contraception limits, harsh immigration policies, and the elimination of agencies like the Department of Education—his allies quickly began celebrating its implementation.

Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and commentator Matt Walsh publicly affirmed the agenda, signaling the GOP's commitment to enacting these controversial policies in Trump’s second term.

I switched to the Libertarian party

I voted for Harris

Make up your mind or stfu and stop trying to bait people.

I’m not bating anyone. I’m a left leaning libertarian and there’s nothing wrong with voting for someone outside my party. You don’t have any right to tell me what not to say. It’s called freedom of speech

[–] BeardedBlaze@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

We're not the government (which is what the free speech is all about). We can judge your opinions all we want.

[–] scripthook@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

That’s right it still I don’t appreciate the hostility. I didn’t vote for Trump or did I just not vote

[–] choco_crispies@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Seriously just stop giving this person a hard time. They voted for what is right, at least. Whether they identify outside of that party, who cares? It's not going to change (and in any case worked in your favor toward) the election outcome, which is what you are actually upset about.

[–] scripthook@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Thank you. It’s not like I voted for Jill Stien or sat at home and did nothing
