politics
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!

Can we deport this guy yet? He meddles in elections and he wasn't even born here. Everyone accused Obama of being foreign but Musk literally is and is undermining our politics.
I say we just nationalize his shit. This asshat has no business owning Twitter or SpaceX. He's a literal threat to national security.
you mean like china did with alibaba
Kinda glad 5g turned up so I could switch off my starlink.
It's still a net positive for the world relative to the cost of laying fibre to every rural property, but they can use 1-2kW a day which seems unnecessary high, and Elon is problematic.
Nah, sending people into exile for their birthplace or taking part in politics is some middle ages shit. Only the bad guys actually want to go back to that. AFAIK he also has US citizenship (among others).
Also, ideally, foreigners taking part in politics should just give you international talking points. If that threatens your country, some safeguards are off. In that case, those should be fixed, so it's no longer a big deal.
Thankfully that's not how the US works. You don't just get to deport citizens because you don't like them. Exiling "undesirables" is what the bad guys do, not the good ones.
no. you don't do that in america
