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!

Yep, me too. Fuck em.
I live in New Hampshire, and these motherfuckers and their asinine policies have fucked up our school system so bad, it might never recover.
They stole one hundred million dollars to give to private schools and line their pockets.
They fucked up the remote learning during the heart of the pandemic.
And a lot of them are free staters and those motherfuckers should be drove into the sea.
Yeah, y'all have a lot to work on in regards to NH legislature https://www.wbur.org/news/2023/03/17/new-hampshire-senate-pass-parents-rights-bill-transgender-students
It’s not like they’ll learn anything… reaction could be “we need to pretend to be less extreme” or “we need to be more extreme and just better at voter suppression”
It's always double down on Trumpism. No need to worry about any attempt at backtracking.
It's a fundamental flaw. They're unable to admit making a mistake. Rather than being a sign of weakness, acknowledging errors is the first step to correcting them. I think this is why they keep failing.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Republican Party’s increasing Trump-era tendency toward more extreme nominees and its struggles to account for the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade have already cost it plenty.
If unpopular GOP nominees in key states had merely matched the political fundamentals, Republicans might have held the Senate for the duration of Joe Biden’s presidency and had a much more significant House majority with which to work today.
Whether Democrats will ultimately tie the chamber and, if so, for how long, is to be determined; the New Hampshire state House’s 400 members make it the third-largest English-speaking legislative body in the world, which means frequent vacancies.
Someone who was apparently in Washington on Jan. 6 because Trump was the only “person who has stood up to Pedophilia, Sex Trafficking of Children, and Satanic Worship,” the candidate posted on Facebook.
After Guzofski’s defeat, Republican state Rep. Ross Berry remarked to the New Hampshire Journal, “If you cozy up to and campaign with former president Donald Trump, you can expect to lose votes.”
“No amount of money, campaigning, or deep roots to your community will overcome the voters’ absolute rejection of Trump-affiliated candidates in New Hampshire,” Berry added.
The original article contains 687 words, the summary contains 197 words. Saved 71%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
I remember keenly how the day after January 6th, even Republicans knew what happened. Then when they saw their psychotic base wanted to remain blind and stupid, they developed a convenient amnesia.
