      To be fair to the piece of shit Fetterman, he ran on a very progressive platform.

      Then he had that stroke and now he’s one of the least progressive members of Congress.

      The question is, was he always a lying sack of shit? Or did the stroke literally change his mind?

        no, i don’t get behind any of those excuses

        I had to move my family away from Swissvale because of that piece of shit and his poison factories and his looting

        he said he was going to clean up the steel mills and then he went back on it, that isn’t democracy

    Fucking I don’t ever want to have a stroke and become like that douchebag. I wish I could get my $100 back that I donated to his campaign.

      The stroke he suffered did a number on him. In a bad way.

        Who would have guessed there’d be actual evidence that brain damage makes you more Republican.

    they are two salient issues of the same desire. placing an embargo on israel could at least slow their roll enough to allow the innocents to shed themselves of hamas and their ilk. or it could have. now, though, those innocents having had to deal with all the aggression thrown directly at them cannot really be faulted for turning away from israel and their supporters

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.

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

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!
