    And it doesnt matter if they violate the law.

    They’ve violated the law thousands of times in this past year.

    Violating the law means nothing if theres no will or ability to hold them accountable. Without accountability, the law is worthless.

    The EPA allows pollution. The FDA bans medicine. The Justice Department protects criminals. The IRS audits the poor.

      Congress hasn’t declared war. The country is engaged in illegal military operations.

          The house has brought articles of impeachment twice in 2025. The Republicans refuse to impeach.

          That’s the strange part here. They may have moved too fast. There may not be a reason to have a war, which is what Trump specifically doesn’t want. He wants a war, because he thinks we won’t have elections if we are at war.

    Hey, hey now, listen, don’t worry your silly head about that. Look, the US just illegally kidnapped a head of state. Isn’t that exciting? Go focus on that hot new story, don’t worry about this old nonsense.

    There are no consequences for anyone in the federal government now. Legality is for scholars to debate, not something enforced.

      The whole point of the epstein law is to make it appear there is some political struggle left. Pseudoquences.

      Of all the crimes Trump and MAGA is guilty of, sexually abusing underage girls is the least important. The least consequential for the long term prosperity or even survival of the species. That’s why there is so much focus on this instead on the important things.

      Even if they could “get” Trump because of the pedophilia, it would still be a catastrophic loss. But he’s going to die in office, without ever seeing justice and most of their agenda 2025 will continue and not be reversed even if democrats had full control.

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!
