Negotiators aren't there yet on an immigration proposal. But their work is already facing the specter of the former president's pushback as he cruises toward the nomination.

    They are consulting things related to national security with someone who isn’t even in the government? It’s a fucking cult.

    Do Republicans even realize how ridiculous it sounds?

      and probably traitorous?

      I mean, it’s not some rando whose simply not inthe goverment. It’s an insurrectionist asshole whose got no business being consulted at all.

      except maybe what color to paint his jail cell. “which do you hate the most? [ugly left-out-too-long-guacamole-brown] or [bronzer orange with white tiny-had stensiling at the top]”

      It’s more that GOP senators are willing to make a deal, but if Trump gets in front of a microphone and badmouths the deal, it cuts their legs out from under them with the base voters.

    It’s neat how the former president holds greater sway over congress than the current one.

      It loads for me after a few seconds but caused my laptop to slow WAY down the memory usage in Firefox to jump like 6GB during those few seconds.

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!
