    Hahahahaha Trump never learns. It backfired before and it will backfire again. Good job buddy, way to piss everyone off right before an election.

    Congress should be locked in a room until they can pass a budget, no leaving for any reason until it is done. Sick of this shit. Their gyms are open during shutdowns, can you believe that?

    Such projection. Trying to drastically change the rules less than two months before Election Day, that’s rigging.

  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
