    No party listed. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!

      They don’t even mention that he’s a Republican until 7 paragraphs into the article.

          It’s technically not newsworthy, due to how commonly the “R” accompanies elected criminals.

      This is a conspiracy put forth by the liberal media in this country.

      D’s and R’s have both been guilty of this kind of thing. Affiliation doesn’t matter, this is corruption and cronyism. He should be out yesterday. Blind trusts or divesting should be a requirement for entering any elected office.

        I mean, I agree with your stance that corruption is corruption and should be punished regardless of side. But you’re missing the point.

        The point I’m making is that whenever it’s a Democrat being accused, the headline is “Democratic State Representative Caught in Ethics Probe” but when it’s a Republican, suddenly the party isn’t important until seven paragraphs down. It’s shockingly consistent.

          I feel like a lot of the coverage of Eric Adams debunks this. I almost never saw his party affiliation listed in the titles.

          They do, however, mention it in the second paragraph.

            He may be high enough profile that they don’t bother. It’s certainly a counterexample in many cases, but a rare one.

            He’s the mayor of New York. Of course he is a democrat.

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!
