    Oh, fuck right off with this pro-wrestling level drama. Not one person involved in all this is “going rogue”. Everything, from the “nothing to see here” to the faux outrage is theater to distract from the fact that if Donald Trump wanted the Epstein files to be released, they’d be released.

      I’m all for this drama. This is the one that actually has the MAGA nuts fully pissed. It’s been bumping all the recent pro-Trump news stories that the admin has been trying to seed.

      Trump pandered to the conspiracy nuts, and now they won’t let it go. Anything that gums up Trump’s administration is fine by me.

        That’s a good perspective reminder for me. The shit-throwing tactics are supposed to demoralize us and make us apathetic when we need to show up.

    Bongino is a massive piece of shit. I’m not even going to ask if he has been doing his nut job podcast while in office.

    They will strategically signal they don’t like what Trump is doing about the files. If people turn on Trump because of it they will quickly distance themselves and pretend they never liked him. If Trump survives they will fall back in line.

    Spoiler: Trump will be fine.

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

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!
