For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

Here 9 people who will not do no such thing. The Republicans always stick together and follow party lines.

Even if they don't, Trump basically has supreme executive power. The Unitary Executive Theory came true. He could easily declare that "as an official act, these senators are blocking my legislation, so they're out of office."

Ha. Susan 'im sure he's learned his lesson' Collins? Good luck with that.

My thought when I first heard that was, how did he learn a lesson if he did nothing wrong?

Moscow Bitch isn't gonna do shit. He's gonna fall in line and eat Trump's asshole while Trump continues shitting on him and his support. That withered old turtle is gonna die feeling like the new Ted Cruz.

They won’t— but even if they did… THIS is why trump has been going on about recess appointments.

If he’s feeling that they’ll not get through, he’ll force the point to get them in

Collins won’t do shit. “He learned his lesson.”
