Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!

by her standards of passing off a counterfeit $20*, we should have Trump drawn, quartered and hung.
(*he may not have been aware. around $70 million bills in circulation are counterfeit. 1 in 10k. Or he may have been given the phony bill from somebody else. We don't know because the investigation stopped just as soon as they murdered him.)
I'm gonna be that guy. The word you were looking for is hanged. Stormy Daniels already let us know he is definitely not hung.
This one drives me a little crazy, too, but I think we're on the losing side.
you can always come hang your sign on our side. it’ll be well hanged.
(sorry. Couldn’t resist.)
I'll have all your signs hung for that!
Talk to me, tell me your name! I'm just a link in your daisy chain!
Honestly he probably knew. But that doesn’t mean the police get to fucking execute him in the street.
maybe. maybe not. We won't know now, though. And that's why killing people will never be just. (I'm imperfect. I'd make a few exceptions.)
Honestly, I'm convinced it wasn't counterfeit. The police refused to show any evidence of the bill other than a single photograph. If they actually had it they would have been parading that on fox 24/7. But, yes, even of he had knowingly used a counterfeit bill that doesn't justify execution, let some extra judicial execution.
I wonder if this asshole passed him the bad 20.
shit. I forgot about that.
