      It might be that, but I don’t think that makes it any less dangerous as a path to set precedent to start going after any political group that they don’t like.

      Couple that with an illegal, but unchallenged executive order (not implemented yet) to prevent candidates from running, or appearing on ballots who are ‘under investigation’, and the mid-terms could be completely derailed by bogus charges on key candidates, cementing the current administrations strangle-hold.

      They’ve already shown they have to problem doing the exact things they accused the Democrats of doing, so I wouldn’t put this past them at all.

        There are multiple ways they’re ratfucking the 2026 elections already. I’m sure what you describe iw on their menu. Don’t forget taco said he only won PA because, “Elon knows how those vote counting machines work.”

      Do you think it’s natural or does she use dye? Like grey dye for the strip or black dye for the rest of her hair.

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.

  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.
