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!

Weren't Republicans crying about HIPAA (fixed spelling, thanks!) and shit earlier when asked if they got vaccinations? You guys actually care about sensitive patient health data or what's up?
They want both. Only when it suits them. Because they're cunts.
In conservland, we employ double-think. HIPPA is good. HIPPA is bad. See? It's easy!
Watch, I'll do it again just so you have a good understanding of the technique. The Jews are ruining everything. Isreal can do no wrong. Bam!
I'll vote no for the bill but also take credit for it with my constituents if it passes.
They learn their new script from the writers, and don’t bother with anything from the old one anymore.
*HIPAA
Actually this is a great time to talk about HIPAA, but what isn’t a great time to talk about the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act?
The important thing for Americans to know is this law says they can’t share your information without your express consent, and they have to give you your records in a timely manner when you ask for them.
So if you go to your doctor’s office and ask for all your records, including test results and scans, they have to provide them.
If they share your data without your consent (read those documents carefully who gets it), they have to start dancing to avoid jail time.
Rules for thee, not for me.
This is all about controlling the wimminz out there, most especially any of them with any notion of thinking they are going to be promiscuous and not have to deal with the consequences! Some of the biggest proponents of this, ironically, are other women. Because of something something "bible" and something something "babies".
As for vaccinations, that so-called "concern" was all about cons being able to do whatever the fuck they want, regardless of how much they are superspreaders, because fuck you is why, they can do whatever the hell they want, because "freedom".. Also, they had deep concern over what was being done to Ronald McDonald's chances of re-election, as well as "his" economic numbers.
