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!

yes, she has given strong lip service to women's rights, but the Democrats have always done that with everything
lip service with no plans or intent
I don't disagree about her disappointing stance on immigration but you're smoking something if you don't think she's going to fight for women's reproductive autonomy.
disappointing stance? it is the exact same response as Trump
strictly controlled closed borders with no clear path to citizenship
Yea, that's fucking disappointing. I'm not saying Trump is better... I'm disappointed Harris is that far to the right on what should be a common sense issue. I'd much rather we destroy shitty tools like the H1B visa that lock in immigrants to a single employer denying them any bargaining power for wages and other benefits and depriving domestic workers of bargaining power by undercutting them than keep out people fleeing unstable countries that America unstablized who mostly gravitate to low paying jobs that Americans don't want anyways.
Immigration policy in the US is fucking dumb.
And the dems have a great track record supporting and expanding Women’s rights. It was the GOP and their judges who overturned Roe while restricting women’s rights in every state they can.
Only of you get your news straight from Trump. Here, in reality, that’s obviously not true

You would think 50 years of lip service about women's rights might convince people they are not telling the truth in their intentions.
