Or ruin two random white guys in Chicago... How many hoaxes have they perpetuated so far this year. Four? Their moral high horse is about as big as My Little Pony.
In 2016 I was fully on the Bernie Bus. I was heartbroken that Hillary got the nomination, and I feel he would have beat Trump (people really hated Hillary). But now, while I still like Bernie, I do kind of feel like his moment might have passed. He should remain a big voice but I’m not sure he should be running the cou...
Lol glad someone else noticed that. I’ve lost like 2k karma since I’ve started my crusade against /r/politicalhumor ‘s misinformation campaign. Amazing how simple truths get bombarded by downvotes here. Keep up the good work buddy. Good people appreciate it.
Congress bought the idea. Most Americans were not affected by those tax rates at all. Taxes were not established by the Constitution for regulating economic outcomes between individuals. They were established so the federal government could raise money to operate. The idea that the federal government has the leg...
The pantsuit is Teflon. I don’t get why you are worshipping a lady who lost a layup election to Donald Trump.
This entire sub just wants to downvote those that disagree with them, even reasonable conservative beliefs will get downvoted here. And yet they still call themselves “political” it’s leftist humor at this point. We sacrifice our karma on the cross for the balanced political humor sub we all want.
Trump insults NYT: redditors extremely angry, Trump is enemy of the people AOC insults CNN: redditors rejoice as brave poltician stands up to evil news corporation Good job everyone! they both reactionary gabage
jesus, are bernie supporters going to be just as annoying and cultish as trump ones ? Definitely.
That, and the time before 1913 was 0%. Just because that worked then doesn't mean it will now, these are pointless arguments. Right no one deserves a 70% tax. Outright theft
Lamest "authoritarian" in history. AOC wouldn't even be allowed to speak like this if he was actually an authoritarian. In reality, Trump is simply heading up the executive branch which has little power not given to it by Congress and Democrats are living in a fantasy world where they role play oppressed people while...
Yep looks like Trump is gonna get away with all of it. No more mueller indictments if he’s really finishing up. What an unbelievable travesty. How can someone get away with crimes that don't exist? They only exist in your head
Fake or false propaganda is the enemy of the people. You’re getting the same response to a factual statement. None of the people that have the cookie cutter response probably even live in the states let alone care about what we’re talking about. That actuality of it, like presidents passing laws to make propaganda leg...
I'd say the same to you. It's my job as a PI to run investigations and I know for a fact the media isn't practicing real journalism anymore. You don't have to be a private investigator to see that the media is nothing but a propaganda machine these days. Everyone here on /r/politics have let themselves be blinded by ...
as if that matters one fucking iota. ooo. mass protests. won't Bill Barr be concerned then! gosh. several days of CNN reports! how will he withstand it? Lol was thinking the same thing. We are going to protest and write some strongly worded letters omg !! Get er done
Really? Sex denotes a biological function. That function is either 1. providing the sperm (male) 2. Providing the egg cell and carrying the offspring. That is it. Everything else or inbetween is not a sex, but an accident (harsh, I know). Saying sex is non-binary is like saying "cancer is healthy." I don’t real...
Here come the reflexive moderates to malign a Marxist Jamaican college professor and call him a conservative or a bad father. Literally every other comment in this thread. We need to listen to minorities, unless one is a leftist that says Harris is disingenuous, in which case were going to call him a deadbeat father...
Wow, how much Student Debt would I have to take on to write that kind of word vomit? Alas, you're being downvoted for a dismissive attitude towards college education, which is a shame because I agree the submission statement is poorly written, and I also agree that academics too often get away with being poor writers....
People who compare Smollett to Mueller are disgusting. Trump is only in power because of the Russians and because the white working class is extremely racist. > Trump is only in power because of the Russians Lol, WHAT??? Cite your sources please. The Senate's exhaustive probe on the topic would seem to disagree w...
Diane Abbott, of course Not possible, this would make her the 12th and we know she'd run out of fingers counting that high.
journalists, economists, and historians are not at all the same as scientists. in fact, people in those 3 professions base their careers around asserting and defending their worldview so in other words: yes we should listen to scientists about issues they are experts in, but no we have no obligation to obey pundits A...
Not sad and not true. And without citing specific examples you can't even mount an argument. So you are essentially hoping that people will believe this. Dude they’re still just mad about a loss three years ago. And they’ll be mad in another👌🏻🧖🏿‍♂️
Just saying that ignorance or the perspectives of Trump supporters/voters and the constant insulting of them are both factors that lead to him winning the election. Most right wingers see through the tactic that calling somebody racist/sexist/xphobic is a shitty way to shut down discussion altogether than actually fig...
Geez if only cars had registration and you can own a tank and call it a car. If only you needed license to drive a car. If only your license got suspended for reckless driving. Yeah this comparison is totally valid. Spot on! Honestly I really do think we need to treat guns like cars.
Best Russian Ever edit: lol. people took this seriously Black Communists propagandist were present back in da day.
They aren't scared of her, she is just vocal about her beliefs and is still quite inexperienced which causes her to make mistakes so she makes an easy target. The echo chamber in /r/politics is really remarkable. It's one thing for people not realize how ill-informed she is but the ignorance of the fact that she is a ...
Bernie is a career politician and a multi millionaire with lots of idiot followers, ftfy A man that does not practice what he preaches. Bernie is a fraud.
You guys have such a victim complex. It sort of logically follows, can you imagine anyone who isn't a whiny baby supporting trump?
Everyone has an agenda. Most of the disciplines in the post are open to abuse, same as anything else. Scientists believed eugenics was a good thing, for example, and it was practised in the USA. Journalists certainly do have a narrative, just look at the publicity white on black crime gets, despite the opposite being o...
Didn't markets cause the climate problem? How is betos policy any better than Obama's or anyone before him ie half measures easily subverted by capital interests? I'm asking these questions because though I'm certain nobody here has an answer that doesn't involve banning me or telling me to fuck off back to whatever s...
He has no chance in the primary, either. Then I'm out, heading Green
[OP is obsessed with Jussie.](https://i.imgur.com/md9UJnB.jpg) What's the dude's story? He's blasting that shit all over the place like Jussie raped his brother or something. Seems like he has a rep here. Or should I just quietly back away and be glad to not get involved?
Also, he wasn't the aggressor Yea but he was standing there smiling. Don't you know that's racist nowadays? I mean he was being a white male right in front of all those people. Did you even watch the video?
Sounds like Democrats don't like having to adhere to the standards in which they attempt to hold others. This article is grade A fucking shilling and propaganda.
Hopefully Anderson Vanderbilt Cooper is looking out for us i don't trust that albino dick wad any more any cucker tarlson...
At this point I'm convinced that both sides would vote for a toaster if it ensured that the opposition didn't win. Toaster is smarter than “free” stuff for every one Bernie. That’s forsure
That's all the right has is weaponizing things by ignoring context In case you haven’t noticed, it works for them really well.
I see what looks like a legitimate post from police and no evidence pointing otherwise? Care to share any information for those of us that are apparently un-informed? Benchmade’s website clearly states that they cannot contribute to political campaigns. https://www.benchmade.com/charitable-contributions After diggin...
Trump supporter here, this sub is far cringier than it is funny, but this was relevant, sharp and witty. +1 to the Op’s meme Agree
"Efforts to Stop Investigation"... But did he "Stop the Investigation"? When did the un-masking of the wire tapping on Trump begin? Was it when he was challenging O's birth certificate? 4 years before the election? So 6 years of digging and all we have is allegations of "Efforts to Stop Investigation"... Glad we clea...
This was a terrible interview. Tucker brought this guy onto his show, tried to have a conversation with him, ask him questions, and hear his views (which Tucker sounded sympathetic to), and all this guy did is go on a tirade and accused Tucker and everyone else at Fox News is bought and paid for. Then Tucker was appar...
Trump supporter here, this sub is far cringier than it is funny, but this was relevant, sharp and witty. +1 to the Op’s meme Still downvoted lol
Sounds like a credible source... Entire story is a lie .. pack it up folks.
I have. The deal was rejected thoroughly and she’s been trying to get the EU to back down from their cliff edge by agreeing to backstop changes. Yeah. I don't understand why people are so pissed off about this. They accuse May of being a zealot and refusing to compromise when but refuse to acknowledge that the EU is ...

That great and all dems. But remember that your job isn’t simply to frustrate the Moron. Damage control is only part of the job... How about passing bills that help the American people as well? Get the ball rolling. Trump is already doing that, and dems are against everything Trump is for.
The left can't meme v.2049578357 This is sub is prime cringe and I'm loving it.
In case you haven’t noticed, it works for them really well. anti-intellectualism will always have a place amongst the [right-wing authoritarians](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_authoritarianism).
What exactly do we they need to 'learn'? Kids are aware of gay people. Gay people are aware they are gay. What are these lessons? A diagram of how to hit the g spot in someones arse? Plus at what point will all these side subjects impact their time learning core subjects like English/Maths/Science.
Is it not more that Tucker pointed out the US economy is vastly different so the same tax plan might not necessarily be better? Then Bergman dismissing that claiming it's actually that simple. And then trying to assert that Tuckers reluctance to accept high marginal tax rates was due to cronyism and not political phil...
Remember that time /r/politics mods removed all articles about Jussie Smollett being charged with filing a false police report after faking a hate crime against Trump supporters under the guise that it's "not political" yet it was completely on topic when they bought the narrative? Oh yeah, and here's a list other ha...
Did you guys even read the article? The article uses a report on data from 2017. It wasn't even officially repealed until 2018. This sub is beyond retarded. This sub is filled with paid shills, main reason you are getting down voted for pointing that out.
Cause it’s fake maybe? Why is the coast guard, an American military branch, plotting to assassinate Democrat politicians? On the day after a Hollywood actor with support from top Dems caught hoaxing a hate crime..interesting
So.... they're attracted to animals. Can your dog talk? No? Then they aren't.
>If a single poor person has a smart phone, poverty isn’t real 🇺🇸 The worst part of capitalism is that it's too successful. It makes everyone lose perspective of just how good they have it compared to earlier times (even in their own lifetime). Poor people today are more wealthy than the richest people in the wo...
The man has fulfilled more campaign promises in two years than any other president I can think of!! Pulling out of the Paris climate accord, deregulation(which is directly shown by our soaring stock market), prison reform, veterans choice.

Antifa says hi. Edit: I can’t believe people are actually defending antifa in response to me...this sub is bonkers. Buuurn ha ha. To the poster below(stupid 10-minutes-to-protect-feefs rule): go get some ICE son :)))
How the hell is this world News? We don't even know who the hell Tucker Carlson is. I read every single comment and my guess is that this is completely irrelevant to anyone not from the US. Yet all the idiot libs are downvoting you for not joining in their anti trump lynch mob.

Our rules have always made a distinction between "political" and "politics". In our current climate, many things are "political". To draw some type of distinction and scope for this subreddit, it's necessary to draw the line *somewhere*, and the reality is that wherever we draw that line will make people unhappy. For e...
A liberal already attempted this same crime when they shot up a congressional soft ball practice. Both sides have their crazy ones. The same guy who got shot at that softball game also had someone threaten him. That suspect was arrested [with ammo and bomb building manuals](https://www.nola.com/national_politics/2018/...
This all hinges on McCabe telling the truth. Do we believe him now? idk man he's selling a book... what possible incentives would he have to state an opinion that triggers most of Reddit's confirmation bias??
Mass drug affordability for mundane medical issues but no research, strict rationing, waiting lists for urgent treatment, extremely limited access to specialists and an inefficient bureaucracy. vs Expensive care, a system that is constantly researching and producing new therapies and no waiting lists or rationing onc...
is that such a great idea? empty the weapon without knowing if the threat is over? Fairly certain the threat was over after the 3rd round.
I live in the midwest. We have zero crime, nice jobs, and cost of living is low. Why don't minorities stuck in urban ruts branch out and come live here with us more often? It's an honest question, I want to know why. maybe the reason you have low crime and nice jobs is due in large part to the absence of toxic black c...
I live in the midwest. We have zero crime, nice jobs, and cost of living is low. Why don't minorities stuck in urban ruts branch out and come live here with us more often? It's an honest question, I want to know why. Be careful for what you wish for or that first point might go away.
The left is unhinged or low IQ. According to this logic Hitler and Stalin were good scandal and indictment free citizens but all their enemies were criminals bc they were indicted by the courts and given show trials prior to imprisonment and/or execution. First logical post in here....
maybe the reason you have low crime and nice jobs is due in large part to the absence of toxic black culture Haha, they don’t like the truth. They invented peanut butter!
I’d say more of whatever they did to catch this guy should work. Did they have proof he was going to kill people? A list of names could be just that. Maybe there’s more to it that hasn’t been released yet. The picture with the guns, that’s not uncommon. Loads of people collect guns and have a closest that loo...
Why should I care ? It's twitter... Trump has turned it into 'texting for losers'. Right, why are there Government Twitter Accounts? Twitter is a private company, the government is not entitled to twitter accounts. Next weeks article is going to be Why Can Former White House Officials Still Join the Government Yahoo...
> people Ya. People. Like all people that break laws.
Mental health issues would be covered in his universal health care plan. He supports automatic voter registration and ending gerrymandering, so that would help reduce corruption. His campaign does address "countless other things". Your post makes no sense. Not to mention gun show loop holes. Which result in more crime...
I wouldn't be suprised if Trump sent assassins to kill her Edit: Oh look, I triggered some Drumpf supporters You’re disgusting. And no Trump supporter is happy about this. The wall is to hope we can keep things like this happening in the future, whether you want the wall to go up or not, this stuff happen and it will...
Well, if Hillary was in office you would have gotten an actual criminal. The only difference between trump and Hillary is the gender of the person
The only difference between trump and Hillary is the gender of the person Nah, hillary is a criminal, Trump isn't, he didn't do anything to get impeached.
I pay $12 a week for my insurance, that includes dental, vision, life, disability, etc. What I’m pissed about is that 20% of the each paycheck is going to useless programs like Social Security and Medicare that I don’t need, and am never going to be able to use because politicians on both sides keep dipping into it lik...
r/technicallythetruth I know, all these idiots pretending like it hasn’t been happening since Reagan, and like the Boomers aren’t going to suck dry what’s left off SSB and Medicade
I have to ask... does the timing of this give none of you pause? Nobody spends even a moment wondering that literally the day after a high profile hate crime is demonstrated to be a hoax we have this story pop up with a whole lot of hyperbole and almost nothing in the way of facts? I mean, I know I am pissing into th...
I know, all these idiots pretending like it hasn’t been happening since Reagan, and like the Boomers aren’t going to suck dry what’s left off SSB and Medicade It just doesn’t fit their narrative that governments will save us and make everything great. The people who need to look at their views are socialist utopian th...
Population of Scotland: 5.3 million Population of US: 325.7 million Not saying it’s wrong to try for universal healthcare in the US, but these bastions of “free” healthcare do not have the same population issues as the US, so it’s not really a fair comparison. Why is this not higher up on the responses? Economic s...
What advice could she offer? The only election she has ever won was handed to her on a silver platter. "Drop out and let Bernie take the lead. All this fighting in the party is killing us. Trust me."
This supposed to be humor ? Where is the joke ? The left subs are unfunny places to reside in. Trup bad, funny ha ha ha (robot voice) It's no secret that the far left can't meme. We need a political humor sub that can make people laugh at everything. (please point me to one if it exists!)
Shouldn't all GOP winning elections be contested? Just to make sure... New elections until we win - left-wing mantra
I still think Mueller is going to deliver a limp dick report and we have to suffer this fool for two more years. America usually treats its presidents extremely well. Mueller is a Republican. Why don't people understand this? His purpose was to insulate his president from investigations for 2+ years by sucking them a...
I think this is the opposite. He's not intimidating republicans. He's pleading with them to finally stop putting party before the nation. As long as McConnell is in charge, Schiff can't do anything. And if Mueller's report is a "dud" as ~~everyone~~ several political pundits on MSNBC and CNN are now speculating it to b...
I chuckled a little. That little old woman is tough. Made me laugh a lot, insert `not gonna lie they had us in the first half`. I'm starting to think that this sub isn't what I thought it was.

News flash, election and voter fraud occurs on both sides of the aisle. Stop with this "fuck the right" circle jerk and start demanding equal justice for anyone and any party who does it.

It’s funny where the lines are drawn on PC vs non-PC verbiage. “That sucks (dick)” clearly derives from homophobic/anti-woman sentiment, but no one will ever call you out for it.

Earth to Schiff and any democrat that thinks bipartisanship is still a thing.... the people you are appealing to are worse than Trump. Wake up. They know what Trump is and what he is doing and are using him and your dumb asses to get “their” agenda through. While you are pandering for bipartisanship they are packing th...
I wouldn't exactly jump on Republicans as the sole reason we have become dumber.

It'd also be nice if we stopped treating a document written by a bunch of dudes over a century ago like it's sacred.
