For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

Trump made them send an email did he?

Who are these spineless fucks who just do that? Why not say no? Why resist the clearly authoritarian actions of a total dickhead?

I think a lot of people in these positions are doing what most humans do in crisis and are just looking out for themselves and trying to come out of this whole thing unscathed. I'm not defending it by any means, just pointing it out. Unfortunately for them shit like this always comes back around in the end. They're just delaying the inevitable.

But at the same time these people are cowards.

Wonder how many Nazis used the same excuse. And we have significantly more protection and freedom than their situation. We need some actual spine in this country
