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!

This is what you voted for protest-non-voters.
non-voting is specifically not voting for anything
See article, this is what protest-non-voters voted for.
no, they didn't. they didn't vote.
Except, they did vote for this. Ok ciao.
no, they didn't. they didn't vote.
I always like to point out that ex-slave Frederick Douglas bypassed a candidate who was strong for Abolition in order to work with Abe Lincoln, who was willing to keep slavery if it meant preserving the Union.
Douglas decided it was smarter for him to back the candidate who was most likely to win, in hopes that Lincoln could be persuaded once in office.
Pragmatism is intolerable to extremists.
Any concession is viewed as total defeat.
Except for actual total defeat, which is seen as a 'moral victory.'
See "Spanish Civil War," "The Black Panthers," and "Rosa Luxemburg"

This comment is straight out of the Republican playbook. There's no blame on previous Republicans because they need to shift the narrative away from them. Anyways I'm convinced the left won the vote and voting machines were tampered with.

People should see the change of hands before the election.
edit: dont think this is out of the republican playbook after discourse, going to do more research before i make claims. https://prri.org/spotlight/breaking-down-the-differences-between-voters-and-non-voters-in-the-2024-election/
Oh fuck right off. The 'your vote means nothing anyway' shit is whats actually out of the playbook. Because its pigs like you that continue to blame the Dems for everything and actually ignore the Republicans.
Dumbass trying to pull the 'no u' childish shit for being lazy as fuck.

Before the election some asshole on Lemmy said if I voted for Harris, I’d have “Palastine blood on my hands.” Well I voted for her anyway because (and I can’t stress this enough) she was the most viable candidate to beat trump, and unlike trump, there might have been a chance to save at least some Palestinian lives.
Well trump won, and it was in part because of those assholes who refused to vote for Harris. The fucker who said that is the one with the blood on his hands.
I am positive that the protest voter campaign was 100% pro-trump. They wanted an Israel victory. Probably paid for by AIPAC.

Thats atrocious if true, and I have no love for trump or ICE, but since this is the DailyBeast I remain somewhat skeptical. And I'm not clicking the link to give them the web traffic.
Anyone want to share the context? Is this really something he did or is it just clickbait editorialization like 85% of what's on that site?

But this time, as the eyes of the world are trained on the U.S. during the soccer World Cup, there is no fanfare. Last year’s operations were announced in advance and defined by officers pouring into Democratic-run cities. In the summer of 2025, the so-called “commander-at-large” Gregory Bovino racked up more than 5,000 arrests in Los Angeles and over 3,000 in greater Chicago, a campaign that was quickly buried under courtroom humiliations.

Can we start blaming Stephen Miller for this shit, he will keep doing it even after trump leaves if he does not.
