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!

It reminds me of Last Week Tonight when the last elections were coming up.
You can tell Cody is both wanting to make a comedy show and also scream into a pillow. I think what they're doing is good, but I imagine the research and writing process is agonizing.
They need to get Worst Year Ever back together, I think they needed each other
I don't need to know about the Kardassians or any other reality TV shite. I just watch US politics. It's an hilarious clown show from beginning to end.
Having been here my whole life, it's ridiculous how much it's gotten sillier and sillier over time.

Reality shows are fake anyway.
I love these guys but their hyper intense thing is a bit too much.
Especially for the 40+ mins videos.
If they just did the quieter weird stuff (or just no weird stuff) I'd watch every single one.
But I need to be in such a specific mood to handle these, and I got sure can't send them to other people to get informed.
I agree, I found it hard to deal with too. But I really got comfortable with their style when John Oliver's show was paused due to the strike. Some More News really presents some wonderfully researched and presented information, they're style can be a big strong but it's just their shtick to stand out, but still give good content.
Since I got used to it, I've been watching every new video and I enjoy it. But man, I too wish they'd tone it down a bit.
