Nov 2023 Mod notice:
There may be other, more specific, threads about some aspects of US politics, but this one tends to act as a hub for all sorts of related news and information, so it's usually one of the busiest OTC threads.
If you're new to OTC, it's worth reading the Introduction to On-Topic Conversations
and the On-Topic Conversations debate guidelines
before posting here.
Rumor-based, fear-mongering and/or inflammatory statements that damage the quality of the thread will be thumped. Off-topic posts will also be thumped. Repeat offenders may be suspended.
If time spent moderating this thread remains a distraction from moderation of the wiki itself, the thread will need to be locked. We want to avoid that, so please follow the forum rules
when posting here.
In line with the general forum rules, 'gravedancing' is prohibited here. If you're celebrating someone's death or hoping that they die, your post will get thumped. This rule applies regardless of what the person you're discussing has said or done.

Okay USA, good on you for sticking with the president that knows rape is rape, believes health care should be available for everybody and that same sex couples must have the same rights as heterosexual couples.
And I know someone was asking for stream links, here's the link for CNN's streams

I see no moral inconsistency in legalising weed, then taxing the hell out of it like tobacco.
I kind of felt for Fox a bit. However, I doubt they're going to do any soul searching on their own account over this.
Heaven forfend they point fingers at their own conduct.

They did try to buy more votes. But the US dollar is so bad it cant even buy those now. :P
Also, RE: Marijuana, its been proven that while it messes up your brain, it's arguably safer than Alcohol as high people have less chance of harming others while drunks typically harm or kill many more people.

@drunkgirlfriend Where are you getting your results? The site I'm looking at has resolution no 8223 pretty soundly rejected.
