I’m not a p&e mod, (i am a mod in other forums) but they don’t seem to have logged on, yet, so I’m going to give some general advice/information.

As you already to be new here, i thought I’d let you know that the style in the politics& elections forum is to have fairly narrow topics and keep the discussion to those topics. Whether Biden or Clinton should be indicted isn’t the topic of this thread. Feel free to create a new thread to make a case for either or both of those (make it clear in the first post.) You can even do a link from there to this thread, if you want to catch some eyeballs.

> **Hijacks.** This is, perhaps, the single largest and most important change to the rules in Great Debates and Politics and Elections made in 2020. Staying on topic is a strong goal of Great Debates and Politics and Elections moving forward. Threads exist for a reason. Presumably, the original poster wants to discuss a specific topic. Posts which pull the thread away from that topic are hijacks. Some of these are inadvertent, some are not. Posts that seem intended to steer a discussion away from the original topic may be sanctioned. Hijacks may be, but are not limited to, posts that lead away from a topic, endless questioning, repeatedly asking the same or similar questions once they’ve been answered, and other maneuvers. Whether or not such is occurring is at the sole discretion of the moderation staff and may lead to official sanction.
