The president was impeached, and there was no mention of it on HN. To say there is political content on HN is absurd.

Political content is allowed as long as it's on-topic for Hacker News.

Tech-adjacent politics is allowed, and given current politics it has been happening more frequently.

There isn't really a tech angle for the impeachment.

Not just tech-adjacent political content, but intellectually-stimulating political content, too.
