I agree that american politics are in a league of their own, as they end up affecting a lot of people outside of the US. (I'm Canadian, so it's especially true for me!). I think the issue is more about frequency. Like, I get that some events are very relevant (elections, foreign policy, etc). But stuff like federal grants or whatever is... hard to understand without context! Again, I totally get if this was news about civil rights, abortion, or whatever but I just don't see what most people outside of the US can make of information or articles like this. I wouldn't mind an article that summarised or explained the first 10 days of the trump administration or something like that, but there's been a lot of posts like these recently.
