			=== Politics ===

			# It is permitted to speak about politics or current events on Shabbat if he recieves enjoyment, oneg Shabbat, from doing so.<ref>Trumat Hadeshen 61 writes that it is permitted to speak about politics on Shabbat if he enjoys doing so. His proof is from Smak 281 who writes that it is permitted for children to run on Shabbat since they enjoy doing so. (However, the Smak seems to permit it primarily for another reason; namely, his primary consideration is activities for business and the children aren't running to do business. See Kerem Shlomo siman 1 p. 7 who deals with how Trumat Hadeshen must have understood the Smak.) Shulchan Aruch O.C. 301:2 codifies Smak and Rama O.C. 307:1 codifies the Trumat Hadeshen. Kaf Hachaim 307:11 and Rav Mordechai Eliyahu (Maamar Mordechai Shabbat 69:29) codify this Rama. However, see Kaf Hachaim for the practice of the pious not to rely on this leniency and focus on Torah on Shabbat.</ref>

	# On [[Shabbat]], it is forbidden to say that one is going to do a melacha after [[Shabbat]].<ref>The gemara shabbat 113a-b learns from the pasuk in yeshaya "ודבר דבר" (lit: "and speaking speech") that one's speech on shabbat should be different than during the week. What exactly does this mean? Rashi there says that it's referring to not speaking about business matters. Tosfot argue that this is already included in the other phrase of the pasuk in yeshaya - "ממצוא חפציך" (lit: and seeking your interests) - and therefore interpret it to mean not speaking too much on shabbat in general (even speech which is otherwise permitted).		# On [[Shabbat]], it is forbidden to say that one is going to do a melacha after [[Shabbat]].<ref>The gemara shabbat 113a-b learns from the pasuk in yeshaya "ודבר דבר" (lit: "and speaking speech") that one's speech on shabbat should be different than during the week.
