News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Yeah but then they won’t have a nose and we’ll have a court case to win so
If SCOTUS did that then I'm sure there would be (checks notes) no consequences whatsoever.
Yeah, I'm not convinced they aren't itching for the right case to come along to strip seperation of church and state to declare an official state religion.
Thanks Obama
Please tell me that's sarcasm? The GOP literally just refused to confirm anyone he nominated.
And he should've gone to war with them over it instead of assuming that he would win support at next election. McConnell's "rationale" was "let the American people decide!"
How? What political calculus results in McConnell releasing the hold?
"calculas"
That's why Dems always lose.
Ok? What magical combination of incentives results in McConnell letting Obama nominate a judge?
Surrounding the Capital with trooos until McConnell does his goddamn job, and meanwhile charging him with treason.
And I dont wanna hear about the goddamn "rules". McConnell bltantly shit all over the Constitution and everyone just fucking sat there and didnt do shit. That's why we have fascism now: pussies whine and do nothing.
What are you going to do? Shoot him? What does Kentucky do then? Do you think the next leader of the Senate is going to roll over? Or is Congress going to impeach that president?
We could speed run a civil war, sure. That's certainly one idea.
