Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Biden recommends loosening federal restrictions on marijuana

THE HIGHEST FORM OF BIDEN ACHIEVEMENT; A RECCOMENDATION WAS MADE. HOW CAN YOU TANKOIDS POSSIBLY NOT SEE THE INCREDIBLE DECISIVE ACTION WHEN THE MOST POWERFUL MAN IN THE COUNTRY POLITELY MADE A RECCOMENDATION OF THE MOST OBVIOUS SHIT ON EARTH???

By my count there have been 3 January 6's since he took office. Checkmate libs

To quote my liberal friend, “Hey man, any day could be a Jan 6. You don’t need an election to riot like a moron.” How can I argue against such impenetrable reasoning?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 7 months ago

Kind of inspiring tbh

Renewable power is the No. 2 source of electricity in the U.S. — and climbing

No. 1 - Non-renewable power. No. 2 - Renewable power

[–] [email protected] 24 points 7 months ago

And “renewable power” is a shitty term anyway as it excludes nuclear which is very important.

A third of this is just "proposed but unfinalized draft recommendations," another third is taking credit for other people's work, and then the last third is pointless civility crap. Literally nobody has been able to come up with a single thing Biden has done besides the infrastructure bill that isn't building or maintaining infrastructure

[–] [email protected] 23 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Uhh he made the CHIPS act which has so far only resulted in one grant, to a factory making F-35 chips in New Hampshire.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 7 months ago

Half of these are just "warmongers with China"

[–] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago

It must be so demotivating for a White House staffer to dress up Biden's pathetic failures as accomplishments and sell it to the press.
