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.

Well, that took exactly no time at all.
They are speedrunning everything, it seems.
Almost like someone wrote a plan for this. Something he could use as a guide on 2025. So probably just this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gleichschaltung
Ice is at schools and our food supply chain is about to implode bc everyone is scared to show up to work.
Ikr? I was painting a worst case scenario to my spouse yesterday and added "and don't think it would be over in 4 years - the whole point is to stop democracy, so I guarantee in a year or two there will be a bullshit excuse and bam! More years of Trump as a "wartime president" or some other shit"
Not even a fucking week...
This one probably won't even be brought up for a vote. The administration is too new and hasn't fully taken power throughout the federal government. But then they'll introduce it again later, and it will get some votes that everyone will think is just the extreme cultist representatives. Then they'll do it again, and some "mainstream" (if that can even really be applied to current Republicans) will vote on it. But that's "just performative". We know they're just doing it because their base wants it and it won't pass so it's ok, no need to get worked up about it. Then after waves of right wing propaganda justifying it as "not that bad an idea" and the leadership counts their votes, they'll introduce it again and it will pass.
We spent years and years dismissing the attacks on abortion and pretending the people making them were just performing. Then the court killed Roe and now there's a lot of very serious efforts to enact all those things.
