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.

And the court will keep wagging fingers.
A serious judge would deputize a citizen militia to arrest him.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
A serious judge would have ensured a multiple time convicted felon was not permitted to become a dictator in the formerly most powerful country in the world.
Lol that is not within the control of a random individual judge.
It no longer surprises me that murica is in the state it is in. It did at first, I admit. Perhaps it's my age. Or my general belief that people are good and care at least some, for their fellow man. Especially their own families, neighbors and friends regardless of their background.
But that assumption is continually proven wrong lately. People willfully blind themselves to the obvious. They refuse to admit when everything has broken around them. They live in this weird place of denial grasping at things that are no longer effective or even present.
Many of us are well aware that the system has been broken for years and that this was a likely result, but the system also made it very difficult to stop. (The mathematically determined 2 party stem we get with first past the post voting for instance).
Once democrats blew it by giving up local power, they and the country, were done.
Expecting change without forcing it and ensuring it happens. Sitting back and blaming the politicians. You are the citizens who put them in power and you are the citizens who can remove them from that power. No one else. You. Your countrymen. Your families and friends. You.
