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.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled President Trump may not deploy the National Guard to the Chicago area for now amid his push for military troops to patrol the streets of Democratic-led cities, a major loss for the president at the high court.

After more than two months of consideration, the court refused to pause a district judge’s ruling temporarily blocking hundreds of National Guard members from being federalized and deployed across Illinois, rejecting the government’s emergency request.

Yeah, that's kind of what I was asking. I know that a lower court has also ruled that deploying them in DC was also illegal...pending appeal. And if I recall, they said the same thing about California...also still pending appeal, or something.

It really does seem like they're going to have to get the Super Court involved in every state, separately...even though the rulings are all based on the same arguments.

Well to be fair, SCOTUS hasn’t ruled on the merits yet. This decision just upholds the lower court’s TRO.

If the court grants cert for the actual case, we’d see some kind of precedent established. It’s very unlikely they’d rule narrowly and limit the scope to a single deployment since the administration’s argument is consistent across all of them.

Using national guard forces to protect federal buildings and employees because local law enforcement can’t or won’t

At some point, one of the PedoCon justices will make a statement about the kind of case they'd like to handle, and some MAGA law firm will craft a case with the proper language, and SCOTUS will approve it, and we'll all be under military control.
