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.

Why do you think this would confuse them? Their boss will spend about 30 seconds covering this one morning "I know that NYC did an Executive Order to keep us out of public spaces (room chuckles) but that doesn't carry any legal authority. Ignore it."
I mean they seemingly ignore most other laws so even if this Executive Orders was enforceable, and it's not, what makes you think they wouldn't ignore this as well?
Yeah, I thought of that, but it would be just as easy for someone at the building to be like "I know your boss probably said you can just bust in here, but that's not how the law works. You still need a warrant."
Maybe MAGA will ignore it, but at least you are forcing them to break an actual law, which you can now hold against them. Up until now, we've been expecting them to behave better because it the right thing to do, and they don't care about that, of course.
Now we can expect them to behave better because it's an actual law that we can punish them with. Mamdani has issued the Executive Order, I assume he is willing to enforce it.
Just because Dems in the past have done nothing to stop MAGA, doesn't mean the future Democrats are going to be just as cowardly. The new Dems coming into office are angry, determined, and motivated. They are NOT going to behave the same as the cowardly weaklings from the past.
Once we get past the Midterms, Dems should eliminate the MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries, and elect Congressional leaders who WANT to fight for America and it's citizens.
They're already breaking actual law and What Mamdani has done is just an Executive Order. His EOs are no more "law" than fucking Trump, Obama, or Bush Jr's were.
