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.

I feel like losing the protection of the secret service should be part of being tried and convicted of a crime if you are the president.
The secret service will be there to prevent other inmates from beating national secrets out of him.
Trump? Keep secrets?
Well in theory that's why they'd be there....
Fair point, but the rules are not specifically for Trump, they're for any US ex president.
Alright, they're there to prevent him just blurting them out with no prompting whatsoever.
I think you need the Sedation Service for that.
This is why he'll never be in general population.
Trump would likely be segregated from other prisoners (aka solitary confinement) for his own safety & the safety of the guards.
Shit all they have to do is tell him the Democrats said XYZ and he'd tell them why they're wrong.
Is anything that man had access to even a "secret" anymore?
I honestly doubt he remembers anything at this point.
The problem is it makes them an easy target, especially in the future when a conservative court convicts a liberal president over jaywalking or some stupid shit. Slippery slope, I guess is what I'm saying
I mean, it's pretty easy to limit it to felonies.
They know too much to be left without protection.
It's about our safety at that point.
Maybe they let things go down as long as national security isn't at risk?
Edit: getting tired of edits and misspellings introduced to my posts after ive posted them.
Most would but Trump probably cant remember any secrets anyway.
yeah but the principle of the thing, whatever it was, says you shouldn't do that. Things are so bad right now its hard to give a shit.
