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.

Tax payer money!
Huh, so it's not illegal to tell people what the law is after all?
Not yet.
Truly Kafka-esque to try an indict someone for saying "Don't do crimes"
So the shit he threw in the wall didn't stick this time. He will have to try harder next time.
Happy TACO Tuesday, what kind are y'all having today? Normally we do meatless Monday but couldn't this week, so it's potato and black bean tacos with homemade tortillas on tonight's menu.
I could go for some birria tacos, maybe some quesabirrias
sounds very... foreign inspired tbh
(it's a joke, I have zero issues with foreigners or immigration)
"dropped the case" is a bit like saying "you can't fire me, I quit" after having been fired.
Not even a single juror voted to indict.
I man, they could have tried again with a different grand jury like they've done on a few other cases - ultimately losing those too
They could... But you can get 1 out of 20 random people to tell you that the Earth is flat. They couldn't even get one random person to say this was worth bringing to trial.
I'm just saying that they have tried exactly that before for their bullshit charges. Like the sandwich guy. Before finally giving up after the third attempt

Unrelated to anything else, everyone should look up Mussolini's end
Don’t leave us hanging man
So we need a fascist ground council first? Hard pass.
Hey BBC, get a new media partner.

“punishable by death, or watching my justice department trip and fall on their face. Your choice really…”
I’ll have… um… death. Wait, no, watching the justice department trip and fall on their face!
You said death first, naa-ahh, you said death first!
Aw man I can’t believe they’re just going to . . *checks notes* . . . follow the law. !
That drunken Fox News host forgot the law. Have another one, Jeanine!
