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.

i think it's so funny how americans think they live in a democracy while one guy just fires whomever he wants.
Was there always a lack of repercussions to illegal actions or were administrations playing nice for the most part?
I'm guessing like with other actions some federal judge will ask to reinstate them when it's far too late
There was a supreme court decision during the current administration that basically said the president can't be held accountable. It's completely insane.
Yeah we in the rest of the world call that a "dictatorship" m'dudes.
It was a lot easier to believe the illusion before the Orange Don.
And validated as just fine by the unelected supreme court.
Good times.
Not just any 'ol democracy, but the bestest one ever!!1!!
It would be incredible and one hell of a historic moment if the Orange Pedophile's reign, which has exposed all our system's flaws, actually resulted in us plugging those holes and updating our political machine to prevent this all from happening again.
But the bottom line is that would require voter action and Americans are dogshit stupid.
i would wholeheartedly wish such a change for you guys.
Plug the holes of centuries of murder and pillage? Can you fix all the countries you've invaded or couped since WWII? Can you bring back all the dead fisherman or those 200 little girls trump killed this year? Can you bring back all the Iraqis, Afghanis, Vietnamese or Koreans?
Fuck your country, man.
Very ironic username.
How original of you.
