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.

A life snapped in a moment by someone that had no right. She was executed while trying to run away from a terrifying situation, and now her kids also have to endure the way they're talking of their mother and try to process that.
Don't let it be in vain.
The other day I was in the car and I remembered that gruesome video where a brick flies out of the back of a truck and instantly kills a mother in the following car's passenger seat...
My palms got kinda sweaty, and I started thinking about how I would react if that happened to my loved ones.
Then I remembered that I have much more immediate concerns to be worrying about, like getting stopped by ICE for being non-white (despite my citizenship) and getting shot in the face by someone with zero training.
I'm sorry for you people. The US is turning into a country like Nazi Germany and nobody is doing anything.
Now I understand how Hitler managed to raise into power without nobody stopping him.
As a German, what is happening in the US right now is exactly what I was extensively learning in school about, and it's absolutely horrifying. The Trump administration is following Hitler's playbook almost verbatim.
People not as familiar with German history tend to forget that Hitler solidified his absolute rule for about one year from 1933 to 1934. He still could have been stopped in that timeframe. That's where the US is right now with Trump, and time is running out.
If anyone else is interested, I highly recommend watching Babylon Berlin - an excellent show about the 1920-1930s Berlin. The second season specifically is very focused on the rise of Hitler and SA becoming more and more bold.
What do you mean! We constantly get articles about this and that person "being impeachable", or about some Democrats "discussing further steps", or "planning to sue"! LOTS of stuff is being done!
