A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

Senate Republicans: "Congress needs to have a say in military action! We're going to vote to ensure it happens!"

Trump to Senate Republicans: "Don't vote for this or I'll have you primaried and have my supporters make death threats to you and your family."

Senate Republicans: "We got assurances from the administration that we'll be included in any future actions, so no need for this anymore."

Pathetic.
