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.

Why haven't we done this already, that's my question every single day for more than a year. Clearly Mr. Tramp isn't trustworthy but somehow our EU leaders keep ending up with his tiny peepee in their mouths
A few months ago people from German chancellor's party CDU visited the US to get advice from Republicans.
Slovene biggest (currently opposition) very right wing party SDS is being taught by American right wingers.
Blacklist of senior US regime collaborators is also a must.
Would help if Russians were banned too.
Why bother? They can simply get their own copy of Mein Kampf.
I'm sure they own it.
Becau$e.
Understatement of the millennium
Geopolitical bullying, blackmail, and everyone likely to achieve significant power being beholden to and thus in favor of preexisting power structures is a combination that impedes the progress of humanity as a whole IMMENSELY.
In addition to @nocteb@feddit.org's and @Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com's comments, the EU is a slow behemoth. It steers like an ocean liner, and apparently the slogan "The USA our friend and partner" has been ingrained for so long it's almost impossible to get out of the rut. Seriously, sometimes it feels like these things take on a life of their own. I mean everybody basically agrees on this one issue, from communist to (neo)libertarian, yet here we are.
Why would they want to tax themselves?
