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.

The courage this lady has is greater than literally the entire current regime. Insane. She shouldn't need it though!

Dude came at her with a hypo from short range. If he wasn't such a schmuck she may not be here.

Fucked up.

[–] cenzorrll@piefed.ca 100 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Damn, she was ready to go toe-to-toe with that guy.

[–] Biffsbraincell@lemmy.zip 58 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She had a pen in her hand and for a second I thought he was going to get an emergency tracheotomy.

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fox News: Where does she get off defending herself from a would-be attacker. Idk, perhaps the syringe was filled with something nice!

[–] Biffsbraincell@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Violent leftist tries to stab opinionated Zionist at town hall.

Why is the tolerant left so antisemitic?

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 10 points 1 month ago

Walked right toward him, she didn't run like a MAGA coward. She grew up in Somalia, it's probably pretty hard to scare her.

[–] nothingcorporate@lemmy.today 82 points 1 month ago (5 children)

How long until Trump pardons this actual terrorist?

[–] mitkase@lemmy.world 59 points 1 month ago (3 children)

The correct question is, how long before he has a job with ICE?

[–] Leather@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

He seems like the type to already be working there.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 month ago

He won't need to work after he makes a million dollars on gofundme...

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 5 points 1 month ago

he will be leading a "unit"

[–] normalentrance@lemmy.zip 23 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He'll probably get the DOJ to investigate her while he's at it.

[–] TheFogan@programming.dev 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He's already announced investigation into her hasn't he? Claiming her wealth increase when she married a rich dude is suspicious?

[–] normalentrance@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Ugh I hadn't heard that. Gross.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 11 points 1 month ago

Prosecute him under state laws. Trump can't touch him.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

He can be charged with state charges.

[–] ragebutt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 month ago

He already called it a false flag

[–] Earthman_Jim@lemmy.zip 68 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

In the video the dude sounds like he has developmental issues; probably an ICE agent.

[–] SabinStargem@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

If he wasn't before, he will soon be.

[–] PKscope@lemmy.world 47 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Holy shit. What a psychopath. I cringe to think of what was in that syringe.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

My guess is someone under the GOP sent him.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

Directly, probably not. Their incendiary rhetoric is enough to get whackjobs like him to do things like this.

[–] Klox@lemmy.world 41 points 1 month ago

We need her more than ever. Donate again! https://ilhanomar.com/

[–] BigMacHole@sopuli.xyz 34 points 1 month ago (2 children)

THAT man was a PATRIOT!

-People who call Mothers and Nurses Domestic Terrorists!

[–] lechekaflan@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You can see them chiming right in on behalf of their scumlord Donny.

It's so horrible to think people can be so hateful to openly lie to create confusion. They are so vile, there is no coming back from that.

The balls on this one.

Right wing agitators have no place in political discourse

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago (3 children)
[–] caboose2006@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Looks like piss. But I'm curious too, he still had like 1/4 of it left in the syringe.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

Last I heard forensics was still analyzing it.

I saw this clip on YouTube and naturally checked out the comments. Lots of chuds calling it staged. Not as staged as Trump's staged shooting though! 😂

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

We’ll see, if she wears a bandaid on her ear for a few days then is magically healed

Very impressed with how she handled it. Put that moron UNDER the prison.
