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.

Every federal service facing cuts and mass layoffs should do this to raise awareness.
What are they gonna do? Cut your funding and fire your employees?
I wouldn't be surprised baby kingshit wakes up tomorrow has a fit, renames yosemite to america national park and threatens to remove citizenship from anyone who dare use the flag this way.
I'm surprised he didnt already do it for those who kneel during the anthem
The "you must stand for the anthem" EO is likely imminent since The Eagles told trump to go fuck himself and aren't going to go to the white house to celebrate their super bowl win.
They're 2 for 2. Go birds.
Google's already updating all the i18n files as we speak
Its a dangerous tightrope to walk.
There are a LOT of bullshit laws/policies to screw over federal employees. Most people are aware that they can't legally strike but there are a lot of less uniformly applied "behavioral" policies.
And, in a lot of ways, that is likely what musk et al is counting on. Because "Reply to this email so I can wank my broken dick to my power over you by midnight" is VERY questionable and prone to a lot of legal injunctions. But doing something that you can officially be fired for? That makes things easy.
And... it is easy to say "just quit if they are going to fire you". But that means you aren't getting a paycheck. And we as a people have made it increasingly clear that we don't actually have federal employees' backs so...
That'll do it! Finally, someone raising awareness.
I know this is shocking (I don’t mean that sarcastically) but the majority of Americans truly, literally, don’t know the extent of what’s happening. They’ve maybe heard one headline about how Trump is increasing government efficiency and they took it at face value.
Finally people are aware man oh now things will happen right?... Right?
