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.

Congress hasn’t approved war with Iran, so I think we shouldn’t go to war with Iran.

Thankfully for the Epstein class, the US is not a democracy, so whatever the plebs and their AIPAC paid "representatives" think is completely irrelevant.

Guess that seals it. General Caine just told President Bonespurs that he's on track to accomplish his goal.

"Mr. President, sir, if we plan to bomb this new country, we're going to need to 10x the Pentagon budget asap! Otherwise, we'll run out of death machines."

"I can't get that through Congress."

"How about 5x? 2x? 50%?"

"I think we can add another $100B to the Pentagon's budget for this holocaust."

turning to line of lobbyists behind him "Warm up the hot tub at Little Saint James, boys! The President just greenlit Lockhead's next round of bonuses!"

Siphon off the 10B from BoArD oF pEaCe and they'll only need another 90. Easy enough, you could find that between the couch cushions. I'd avoid the one in the VP's office though.

Nobody's going to pay for his sofa slop if they know from whom it came.

Gives me an idea for a heist thriller action thing though: get a small team together to burgle the baby batter bank where their organization's target had made a deposit. The jacked jizz jar is then used to frame their target for some heinous crimes and more plot happens.

Team leader could either be a career criminal doing their One Last Job(tm) or undercover type sent in to foil the plan. Conflict kicks off after the ejaculatory evidence is planted: one of their teammates was actually working against them and swapped it out for a sample from the team leader.

Next Summer:

Wet Work
