Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! 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.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

It means the Pedo-in-Chief has fuck-all knowledge of how to do anything so he makes up shit that his sycophants will believe...
"Mission accomplished" but they couldn't get him onto the aircraft carrier
it means hes calling it officially done then going to claim new action in the area is a new conflict and gets another 60 days.
Cuba you mean ??
In addition to Cuba, yes
no still iran but you see he stopped it so now its ended and its a new thing with iran and a new 60 days. this is how he thinks. you know. like a mother trumpin trumphole.
You mean half-time in a football match, where lran has played better than USA ???
It means he's making another statement to manipulate markets on Monday
Not this time!
I fixed it by putting in "sell" order for market open on Monday. Gotta pay for my kid's college tuition.
So ofc this will absolutely be the time the market goes down Monday AM. Make my pain your gain: buy put options
This is all for show. He's violating the constitution because he can. If the war went to the current dysfunctional congress for approval, it would be a mix of "anything for you" and "it's too late to stop now."
It's yet more gaslighting. "This isn't a war, that would be illegal."
A conflict ???????
It means he has embroiled the US in yet another war (after campaigning on "no new wars", because he had to distract from his involvement with sex trafficker J. Epstein.
Now he needs to keep the rhetoric up, because it's becoming increasingly obvious that the Iran War is costing the US dearly.
It's probably already cost Taiwan.
(Unless they can do a deal with Ukraine and Japan to churn out a Gundam Drone Army)
What do you mean ??
Gaza somethingorother....
"Trump says..." so it means literally nothing.
It means that he wasn't going to get an AUMF from Congress in his 60 day window, which is what I pretty much expected. Now it sounds like he's going to try to continue the blockade portion (i.e. not the bombing) but argue that imposing a blockade doesn't constitute deployment of troops, which I suspect isn't going to fly if it comes to court. But we'll see how the legal and political maneuvering plays out.
if it comes to court
🤣
It's Friday. He normally pushes one narrative to lower stock prices on a Friday and then another early in the week to scare the market so prices rise.
It means the same thing as all the other times he says something stupid: he's a senile fuckwit.
Please. You diminish his life goals by failing to include "pedo" and "rapist"
... that the majority of us voters felt was super appropriate to take office a second time, no doubt due to the bang up job he did the first time.
Nothing at all
