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.

I bet it will have dinosaurs and cool jumps and fireworks and no homework.
That's gotta be the dumbest thing I've seen today or maybe even the last week.
Are you sure? There’s so much…
Yeah... There is no way this is more dumb than saying "T bills might not be worth anything"
Dear god, I missed that one. I'll just add it to the pile.
Edit: Holy shit. https://newrepublic.com/article/191367/trump-treasury-default-bond-market
"Flood the zone." Steve Bannon
I laughed at this very loudly.
This is peak r/NotTheOnion.
Here's the bill from Georgia rep Buddy Carter: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1161
You won't be surprised to learn that he's a Republican representing Georgia.
His name is Earl, but he goes by "Buddy."
I honestly don't know which is worse.
I would be so fucking embarrassed to have him as my representative.
So would his constituents, if they could read.
Idiocracy was never more prophetic than it is in our timeline. All it's missing are the stasis coffins.
I wish you guys could have President Camacho. He at least cared about things enough to trust running the country to the smartest man on earth
I'd be quite pleased with President Camacho at this point. He was at least engaged and charismatic. He was interested in making things better and publicly worked towards good things.
In Magaocracy, Muskolini is the smartest
Okay but real talk, what is this designed to distract attention from? There’s gotta be something
The fact that this administration is flat out refusing to comply with judicial decisions. This is literally the "you and whose army" stage of our trip down authoritarian hell where the executive dares the judicial to enforce their decisions.
fuck
Yeah refusing to follow the legislature or the judicial branch. It's so obvious but much of the Pubs refuse to believe it's not how our government works normally. I'm really starting to understand how those are you smarter than a 5th grader shows did well. None of them could pass a basic civics class it seems.
its like they are all 3 years old. I cant get over the idea that these are lawmakers.
Ah, I didnt know he had such love for France..
Hey, I wish the best for you North of Mexico Americans, but watching how you are speed running breaking the whole freaking western block apart, i also kind of wish to see states seceding... california, i have my hopes on you!
/s
What happened with the pentagon you know... the hand controling everything on the shadows... the dudes taking presidents to eternal trips? It's not a thing anymore?
Sorry for my sassiness, i know you are suffering this shit.
Is the map naming stuff separate from the purchase? Are we just going to start renaming other peoples' lands?
So can Canada make a law stating the country to the south shall henceforth be called the Untrustworthy Shithole of America? Will google, apple, etc. show that on the maps for Canadians?
So, is this something that one throws together while sitting on the potty, or are the taxpayers paying someone to put in a fair amount of time and effort to come up with this waste? Just asking.
I mean... beyond the utmost stupidity of the US renaming everything internally. We're basically setting up for everything to work like our measurements system.
There's the solution. we won't actually anex any other countries... but internally in america we'll just call them all "eagleton" and "America's Hat" and "Dirty land where everyones trying to get into america from".
Yea he can discuss it.
The Danish answer will be "Bliv kneppet din orange klovn"
