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.

What's with this in the article?

she was asked to answer xxxx’s line of questioning

A placeholder that got missed by the ai editor?

[–] tonytins@pawb.social 35 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Be funny if MTG said that while in the UK.

[–] thr0w4w4y2@sh.itjust.works 16 points 11 months ago (2 children)

she would not be welcome in the UK. We do not tolerate fascism here.

[–] punksnotdead@slrpnk.net 22 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Lol I wish. A fascist party got the third most votes at the last election.

[–] thr0w4w4y2@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

they won five out of 650 seats, not even 1% 🙂

[–] RustyShackleford@programming.dev 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not a lot. Should be zero. But at least it's below 10.

[–] thr0w4w4y2@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If they had zero support there would be no need for places to sell milkshakes.

[–] Sturgist@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago

I'm honestly shocked that people manage to find a McDonald's with a functioning milkshake machine often enough to turn it into a tradition

If that was true you wouldn’t even entertain the thought of letting the states into the commonwealth

The good news is, Marjorie Taylor Greene's craziness may be starting to wear her constituents' patience thin.

Although that is great news, I hope we're all taking notes about how far Republicans are willing to let their elected officials go before them being pieces of shit finally matters more than owning the libs. Quite fucking far, like destruction of the nation far. (Trump still polling at 92% approval with Republicans)

If we have free and fair elections again, let's all please remember this. I plan to reach the end of natural life expectancy without ever pulling a lever for R, not even for the tiniest of local positions. They showed us what they do when they get power in 2017, then had four years to plan, and now are really showing us where their values are. Turns out their values are exactly as shitty as we expected.

R is the party of destruction, intentional harm, and bigotry. It's all they do.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

She is absolutely the biggest piece of shit when it comes to common decency

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago

As the reporter, I would write a big general article about the unhingedness of American politicians, with MTG as a shining example, and Sarah Palin as supporting evidence.

[–] nulluser@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

You can't unleash an unhinged tirade if it was never hinged or leashed to begin with.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

Fuck that hag. I hate her with every fiber of my being.

[–] Brotha_Jaufrey@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

Karen: the final boss

[–] LookBehindYouNowAndThen@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

She argues like she works out— just a lot of desperate flailing.

[–] deeferg@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Same way she governs to be fair, might just be all she knows.

[–] return2ozma@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (3 children)
[–] Generic_Idiot@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

Holy shit she’s actually dumb as fuck

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

The "TWUNT" pillow comment is hilarious!

[–] girsaysdoom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

Wow, what a joke of a human being.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

She should go back to under her bridge.

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I got excited because I thought that was a noose behind her.

Damn. One day.
