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.

This guy wanted another term this time last year.
[Edit] Oh, and some of you all thought it was a good idea. Lol.
You can't really predict stage 4 cancer in your life plans, but it was clear to anyone paying attention that he was not fit for the office anymore.
Still would have voted his ticket over a fascist megalomaniac.
This also may explain some of the cognitive stuff being so acute in the last year.
Voters needed more than that because it's so hard to believe that the death of the American was a vote away. They couldn't comprehend the existential horrors of fascism when the suffering of liberalism was already untenable. Things were way worse than most wanted to admit, and only now that things are unprecedented will they feel a harsher plunge into the nightmare future we were already destined for.
The world is gonna be unstable compared to the past 80 years for quite a while, and empires will once again trump capitalism as the greatest evil the world has to offer. We might see nuclear war, mass famine, disasters with no organized relief. We will see climate catastrophe, horrendous pollution, regular violence, and an end of safety for everyone on earth. Not even the ultra rich will be safe, as their wealth is meaningless without a state. Protecting it yourself with violence is a far worse deal for your own safety, as now you're competing with other feudal lords as well. No real winning anymore.
Bro.
A chihuahua on crystal meth would do a better job than Trump.
A coma patient who doesn't wake up would do a better job than Trump.
I would say that The Devil would do a better job than Trump, but that's kind of like trying to divide by zero.
I'm satanic and so I've got it on good authority that he'd do a damn fine job. Plus free cover to his club, full nudity is permitted, full public sex is encouraged. Main talking points are all that other stuff like saving humanity, body autonomy, protection for marginalized people... and the club access and sex...
Does Trump's plan include any of this? I rest my case. :P
Okay I'm interest in the club sex and nudity stuff. But don't know its all the other stuff that I worry about.
the devil (the first archangel)is actually smart, compared to trump.
A sixth grader is smart compared to Trump.
Did he, or did his team take advantage of a doddering, senile old man because they wanted to keep their cushy jobs?
With the release of his interviews over having classified materials it's clear to me that he wasn't making his own decisions and if he thought he was still competent and capable that's because the people around him were lying to him and telling he was. He was clearly at a point where he could no longer accurately assess those kind of things about himself, and was thus relying on outside input. When that outside input is enabling the idea that he is competent, that's not the fault of a man on the edge of senility.
Leave ~~Brittany~~ Biden alone, especially now that he is likely to die from a horrific disease. Blame this on the correct parties, those around him enabling the idea that he needed to run again, which were his aides who didn't want to lose their cushy positions.
I'd still take a dying Biden over this shit show, are you kidding me?
No he just wanted to beat 45, he wanted his VP to be president, cause she was a carbon copy establishment Dem that would protect the status quo, why do you think she didnt change any major platform positions when she took over? Cause it was already her campaign.
