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.

Bruh the administration has been like.. "We're going to do war crimes".. then proceed to do what they said.. and the lawyers are like "Welll maaybeee its a bit war-crimey..." while the administration is like yeah no dog we doing war crimes.
Well at least they followed through on what they said for once
Dunno why the voters who didnt do anything when they couldve are upset that the shitty govt they got isnt doing anything. Well duh.
Dunno why the voters would be so apathetic when both candidates were pro genocide and pro war. Weird.
That's the part that pisses me off most. If kamala would've won, she'd be better than trump, for sure. But beyond that, this fucker would be rotting in prison right now.
Lmao. You think Kamala "fundamentally the same as Biden" Harris would prosecute trump, after Biden declined to pursue justice?
State crimes at least would have gotten him there.
Sure buddy, he'd be the first and only president to face any justice, lol.
Correct.
Now think on: If Bernie had won 2016, we could have been spared all of this madness.
Biden's AG didn't, and she campaigned exclusively to republicans, no shot she'd appoint an AG who would, for fear of alienating the imaginary moderate republicans.
You're talking federal crimes though. If he didn't become president again, it wouldn't be up to the federal government. He had more than enough crimes against states to put him away for life.
war-crimey
I like that word.
