Update:
Trump ‘regime’ backtracks. Removes loyalty pledge wording. https://archive.ph/ckg54
Nothing says being on the right side of history like forced thought does.
Good thing we avoided Kamala
make sure you say it like kuh-MAH-la to make her sound foreign and scary smh
Because nothing says American freedom like unconditional loyalty to a Jewish supremacist settler colony.
States pay taxes to create federal funds.
I'm absolutely fine if blue states stop paying and just take care of their own.
There’s no way in hell that ‘ideology’ that supports the executive branch, as a requirement for funding, will survive the courts.
We live in a dictatorship with no rule of law.
We still have SOME law. I want to see what they spin to make it legal to have FEDERAL LE pursue state senators for exercising their procedural and legal rights.
I’m hearing ‘taking bribes’ as what they’re going to go for… but, I want to see that stated under oath and in a court that doesn’t have a stooge presiding.
Most likely not, but it is not costless to have to fight that battle for those who need FEMA support. Even if they prevail, they've been punished for not submitting to Trump's ideological demands.
Israel has cucked us so hard
Being a professional blackmailer country makes that happen.
This is the policy of "America first"
America first! ...after Israel.
Yea they just neglected to finish the phrase. It's like "when in Rome" or "Make America Great Again... by raping children". You know the quiet part out loud thing.
I barely know what to call this. We're beyond authoritarianism at this point, this is insane.
Genocide or die.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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 10/19
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.
