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 right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

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.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.


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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.

This is a live feed from the courthouse. As such the title may change from the original.

Justice Juan Merchan began by disposing of Donald Trump’s latest motion to recuse him from the case, saying the former president’s claims of bias or impartiality relied on “innuendo and unsupported speculation.”

“To say these claims are attenuated is an understatement,” Merchan said.

Trump had argued that Merchan’s comments to the press about the justice system generally, his opinion that politicians using Twitter is “unprofessional,” a Tweet critical of Trump that was falsely attributed to his daughter, and his daughter’s work for a consulting firm that has Democratic clients rendered the judge incapable of being fair.

This was Trump’s second failed bid to recuse Merchan.

But surely "Sleepy Joe" wasn't projection, right? lol

Maggie Haberman writes: 'Trump appears to be sleeping. His head keeps dropping down and his mouth goes slack.'

Maggie Haberman writes: 'Trump has apparently jolted back awake, noticing the notes his lawyer passed him several minutes ago.'

Reminder that this is a criminal trial and not a civil one like the last few that have been in the news.

On Memmy, your comment is several pages long. I spent a good thirty seconds just spam scrolling down and never even got past the first image.

Looks fine on the four other UIs I checked (Tesseract, Photon, Alexandrite, LemmyUI). Submit a bug to Memmy devs 🤷‍♂️

Looks fine on Voyager too.

I’ve had problems similar to this with mobile/ipad though. I can’t tell if it's random or a specific combo between devices and apps.
