News
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.
It was a “bold, controversial strategy” in the same way that firing on Fort Sumter was a bold, controversial strategy.
Deep cuts, yo!
We know he's guilty, he knows he's guilty, the judge, lawyers, jury, etc. all know he's guilty. We knew it on jan 6 and we know it now. The time for a trial was years ago. And now that it's here it's dragging ass. How many examples of blatant disregard for the law is it going to take for this flap jowled pig fucker to see a prison cell? Jeeeesus christ
Yeah!
This is not a trial of trump.
This is a trial of the American justice system.
Smoking gun, right there.
How many smoking guns we’ve had so far? I have lost count
They're not "smoking guns". They're evidence supporting a charge.
He wasn't "caught red handed" he was caught with a preponderance of evidence implicating him.
You must be fun at parties. No duh it's evidence. It's cut and dry evidence of conspiracy, so compelling that it's almost like he metaphorically killed someone and is standing over their dead body with a smoking gun. You didn't see the gunshot, but you can be 99% sure of who the shooter was.
It’s cut and dry evidence of conspiracy
Yeah - As a rule I don't take legal advice from randos on Lemmy. So far it's been a good rule.
We haven't had one like that. That's a document linked to Trump that shows Trump knew he lost.
Talk about throwing shit at a wall to see what sticks.
Even acknowledging that the Supreme Court would reject it. A Supreme Court they stacked in their favor. What the absolute fuck lol
Remember that Venezuela coup they sponsored? That was like 3 actual ex-Navy guys and about 20 fishermen whose boats they hired? Lasted all of 10 minutes? That’s the brain trust behind the big lie. Master strategists they ain’t. I mean, thank goodness, since they’re utterly devoid of scruples, ethics, honor, or simple human decency.
"Uhh, I have a law degree. I can make big crime look legit."
"Mr. President, this could be insane and dangerous!"
"Nah. Hold my diet coke."
That archive link is just an endless I am not a robot bullshit
You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?
You want me to tell you about my mom? My mother?
Blamo!
So it wasn't just me? 'Check all the boxes with a bike'. Fail. Maybe there was a bike behind a house or something...
Edit: Worked fine on my phone.
Here's a non-paywall link instead.

Do you have cookies turned off or something? I accidentally opened a link in Firefox the other day and got hit with that until I realized I have Firefox set to never keep any history, cookies, etc.
I am using Firefox on mobile but it has the default settings, I even tried it in private mode which is more settings enabled or relaxed.
Oh well
Weird, I use Firefox on Android and it worked for me.
