Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
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.

MODERATORS
They forgot to hang up after ordering the pizzas. Domino’s guy heard the whole thing.
The funny part is the leak could only have come from inside his administration and party because he withheld briefings from his political opponents
It could still be from a Dem added to a Signal chat
Oh is that what that random group chat was last week?
For some reason, he seems extra butthurt about getting caught lying this time.
It's because fascists always have to be right and be the strongest. So strong that any resistance means destruction and the only path of survival is to fall in line.
He insisted the attacks destroyed key enriched uranium stockpiles, despite Iranian assertions that the material had been relocated before the strikes.
Trump dismissed the leaked intelligence assessment in question – which suggested the strikes only temporarily disrupted Iran’s nuclear development – as incomplete and biased.
Not only is he not as strong as he says, he looks downright weak. It's personally dangerous to his image and is a test of power to those within the GOP. He needs complete loyalty so others will follow his orders without question. But the question is now "is it worth it?"
And there were real believers within the GOP who wanted to avoid WW3 or a nuclear engagement only to see AIPAC have more pull than actual Americans in the deployment of American muscle. Trump needs to keep those stragglers in line or risk having a shattered party that can't do anything but in-fight over the next 3 years.
He's fighting this so hard because this is a fight for his future.
I really really hope he loses this fight.
Well he is losing imo but to who. It’s not democracy.
that's because the narrative was important to their long-term goals and has not only ruined the months of setup, but also wasted the efforts.
he's a really lazy man and hates working.
It was Hegseth thru a Signal group again
It was Pete Hegseth in a Signal group Biatch
in his defense he was, and continues to be, a weak-willed simpering bitch
A drunk weak-willed simpering bitch
That's how you know the intelligence is accurate.
Reporters should all just say it was Don Jr.
it was the coke talking
They should say it was Pete Opsec
That's called a subpeona, Mr. Trump.
Truth hurts MF 🤬
Maybe it was Iran?
