A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.
If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.
Rules
- Follow the aussie.zone rules
- We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
- Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
- Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

Let’s hope that Joe delivers that pardon and Hunter accepts it before Trump takes office. Then again, with the state of our government, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Supreme Court decided to throw away precedent.

The Supreme Court isn't going to do that. Art. 2 Sec. 2 and the 5A's double jeopardy clauses are quite clear on the matter.
They'd sooner overrule Wickard v. Filburn than do that.
They wont do it because it would set precident for if the dems ever do get back into power to do it right back to them.
