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.


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. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


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.


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.

He's a chameleon, but his favourite colour is green.

Money and power. He did it for money and power. He’s a bad person. That’s always the answer.

Yeah that's basically the foundation of conservatives. Greed and selfishness.

I thought Republicans didn't really like brown people, but then I see Vance's nose...

Ok, that was a close one.

Yes, it’s not like Ohio is facing any issues at all because of climate change, https://theoec.org/thebilliscomingduereport/

Drinking water treatment and grid maintenance? Fiscally irresponsible expenditures.

Republicans are clowns

This was my first guess as well. Literally $.

Who calls it doubting, not accepting the clear evidence and facts isn't a doubt, it's a denial of reality.

It just occurred to me that Ted Cruz must be devastated. Vance is a clone of Cruz. The biggest difference is the year they graduated from the Ivy League and started selling monorails to the rubes.

Trump hasn't directly called Vances wife ugly

My conspiracy theory is that hes sitting on a mountain of Hillbilly Elegy DVDs and this is his plan to finally sell them all.

But yeah, he believes in whatever is making him money at any given point because hes simply 10 pounds of slime in a 5 pound sack.
