      They certainly fucking deserve a reckoning. Collaborators always do.

        Never forget, never forgive.

          Lawmakers have learned lessons from when they controlled the House in the first Trump administration and ran out the clock following “polite” protocol

          But I hope I’m wrong.

              They supposedly have been learning that lesson since the Carter administration.

                  Personally, I’d like to see all the law firms that bent to knee to dumbfuck go down in flames.

                          I would have thought that, as successful, powerful lawyers, more of those firms would be smart enough to realize that the executive orders targeting them would be immediately ruled unconstitutional in court.

                          Besides, giving a bully what he wants doesn’t make him your friend. He’ll take it and proceed to fuck your shit up regardless. Then he’ll come back for more.

                        They should be scared, because people are pretty damned angry and they helped cause this mess. They are still doing it too.

                        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. Keep on-topic


                        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, 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.
