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.

Oh FFS, lock him up already!
Garland said "we will follow up on everyone regardless of who they are". We know now for a fact he was lying.
Every judge says they're going to treat him like any other defendant. We are in the process of learning that they are lying.
I'm not saying Chutkan is going to obviously spike the case like Cannon or Judge Rittenhouse, I think she's going to try to run a decent trial if it gets to that point.
But pre-trial punishment? Not a snowflake's chance in hell. These judges all still want to be invited to cocktail parties and given country club memberships. The elite is loyal to the elite.
Part of the problem is that he wants badly for them to find him in contempt - to his followers it will be absolute proof that it's a witch hunt. I can already read the headlines about how they locked him up to silence him and BS like that.
I'm not necessarily saying that means they still shouldnt do it, but there are more reasons than corruption to tread softly here
why would the opinion of his followers even matter tho? this is a court case, not an election. even if it were an election, they'd vote for him regardless.
And stop reporting every little inanne thing he says and does.
Seriously, enough with the "warnings". The country's starting to look like China.
