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 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 cancelled student debt for a precious few, unilaterally, several times.
I'm not sure why we're pretending he needs Congress or SCOTUS, except that a lot of people just want to pretend he's magically powerless to fulfill his campaign promises.
He's not pretending, you moron. He already tried forgiving student loan debt through executive orders and the courts blocked him.
He doesn't need the courts.
He's unilaterally done this multiple times.
Please stop lying to yourself.
Learn how the government works before you make a fool of yourself again, you ignorant child.
It's always going to be a little surprising to me watching you all lie to defend your oppressors.
Still, rather an oppressor that at least tries to help than one that doesn't even do that.
What you call 'at least tries to help' seems to be rather performative to me.
The executive doesn't have limitless power, regardless of what various bell-ends on Lemmy seem to believe. And if you think that it should, I'd caution you to do a brief thought experiment and imagine what things will be like when someone with whom you disagree occupies the same office.
If people could eat Democrats' excuses, no one in this country would ever go hungry.
