Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

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.

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.
Isn't this illegal?
According to Wikipedia, only 2 people have ever been charged under the act in over 200 years and neither was convicted, so it's not really a law at that point
Yes
SCOTUS:
Obviously our liberal "friends" have never read the constitution. It clearly states that anything Trump or his family does is constitutional.
If the law is not enforced it's no different than there being no law, choosing not to enforce the law or delay enforcement because the perpetrator is wealthy or politically connected happens in oligarchy not democracy.
Didn't stop Trump when he talked with Netanyahu during his visit... Why would the rest of his family think they're any different?
And the Saudis will play him like a fiddle.
Maybe they'll play him but saudis are trying to team up with the zionists that he represents.
One of the gulf countries, UAE?, said that he’s easily exploited.
So does the crown prefer axes or cordless reciprocating saws for body disposal?
Fucking duh. Why do you think they paid like a billion dollars for his shitty property?
Creep recognize creep.
