Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Been sued before in big, public cases; public climate change denier that uses the company as a platform to openly lobby against climate change legislation. Fucking christ.

I'm getting irrationally annoyed by titles that say "Trump appoints" for cabinet level positions. This is the polysci lib in me, but he's not even president yet. He hasn't even nominated them to the Senate. Any of this could change in the next couple months.

Also that guy looks like a ghoul Paddy Considine. Paddy doesn't deserve that comparison but it's unfortunately true.

Of his picks, this one will likely get through.

His old DoE head was Rick Perry.

I mean, true; I just took the auto-generated title and slapped it in there. Fair point to what you're saying though; I wouldn't be surprised if most of these people get nominated and just end up being layers of protection when Trump or his other donors/lobbyists want to push through some ghoulish shit.

Did change the title btw.

That wasn't a jab at you, but that's cool 666.
