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, 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.
Jesse "The Body" Ventura threatened a potential return to the Minnesota governor's office following the shooting of a mother by an ICE agent in Minneapolis.
I don't want him to run, I was a bit embarrassed he was governor when he was, but I do like what he says here.
Americans in position of visibility and authority need to normalize talking about the Republican party as a domestic enemy to the Constitution, in particular. Not calling it what it is just normalizes it.
Considering everything about him, Jesse regularly has far better takes than you’d expect. And as far as former pro wrestlers go he’s practically woke
Vote red and become dead. Might as well take what you can get at this point because any non red will be better.
Oh, agree completely. He's a slightly unhinged mountain man grandpa who happens to be very very right on this issue. But beggars can't be choosers at this point.
Jesse really wasn't that bad of a governor, all things considered. He pumped a lot of money into education across the state and focused on reducing class sizes. He made public transportation a priority. He also supported gay rights and abortion.
His hostile relationship towards the press really bothered me, but even that was never as bad as Trump's outright war on journalism and at least he was very consistent in speaking to the voters directly when he felt he was being misrepresented by said press rather than just screaming FAKE NEWS like that's a valid rebuttal...
He wasn't perfect by any measure, and there's a lot he can be rightfully criticized for. But compared to any Republican governor (at least in my lifetime)? Far better.
Yep, at the very least he was governing trying to be good, and had/has a conscience. No comparison to the outright evil for evil's sake going on now.
i dont think people have forgiven him, at least the wrestling fan community over him ditching the wrestlers, because they wouldnt unionize with him which he started, he practically asking to "out to wrestlers to be fired" . he felt safe to do it because had sag-afta money as a backup plan. hulk hogan and vince wouldve retaliated against the wrestlers.
