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.

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.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.

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.

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.

Giving them the excuse they crave to put NYC into a full on police state
I’m not sure there are enough people on their side to hold a city like New York.
I would fight for New York and I live in California. The fascists are failing.
Yeah, I'm not saying it will go well. But that doesn't mean they wouldn't try. Trump is most notably a stubborn and stupid person
arnt stupid people usually stubborn in general. just like how stubborn animal/pets usually are kind of lacking brain cells.
His handlers aren't quite as stupid.
Fascists don't need an excuse to do what they want to do. They're toddlers. It's like saying a cat needs an excuse to push a fragile memento off a shelf.
Wrong. They will do whatever they want, sure. But they will use any justification no matter how flimsy. This is less flimsy. And you're reacting as if I'm saying what new Yorkers should do but I'm not. I'm simply accurately predicting what we all know trump would do in response.
isnt it sort of a police city, since NYPD is the largest police force in the us.
This is the kind of thing that would lose them support of a lot of the police. It would still be a right wing military based in the city, but right wing ≠ maga
That is not a fight they would win. Admittedly, its a fight everyone would lose. But it would be the end of this coup, and possibly the end of the "United" states.
I don't think they have a chance of holding just NYC but I think every major US city would suddenly be in open revolt if they did this.
