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, 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.
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.

Man gets blackout drunk and drives to Waffle House.
I mean, plenty of us sleepwalk, someone who isn't me does, talks, walks, moves around, in a dream but awake and walking. Swim never claimed teleportation because swim (someone who isn't me) isn't an asshole.
Hey, hey, we can’t assume it was alcohol.
There's nothing quite like a ten minute drive in a k-hole
Carbon monoxide then.
Its how everyone see this happening.
Everyone has a bad alchohol (or something) expirence, its obvious to everyone that something like that happened and his brain (while on drugs) skipped a track. The emberassing part is that he insists on the sci-fi explanation, rather than the much more mundane normal waffle house expirence.
Under any other administration we would be like "The head of FEMA used to be a party animal, funny", but now its just more on the pile of unqualified BS, the issue is that this guy runs the dept that helps people on the worst days of their lives.
For the record, plenty of people sleep walk, I like to call it sleep waking but no one else does. While alcohol and drugs.exacerbates it, it happens without it's help. Only an asshole would claim teleportation in any case.
I guess we all "teleport" to Waffle House from time to time.
What's the fuel for your teleportation device, plutonium? Nah, most of the time it's schnapps.
It's better than getting blackout drunk and driving your car into a pond, killing your passenger, like that other Kennedy....
Sure but if he can't remember getting there he might have killed someone along the way or is conveniently forgetting thinking this is an ironclad alibi.
Don't drive intoxicated folks. It can ruin the lives. Just ask Tiger Woods.
Nobody should drive intoxicated, but rich people have even less of an excuse. Tiger Woods can afford a cab.
Preach.
