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.

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.
Are you a citizen? Were you born here? no Did you serve this country? no Are you white? maybe
Not all Tennessee driver licenses are REAL IDs, which is what Mr. O'Connor initially applied for. A REAL ID is a federally compliant license, and a combination of federal and state laws govern acceptable proof of citizenship to obtain a REAL ID. The documents that Mr. O’Connor has provided to date do not satisfy the proof required to issue him a REAL ID.
Yeah, that's exactly what I said when the story first came out. The REAL ID requires extra proof. If he had applied for a regular license, they would have issued it no problem. If he doesn't have the necessary documents to prove citizenship (certificate of birth abroad or whatever) then apply for that too.
Yeah, he’s just in an unfortunate situation where he never needed to get any of the evidence States now require as proof of citizenship. And he likely never had to back then when he was younger because the rules weren’t as strict as they are now.
Birth certificate or certified copy of birth certificate issued by a U.S. State or by the U.S. Department of State (for persons born abroad to U.S. citizen parents who registered the child’s birth and U.S. citizenship with the U.S. Embassy or consulate)
U.S. passport, issued by the U.S. Department of State Certificate of citizenship issued to a person born outside the United States who derived or acquired U.S. citizenship through a U.S. citizen parent
I wonder if has any of the secondary evidence that is accepted:
Republicans need government bureaucracy to be inept to justify dismantling it so they intentionally sabotage it themselves
This should be in boring dystopia.
