Photo. Intent is to prove she is a Nazi.

Show the video with the hand-to-chest chest thump followed by the arm snap to 45 degrees.
Show the video to prove she wasn't saying "my nephew was this tall".
Show the video from THIS moment in time.

Photo. Intent is showing that Biden and Putin are best friends and plan to rule the world together.

View attachment 65421

As opposed to the pictures that Putin has of Trump ***** with a teen girl, and the ensuing action Trump has taken to get Ukraine to surrender to Russia?

Show us the evidence of Biden bending over to do Putin's bidding, like Trump has.

So you are saying it is a FACT that photo's show intent?

Stop tapdancing. Tell me the source you will accept.
You don't even have to say court convictions, because those are indisputable.

Obstruction of an official proceeding. That proceeding being the Electoral College vote.

Don't deflect. When are you going to accept that your interpretation of VERBATIM is wrong?

"Goalpost"? When did I ask you to show me a pic of someone showing the height of their nephew?

"The Capitol breach was sui generis: a mass crime with significant distinguishing features, including the historic assault on the seat of legislative branch of federal government, the vast size of the mob, the goal of impeding if not preventing the peaceful transfer of Presidential power, the use of violence by a substantial number of rioters against law enforcement officials, and large number of victims"

It was the same time you and others like you wanted to claim Elon is saluting the Nazi party.

"going to accept that your interpretation" - Thxone
Yet another verbatim quote.
It is word-for word. It does not alter the words. It does not change the position of the words relative to each other. it is not a paraphrase. It is a quote.

Do you just ENJOY being wrong and showing the other people here that you are wrong?

verbatim - in a way that uses exactly the same words as were originally used

https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/citations/quotations:

"Effective teams can be difficult to describe because “high performance along one domain does not translate to high performance along another” (Ervin et al., 2018, p. 470)."
Oh look, they used PART of a sentence as a quote.
How can APA not know the rules Thxone has created for a verbatim quote?

quote- repeat or copy out (a group of words from a text or speech), typically with an indication that one is not the original author or speaker
Oxford Languages


What's that you say? A "GROUP OF WORDS"? Not EVERY SINGLE WORD OF THE ORIGINAL?
Amazing

Good job posting a dead link.

Again you just prove your ego runs you. A quote can be partial. A verbatim quote cannot.

Let me guess, you will claim there is only one way to quote now?

 

[ThxOne Premium Member]

Here, all the information that you again, misinterpret. What you sited is for Short Quotations. Not Verbatim.

Short quotations (fewer than 40 words)​

For quotations of fewer than 40 words, add quotation marks around the words and incorporate the quote into your own text—there is no additional formatting needed. Do not insert an ellipsis at the beginning and/or end of a quotation unless the original source includes an ellipsis.

Effective teams can be difficult to describe because “high performance along one domain does not translate to high performance along another” (Ervin et al., 2018, p. 470).

For a direct quotation, always include a full citation (parenthetical or narrative) in the same sentence as the quotation, including the page number (or other location information, e.g., paragraph number).

• Place a parenthetical citation either immediately after the quotation or at the end of the sentence.
• For a narrative citation, include the author and year in the sentence and then place the page number or other location information in parentheses after the quotation.
• If the quotation precedes the narrative citation, put the page number or location information after the year and a comma.
• If the citation appears at the end of a sentence, put the end punctuation after the closing parenthesis for the citation.
• If the quotation includes citations, see Section 8.32 of the Publication Manual.
• If the quotation includes material already in quotation marks, see Section 8.33 of the Publication Manual.
• Place periods and commas within closing single or double quotation marks. Place other punctuation marks inside quotation marks only when they are part of the quoted material.

Here is a verbatim quote from the above information.

A quote must verbatim, or it is not a quote.
If a quote didn't have to be verbatim, I could just select a bunch of words you have posted, put them in between quotation marks, and claim it is a quote.

Do you REALLY not understand how quotes work, or are you just feigning ignorance?

Direct quotes in APA Style​

Published on November 12, 2020 by Shona McCombes. Revised on June 16, 2022.
A direct quote is a piece of text copied word-for-word from a source. You may quote a word, phrase, sentence, or entire passage.
Quoting is copying a selection from someone else's work, phrasing it exactly as it was originally written. When quoting place quotation marks (" ") around the selected passage to show where the quote begins and where it ends. Make sure to include an in-text citation.

A phrase, quoted VERBATIM from your post above. No words changed. No relative position of words changed.
