Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

Free press in the USA? LOL, it becomes more and more difficult every time a US oligarch buys a news outlet.
Majority Report, Some More News. I suppose the on the other side of the aisle it would be Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro.
There is still some of the fourth estate left that hasn't been bought by oligarchs, it's just not exactly effective on the leftward side of the overton window.
Isn't the Daily Wire funded by oil barons? I wouldn't put them in the same category as MR which is entirely funded by their viewers and a handful of sponsors.
It's possible, I was just trying to think of right wing pundits that aren't on main stream media. I only know that Ben's wife is not having a good time, by his own admission. I just had to look up The Daily Wire to figure out which one it was.
Ben shapiro is funded by a fundamentalist Christian billionaire...
Ahh, I see. I don't pay attention to him and was just trying to find someone right wing that wasn't on main stream media platforms
Breaking Points is up and coming. But all these shows still rely on Youtube which can pull the plug at any moment.
Breaking points shills russian propaganda... I wouldnt be surprised that if they also getting russian money like tim pool and lauren southern, similar vibes.
