You have to subscribe in Independent Media if you want to get real analysis on what is going on [View all]

Legacy media is not going to do it.

My favorites are:

Legal AF on Substack or You Tube

Democracy Docket on Substack or You Tube

Adam Klasfield on Substack

Talking Feds on Substack

Bryan Tyler Cohen on Substack

All Rise News on Subtack

Scott McFarlane on Substack

Meidas Touch on Substack and You Tube

There are more. Add yours
