What are your favorite sources of independent journalism?

Mine are ProPublica, Popular.info and The Bulwark. I also like a few Substack journalists and analysts like Heather Cox Richardson, Joyce Vance, Robert Hubbell and Talking Points Memo.

I’ve officially left Threads.
When I left Twitter, I lost some financial support and professional opportunities. Every time I move platforms I lose about 2/3 or more of my followers.

This should scare the shit out of everyone. Freedom dies in darkness and this administration is censoring the very news organizations that ask him real questions!

If we are to keep a free press, and with it, our democracy, we must actively support the right of journalists to do their work.
