Read the Bible. It will make what is happening in our world very clear. Seriously.

I use mynorthwest.com, which is an aggregator for this area.

Chances are high that if the headline supports a left-wing talking point it's fake news.

If it's written by Jason Rantz it's actual investigative journalism.

I have reduced my news intake for past 5 or 6 years. It’s great

Uh, that forum sucks. I’m going to need better than that.

To the poster above that said Al-Jazzeria, as f’d as it sounds I found myself on their site today reading about the Suez Canal fiasco. It was interesting to see some of the global stories, like Miramar and shite like that. I’ll definitely be perusing that more often.

You can't, really. All you can do is ask yourself what political objectives you want, and go about achieving that. The media is doing exactly that, but calling it news.

If you can handle the truth, then watch or listen to the Dan Bongino podcast (on Rumble.com) and War Room Pandemic (on Rumble.com or Real America Voice)
Latest episode:

You will hear news backed up with facts.

Read the news instead of watching the opinion pieces that pose as news... read from multiple sources and put the logical pieces together... Also, for some reason the top/bottom of the hour radio news seems to be less slanted...

Half the stuff that I would formally have thought to be conspiracies have proven to have a lot more truth to them


Liten, conspiracies happen everyday in our government and false flags are a known fact in our history. The US leads the world in these categories and has a long history to support it. The term conspiracy theorist was coined by the cia to deter people from talking, dissuade people from searching for the truth, and delegitimize the people speaking up, and it works to perfection.

I usually compare articles on the same topic and see where they line up.

Also basically ignore anything that says unnamed source close to situation says... It's prob 90% chance of being false.
