Same here. As soon as I heard about the shooting, I came to the PT to find out what was happening. I come here first for all breaking news.


I was at Walmart on the phone with a family member.

She said something about a text from a friend saying Trump was shot.

I told her to hold on, hopped on the PT, and confirmed it to her.


Quickest place for most news.

TD has a way of filtering out the bullshite. You can usually get to the truth on here.

Not only is the news aggregated here very quickly it is vetted.

All news aggregating sites lack vetting.

Right. MSM is notorious for burying the lede in their stories to promote a narrative. This site unburies it pretty quickly.

I was talking politics with a friend in TN, and realized he was well-informed/up to date on the same headlines/issues/talking points I was. Curiously, I asked him where he goes for his news.

He said he watches Newsmax in the morning, then listens to podcasts of Dan Bongino, Mark Levin and Kyle Seraphin. Then goes on X for Tucker.

I told him that seems so time consuming as in comparison to me surfing message boards like TD/PT or FreeRepublic for the latest hot topics/media links & content.

He compared it to him watching all 4 quarters of a game while I read the ticker. Or him sitting thru a professors lecture while I just read the textbook.

I concur. My son also uses PT even though he never comes to LSU.

Same here. My wife realized that it was a real source on Saturday as I kept reporting things an hour before MSM.

It took her a while.

Right.... I was on another Football website that was totally leftist and heavily moderated. For some reason any news that didn't fit the leftist agenda never made their message boards. In fact half of important news it seems was intentionally not posted on the site.

But you can bet that on TD< if it's news, its posted.

I wake up around 4 a.m. I check Yahoo News headlines to see what the left is doing and then I check this board's first page to see the latest actual news.

however, I was watching something on streaming and not on TD when this happened. my son actually called me from his vacation to ask me if Trump had just been shot (he was watching the rally live).

first place I went was TD and, yep, there it was
