No, I don't subscribe to Daily Kos or any other political group. Overall, we rate the Daily Kos strongly Left Biased based on story selection that almost exclusively favors the left. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to non-vetted content as well as a few failed fact check and misleading claims. mediabiasfactcheck.com/daily-kos/

Yes it is Left Biased and I'd be there vs anywhere else, but I "believe" with caution. Same with Rachel M and her positions, I like and trust Rachel and her gang.

I like Maddow too but rarely watch her anymore. The contributors to these shows seem to know what each candidate should be doing. I wonder, sometimes, why haven't any of them ran for office if they are so sure their way is better than another's?!
I usually read what I want on-line instead of having news shows blasting me in the face with their opinion on current events. They get so worked up trying to get their points across that their BP must elevate sky high. lol

I'm not too bothered by a little "Left-of-center" perspective, as I've found that the "Right of center" fabrications to be just too much to stomach these days.

But in the day I was glued to MSNBC and now glued to NPR.

I don't regularly watch political programming that is strongly left or right because I know the absolute truth lies somewhere in the middle. I base my political opinions on action - past and present - rather than words. When something newsworthy happens, I look at several sources to try to determine the truth and form my own opinions about the good/bad/right/wrong of it.
There are so few unbiased news sources left that I do not rely on a single source.

And, why not, what else can they say?
To Trump's credit, he has made extraordinary efforts to keep his campaign promises....it's just a shame that they all evil, destructive bull$h!t promises that divide the country into more of a "have, and the have nots" reality.
