  • Independent journalism is the only way to save our democracy

    Don Lemon has been a respected journalist for years, himself and others like Scott McFarlane, experienced DC professionals like Liz Oyer (former pardon attorney for the WH), Malcolm Nance (Blackman Spy, former CIA ), and young investigators like the Drey Dossier are the IRL news sources in combination w/ groundnews.com website.

    Corporate news is propaganda. & Local news is tainted by the Sinclair.

    I Reccomended following Don Lemon and these others on Substack as well.
