Sue, The headline on this article caught my attention because it’s my plan..RESIST. But the list you made of all the resources is invaluable! I knew many of these but this is so helpful because we must form this communication NOW. Before President Musk & the felon take office. (I’m repeating what Adam Kinzinger said about presdent Musk! 🤣) This will drive the felon nuts.
I will be circulating this widely. Thank you thank you!
I would add: Dire Talks, Tin Foil Times and Stephen Spoonamore all on Substack. (I heard about Spoonamore on the Thom Hartmann show, one of the handful talking about the election being rigged with an algorithmic manipulation).
We know Trump cheated in the last two elections. He cheats on his taxes, he cheats to get loans, he cheats at golf, he cheated on all 3 wives, this is a man you want to check.
Remember, Musk met with Putin several times; Putin, the master of election rigging.
Thank you so much for the compilation of invaluable info. I look forward to seeing more of your writing. In the meantime I will share this in my groups of other resistors.
Great compilation — these links should be on a site easily accessible, please. Others to consider for inclusion:
Zeteo - Mehdi Hassan’s media/news company (which brought me to Substack!)
Brian Tyler Cohen - YouTube news
David Pakman Show - YouTube news
The Professional Left - news and media podcast with longtime blogger Driftglass (great blog!) and blogger Blue Gal Fran (also with Crooks and Liars), husband and wife team
The Damage Report - John Iadarola (connected to TYT but stands alone on YouTube)
Occupy Democracy - YouTube news
Democracy Docket - lawyer Marc Elias (mentioned by J Sena above) website and also on YouTube
Justice Matters with lawyer Glenn Kirschner on YouTube
Tell Me Everything with John Fugelsang on SiriusXM
BlueRootsRadio for sustaining music and progressive commentary
Laura Flanders and Friends - news and public affairs on YouTube (former Air America Radio host)
Majority Report with Sam Seder (former Air America host)
Nicole Sandler Show - formerly with Air America
(And I DO think Rachel Maddow [formerly Air America Radio] and Lawrence O’Donnell belong here.)
Thanks, Sue! You remind me to return to some sites I haven’t visited in a while.
You should also make a list of specific government officials who are on the side of broadening, democracy, enhancing and building up our institutions, especially rule of law.
Not all politicians are on our side in those matters. The ones who are include:
On the contrary to be a part of the resistance you have to be educated. They are EXCELLENT educators. Have you seen Maddow’s “Public Service Announcements?” You can use it while calling/emailing Senators & Representatives NOT to vote for the cabinet members.
Yes, Maddow is a very important educator - very basic - for people who do not know much about politics or American History which is most of the population. She does Politics 101.
But for those of us who have been aware and politically active for decades she is far too basic and just echoes sentiments which we already share.
She often (not always) breezes over details which she knows her audience won’t care too much about.
Thank you for this amazing list, although I am familiar with some of your recommendations, impressive resources. I am very grateful as we look for some reliable sources in the next few weeks, gasp..years!
SUE, This is a series worth inclusion in your recommended list and daily stack. It's in perfect alignment with and expands on Thom's thinking (and recommends his recent book)..
Part IIIA presents a balanced analysis of the causes and consequences of inequality in the distribution of income and wealth, leading to the conclusion that we are headed for another stock market crash and great depression, given the disturbing parallels between the present and 1928.

Let's give people a bit more time to add their comments and suggestions before setting up a permanent page.

This is golden info. Now I can choose my fellow warriors. ( not so happy at the moment.
Revolt resist repeat
You should also make a list of specific government officials who are on the side of broadening, democracy, enhancing and building up our institutions, especially rule of law.
Not all politicians are on our side in those matters. The ones who are include:
Alexandria, Ocasio, Cortez,
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse,
Jamie Raskin,
Jasmine Crockett,
They'll be in a later article.
Your Podcast list is waay too short. I would add:
-Background Briefing with Ian Masters
-Open Source with Christopher Lydon
-Talking Feds
-Deep State Radio with David Rothkopf
-The New Abnormal
-Fast Politics with Molly Jong-Fast
I would not waste time with O’Donnell or Rachel Maddow. If you’re in the resistance, they are merely echoing your own sentiments back at you.
On the contrary to be a part of the resistance you have to be educated. They are EXCELLENT educators. Have you seen Maddow’s “Public Service Announcements?” You can use it while calling/emailing Senators & Representatives NOT to vote for the cabinet members.

yes, her public service announcements are great - I agree with you there. There are many people who never call their representatives.
So many people do not understand how politics affect their lives personally, which is why I recommended those other podcasts
There is no better timely teacher on the Internet than Heather Cox Richardson.
I’m just saying - For people who have been watching Rachel Maddow for years it is probably time to graduate to the next level.
Yes, Maddow is a very important educator - very basic - for people who do not know much about politics or American History which is most of the population. She does Politics 101.
But for those of us who have been aware and politically active for decades she is far too basic and just echoes sentiments which we already share.
She often (not always) breezes over details which she knows her audience won’t care too much about.

Cheer Leading here this morning ☕ Sue 🤗 Good on You. I like your list of Causes and will reStack ASAP 🙏💯👍💥
About 30 years ago, was approached to spy on a UK company by an American. I told him where to go!
I wonder if he did. lol
Where I told him to go, was very dark and hot 🔥
Sorry for the problem with some Bluesky links - apparently some systems can handle the shorthand version, and others can't. I've fixed them.
