One of the best websites I know of for US political news. During and after the election, I found myself using Politico, much like I use wsj.com for business news, for a single glance at the most important US political headlines. Mike Allen, formerly of the Washington Post and Time Magazine, leads a talented group of political reporters that, I believe, provide more insight into US politics than most major US newspapers.

Unreliable and False
November 16, 2020

These people fact checked a story I posted on Facebook about Freddy Kreuger being a real person and if you actually READ the whole thing, I say its a joke at the end. But evidently this fact checking site doesnt read an entire article before they tell you all the reasons its false and not fact, because they flagged it and explained that Freddy Kreuger is not real... HUH?! All the misinformation being spread and they fact check THAT? And didnt even bother reading the whole thing or they would have known that it was a joke. Apparently, actually reading the post that they are flagging isnt a stipulation of identifying it as false. What a joke. No credibility.

This is the "wanna be" tip of the spear liberal baised reporting site. Don't trust anything you read hear further than you can throw small fork lift with one arm.

Incredibly Biased
August 15, 2020

What up with the Political Bias? That's one reason for low ratings. Just be honest if you can. If not don't print anything.

Finally, a news site that provides in depth analysis - Their pieces are much more thoughtful than most of what you read on politics and the election.
