The shutdown is having unintended consequences in big and small ways. For Indigenous communities, it's been particularly crippling. Many rely heavily on federal government payouts owed to tribes based on treaties. The funds go towards basic services, from plowing roads to health care to stocking food pantries. Representative Sharice Davids of Kansas knows firsthand how a shutdown can impact Native Americans. Her state is home to a number of different American Indian tribes. She's also a member of the Ho-Chunk Nation...

I think there is some value in knowing who the mouth pieces are versus who are just the parrots.
Acting like I have a clue if anyone on TV is acting without agency has long passed me. I still have trouble reconciling Trump/Hannity.
The only analysis I consider worthwhile in determining the truth behind anything is: cui bono?
Everyone I can think of that purport themselves as "independent reporters" have long lost my trust in them to report any and all news in a manner that is not meant to drive an agenda.
This mis-reporting about the 7yo shot in Texas by Mr Black is really jaw dropping.
Bob Woodward is still pretty good.
Thy praise or dispraise is to me alike:

This news is real, but sounds fake:

Government shutdown disaster, because the Ho-Chunks can’t stock their food pantries.
Indeed.
This has to be fake news DB. Every television show or movie I've seen with Injuns and they all can track, hunt and live off the land...……………. 'member, they had to save the starving pilgrims.
Seems like every time I witness fanatical SJWing on social media it’s coming from a ho-chunk, so to speak. They cling to social Marxism like white men to guns and religion.
At issue: How should a uniquely deceptive president be treated by TV networks that value the truth?
Seth Meyers, the host of "Late Night" on NBC, took a position about this on his show Monday night.
"Just because Trump wants to address the nation doesn't mean networks should air it. Otherwise, they're just passing on his lies unfiltered," Meyers said.
Judgement has already been made by our enlightened media class. Whatever he says is a lie.
They'll air it because it will get them better ratings than if they don't. Either way, the ratings are sinking due to just what was explained. You see it in all television ratings. More ways to watch, other things to watch, and the old guard slowly sinks.
