When some of my right leaning acquaintances tell me something big happened, I log on DU.
If I don't see it here first, it never happened. This is the fastest fact check site for me.

Thank you everyone!

Thank you. It’s good to have a group where we can share thoughts and together lament the state of our country while also celebrating the good things that happen.

So many great ideas and observations. Always something new to learn.

I especially like the editorial cartoons and current topic cartoons.

If a post is updated by someone with more current information, the poster almost always shows gratitude. Refreshing.

Especially when it comes to legal matters. It's easy to complain about "why hasn't something happened yet" & I've learned that there are usually good reasons why something hasn't happened yet, although those reasons usually aren't readily apparent to outside observers without a law degree or experience with our legal system.

Thank you all!!!
