Heather Cox Richardson / Letters From an American

Even on days I am avoiding politics, I never miss reading Heather Cox Richardson's daily newsletter.  I have found this to be the absolute most reliable starting point for the news.  She includes links and sources.  She does not sensationalize.  It's free, but if anybody wants to pay they can.  I read her letters for a couple of years, then decided I wanted to be a paying reader because I was so thankful for her voice in this madness.

You can follow her on numerous outlets -
