Add to this resource list.

Looking for good resources, statistics, news feeds, and livestreams


I'm looking for good resources this election season. I found this list from a month ago. Can anyone add anything?

Corona Virus Tracker -
https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6

Joe Biden's Here's The Deal podcast - https://joebiden.com/heres-the-deal/

Take Action for Joe - https://joebiden.com/take-action/

Electoral-vite.com - https://electoral-vote.com/ This site offers analysis,news, and statistics.

FiveThirtyEight - https://fivethirtyeight.com/ This is Nate Silver’s data heavy statistics and analysis site.

Media Matters - https://www.mediamatters.org/ This site turns its eye on the media and is a great source for calling out the often uncritical and occasionally outright lying news coverage.

Crooks and Liars - https://crooksandliars.com/ This is a snarkier, more video-heavy site analyzing coverage similar to Media Matters above.

Open Secrets - https://www.opensecrets.org/ A source for statistics and details on political donations. I find it is a great way to sniff out Republican donors and “fake” liberals who will crop up to claim support for Trump.

Wonkette - https://www.wonkette.com/ A joyfully snark-laden source for left-leaning political news.

Alternet.org - https://www.alternet.org/ A good source for progressive political opinion and news.

Crooked Media - https://crooked.com/ A source for liberal news and analysis from former Obama staffers. Their podcasts, especially Pod Save America and Pod Save the World are excellent.

Al Franken Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-al-franken-podcast/id1462195742 It’s just a joy to hear his voice again.

MSNBC Livestream - https://livenewschat.eu/politics/

Live Streams for MSNBC, FOXNEWS, CNN, and CNBC. - https://www.livenewsnow.com/american/msnbc.html

Democracy Now - https://www.democracynow.org/ A wonderful source for news the media ignores and far-left political opinion.

Right Wing Watch
Right Wing Watch is a project of People For the American Way (PFAW) dedicated to monitoring and exposing the activities and rhetoric of right-wing activists and organizations in order to expose their extreme agenda. Our researchers monitor dozens of broadcasts, emails and websites, and use their expertise on right-wing movements to analyze and distill that information for media, allies and the general public. By shedding light on the activities of the right-wing movement, we help expose the risks its extreme and intolerant agenda presents to our country. We do not endorse the views of groups that we report on.
