Where do you get your news? (US)

Im a disabled vet, and wish I could get prescribed cannabis. However, the federal government has their heads firmly up their asses.

Id like to know where you all go to get your news, other than a general web search. Is anyone signed up for newsletters, have friends in an agency, or whatever. Im tired of reading a bunch of articles about the same subject with so many different views of whats being said or done. CNN, FOX, MSNBC, Breightbart, and so on are all so conflicting with each other that you do not have an opportunity to get the truth about hardly anything.

Please leave the politics out of it, I just want to know what legislation is being proposed. I would like to know what I can do to help with the legalization of it. For instance, I am on an email list for the American Kratom Association. They send me petitions to sign and phone numbers to call to help keep Kratom from becoming a schedule 1 substance.

Read it all and it falls on you to discern what is right, or in some people's cases, what you want to be right.

You say to keep politics out of it, but that's what it is about. There's truth and then there are lies. I get my news from truth based on facts, I don't think it comes prepackaged.

I understand that the crooked politicians, on all sides of the spectrum, are the ones we are at the mercy of on this subject. I just don't want to have to sort through the hate this person or, because of that person BS in this particular thread.

I don't hate anyone without reason. But I've seen enough of Trump to think he is one of the worst humans in history. I'm not being dramatic, he's one of the fucking worst douchebags I've ever seen. I mean, he is the worst. I never seen Hitler. You're not an evil clown spirit roaming the internet feeding on Trump hate are you? Cuz I got a big old bag of it.

Not feeding on Trump hate at all. Exactly why I would like to keep political opinions out of this particular question. Just wanting to know where people go for info. I really really really want NC to legalize recreational, and the VA (veterans affairs) to legalize medical.

Oh, I also am lost on how ICP plays into this. Although, I used to be a juggalo before the last card was released.

Never mind. It's probably because of my profile picture. Haha. It was a filter from FB messenger. I just wanted to put me up there without showing.... me.

I'm not poor, or considered white, dumb is relative but I have a B.S In Engineering.
I read the drudgereport for pure news and sometimes listen to some conservative/"alt-right" pundits that mostly support decriminalizing it federally.
People in jail for low key weed crimes only feeds big government and crony capitalism which we don't support.
We can have classical liberal or libertarian views but of course we get cornered into identity politics by today's leftists that quickly try to end any debate with name calling and race/gender baiting NPC responses like "trump orange, republicans bad."
I don't get how white supremacy has anything to do with weed or suppressing a white woman like in the leftist cartoon you posted. It doesn't make any sense.
 
I use google to know more about this process and "marihuana news" are my keywords. My favorite sites are marijuana com and hightimes com/news .
What`s about you?

That's an ignorant statement.
Have you done any research on who your senators and representatives are and where they stand on legalization? It is mighty ignorant of you not to know how your Republican reps voted in the topic in the past. Smh dont be that guy.
