Buy a subscription to @wapo, @nytimes, or any other of the national papers. Sign up for @BulwarkOnline, and other online sources. Listen to the podcasts from the @BulwarkOnline (my favorite), or the New Abnormal with @MollyJongFast or @TheRickWilson. /4

Keep your eyes and ears open by keeping these organizations viable.
