The Weekly Watch
Trusted Sources?
I'm at the Florida Folk Festival this weekend, and so I don't have my usual geopolitical news review. I've written here about the festival, so today I thought I might discuss the sources of news I try to review every week to put together the WW after showing a brief clip about the festival.
So we're leaving Wednesday morning, and so far the Donald hasn't triggered a new round of attacks on Iran. I hope that's the case next week when we get back home. Larry Johnson suggested that Saudi Arabia and Kuwait hold the key. If they refuse the US air access then there can be no attack. If that is the case the question remains will they stick to it. Here's hoping...
If you want to know the details check out some of these channels and interviews. I don't agree with everything the hosts and guest say but I learn from them. The watch focuses on video coverage but also some print media. I try to check out the following channels:
The Duran and Alex Christoforou
Judging Freedom with Judge Napolitano
Larry Johnson's Counter currents and and his website Sonar21
George Galloway and his Mother of All Talk shows on Sundays and Wednesdays
Most of these host also have substack accounts so you can follow them in print. They interview many of the same guests, most of whom also write on substack.
Print sources I try to check out include:
https://www.moonofalabama.org/
https://www.theautomaticearth.com/ (a bit too pro-Trump for my tastes, but has interesting items none the less.)
https://caityjohnstone.medium.com/ has good op ed content
What are your favorite sources which I didn't mention?

Hey, sounds like a kicken' fest
.
10 stages and 300 performers is a lot to take in.
Imagine the vibe is mellow, being folk and all.
I also check out most of your listed sources and listen to
many of the hosts. Some additional sites to get non-mainstream
coverage include:
The Unz Review
Al Jazeera
Al Mayadeen
Orinoco Tribune
Tass
teleSUR
Asia Times
The Cradle
South China Morning Post
Inside China Business
Pepe Escobar
hmm ...
It would appear I spend a lot of time in this sphere.
Enjoy your music!
Zionism is a social disease
Good morning, LO!
That festival sounds like your perfect bailiwick, friend. No way you couldn't be having fun.
I have mentioned I visit a few rwnj sites. An example is The Gateway Pundit, which was created by Israel. Every bit of info is slanted hard right and pro-Zionist, but it has a limited value because they are typically the first to post an article about some news event. It might be a shooting or jury verdict, or a statement made by a government official from anywhere in the world. They will post it before Google News does.
Zerohedge is another, but it seems they have commenters who are getting off the MAGA Train. Very Zionist, but the commenters not so much.
The Burning Platform is embarrassingly full of racist commenters, but their front page typically features financial analyses, and features articles by Greenwald, Larry Johnson, Judge Nap, etc...The commenters are also leaving The Trump Train and are anti-Zionists.
A Midwestern Doctor, Consortium News, Scheerpost, Chris Hedges, Lee Camp, RT, Mondoweiss, Simplicious,
The Corbett Report, are just a few I typically check out routinely.
Well, my coffee is especially good this morning, so I hope that portends a nice day. I wish for you and all of us to have a fun and relaxing day.
