Are there any good conservative alternatives to Drudge Report besides Free Republic?

I googled and found Bad Blue. Are there others you all recommend?

thanks,

Right?! Jeez, cruzettes have ALL the sites, shall we bother to list them? Ugh

Btw, from what I’ve seen with Drudge is more about hillary and bernie than anyone else.

But I guess the little snowflake cruzettes are simply too fragile to face opposing opinions. Pity that

I believe that is correct. From my understanding, TBL was started because some did not like the group think (resulting in “zotting” and “banning”) which occurred from time to time - most notably during primary/election years. Some on TBL left FR voluntarily, but others were banned.

I don’t know about the double agent part.

I was not aware they were still around. Seemed pretty dead last time I looked yeRs ago.

They’re still there. Once in a while, I check it out.

Drudge is All Trump all the time.

Nothing “conservative” about that.

"Is there any interest in meeting up again in DC?"

Frankly, I believe the days of the mass freeper "marches" and rallys are over for the most part. It's a changed world from when we traveled to DC and elsewhere for freeper events.

I could write an essay on why, but it would be too long and time-consuming. Briefly, I think the reasons are:

1).....Too expensive for out-of-state travel, lodging and food in this economy.
2).....Time is too precious now for many folks, for various reasons.
3).....An element of danger in rallys and street corner demonstrations was not a factor a decade ago as it is now.
4).....Folks prefer to do their protests and politicking from the comfort of their comfy "dens", surrounded by their TV and computer screens, phones, music, snacks, beer, comfy chairs and a bed nearby to flop in when tired. It's hard today to pry people from their communication lairs where they are likely to prefer spending their limited free time.
5).....A goodly number of the thousands of freepers who traveled all over for freeps in the olden days are now 15 or more years older...and travelling distances and walking and standing at demonstrations are no longer an option for many.

Although the nation-wide FR chapter structure apparently collapsed several years ago, we still have three chapters in Florida with active, dynamic members. We have local street corner events occasionally, and also some area get-togethers. We even have had great entertainment provided by some of our talented Florida freeper musicians and vocalists at our doings!

Any freeper can organize an event. I personally have organized a "FReep the Debate" big-screen TV viewing with eats at my clubhouse...also a freeper brunch and dinners at area restaurants...plus other fun gatherings. Fellow freepers come from many, many miles away, taking a close-by motel for the night, just to enjoy the politics and great fun at our gatherings.

I hope to have a biggy at my clubhouse on Election Night in November to watch the returns coming in.

In the absence of freeps to DC or other cities, going local with an area freep is a great substitute....and the FR state forum boards are the tools for all freepers across the fruited plain to organize these activities.

Hi Friend, I also am one who finds it necessary to stay here in the Sunshine State. My traveling is limited to just here in Florida now. I sure do, however, plan to get together with Florida Freepers whenever I can! :)
