The Alt Media with Adam Parkhomenko and Sam Youngman

Your digital destination for unfiltered news and analysis.

My crazy friends Adam and Sam swear more than normal people, have a ton of experience in national politics, a whole lot of jokes that are NSFW (my favorite kind), and a fierce love of American democracy. Their newsletter — Today’s Big Stuff — is a must-read for me. Adam and Sam are sick of polite discourse because “the whole f**king world is on fire.” If you’re one of those Democrats who thinks the high road is overrated, then Today’s Big Stuff is for you.
