Yes the insanity trying to split conservatives. DO NOT FALL FOR IT TURN OFF THE TV. The media will do all it can to split us up. We have to stand together no matter what.

What free services do you use? We don’t pay for anything right now, which means we aren’t watching much except some yt stuff.

I dumped my sat dish last year, and got a Roku. I pay for the ad-free Hulu.

Personally, I've been into watching the 80/90s sitcoms. My latest binge watching is Home Improvement, with Tim Allen. Timeless laughs.

I also got Foxnation- but only to watch Tucker Carlson. (also commercial-free)

And I recently installed Rumble via my Roku and was watching Charlie Kirk on election day.

Oh, and I also hit up the local used bookstore and stocked up on reading material, and just turned the boob tube off completely. My life is so much calmer. :)

For Fox stuff, go to Rumble via Roku and subscribe to Foxmuldernews. You can get what you want commercial free there, including Gutfeld which is awesome. We also watch Real America Voice and OAN via Roku (have to pay 4.99/mth for OAN, but it's worth it, and since they keep getting banned, I look at it like a donation.

If you are looking for a wholesome show to watch look for Heartland. It’s on Roku. I even got my husband hooked. And there’s more than 20 seasons so it will keep you occupied for a while.

We watched all of it. Was good. Til I found out it was produced by Canadian Gov't. Also gets into climate change and such in later episodes. Made me angry.

Dr Cole is an incredible and humble Christian doctor. He has acted and spoken with courage and at great risk to himself.

I love my Roku. I'll search out a few tv series or movies and then when I have several on one premium channel ("Starz" or whatever) I'll subscribe for a month or two, watch what I want, then cancel. Some have a 7, 14, or 30 day free trials, too. I like tubi, freevee and the free subscriptions to discovery+ (husband likes some shows there), Peacock and Paramount+. I also have a yearly subscription to PureFlix when it went on sale. I have the YouTube, Rumble and odyssee apps installed.

We dumped cable a year ago too.

We pay for OAN. How refreshing that was on election night. We do not watch Fox, Newsmax or any others. They are all garbage. We also have a Roku tv. We also got a fire stick. I hate Amazon but we only pay for what we want. We don’t do any of that Alexa garbage.

If you have Roku, look for the Pluto channel. They do have ads, but live tv, OAN, War Room, Real America's Voice, and a lot of variety, from current to classics.

Pluto is very lgbt friendly... some of their ads are atrocious! we have to mute them frequently, but they have a lot of the shows we like for free!

DogsLife's avatar

I can ignore movies or shows with which I disagree, but the ads! It has happened suddenly. The campaign ads were overwhelming, but they've been replaced with "can I unsee that?" pharma ads. (The funny thing is, on these 'drugs for everything' commercials, they tell about every single possible complication -including death - yet there is never a peep about complications when they are dancing and singing for the almighty injections. It's a miracle concoction!)

I think it's nearly impossible to find any broadcast media that hasn't bought into the ESG, CRT, LBGT agendas. The only option is to throw the TV out the window, along with the cell phone. Coming soon!

Yes, I have a smart tv and see nothing free. We have had Hulu for a year and a half and the price has gone up twice. $75 a month for 75 channels and live sports is too much for me. Hubby won’t give up his Fox News, I have no idea why.

As Jeff suggests, "they" are trying to split conservatives between DeSantis and Trump, with the GOPe/RINO/UniParty wing of the GOP firmly behind DeSantis (check out who is funding his war chest) and the America First/MAGA populist wing behind Trump.

Yep. They can push Trump out, get DeSantis out of Fla and do to him what they did and are still doing to Trump, throw in a rhino or two back in Fla and try and change the state back to blue.

Trump is doing a good job himself of trying to split off DeSantis supporters by his vindictive threats to spill the beans on him -

During an interview with Fox News Digital published Tuesday -

“I don’t know if he is running. I think if he runs, he could hurt himself very badly. I really believe he could hurt himself badly,” Trump said. “I think he would be making a mistake, I think the base would not like it — I don’t think it would be good for the party.”

Trump then alluded to exposing some dirt on DeSantis without specifying.

“I would tell you things about him that won’t be very flattering — I know more about him than anybody — other than, perhaps, his wife,” Trump said.

This marks the second time in less than a week that the former president has hit at Ron DeSantis after referring to him as “Ron DeSantimonious” during a rally over the weekend."

How can one gloss over such malicious insinuations when considering a president? Today he's blaming his wife for Oz' defeat by her "poor advice". In addition to which his fans seem quite blind to his refusal to acknowledge the devastating adverse events of the vaccines he continues to praise. A pity at his age he hasn't been able to overcome his overweening pride.

In my mind this shows how Trump is in it only for himself. His ego gets in the way. He is NOT STRATEGIC on behalf of the Republican Party at all. I would like to see a higher caliber Candidate for the Conservatives in 2024 (than Trump). He is too divisive, has a loose undisciplined tongue, isn’t polished nor impressive with the way he conducts business or makes decisions, he even reveals security concerns if he thinks it’ll show he’s an important man. It’s ridiculous. He’s a loose canon. We need someone who can reach across the aisle when needed to influence behaviors. Trump isn’t that.

Re: Trump & his behavior towards DeSantis. I’ve posted on his TruthSocial my plea to HUSH! Stop the rhetoric that damages the both!!!

I warned him he’ll lose MAGAS such as me.

I like his NYC street-fighter persona in busting up the Deep State; he needs to concentrate on finishing that job!

Join ranks w/ the best governor in America!

Not come across as jealous of him.

Trump is Trump

DeSantis is DeSantis

We need both strong

Trump needs to just get out of it. He's too old and too divisive. Anyone can see this from how much we still talk about him after 2 years of him not being in office.

Expand full comment
Martha Lisauckis's avatar

To be fair, we talk about Trump because of all the democrats and RINO’s hatred towards him and their intense desire to hang him for something. Jan 6 and the raids on his home and businesses since Biden took office were not done by Republicans and this narrative is being incessantly pushed by democrats, the main stream media and the far left liberals. I personally think he needs to tone it down some and show some humility, but he is in fight mode (I think) for his life as he’s known it. I mean they’re trying to ruin him, his businesses, his kids... I’d be fighting too.

I am in regular contact with many vocal conservatives ... we mostly feel the same about this “issue”, are just waiting to see which way we go ... both desantis and trump are strong leaders. I prefer the former because I had good time to witness trump weaknesses and honestly he’s a bit old and battle worn. Desantis is shiny and new and very inspiring! Anyway, I do not see this as much of a thing to worry over

Problem is, DeSantis will be bought and paid for by his big money donors. I don’t think he’ll be able to do what needs to be done, nor will he even be allowed to try. Trump can be independent enough and will at least try.

DeSantis means RINO GOPe in control and nothing really gets done. Just an illusion here and there. Trump means some great ideas but with the unrelenting hatred coming from his own party, the press and the Democrats, it will be very difficult to achieve what needs to be done.

I will support either, but I fundamentally disagree with the festival of hate on either side.
