Elsewhere, Philadelphia police admitted they are tracking First Amendment activity critical of AI, a watchdog report found donors to Trump’s ballroom project later received roughly $50 billion in government contracts, and Pam Bondi says Todd Blanche was responsible for handling the Epstein files review.

About TYT

Our mission statement at TYT is to boldly pursue truth, challenge the establishment and drive positive change. We have never wavered from that. It’s not easy to state the truth when lies help the powerful retain their power. It’s not easy to challenge the establishment when the establishment has all the power. And as we’re all aware, it is very difficult to drive positive change in a system meant to continue the status quo so that the powerful can stay at the top.

But we have decided to go on this path with our viewers because it is the only decent and sane path. This means we don’t do blind partisanship. We don’t follow antiquated ideologies because someone said we’re supposed to. We also don’t bow our heads to any political leaders or parties. We believe in independent thought. We’re for open-hearts and open-minds.

This is a unique experiment in American media. We’re going to try to build a community around being honest and fighting for the average person. TYT has a bright line rule that we never play with the facts. Our unflinching honesty for over twenty years has made us the most trusted show in digital media and earned us the title of The Online News Network.

The idea that the news is supposed to be neutral and dispassionate is nonsensical. You’re supposed to care about the news! We do and our audience does. That means we report the facts, we analyze the context and then take action to make the world a little better. We believe in hope. We believe that we can work together to make a difference. We hope you join us on this journey.
