THE STANDARD

Claims should be checkable.

We separate documented facts from commentary and link readers to original government and campaign materials whenever possible.

EDITORIAL STANDARD: This is an informational/accountability project, not an official government website. Political characterizations are presented as analysis and should be evaluated against the linked source material. The site does not claim that an organization or individual is a member of DSA unless a reliable source establishes that fact.

THE ACCOUNTABILITY TEST

Ask three questions.

  1. What exactly was said or done?
  2. What source proves it?
  3. What would the policy mean in practice?

FACT ≠ OPINION

Labels require evidence.

Words such as “socialist,” “DSA-aligned,” “progressive,” or “far left” can be political descriptions rather than objective classifications. This site therefore identifies the underlying action or statement first and leaves the characterization visible as analysis rather than disguising it as fact.
