Talking Points Memo is taking down its paywall this month - so you can see what you would get if you subscribed. I applied for a free subscription several years back because I'm on SNAP. Anyway, it is the most commonsensical news analysis, not distracted by shiny objects, useful in putting issues in perspective.
TPM – Talking Points Memo

I really recommend subscribing if you want analysis that looks at how important or trivial some of the trending stories are. There is also excellent new reporting.
