So exactly what news sources are you going to allow me to use in order to be credible in your eyes ?

CNN, MSDNC, NYT, WaPo, ABC, CBS, NBC and many others... 
 
Don't you get it? The question you are asking of others "So exactly what news sources are you going to allow me to use in order to be credible in your eyes ?" is exactly the question that everyone already had of you since you posted your laundry list of "non credible" sources and the whole reason you were responded to in the way you were.
 
Arguing in circles with you is pointless.

You presume to make a lot of half-baked assumptions. I read the thread below. You laid claim that because of issues CNN has had means they are not trustworthy. The retort back was that the same could be said of Fox because of the problems it is having. Period. And you didn't even make that connection when it was first posted.

Supposedly Hochul did say that, but more diplomatically.  

Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., asked Hochul, “Do you go along with the strategy from the Biden administration, which massively expanded immigration protocols that overwhelmed your city and overwhelmed your state?” “We call for secure borders,” Hochul interjected, prompting Donalds to retort, “I never remember you calling for secure borders at all, governor.”
“You’re putting a federal problem on our laps. And know what? It gets old after a while,” Hochul responded. “I wish you would just do your job.”

At another point, Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, asked Pritzker about whether he thought that “biological men should be able to use women’s restrooms.”  Prtizker eventually replied, “So you’re admitting that this is just a political circus.”  Hochul, for her part, said Trump’s actions “absolutely undermine the sovereignty of individual states.”

And you wonder why people here seem to harsh on you. You're not interested in an intelligent debate, Kurt. You just want to yell, insult and feel insulted. You refuse to deal with evidence that contradicts or refutes your cherished, bitter beliefs.  If you're not being paid to be the troll that you are, you're missing out on easy money.

True.
First they shipped the migrants into the blue cities...those mayors attempted to take care of that population, helping with housing and jobs...
Now that they are working, settled into the population, the Magas send in the troops to beat them out. I mean, talk about inefficiency?

Trump's Brotherhood of the Corrupt
Why the president displays an affection for the world's crooks: If nobody is corrupt, then Trump is not corrupt.
In February, President Donald Trump issued an executive order suspending enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, pending a review. This week, enforcement was partly reinstated, but drastically narrowed. That brought back some personal memories.

As an investigator for Wisconsin's great progressive senator, William Proxmire, in the 1970s, I was responsible for developing two pieces of landmark legislation—the Community Reinvestment Act and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. When I pass on to my reward, I'd like to be remembered for co-founding the Prospect and for my work with Sen. Proxmire on the Senate Banking Committee. It was my graduate school in political economy and the basis for my subsequent career as an economics journalist.

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act was a response to an epidemic of bribery by U.S. corporations of foreign government officials. It had become almost standard practice for American corporate executives to grease foreign palms in order to get contracts. A particularly notorious case involved Lockheed, which bribed leaders of Japan, West Germany, and other nations to sell aircraft. Lockheed even bribed Japanese Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka, resulting in his resignation when the bribes were disclosed. (...)
