This might not work for everybody, but here is what I do. 1) Set up a variety of news alerts on my phone, local, national, international. Al Jazeera is excellent. CBC is also good. 2) Get the headlines but don't read the articles. Don't pay attention to stories without at least 2 alerts.
3) Rely on trusted analysts to tell you what is actually going on. I've been reading Talking Points Memo and Lawyers Guns and Money for this purpose for 20+ years. Then I go to Bluesky, but it can get too chaotic. I always check Jamelle Bouie and Adam Serwer in a crisis.
I think that’s part of the strategy, overwhelm US to shutdown our defences, short out our responses, and stun US into tacit acceptance. Trump’s had four years to practice his “offensive” messaging and gotten better, we got complacent and have gotten worse at counter measures. We need to up our game.
