This describes me to a tee. I plugged my ears on all of the campaign stuff knowing I was going to vote D regardless of what was happening on the politics side.

I work in international development and there is already enough sadness and frustration in keeping abreast of news in that sphere.

Now I can't afford to blissfully ignore all US political news so I need to do some reading to understand what's coming my way. I really hate it here.

Same. Did you find any good resources? I got sidetracked and depressed.

I found 2 resources I believe I can trust. There is a snopes article that lays out the basics.

Plus a local NPR station podcast in San Francisco that goes over the whole document in 13 episodes. I'm only two episodes in so far.

I don't think I actually want to read the 900+ page document.
