Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Left Bias sources.

History
America, America is a Substack-based political commentary and analysis publication created and authored primarily by Steven Beschloss, as described on its About page. The site publishes at least twice-weekly essays reflecting on U.S. political, social, and democratic developments, with an explicit focus on threats to democracy, authoritarianism, extremism, and inequality.
Beschloss is an award-winning journalist, author, filmmaker, and former university professor whose work has appeared in outlets such as The New Yorker, The Washington Post, and The New York Times. The publication also features occasional contributions from other writers, including Kenneth Dillon, but is largely a personal, author-driven project rooted in opinionated political analysis rather than traditional newsroom reporting.

Funded by / Ownership

Revenue is generated through Substack subscriptions (free, paid, and founding memberships), which fund production costs and additional content offerings such as audio versions, Q&As, and community forums.
Analysis / Bias
America, America is an explicitly ideological opinion outlet that frames contemporary U.S. politics through a progressive, pro-democracy lens. The site regularly publishes strongly worded critiques of Donald Trump, Republican leadership, and right-wing movements, as seen in articles such as “We Can’t Let the Abuser-In-Chief Control the Narrative” and “The Goal Was (And Is) Dictatorship”. While the tone is often emotional and advocacy-driven, the articles typically rely on verifiable events, direct quotations, and reporting from established outlets such as NBC News, The Guardian, and The Hill.
Commentary pieces addressing racism and authoritarianism, including “Can America Ever Overcome the Scourge of Racism?”, blend historical context with modern political analysis, clearly separating opinion from factual references. However, opinions are usually one-sided.
