About

The Trump campaign and emerging administration are in many ways unprecedented—and dangerously so—in American history. The volume of news and controversy generated is also unprecedented. Trump has often suggested “opening up” libel laws—a direct assault on the First Amendment and its protection for citizens. Presterity is a tool to be used in defense of those rights.

Presterity is a community project that grounds and orients citizens to the best available sources of information on a wide variety of related topics. Our mission is to document and inform, ideally limiting the damage Trump can do.

Presterity is staffed by volunteers. We accept no advertising and our funding comes from our organizers.


There is a link for submitting news. They are also in the market for volunteers.

It is fairly well organized (topics/subtopics). It has a simple search. (It would be nice to have a more advanced search with filters, but perhaps that will come as they develop the site.) Here's a portion of the hierarchy.
