Remember in 3rd grade, when we learned about primary sources? It’s The Declaration of Independence, not a chapter about the Declaration of Independence in our history book. It’s a letter from George Washington to his wife, not a biography about George Washington.

In politics, primary sources come in the form of the actual bill, or the video footage of the speech (not just a clip), the economic report, etc.

Peel back the layers. Dig a little deeper. Keep digging until you find the truth, and back it up with receipts.
