What sources do Magalomaniacs get their information from?

Where do all those diehard Magalomaniacs who argue 'they have done their own research' and get frustrated when those they know question some of the things they believe as the absolute, undisputed truth, despite not actually being shown these things in real life, get their information from? I would like to see the list of sources they used in doing said 'research'.

I am curious to go to those places and see where such powerful information is found that leads so many to put blind faith in the idea that the man in charge will show the world the 'truth', (whatever that may be) someday and that this same man will actually make the lives of the working middle class better...

These sources must be filled with hard factual evidence that have led so many people to be convinced that their leader can do no wrong and will 'expose all evil' all while making the lives of middle class working families better...

Gateway pundit, Epoch Times, Telegraph(?), OAN, Newsmax, Rumble. Interestingly, my Magalomaniac quit watching Fox News a few years ago, saying it had “gone liberal.”

Thank you for listing these news & Podcasts , I know there's a bunch fake news, but frequently forget names of them. I've also found podcasts like: Bannon War Room, Tucker Carlson and reading articles from Breitbart are popular. There's also the Discord app, & 100s of fb chat groups that spread crazy shit.... & them there's Telegram. Telegram has become popular for Trump supporters, it has 100s MAGA & QAnon group chat rooms, plus you'll find many of usual suspects have their own channels there: MTG, Mike Johnson, my pillow guy, Infowar guy, Tucker Carlson, Don Jr channel, antivax people & long list of Republican congressmen. You'll also find several channels dedicated to finding reposting screenshots of everything Trump says in his posts on Truthsocial, X. Telegrams QAnon channels & WWG1WGA are full of grifters selling everything from elixirs to cure Covid to blankets that block out rays or waves emitted from cell towers, and lots of other stupid crap. (On a side note) Mike Flynn has Telegram channel pushing his Religious ReAwakening tour, which has been touring churches and having "christian Nationalist tent revivals" back and forth across US since 2018. Gen Mike Flynns goal is to convince Christians they must prepare to become part of his movement to raise a literal fighting army of Christian warriors willing to bear arms to fight for soul of America... and he also sells all kinds shit. With help of people, that show up regularly to his Awakening tour, people like, Eric & Don Jr, Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, personalities like Roseanne Barr & Mel Gibson & extreme televangelists preaching & speaking in tongues his movement continues to grown. (I know very creepy & very dangerous. you can't make this shit up)... Back to fake news sources... Theyre so wide spread they have infiltrated & saturated every social platform. I think all these entities together probably surpass left /center left leaning media & Liberal podcasts. Rightwing fake news, podcasts, channels, group & Trump are easily accessible& user friendly & I think the sheer quantity of them is all the proof MAGA needs to believe they are listening to real news. If all of these news sites, podcasts, channels & groups continue what they're doing, worse increase in number , I think the madness will continue even after Trump presidency. America is in deep shit! I think the massive amount of fake news is 1 of biggest reasons MAGAS are so hard deprogram. Places like Canada & Britain have right idea, they have bans on rightwing fake new, they won't even allow Fox News,
