Dear Friend,

On Saturday in El Paso, an anti-immigrant white supremacist with an
assault rifle killed 22 people.

Then, just hours later, another nine people were murdered in a mass
shooting in Dayton, Ohio.

America has now seen 251 mass shootings this year alone—and the
corporate media still won't report the basic reality of why this is
happening: too many guns, not enough gun laws, and a bigot in the White
House whipping up white supremacists.

Common Dreams is holding Donald Trump and the NRA accountable for the
epidemic of gun violence.&nbsp;Will you make a donation to Common Dreams

No other country has anywhere near the rates of gun violence and mass
shootings that we have in the U.S.

But the response of the mainstream media has become almost as
maddeningly predictable as the shootings themselves — pretending that
the solutions are some big mystery, refusing to label Trump a white
supremacist, and blaming "both sides" for inaction.

And then there's Fox News, which simply spouts NRA talking points and
defending Trump no matter what he says or does.

At Common Dreams, we're not afraid to call BS on the NRA.

When a pro-NRA politician sends "thoughts and prayers" to the victims of
gun violence, we will call them out.

We connect the dots between the rise in white nationalism and Donald
Trump's incitements of violence.

Journalism is essential for the functioning of democracy, and Common
Dreams is the independent, nonprofit news source with the courage to
report the facts about guns and racism. Will you make a donation today?

Yes, I'll make a donation.
