John,
Once in my early thirties, during a lull in my career and at a moment of creative inspiration, I attempted to pen a piece of fiction, largely for my own entertainment and definitely not to write the Great American Novel.

We’re able to move more quickly than traditional media and take more risks because we know that we are in a brand new information landscape — and the far Right and the GOP are lightyears ahead of the majority of the country and are kicking us in the teeth with their vast and sophisticated disinformation networks.
We have to catch up fast, and we have to take no prisoners — especially when dealing with morally bankrupt and power-hungry fascists like Lauren Boebert.
But those risks come with trade offs, and that’s why we ask for your support. Can you contribute to American Muckrakers and make sure that enemies of democracy like Lauren Boebert know that we’re not going to stay silent, and that we’re not going away anytime soon? |

Thank you, sincerely, for standing with us.
