Let me be brief, Jack: Daily Kos is $89,437 away from its monthly fundraising goal. Can you donate $5 right now to help us close the books on October?

DONATE
Here's why these monthly goals are important:

As online ad money has been vacuumed up by Big Tech companies like Amazon, Facebook and Google, tens of thousands of news jobs have been lost and whole outlets have shut down operations.
Some of the outlets that have survived have been bought out by billionaires looking to own prestige properties like the Washington Post.
Daily Kos remains a progressive, independent news outlet thanks to small donations from readers like you.
Donations of just a few bucks at a time make up more than HALF our income! That means meeting these monthly goals are vitally important to staying online and staying free from billionaire backers and big corporate sponsors.

So please, if you haven't already, donate $5 now to help us close the books on October.

DONATE
Thank you,
Michael Langenmayr, Daily Kos
