Dear Jack,

Trump is back—and he’s as reckless and dangerous as ever.

We already knew his merry band of idiots leaked highly sensitive U.S. war plans. But every day, we’re learning just how devastating this breach really is. The latest:

Military intelligence was casually exposed, risking the lives of our airmen and sailors.

Unsurprisingly, Trump allies are dismissing the risk, after losing their minds over Hillary Clinton’s innocuous emails.

And of course, right-wing media is doing their darndest to bury the truth.

This isn’t just politics—it’s a national security crisis. And Trump? He doesn’t care. He’ll burn everything down if it helps him cling to power. And tyrants need to surround themselves with useful idiots.

At Daily Kos, we’re not letting this get buried under the next Trump outrage. We’re tracking every leak, every lie, every threat to democracy. But we can’t do it without you.

If you want the truth to break through the noise, we need your help right now. Chip in $5, $25, or whatever you can today.

Here’s the reality:

• The media wants to move on, and Trump is banking on their short attention span and double standards.
• Trump’s disinformation machine is running full speed, muddying the waters and attempting to change the subject.
• The 2024 election chaos hasn’t ended—it’s metastasizing, with consequences for 2026 and 2028.

But you’ve seen what Daily Kos can do. We call out the liars, expose the corruption, and cut through the spin. We don’t water it down. We don’t play both sides. And we’re not afraid to name Trump and his allies for what they are: a direct threat to democracy.

If that’s what you want from your media, we need you to step up. Can you be one of 1,000 readers today helping us keep this story in the spotlight where it belongs? Donate $5, $25, or whatever you can.

With gratitude and determination,
