Jack,

Senate Republicans voted this week to strip funding from NPR and PBS.

Why? Because truth is dangerous in an authoritarian movement.

This isn’t about budgets. It’s about control. They’re trying to wipe out independent journalism—especially anything that doesn’t worship Trump or repeat MAGA talking points. They want to replace fact-based reporting with propaganda.

We’ve seen this playbook before. Trump’s DOJ came after Daily Kos, and thanks to you, we fought back—and won. But we’re not out of the woods. Every time they silence a voice, the rest of us become a bigger target.

If you’ve already chipped in, thank you. If you haven’t yet, we need you now more than ever. Chip in here to support Daily Kos.

They’re coming after the truth. We’re not going anywhere.

P.S. Defunding NPR won’t be the last move. They want to dismantle every platform that challenges their grip on power. Donate here if you’re with us.
