We get a lot of hate mail at Public Citizen.
Here is just a fraction of what we’ve seen recently (with the expletives edited out):
“You are killers and criminals. F*** you.”
“I can’t wait to see you crying in November after Trump is reelected. F*** off and die!”
“TRY TO F*** WITH OUR FREEDOMS & THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.......and ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE!!! WE, THE PEOPLE have been preparing for this for YEARS!!!! BRING IT ON MOTHERF***ERS!!!!! FKN GLOBALIST PIGS!!!! You DELUSIONAL PSYCHOPATHS!!!!! THE SECOND AMERICAN REVOLUTION will SOON commence!!”
“F*** YOU, Robert.”
“F*** Public Citizen.”
I know not everyone wants to see language like that. But I think it’s important to be aware of the sheer vitriol directed at the work you and Public Citizen are doing together.
Of course, we have no intention whatsoever of backing down.
And I’m hoping you can donate today to give us the financial strength we need to continue fighting — and winning — as we stand up to plutocracy and fascism.
A group of benefactors will match anything you contribute dollar-for-dollar — up to $50,000 — but only until midnight tonight.
Donate now.
Thank you for standing with us.
In unity,
- Robert Weissman, President of Public Citizen
P.S. If you've donated recently, thank you. At such a critical moment — and with the dollar-for-dollar match in effect only until midnight tonight — I’m hoping I can ask you to dig a little deeper and make another contribution if you’re able. Either way, my thanks again for your ongoing support of this shared project we call Public Citizen.
