John,

At midnight, we face a critical fundraising deadline. We’d be grateful if you took a moment to read why supporting COURIER matters right now — but if you’re able, please chip in today to help us build the progressive media alternative this country urgently needs: [[link removed]]

CHIP-IN BEFORE MIDNIGHT >>> [[link removed]]

Donald Trump and MAGA are escalating their war on fundamental American rights like free speech and dissent. Instead of holding him accountable, the billionaires and corporate boards behind media outlets and online platforms are pre-complying with his demands — offering him soft, uncritical coverage to protect their profits.

The result? A historically unpopular president is being treated like an unstoppable force in American politics.

But here’s the truth:

* According to Nate Silver’s analysis, Trump’s disapproval is at one of its highest points since his first term.
* Silver’s data also shows Trump is 30 points underwater on inflation, 16 on the economy, and that a majority of Americans disapprove of his draconian immigration policy — his supposed signature issue.
* A recent Quinnipiac poll found, for the first time, Trump’s disapproval rating climbing into double digits among Republicans.

The media rarely tells this story. Instead, Trump keeps dominating the headlines, with news outlets salivating over his bizarre social media posts and manufactured crises.

Meanwhile, they downplay the most important truth of this moment: the most unpopular president in American history is trying to radically expand his power in deeply undemocratic ways—from controlling what comedians say on TV to targeting grassroots groups like ActBlue and Indivisible that organize voters to defeat MAGA.

That’s why your support for COURIER matters so much before tonight’s deadline.

We’re one of the last grassroots-funded, independent news networks still growing — telling the truth about Trump and MAGA in the communities where disinformation spreads fastest.

We’re just hours from our September deadline, and we still need to raise $15,000 to stay on track and reach our goal before midnight: [[link removed]]

Trump’s division and anger are dominating our politics because the media is too scared to confront him. We believe that’s not good enough and we also believe we can change that with your help.

In solidarity,
The COURIER Team
