I still get chills thinking about what we pulled off together last month.
Because we kept our cameras rolling, we exposed that massive 8(a) contracting scam — executives on hidden tape admitting they were gaming the system for hundreds of millions. Tribal members we interviewed called it straight: "They're renting our sovereignty."
And it worked. The SBA suspended ATI Government Solutions. The Treasury Department launched a $9 billion investigation.
Real fraudsters are sweating, real money is being clawed back for taxpayers — all because a few thousand everyday Americans like you said, "Enough is enough.
That's the power we have when we stand together. No corporate overlords. No government strings. Just pure, citizen-funded journalism that forces accountability. Are you in?
But right now, I'm writing you from the war room because we've got something even larger locked in — insiders ready to blow open the kind of entrenched corruption that makes the 8(a) mess look like small change.
The kind involving leverage, compromise, the shadows where power really hides.
The team is geared up and raring to go. Whistleblowers are putting everything on the line.
But we're staring at a $38,000 shortfall to launch safely: cross-country flights for undercover meets, secure tech that can't be traced, legal shields for sources, and keeping paychecks coming for the staff who work 80-hour weeks without complaint because they believe in this mission as much as I do.
When I started my career as an investigative journalist, I was scraping by on credit cards and prayers. Then the FBI raided me, the lawsuits piled up — and it was only because Americans like you stood by me. I need you again now.
I'm a journalist who's paid a price for this work — arrests, betrayals, everything but regret.
And the one thing that keeps me going is knowing there are friends like you who understand: if the price of truth isn't your life, then you're for sale.
