Friend, The outcome of 2024 delivered a painful realization: the pro-democracy movement must improve its ability to mobilize. We now face the most critical election of our lifetimes. The November midterms are an absolute necessity for shifting momentum and decisively securing the future of our democracy. The opposition knows this, too. Backed by dark money, right-wing media is operating a relentless machine of noise and distraction, aiming to secure their win by ensuring Americans tune out. They are turning up the heat because they feel the pressure—and we must turn it up higher. At Lincoln Square, we are the defiant opposition. Our core mission is to create a stronger, action-ready coalition of pro-democracy Americans, equipped not just with the news, but with the insignts to defend our freedoms for generations to come. This is how we’ll do it: Editorial Power: Turning Insights into ActionOur editorial content strategy for 2026 is as sharp and focused as the threats we face. We are mobilizing an unmatched roster of experts—from election-winning political strategists to constitutional scholars, healthcare policy experts, and national defense authorities—to lead the charge with:
Mobilizing for an Electoral Reset with a Precision-Targeted VictoryOur Goal: Achieving a defining victory in the 2026 midterms—flipping key State and U.S. House seats. We are building a robust, data-driven digital and media infrastructure dedicated to maximizing voter mobilization. Our goal is to deliver an indisputable electoral mandate that dismantles the current authoritarian momentum. We will leverage advanced strategic communication tools, transforming the very channels previously used to sow division into platforms that unify, inform, and drive our pro-democracy coalition to victory. Priority 1: Weaponizing AccountabilityWe translate information into action: The goal is not just to inform the audience, but to provoke them into organized political action (voting, contacting officials, protesting). How? Our Rapid-Response Team will expose the current administration’s corruption, conflicts of interest, and unconstitutional power grabs. We turn their daily assault on our democracy into social media content with short-form video and viral infographics to inform disengaged voters and voters in key swing districts, driving down approval for vulnerable incumbents who support policies that negatively impact everyday Americans. Priority 2: Localizing the National ThreatThe battle for Congress will be won in the narrowest districts. We use our content to directly link national policies—like deregulation and the extremist Project 2025 agenda—to job losses, rising costs, and a degraded quality of life in specific, flippable red districts. Priority 3: Defending the Ballot BoxWe proactively pre-bunk election disinformation and educate voters on the importance of key state-level races. Our work safeguards the 2026 results and protects the democratic transfer of power in 2028 and beyond. This is Where Your Investment Makes a Direct Impact.The foundation for our 2026 strategy is already built. We have been busy testing, optimizing, and making data-driven decisions to ensure every dollar of your investment in Lincoln Square achieves the widest and most effective reach. The results speak for themselves: Since launching in March, our content has been seen over 500 million times, informing more than 150 million Americans across all social media platforms. Your continued investment directly scales our ability to reach more Americans with the truth. A significant investment could truly make a direct impact on defending democracy by allowing us to increase our budgets for laser-targeted paid ads with the viral graphics that amplify the truth straight into the feeds to even more of the most crucial voters. The Republicans are turning up the heat because they know they’re losing. We must stay vigilant and build on this momentum year-round.

Every $20.26 donated reaches 2,000 key American voters. Your donation is a direct pipeline to the voters who will flip red seats and defend democracy for years to come.
