John,

Today marks one year since Donald Trump’s second inauguration.

If the last year has felt heavier — more tense, more exhausting — you’re not imagining it.

In just twelve months, journalists have been sued and targeted, newsrooms dragged into costly legal fights, protesters met with militarized responses, and grassroots groups like ActBlue and Indivisible put under investigation. 

The message is clear: stay quiet, or pay the price.

Fear is the point.

Too many outlets have backed down. COURIER hasn’t.

Before the month ends, we’re trying to find 5000 donors willing to stand with independent journalism and help us keep telling the truth.

If you believe courageous journalism still matters, will you chip in today to support COURIER?

Donate to support fearless journalism

Courage alone doesn’t fund reporting — people do. And right now, every contribution matters.

In solidarity, 

COURIER Newsroom
