Friend,

On Saturday, internal United States Postal Service documents were
released showing a 7-to-9 percent decline in mail delivery going back to
July—a slowdown far worse than previously known.

These blockbuster documents directly contradict testimony by Postmaster
General and Trump donor Louis DeJoy and provide the most concrete
evidence to date of how the Trump administration's attacks on the postal
service will disenfranchise voters this November unless swift action is
taken to reverse the damage caused by DeJoy and Trump.

But the corporate media barely even took note of these stunning
revelations.

As usual, the corporate media was too busy covering the latest shiny
object from Donald Trump, from the inane QAnon conspiracy theory to
Trump's birther lies about Kamala Harris.

As the November election approaches, Trump's voter suppression tactics
will only accelerate. It is imperative that Common Dreams has the
resources to report out everything the Trump administration and
Republicans are doing to disenfranchise voters and undermine the
election. And as a nonprofit news source, we refuse corporate
advertising and instead rely on donations from our readers to make sure
we have the freedom and independence to follow the facts and not just
chase clicks, ratings, and ad revenue.

We are in the middle of our pre-election Summer Fundraising Campaign,
aiming to raise $80,000 by September 1. Once that fundraising campaign
ends, we will have to finalize budget decisions about how much staff
time and resources we can commit to covering the election. That's why we
cannot fall short.

Will you chip in to help support nonprofit progressive journalism to
stop the slow-motion coup that Donald Trump is engineering in order to
undermine the November election and keep himself in power?
