You're getting this message because you’ve supported good causes and Democratic candidates. We need your support to continue fighting for our democracy. We love having you in our network, but if you no longer wish to hear from us, you can unsubscribe here.

Update: Incredibly, just when you think Fox Entertainment (I'll never use "News" in referring to them again) has reached the lowest depths of the gutter, with texts proving they knew they were lying to their viewers about "election fraud" and did it anyhow, likely playing a role in incting January 6th, they get worse.

Tucker Carlson's been using the 40,000 hours of Jan 6th video the vile Kevin McCarthy gave only to him, to cherry pick parts of it to pretend the violent coup attempt was a friendly walk in the park. Even Mitch McConnell said it was false, and Republian Senator Thom Tillis referred to it as "bullshit." After all the damage Fox has done to our democracy, to humanity, the unhinged, desipicable Carlson is still trying to destroy us even more. He, and they, must be stopped. Please read the rest below for one way we can begin curtailing their disastrous influence on our country.

John,

Fox News is a propaganda organization. Dangerous conspiracy-mongers that pollute the minds of millions of Americans, turning them into right-wing kooks and Russian sympathizers.

You may have seen the news re the Dominion Voting Systems' lawsuit vs Fox. It produced texts and emails proving Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, their supposedly *serious newsman* Brett Baier and owner Rupert Murdoch knew Trump's bs about "election fraud" was just that. Bs. But like the treacherous jackals they are, they repeated it anyhow.

Because, Fox cares only for ratings and profits, not anything approaching integrity or their fellow human beings. Fox has turned tens of millions of Americans against their country, communities and democracy.

Will you join Blue Amp Action in giving VoteVets $5, $10, $25 or whatever you can so they can promote this video far and wide and begin the process of de-Foxing our country to stabilize our democracy?

So, It's a sick joke this station can call itself news, much less be played at our military bases. In fact, one in seven of those who stormed the Capitol in an attempted coup had military experience. As an American, and son of a father who spent much of his career on a military base, it's sickening we allow Fox's cabal of conspiracists anywhere near our military to convince our troops to not only hate their country, but use their training to attack it.

DONATE NOW

That's why I support VoteVets' effort to get the Pentagon to ban Fox on U.S. military bases, and hope you will too! VoteVets created an outstanding video to make their case, and if we can get them resources, more people will see it.

Thank you for taking on this vicious propaganda.

Cliff

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world.

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits.

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
