John,

The first 10 days of the Trump administration have shown us exactly what's to come in the weeks and months ahead.

From ending birthright citizenship to pardoning January 6 rioters to suspending all federal grants, Trump's intent is clear:

He believes he has unchecked authority to rule by decree. And he’s counting on right-wing media and social platforms to spread lies and misinformation to justify his power grabs.

It’s the same playbook he used to win in 2024: flood the media landscape with falsehoods and rely on his allies to manipulate public opinion and silence dissent.

If you support independent progressive media that's not afraid to hold Trump accountable, chip in $25 today to support our fight for truth >>>> [[link removed]]

We’ll explain more in a moment, but can you chip in $25 to support the progressive media alternative America desperately needs? Together, we can lift up voices of truth and stand strong against the far right. [[link removed]]

Your support is critical right now because powerful institutions are folding at the moment we need them most:

* CNN leadership held a meeting before the inauguration, asking top anchors to tone down criticism of Trump. Jim Acosta ultimately left after being demoted in a clear attempt to appease Trump.
* After pulling its endorsement of Harris in 2024, The Washington Post may be abandoning its "Democracy Dies in Darkness" mission. Reports say employees are now expected to provide “Riveting Storytelling for All of America.”
* Meta's Mark Zuckerberg rolled back platform protections against disinformation and hate speech, admitting the changes were made in response to Trump’s election and MAGA critiques.

That’s why COURIER exists. We provide the progressive alternative our democracy urgently needs. Our 11 state-based newsrooms deliver fact-based journalism where disinformation thrives—reaching 4.5 million followers and generating nearly 2 billion social impressions before the last election.

But we can’t do it without you. With just 48 hours left in January, can you chip in $25 to help us close the $2,300 gap and keep fighting back

Chip in $25 or more to support COURIER before our end-of-January deadline at midnight. [[link removed]]

Chip in $25 now! [[link removed]]

Your support empowers us to counter disinformation, hold Trump accountable, and defend democracy when others are retreating.

Thank you for standing with us.

In solidarity,
The COURIER Team
