Become a Paid Blue Amp Subscriber — Power the Soundcheck Fund!
This Is What Fighting Back Looks Like, My Friends
They’ve got billionaires. We’ve got each other.
Every day, the MAGA machine—propped up by oil barons, tech oligarchs, and authoritarian billionaires—pumps out disinformation designed to confuse, divide and conquer.
You know it. You feel it. And if you’re like me, you’re sick of watching them steamroll the truth. And you’re angry at what they’re doing to our country.
That’s why we created the Soundcheck Fund.
It’s simple: We’ll expose the grift, call out the lies and give real journalists and creators a megaphone—our megaphone—to tell the truth. We have already put five figures into The Soundcheck Fund—out of our own pockets—to kick it off with grants to creators.
But to build a force that can’t be bought and won’t be silenced, we need one other thing: YOU.
Why This Matters
Right now, we’re growing Blue Amp into one of the most trusted voices on the left.
We’re independent. We’re fierce. We have a huge platform. And we don’t answer to corporate gatekeepers.
But freedom isn’t free. Never has been.
The Soundcheck Fund is how we fund the resistance—dozens of truth-tellers across the country. An ecosystem.
If you’ve been getting these newsletters for free, and you’ve found value in them…
If you believe we need a stronger pro-democracy movement—of creators, journalists, broadcasters, etc..
Then here’s how you can help:

This isn’t a donation. It’s an act of resistance.
You’re not just buying a subscription. You’re building the only kind of journalism that can save democracy: independent, relentless, unafraid. At exactly the moment we need it.
Thanks for being here.
For reading.
For caring.
Let’s take the next step—together.
