Dear Friend, Thank you for being a free subscriber to Lincoln Square. Because of you, we are among the top 10 fastest-rising political communities on Substack. We hope that you’ve enjoyed the content we make available for free subscribers, but we will be paywalling some of our most popular content soon. We don’t want you to miss out on some exciting new shows—including a new show debuting next week with January 6 hero, Michael Fanone—and that’s just one of the many exciting events we have planned for our paid subscribers. …and as you know, free speech in America is under attack, with constitutional guarantees being eroded by the very people sworn to uphold them. The chilling effect is undeniable: We've seen the cancellation of shows hosted by Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert and the firing of political analyst Matthew Dowd, all under pressure from the FCC and the Trump administration. This isn't just about entertainment or a few individuals; it's a calculated effort to silence dissent and control the national conversation. When powerful voices are muzzled, the public loses a vital source of information and critique, leaving our democracy to die in darkness. But we will not stand idly by. At Lincoln Square, we refuse to capitulate to this pressure. We will continue to fight for the rights of all Americans to speak freely, to question authority, and to hold those in power accountable. The struggle for a free press and a vibrant democracy is ongoing. We are committed to ensuring that the light of truth continues to shine — no matter how hard others try to extinguish it. We will never bend the knee to Trump. Even Trump’s threats to sue The Lincoln Project have us unfazed. In fact, we are turning up the volume on our commentary, analysis, and amplifying the short-form video content we use to inform Americans across social media. We aren’t afraid of Donald Trump or his DOJ goons. However, we need your help to do this.

There’s another, equally important mission you become a part of when you become a paid subscriber: A portion of every paid subscription goes directly toward our mission to amplify the truths that Trump is working to suppress, to disengaged Americans and those living in red districts and red states. We believe it's vital to show how certain policies, actions and threats to our freedoms will directly hurt Americans and our democracy. With your support, we can ensure that this information reaches the people who need to hear it most. The truth needs a voice. Your paid subscription helps us amplify it. Why is this so important? Because democracy depends on informed citizens. When Americans learn how Trump’s authoritarian policies impact their lives, they mobilize. The more Americans who understand what’s at stake, the more Americans will rise up and take action. When more Americans that are informed, the more Americans will rise up and take to the streets. Together, we can turn more Americans out for the October 18th No Kings protest. We need to show up in larger numbers than ever before.
