Friends:

We are building a grassroots-funded media outlet that follows the money and challenges power — and we broke a series of big stories this week. As Gizmodo noted, Judge Amy Barrett could “end up being a deciding vote on a case involving Shell and cities seeking money to pay climate change-fueled damages, according to original reporting from The Daily Poster.

This is the kind of hard-hitting reporting we do everyday — and we can do more with your help. We are right now aiming to hire more journalists to try to build out a whole newsroom of reporters to hold politicians accountable — during this election and afterward.

If all of our free subscribers receiving this email become a $5-a-month or $50-a-year subscriber, we would have the resources to have a full newsroom of reporters to follow the money and scrutinize power. We’re already doing that and having big impact — but we could be doing so much more.

Media funded by billionaires and corporations will never consistently hold power accountable. That’s why we are building this grassroots-funded media outlet.
