Right now is no time to come up short.

It's time to fight like hell for a democracy where minority rule cannot impose an extreme and cruel agenda, where the Big Lie is called a Big Lie, where facts matter, and where accountability at the polls and in the press has a fighting chance. We have our work cut out for us, and we urgently need to raise about 400,000 by Thursday, June 30, to finish our fiscal year on track and give it everything we possibly can. Please help us get there with a donation if you can right now.

It's time to fight like hell for a democracy where minority rule cannot impose an extreme and cruel agenda, where facts matter, and where accountability at the polls and in the press has a fighting chance. We have our work cut out for us, and we still need to raise upwards of 400,000 by June 30 to give it everything we can. Please help:

Creepy. Via Feministe, apparently there’s a group called Netvocates out on the internet that offers its services to businesses. And what sort of services might those be? Well, if a blog sullies the honor of the business in question, Netvocates will send out a swarm of right-wingers to troll the offending post with propaganda in the comments section. Meanwhile, the Rendon Group—about which more here—may be doing monitoring lefty blogs, for what purpose who knows. It all sounds conspiratorial, but seriously, check out the links.
