It has been one year since Donald Trump took office again. In that time, the pressure on independent journalism has only intensified.
This administration has tried in vain to silence us. We’ve been insulted. We’ve been shut out. We’ve been told to fall in line or fall silent.
We chose neither.
From day one, our newsroom made a commitment: We will not back down. We will not dilute the truth to avoid retaliation. And we will not stop asking hard questions, no matter who is in power or how loudly they push back.
Our members make it possible for our journalists to keep reporting freely and fearlessly. Your support helps fund investigations, accountability reporting, and on-the-ground coverage that powerful interests would rather you never see. When access is restricted and attacks escalate, member support becomes not just meaningful, but essential.
