We will be heading into election season proper in the months ahead. And we’d really like to be able to afford to cover it, and all that goes with it. As I’ve noted on a number of occasions over the past year or so, that is getting very difficult to afford here.

If you — or a rich friend or two of yours — can spare a few dollars to help assure that we continue independently blogging and broadcasting and covering stuff that actually matters free of corporate or partisan or foundational control or interference, it would be greatly appreciated. I continue to believe that’s very important and I hope that a few of you will recognize the value in what we do here, and the value and perspective that we bring to issues that are often found absolutely nowhere else.

I know there are many sites and organizations out there asking you for similar help these days. Many of them are multimillion dollar organizations. We are not. When we ask for your support, it’s because we really need your support to survive from month to month.

I’ll be on the road throughout the weekend (family obligations), so it may be quiet here for a few days, but you can use the form below to help while we’re gone. Please consider taking the 90 seconds or so that is required to do so. Monthly sustaining contributions mean the most, as they may serve to offer us some much needed stability in the year ahead, if you can afford to help in that way. If not, we’re also very grateful for a few dollars or more to help with our costs, or even gas money, as we take some rare down time over the weekend as the first of a few short, but obligatory breaks over this summer season.

Thank you for your consideration, and especially to those who are able to step up and help out in any way…
