34 DONATIONS, 4 HIGH FIVES AND AN STFU - Yesterday was a banner day for RSN fundraising. 34 people responded with contributions. 4 people wrote in wishing they could give more and and saying in essence, “keep going!” - Thank you for those. And 1 person wrote in saying in effect. “shut the f**k up!” (STFU.) Beautiful. In all we raised $1,130. for the day which was no where near an RSN record but it will absolutely help. Thank you sincerely and let’s finish this thing off! / Marc Ash, Founder Reader Supported News

Why a Younger Hillary Clinton May Never Have Had a Chance
Chloe Angyal, Reuters
