23 December 18
We do have many donors and many of them are new donors, all encouraging signs. But overall donations are down a full 40% from just one year ago, December 2017.
Nearly 20,000 visitors will come to Reader Supported News today. If 1,000 make a donation we will be able to conclude a great December fundraiser - today.
It’s that stark.

And one year ago today, workers unwrapped a tax bill that gifted the country's millionaires and billionaires even more money."

Someone With Kavanaugh's Power
Dahlia Lithwick, Slate
Lithwick writes: "But whatever the intention, Kavanaugh's threat was a chillingly ugly one, and his subsequent not-quite-apology in the Wall Street Journal was not an adequate corrective. That's why more than 2,400 law professors refused to support him after that testimony."
