Lee Fang | How Lobbyists and Insiders Could Override Voters to Choose the Democratic Presidential Nominee



Reader Supported News
01 July 19

The results of our fundraising for the month of June were a full 20% lower than May. This will cause serious problems. We were battling the Democratic candidates who made a big push on the eve of the FEC second quarter deadline. RSN held its own but we did take significant losses.
On the bright side, a number of community members did step up and we greatly appreciate their efforts.
Let’s take a little break from fundraising until after the 4th of July.
In solidarity.
