Jane Mayer | "Kochland" Examines the Koch Brothers' Early, Crucial Role in Climate-Change Denial
15 August 19
This is a Serious Struggle for Support. Make no mistake about it we are giving these funding drives everything we have now. No you can't have it for free. You can have something for free but it won't something you control, it will be something that controls you. A lot of good sincere people support RSN. Don't just stand back and let them do it alone, work with them help them - build RSN.
Thank you.

The idea of an ad hoc group to reassess the government's climate science findings represents a modified version of a plan championed by William Happer, the National
Happer, who headed an advocacy group called the CO2 Coalition before joining the administration in the fall, has challenged the scientific consensus on climate change inside and outside of government.
Public records show the coalition, which describes its mission as informing policymakers and the public of the “important contribution made by carbon dioxide to our lives and the economy,” has received money from far-right organizations and donors with fossil fuel interests.
In 2017, according to federal tax filings obtained by the Climate Investigations Center, the group received $170,000 from the Mercer Family Foundation and more than $33,000 from the Charles Koch Institute.
Juliet Eilperin, Josh Dawsey and Brady Dennis, The Washington Post
Excerpt: "The White House plans to create an ad hoc group of select federal scientists to reassess the government's analysis of climate science and counter conclusions that the continued burning of fossil fuels is harming the planet, according to three senior administration officials."

VoteVets.org : You simply have to see this
See this from the USA Today?
Out of the five outside spending groups that have run the most ads this cycle, four are Republican. Only one supports Democrats.
That’s us.
But the truth is, unlike those other groups, we have received nearly 100,000 individual donations to fund that work. And you can see how important that is — especially with so much at stake this cycle. So we have to ask:
VoteVets is able to run ads in places others can’t — places we need to win in order to retake the Senate. We’re able to because of you. So thank you in advance for chipping in as part of this deadline.
All our best,
The team at VoteVets
