Hey Guys! We’ll be down for a few days to take advantage of a long weekend for a much<\/i> needed break.<\/p>\n

Don’t let Trump take over your<\/i> 4th of July celebration! (He’ll probably get rained out anyway if the gods are with us. But he’ll likely be able to see himself in the mirror<\/a> nonetheless. So there’s that. Tanks, but no tanks<\/a>, Mr. President!)<\/p>\n

We’re back at the top of the week. But, until then, if you haven’t tossed a few dollars in the tip jar<\/b><\/a> of late, please consider doing so to help us get some early speed as we barrel towards the impossible 2020 election season, when we’ll need all the help we can get!<\/p>\n

It’s tough out here for everyone<\/i> in the media “biz”, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, but damned near impossible for independent<\/i> progressive journalists, trouble-makers and muckrakers like us. So anything and everything you can do to help us keep going is very<\/i> much appreciated!<\/p>\n

One time donations are great. Monthly sustaining subscriptions of any amount you like are even greater…At least until we too can figure out how to scam the National Park Service<\/a> out of their entrance fee funds!<\/p>\n

Stay safe. Be cool. And try to love one another — right now! Or at least at some point over this holiday weekend… — Brad<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
