Ars Poetica with Backup from The Clark Sisters

"Over the past year you've read writers like Elie Mystal, Kaveh Akbar, John Nichols, Joan Walsh, Bryce Covert, Dave Zirin, Jeet Heer, Michael T. Klare, Katha Pollitt, Amy Littlefield, Gregg Gonsalves, and Sasha Abramsky take on the Trump family's corruption, set the record straight about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s catastrophic Make America Healthy Again movement, survey the fallout and human cost of the DOGE wrecking ball, anticipate the Supreme Court's dangerous antidemocratic rulings, and amplify successful tactics of resistance on the streets and in Congress."

"In 2026, our aim is to do more than ever before-but we need your support to make that happen. Through December 31, a generous donor will match all donations up to $75,000. That means that your contribution will be doubled, dollar for dollar. If we hit the full match, we'll be starting 2026 with $150,000 to invest in the stories that impact real people's lives-the kinds of stories that billionaire-owned, corporate-backed outlets aren't covering."

"With your support, our team will publish major stories that the president and his allies won't want you to read. We'll cover the emerging military-tech industrial complex and matters of war, peace, and surveillance, as well as the affordability crisis, hunger, housing, healthcare, the environment, attacks on reproductive rights, and much more. At the same time, we'll imagine alternatives to Trumpian rule and uplift efforts to create a better world, here and now."

Contributors examined Trump family corruption, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again movement, the DOGE wrecking ball's fallout, and anticipated Supreme Court antidemocratic rulings while amplifying resistance tactics. A donor will match all donations through December 31 up to $75,000, doubling contributions and potentially generating $150,000 to fund reporting in 2026. Planned coverage includes the emerging military‑tech industrial complex, war, surveillance, affordability crises, hunger, housing, healthcare, environmental impacts of AI data centers, attacks on reproductive rights, and grassroots alternatives to Trumpian rule. Donor support will empower journalists, editors, and fact‑checkers to investigate and hold powerful actors accountable.
