We have a unique problem. A large dedicated audience that is averse to supporting the project. While there may be reasons, good and bad, the net effect is a constant headache for everyone.
To expect that 1% of the subscribers would respond to the funding appeals seems like a modest aspiration.
We are going to have to find a way to raise the level of participation. You apparently rely on RSN, and we clearly rely on you.
Need to find a way to make this work.

FOCUS: Robert Reich | Trump Is Seriously, Frighteningly Unstable - the World Is in Danger
Robert Reich, Guardian UK
Reich writes: "In retrospect, what's most disturbing about 'Sharpiegate' isn't Trump's clumsy effort to doctor a National Weather Service map or even his brazen move to get the same agency to lie on his behalf."

EXCERPT:
Two Republicans who have announced primary challenges to him have suggested another possibility: the 25th amendment.
Former Massachusetts governor Bill Weld recently tweeted that Trump is “a clear and present danger” to the US, with the hashtag “#25thAmendment”. Former Illinois representative Joe Walsh says the amendment should be “looked at”.
Ratified in 1967, it allows the vice-president to become “acting president” when “the vice-president and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or such other body as Congress may by law provide” declare a president incapacitated.
The only attribute Vice-President Mike Pence has displayed so far is sycophancy: most recent illustration, overnighting at Trump’s golf resort in Ireland. But with rumors flying that Trump might exchange him for another lapdog, who knows? Maybe Pence will discover some cojones.
