With the holidays upon, we wanted to send out a special thank you our subscribers and supporters. It’s been almost a year since we launched and in that time, we’ve broken some pretty big stories.
We revealed, for example, how Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui’s political influence network was recruiting prominent right-wingers to promote his ventures and launder his image. We tracked the funding of the Brownstone Institute, which has been working to undermine public health efforts to combat the coronavirus. We even obtained leaked emails from the dark money group exposing its founder’s support for child labor and youth cigarette smoking.
Recently, we even partnered with Rolling Stone on an investigation into major donor-advised funds like Fidelity and Schwab Charitable, and how they have been used as pass through funding vehicles for anti-vaccine groups, including Robert Kennedy Jr.’s Children’s Health Defense.
This essential work takes time and we are a tiny news operation. But we appreciate your patience and support as we take on stories nobody else is covering.
Have a wonderful holiday season, and we’ll see you soon!
