It started as a blog. The blog became a podcast. The podcast became a YouTube show.
Exploding with 1000% growth in the past year, and with new Dissidents signing up every day, we've been truly blessed with the greatest audience of inmates, layabouts, hopheads, and flight risks on the interwebs.
It's because of you that we were able to produce our first documentary, about the fascinating life and strange times of activist and now Congressional candidate, Jose Vega, and follow it up with our second doc covering the New Hampshire primaries (really pissing off Dean Phillips, Maryanne Williamson and John Heilemann in the process). And it was also because of you that we were able to join Stella Assange, Jeremy Corbyn, Richard Medhurst, and thousands of others in London this past February, to cover the Julian Assange appeal and raise awareness of his fight.
For the next phase, this is what we have planned:
-Coverage of the DNC convention in Chicago this August, in conjunction with our friends Nick Cruse from the Revolutionary Blackout Network, and Kit Cabello of Hard Lens Media. We've planned it out so that no more than two of us can get arrested at any one time, in order to ensure an uninterrupted experience for our audiences.
-On the ground reporting in Dearborn, Michigan in late October, gauging the contours of the 2024 election in the Muslim community on the eve of the vote, and the staying power of the commitment to stay "uncommitted."
-Live shows, beginning this June, with Russ, Keaton, and special guests Tusker and Jose Vega, along with some surprise interviews and maybe even a song or two. We'd like to develop the live shows into a regular thing, along with a possible monthly politically themed cabaret. 'Cuz a revolution without dancing . . .
We know you've been hurt before by Turks bearing promises of investigative journalism, and others with half-baked van schemes that never materialized, even after your money went into their bank accounts. But we did exactly what we said we'd do with your money the first time, and that's exactly what we're going to do again. So, if the listed projects sound like something you want to do your part to help make happen, your contribution, whether it's a buck or gazillion is much appreciated.
Thanks for your support!
I am looking forward to all of your special projects. You guys are the best!
Keep up the good work guys

Truth, without it we are forever in Darkness.

Thank you for creating so much high-quality content. I love the stories you select, your humor, your analysis, and your integrity. Looking forward to seeing your reporting in the coming year.
I live in the Seattle area guys! Russ, reach out while you're in town if you'd like a local supporter to show you good places to eat and hang out! Thanks for everything you do and for helping to keep me sane in a world full of zombies. I'm looking forward to you kicking even more in 2025! Sunny D(iaz), 206-372-1717
