The extraordinary Supreme Court decisions over the last week are the fruit of encouraging and empowering grassroots voters over the last decade to stay in the fight. For the last 25 years, The Patriot Post has accomplished that mission more effectively than any other organization on the Web!

It is humbling to ask fellow Patriots for your help.

Given the choice between asking for your investment in our team and mission, and the prospect of surrendering ground in our defense of Liberty, I will keep asking because we must meet and defeat the Left’s relentless assault on Freedom.

Our staff works long hours for modest compensation, our facilities are simple, and our fixed operating expenses are as tight as possible. But creating and broadcasting The Patriot Post for millions of readers each year is expensive: It requires a first-rate team, constant website and email improvements, sophisticated hardware, custom software, installations, and offices. We also have substantial legal, accounting, and insurance costs.

Unlike too many other conservative publications and organizations, we don’t clutter our publication with advertising so that our content is not subject to the hidden commercial influence that shapes editorial positions.

Our budget is lean and mean, and if not for the addition of many volunteer editors and staff, our revenue requirement would be multiples of what it is today. Our editor and staff salaries are far below what all those Beltway “journalists” are paid.

Because our budget is a tiny fraction of other influential conservative organizations, your investment in The Patriot Post provides a big return.

Monday, July 4th, is the deadline to meet our budget goal. Normally the majority of campaign funding comes in during these final days. Please support The Patriot Fund today.

In the words of the Gipper when he first cast his vote as a Republican, “I can tell you it only hurts for a minute, and then it feels just great.” The same is true for casting your vote of financial support for The Patriot Post’s mission and operations budget.

In fact, I hope that momentary hurt is overwhelmed by the sense of pride you can take ensuring the future of Liberty!

As always, I thank you for the honor and privilege of serving you as editor and publisher of The Patriot Post. We are humbled to count you among our ranks.
