Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Bush: We Can Not Waver on Iraq

HeadlineApr 14, 2004

In his first prime-time press conference since before the invasion of Iraq, President Bush vowed Tuesday night not to waver in Iraq and to provide the military with whatever it needed to fight the growing Iraqi resistance. The press conference came midway through a month that has seen the US face a widespread Sunni-Shiite uprising in Iraq and reports that the Bush administration failed to seriously address the issue of terrorism before Sept. 11. When asked by reporters if he had made any errors related to Iraq or the Sept. 11 attacks, Bush said he might of but that he couldn’t think of any them.
