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. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Editor’s Note: Since our live broadcast ended, Israel announced two of its soldiers died in the missile attack. A United Nations peacekeeper from Spain was killed in Israel’s shelling of Lebanon]
