Hi there,

This month, Democracy Now! marks 29 years of fearless independent journalism. Presidents have come, gone and come back again, but Democracy Now! remains, playing the same critical role in our democracy: shining a spotlight on corporate and government abuses of power and raising up the voices of scholars, advocates, scientists, activists, artists and ordinary people working for a more peaceful and just world. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today in honor of our 29th anniversary. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Harris Raises Over $200M in a Week, Faces Pressure from 2 Megadonors to Fire FTC Chair Lina Khan

HeadlineJul 29, 2024

In other election news, Kamala Harris has announced her presidential campaign raised more than $200 million over the past week — that’s more than President Biden had raised in the first three months of the year when he was still running for reelection. Meanwhile, some of the Democratic Party’s biggest donors, including LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, are openly pushing Harris to fire Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan, who has led Biden’s antitrust efforts. Hoffman sits on the board of Microsoft, which was sued by the FTC.
