2028 starts today.
November 05, 2026 | Read Online 2028 starts today. Yesterday was a rout. Failed leadership. Squandered opportunities. Too many people entrusted with responsibility who could not find the courage to meet it. But if we come out of this with nothing more than a list of people to blame, we will have wasted even this. Something deeper is happening to our country. And we had better find the courage to face it. We have become careless with an extraordinary inheritance. Careless with our freedom....

November 05, 2026 | Read Online From Catherine Support True the Vote’s work Hi Friend — Keeping up with the news these days means constantly sorting through what’s true, what’s distorted, and what’s been made up entirely ... it’s exhausting, but necessary. This week, we learned that fabricated polls have defined this season's national election coverage — the very numbers relied upon to tell the country who’s winning were bogus.
