This podcast discusses the release of the Doctors Without Borders findings on the Kunduz hospital strike; mounting pressure on the Obama administration to release a closure plan for Guantánamo Bay; and lawmakers honing in on John Kerry for more answers following an annual State Department human trafficking report politicized to preserve the president’s trade agenda.

Trump is silencing political dissent. We appeal for your support.

Progressive nonprofits are the latest target caught in Trump’s crosshairs. With the aim of eliminating political opposition, Trump and his sycophants are working to curb government funding, constrain private foundations, and even cut tax-exempt status from organizations he dislikes.

We’re concerned, because Truthout is not immune to such bad-faith attacks.

We can only resist Trump’s attacks by cultivating a strong base of support. The right-wing mediasphere is funded comfortably by billionaire owners and venture capitalist philanthropists. At Truthout, we have you.

Truthout has launched a fundraiser, and we have only 24 hours left to raise $15,000. Please take a meaningful action in the fight against authoritarianism: make a one-time or monthly donation to Truthout. If you have the means, please dig deep.
