Hello friends!
Today I am writing to you with so much gratitude. When I first started this newsletter, I couldn’t have imagined what an opportunity I’d have to connect with such a large and amazing community. It’s incredible that today we can celebrate this landmark together: 200,000 subscribers!
The growth of The Good in Us is a testament to the collective power we hold when we come together to the cause of saving our democracy with the knowledge that each and every one of us has a part to play.
In 2016, my life was upended when Donald was elected. It took a while, but I finally realized I had a responsibility to speak truth to power. I continue to take that responsibility very seriously and one of my goals remains making sure every voter knows the Donald I know. It’s personal, it’s relentless, but I embrace the responsibility willingly.
This newsletter was born out of a deep concern for the future of our country, a concern that I know many of you share. As Donald, his enablers, and his followers continue to threaten what matters most to us, we must remember they are not invincible. Indeed, we are the pro-democracy party. We have the numbers, we have the power, and we have the truth on our side. I write to shine a light on the anti-democratic forces Donald and his ilk represent, to hold them up to scrutiny and advocate for them to be held accountable and lose at the polls.
It’s crucial that we continue to highlight the stories often missed or ignored by the corporate media, which seems bent on giving a platform to, and normalizing, the MAGA movement and promoters of the Big Lie like Ronna Romney McDaniel. Her termination shows the strength of our voices.
Every day in 2024 brings new challenges for Democrats, including the threat of RFK Jr buying his way on the ballot in swing states and potentially taking critical votes away from President Biden. Kennedy voters, who are predominantly younger, need to hear the truth where they frequent the most - platforms like YouTube. And we’re coming up with a plan to reach them there.
Because of you, it’s working. This newsletter is breaking through to the media and it is bringing important, often overlooked stories to the forefront for these crucial voters in places like YouTube. And this is just the beginning — we’re getting ready to launch our official YouTube network.
The future holds immense potential for us to connect with a wider audience wherever they are – whether that’s television, YouTube, and especially in swing states.
But I cannot do this alone.
To those of you who are my paid supporting subscribers, I can’t thank you enough for supporting this endeavor financially. You make this work possible. Every upgrade, every share, every discussion sparked by our content is pivotal and allows me to spend more time writing posts and spreading the truth about what we need to do in order to prevail in the 2024 election.
Will you join me in making a difference? If you have the means, consider upgrading now if you haven’t. Not only will you be supporting our mission here and beyond, but you’ll also be helping to keep this newsletter free for students and those on a low or fixed income.
To those who do become supporting subscribers, thank you. It means the world to me.
Sincerely,
– Mary
