Jen and Norm—You both give me hope. Yes, I’m speaking out and bring people to the Contrarian. I’m with you. I’m so proud of the work you are doing.

Yes, I too am helping to spread the word, especially through a group on FB, FORTIFY: Positive Activism for Safeguarding the Nation. It genuinely feels like we're in this together, although Jen and Norm and others are really in the sights of trump et al, which puts them in harm's way. We have to stand behind them as if we were in harm's way, too.

How can people donate to the contrarian over and above the cost of subscription.

Joan, here's a link to Norm's group, which he often mentions. I recently donated and will do so regularly:

I scrolled and scrolled and never found anywhere where you can donate. Someone needs to revamp this website and put a donate button in a visible spot at the very beginning. Could also not get into any of the menu items. I am doing this on my phone so maybe that is an issue on the menu selections? Frustrating…

Hi Beatrice, I'm not sure if you're looking to donate to The Contrarian (don't think I've seen a donate button there, though money from subscriptions helps) or to Norm's group, but I will link his group again. The donate button is on the far right. Hope this helps.

Cindy I realized in pursuing this again that the donate button does not come up on my iPhone. But I was able to find it on my laptop and do it that way. Thanks again.

Thank you Cindy. I am already a paid member of The Contrarion. I was wanting to donate to Norm’s organization and was not able to find a way to donate on their site. I will go back and try it again per your instructions. Thank you!

You are both role models for how to respond to Trump. When he whines about you, even though he is powerful, you don't quake in your shoes. On the contrary, you treat it seriously because he is powerful, but you maintain your resolve. His threats are a reminder of why your work is so important.

Norm, thank you for being such an effective lawyer that Trump personally called you out. I will appeal to my family members to subscribe.

I love your spirit!

Dear Jen and Norm~

Grateful to you for your unfailing efforts and leadership in proving the truth of Margaret Mead’s famous statement: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.”

I heard a whisper about this vitriol this morning. I’m so glad we are not bending like the idiot senators who voted for the CR today. Let’s fix the Democratic Party and scorch all the fascists with abject failure.

Trumps comments at the Justice Department are proof that the opposition to him is winning.

Please stay safe! And thank you both for all you’re doing for all of our country? PINO needs to learn you can’t fight the might of right. You’ll lose every time.
