Why We Fight

An important message — and exclusive offer — from Bully Pulpit.

Dear friend of Bully Pulpit,

As a BP subscriber, you have likely read some or all of our maddening series The Big Truth, dissecting and debunking the nine most persistent and destructive Republican lies.

You may have noticed two things about the essays: They were exhaustively documented, and they were very, very impolite. Rage and contempt will do that to a fellow.

Now the angry depantsing is published as a bound book — or 20,000-word tract, really — delivered free to new paid subscribers and personally inscribed by the author (me).

And so, righteously, together we can seethe. Can and must. Distilling the grotesque politics of rightwing America to their poisonous essence, The Big Truth is an urgent exercise in dis-disinformation at a moment that finds toxic populism threatening our democracy.

You will not only have a signed, paper copy, but support the work of Bully Pulpit. Our needs are modest; our voice is loud. Please help us to fight the fight against complacency and outright evil. And please, please alert your world to our stubborn, irate existence. Facebook. Insta. Twitter. Mastodon. Threads. Office bulletin board. It matters.

Gift subscriptions? Yes! Do that, too. After you subscribe, please send an email with your postal address to booksmartstudios@gmail.com. Then we’ll have a place to send both the book and the signed bookplate.

With respect and gratitude,

Bob
