Patriot Post Mid-Year Report

Fellow Patriot, As the best digest of news, policy and opinion on the Internet, over the years we have periodically modified our email and online content formats to better serve grassroots Patriots across the nation. This has been a year of big improvements for The Patriot Post. The most notable change is that we now publish our highly acclaimed Digest daily rather than weekly in order to provide grassroots leaders across the nation with more timely information for their respective constituencies. That change necessitated a completely revised website which came with a greatly improved mobile version. There were other notable benchmarks in the first six months of 2014. We have now distributed more than a million of our outstanding Essential Liberty pocket guides. We are fast approaching a half million readers on Facebook, and many more on our other social media outlets. We just published "I'm Your Flag," an outstanding book by best-selling children's author Julia Cook -- commissioned as part of our Essential Liberty Project educational initiative. And we have provided more than 1.3 million Shields of Strength to our military Patriots and their family support groups. Since we launched our publication in 1996, we have tirelessly defended Essential Liberty with a very limited budget and an editorial and technical staff who are overworked and underpaid. However, our team is mission driven, and you will find no more dedicated group of Patriots anywhere. Though we have substantially increased our mission and operations over the last three years, we have not increased our budget. The Patriot Post remains the most effective and cost-efficient method to promote the timeless message of Liberty to millions of Americans across our great nation, and to keep the flame of Liberty burning bright! Thank you for supporting our 2014 Independence Day Campaign. Though we were short of our goal by approximately 10%, we are undeterred. Remember, you are our best promoters, so please help us grow the ranks of Patriots by checking out a few quick ways you can help spread the brushfires of Freedom. On behalf of your Patriot Post Team and our National Advisory Committee, thank you for standing on so many fronts in defense of Liberty! With gratitude and humility, Mark Alexander Publisher, The Patriot Post Christy Chesterton Director of Advancement, The Patriot Post "Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death." --Thomas Paine in The American Crisis, 1776 You have received this email because you are subscribed to The Patriot Post.
