JANUARY 23: Keep the Russian hack of the election on the front pages! Click these links!

If you think this is worthwhile, please kick and rec!


Lots has happened since I last posted 20 articles to click, and I hope everyone has called their senators and told them to say no to DeVos and Pruitt. (If not, do it now! 202-225-3121)

BUT we CAN'T let the story of the Russian hack of our democracy fall off the front pages.

Please click on the links below to keep news organizations reporting on the Russian hack of the US election and their hack of the US intelligence community. The more clicks the articles get, the more ad revenue they get and the more incentive the publishers have to publish more stories on the Russian hack. Of all the REALLY important stories circulating these days, this might be the MOST important because it is such a threat to our system.

We need our media to investigate it and fight it, and by clicking, we can give them a financial incentive to do that.

Below are 20 articles. Please click on each and scroll through. Also, please spend a little time each day on BuzzFeed and MotherJones. They are leading the way in investigating what is going on.

Thank you again to all who have been following this and clicking.

If you are new to this project and would like to click on the past articles, here are where you can find them:

Seems like many on DU want to 'move on'. Yeah just forget about all the travesty that was committed.
Trump is illegitimate and a pile of shit; not my president!

if we allow the hack of our election to become "normal" and we just let our outrage at it fade away, our entire system will collapse and only money and corruption will rule. All other issues will become secondary.

Thank you!

Two generations of women from my family marched together. It was a beautiful day.
