It's Time (The Lever 50% Discount For Breaking Points)

It’s time to build a new media ecosystem. The election proved that billionaire-owned corporate media will not properly cover the graft and malfeasance that lies ahead.

One of Breaking Points’ key partners in this new media landscape is The Lever, the reader-supported investigative news outlet whose reporting we’ve relied on for years. Just this past week, in a widely shared segment, Lever founder David Sirota joined Krystal and Sagaar to dissect Democrats’ crushing loss in the election.

Today, to help bolster essential independent media, we’re offering a major discount on a full Lever membership for Breaking Points supporters: a 50% forever discount off a Lever subscription.

Get 50% Off Forever: https://www.levernews.com/50-off-forever-breaking-points-2024

The Lever has been at the forefront of critical investigative reporting and they’re just getting started. Long before Election Day, they sounded the alarm on matters that corporate media and the pundit class are just now admitting:

The need for Biden to drop out early in the campaign.
The importance of Democrats allowing a primary contest to find the best candidate.
The value of focusing on working-class struggles.
The short-sightedness of Harris campaigning with the Cheneys.
The corrupt financial aims of Trump boosters like Elon Musk.

A subscription to The Lever ensures you get award-winning reporting that will inform your actions as an engaged citizen. You’ll also get access to premium features like exclusive newsletters like “You Love To See It,” special live events, supporter-only e-books like The Citizens’ Guide To Holding The Powerful Accountable, premium podcasts like their chart-topping new series Master Plan, and more.

Most importantly, since The Lever is a reader-supported independent news outlet, your subscription directly funds this essential work, meaning you will help hold the powerful accountable.

Get 50% Off, $5 Per Month: https://www.levernews.com/50-off-forever-breaking-points-2024

We hope you take this offer today and enjoy The Lever as an excellent supplement to the reporting you get through Breaking Points.

We're hopping in the chat right now!

Apologies for the confusion!

See you there in 15 minutes.

And the US just bombed Iran. I am so angry and frustrated. Yet more destabilization in the middle east. I feel like we have just guaranteed that Iran and subsequently the rest of the middle east will now pursue nuclear weapons. Not to mention the dramatic increase in human suffering.

Does it bother you that no one from BP went live when Trump announced the US bombed Iran? Tweets from all four hosts about it, but no comment to premiums.
