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.

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

Morning Breakers!
Our show will be a little late this morning as we've got some extra guests filling out the show where we go deep on the Gaza Flotilla attacks by Israel and if Superhuman AI will kill us all.
Episode will be out shortly!
See you there.
It’s really disappointing that schizophrenia has been referenced over and over this week, somehow in relation to these shootings. I can’t imagine being a schizophrenic audience member or their family member listening to this. It’s uneducated and unrelated. The vast majority of schizophrenic people seek treatment. They are not shooting up schools en masse. Maybe it’s time to bring a mental health professional onto the show to dispel these myths. Show some empathy towards folks who were born with an illness and are just doing their best. If this continues, I’ll have to stop supporting this show. It’s just mean spirited.
I don't have confidence that the BP team will see this but I hope they do!
I'm a 32 year old IT expert from Boise, Idaho who can help you all to understand stories involving technology much better. It support, cybersecurity, and more!
Also, back in 2009-2013 I used to be on that cesspool 4chan regularly (I still every few months take a look just to see what's happening) and am able to give you a deep understanding of it and answer any questions you have about it without taking up much of your time. I'm deep into video game culture, I've been close to furry cultures, and close to many trans people.
I am happy and eager to share information with you all on any of these topics and believe that giving you all some more insight will improve your reporting on these topics. Do not hesitate to reach out to me. I will make any time needed to help.
