I watched the first 2 minutes and paused the video and joined, You are 100% correct.. I never could afford to do this, economically I probably shouldn’t, My wife and I struggle at times but I Have been watching for years. I’m sorry I couldn’t help in the past. Before I lose my shit and go all out Samuel Adams on the Nations tyrannical occupying force, People should be reached to understand the boiling point and exactly why Free men like me and you have had enough…

I think you’ll find that it’s money well-spent. Thanks for joining and welcome!
Welcome to the ever growing family. I appreciate your sacrifice and pray it does not hurt too much. Watched free for 2 years, member 1 1/2.
welcome Brother. Like Bill said, even if you can’t afford the monthly deal just throw a few dollars when you can. I’ve been watching these guys forever but couldn’t afford to join until maybe the last year and a half. Just do what you can. We all understand.
This is news to me. I joined a while back to chat about this stuff and because the content is entertaining and insightful. I’ve never considered it money spent to fight the Dems. For that, I sent two grand to Trump’s reelection.
And on the Members signup page, there’s nothing about bringing the fight in their pitch:
But if I should be paying to advance the fight, then being a skeptical patron I have to ask: what’s the fight Whittle is bringing, exactly? As far as I can tell, he, like most conservative talking heads, does little original research and his opinions and analysis are almost exclusively preaching to the choir.
If I ought to be spending money to fight Democrats, then there are groups that clearly do this. Project Veritas verifiably does real investigative journalism. PragerU is getting conservative ideas out to young people. Heritage does original research, e.g. maintaining a database of voter fraud.
I could go on, but not for long because those groups are also starved for cash. This site is more fun, but Whittle is making me think maybe I should forgo the fun and direct that money to organizations that have a more immediate impact.
I understand your concern. I also understand Bill’s anger. I love watching these guys because they are fun and do manage a light-hearted approach to most modern day issues. I also get where Bill is coming from in that I too tire of playing the nice guy and watching the other side lie, cheat and steal. Then get away with it. I would say Bill is wanting more funds to increase productivity, both in volume and quality. Perhaps more personalities could be added(I would love to see Alfonso Rachel). I believe as far as “the fight” is concerned he is more speaking towards countering the MSM and big tech with their usual Conservative based opinion and analysis. Bill has said in the recent past that even with the slight uptick in members in the last few months that they are still in the red. Scott has to work another full time job. Steve is also paid by PJ media. In other words we are barely scraping by.
Just my $.02, spend it how you like.
I suppose we can look at this from a slightly different perspective. I pay membership dues because I find the gentlefolk on this site to be a reasonable escape from the insanity of the political stupid surrounding me where I live. However, it is not all escape. Often, I am introduced to thoughts and perspectives that I then take away to conversations and interactions of my daily life. All of us need that confidence building information so we can confront the idiocy of the Left everyday. That is a bargain at $10 each month.
I think of it this way… Even if I viewed this site as having more of an entertainment bent, I am watching. That alone should result in some compensation. What I used to spend alone going to the movies, (back when we were allowed out for such things), far exceeded what I spend here per month. As these guys put out a ton of videos every month – which is a costly endeavor – if we want to watch, we should pony up something even if it’s a paltry donation here and there. Just my 2 cents. You do what’s right for you.
Mr. Borkenhagen, I did the same thing this morning!! I’ve been watching as many of these videos as I could get my hands on for a while and haven’t been able to afford an extra expense. This expense is vital and I’d support you to go all Samuel Adams!!!!!
I did the same. These days, I rarely feel shame about things I do or don’t do. This time, I actually did. Bill was right. It was immoral to sit there and take while complaining about takers.
Anyway, I think of all the people I listen to, this team can probably make some headway. Maybe. I don’t know anymore. I’ve had enough, but I gotta admit the fight’s gone out of me for the moment. I know that’s what they want. I just feel so…I feel the way Julius Caesar must have felt that day in the Senate when he was stabbed in the back.
Ms. Fredericks, I feel THE EXACT SAME WAY! I was so depressed all day yesterday and without any fight left. I’m watching our guys and got my mojo back this morning.
