That's quite an achievement, to be so close behind Joy-Ann Reid, & ahead of Thom Hartmann, who is 1 of the more prominent names & who has been here for a while. I think his problem may be that too many of his columns are so dire, & some are quite long (but very informative), that most people don't want to subject themselves to such depressing news. You are also more responsive to your readers than most, with high ethical standards & a lot of good, diverse content, so I expect you to continue rising in the ranks.

You’re way better than Thom Hartmann … he still believes that the Democratic Party will somehow get it together to seriously oppose the Plutocrat Authoritarians. We know better.

You are one of the few that I subscribe to (paid) and I am so glad that I have. I get information from you that no one else supplies - such as the 15 senators who did not cave, who did not vote to fund the genocide. You cut through the headlines and give us the relevant facts. I much appreciate your honesty and integrity. Thank you Qasim.

The reason is that you are earnest, heartfelt, come with the receipts, address issues as they occur, and allow us to state our thoughts whether you agree with them or not. Sometimes in the comments section you are attacked, and that is to be expected. At times it does upset me. At other times I think about it for awhile. Your subscribers are highly intelligent people. I’m sure they follow many other writers, so for you to achieve this is beyond a milestone. Let that sink in.

Congratulations, I read and follow you from Australia!

I am 82 and live in aged care, but have no extra funds to support you. You are one of the ‘sane’ voices in America today and we need more people like you during these troubling times.

Good luck in everything you do.❤️
