Christmas Wish | The Nation

In this time of relentless, often unprecedented cruelty and lawlessness, I am grateful for Nation readers like you.

Many of you took to the streets, organized in your neighborhood and with your union, and went to the ballot box to vote for progressive candidates. You prove that it is possible – to paraphrase the legendary Patti Smith – to redeem the fools who run our government.

And as we approach 2026, I promise that Nation will fight like never before for justice, humanity and dignity in these United States.

While most news organizations are either cutting budgets or cozying up to Trump by bringing in right-wing propagandists, NationThe authors, editors, editors, fact-checkers, and illustrators openly confront the administration's deadly abuses of power, rampant corruption, and the deconstruction of both government and civil society.

We could not do this important work without you.

Until the end of the year, a generous donor transfers all donations to Nationindependent journalism up to $75,000. But there are only a few days left until the end of the year.

Time is running out for your gift to be doubled. Don't wait—donate now to ensure our newsroom is fully funded at $150,000 to start the new year.

Another world is indeed possible. Together we can and will win!

Love and solidarity

John Nichols
