At 1:30 p.m. ET, TPM founder and editor-in-chief Josh Marshall and TPM publisher Joe Ragazzo will be chatting on Substack Live about the state of the news business today.
They’ll talk about how TPM came to be what it is and how we continue to function as a tiny, unique news site that punches above its weight — but also much more, including the scramble among oligarchs to sweep up major media outlets and bend them to Trump’s will.
We’re finishing up the second week of our Annual TPM Membership Drive and want to get to 40% of our goal before the end of the week. We’re currently at just over 30%, so we need about 100 more sign ups. If you’re not currently a member, please join us. This is what keeps TPM thriving: memberships and the subscription fees that come with them. That’s more than 90% of our revenue. Can you help us today? Just click right here.
Kate and Josh discuss the DHS secretary confirmation hearings, a big defection on Iran and the Illinois primaries.
