Happy to be a paid subscriber. Your content has value. Better than a newspaper subscription.

A Substack Collective would be a good investment. Collect the top 30 conservative posters and share them into a weekly post. I would pay for THAT content, and the posters could divvy up the income in some measured fair way.... JUST AN IDEA FOR SOME budding ENTREPRENEUR.

HAVUK's avatar

That is an interesting idea... Sasha could still keep her current subscribers and be a part of the collective.

Very happy to support your work. I have dropped a lot of subscriptions, such as The Free Press, Matt Taibbi, Tucker Carlson (dropped a while ago), etc., but I see your work as essential reading and will continue to subscribe.

Sasha, you are the best. I’ve been a founding member since about the first or second column, 5 years ago when I first found Substack. I now have 130+ subscriptions and a fair amount of turnover, but you are in a category of one. You write from the heart. It’s like your pieces are love letters to a future generation of Americans. You put so much work and effort into your posts that even the ones about brutal events are great listening. Your work is important. You are important. Thank you for all you do.

Yes! These times need to be honestly documented for our grands and beyond.

Sasha - Do you know that powerlineblog, a very influential and informative conservative site for some 30 years, has been linking most of your stories? Your reach is wider than you might think.

Yeah, and PowerLine is chock full of annoying pop ups and only paid subscribers can comment.

The founders were all Dartmouth lawyers, and as far as I can ascertain have had shallow impact on the crappy MN situation. 30 years...you would think they could have done better.

There is a TDS virus in them, honestly.

GOOD TO KNOW!!! THX!

Especially that Scot Johnson. Man there’s not a bigger pearl clutcher than him. He’s like a sort of male Peggy Noonan.

Rick's avatar

Yup. Peggy went off the tails years ago. The Wall Street Journal as well. Someone with big money got in there, I imagine.

Other commenters have no clue. I read Powerline for info, not to comment, so no popups appear to me. One founding member had TDS, but he’s long gone and the others are great! They fight against Deep Blue MN all the time, and were the first to expose Somali fraud years ago, well before Nick Shirley. They tell the true stories about George Floyd, Tim Walz, Ilan Omar’s bigamy and fraud, MN’s Covid overreach - all of it! Go there and try for yourself. As I said, they’ve been linking to Sasha. What does that tell you?

Miredingoop was the blatant rino. It was a happy day when he exited. The others are more guarded. They still want to be invited to the parties.

Sasha, you are an amazingly wonderful person, and I love you in a remote sort of way.

I love that your site is free. I was a free subscriber for quite some time but realized your writing is so insightful and valuable that I subscribed.

If you make the pursuit of truth a revenue stream, you will color your comments to maximize or sustain revenue.

Then, it will no longer be the pursuit of truth; it will be the pursuit of revenue.

It sucks, but that's the truth of it.

Like the NYT, the WSJ, TFP, CNN

Yeah, this is why Elon wanted to move X away from advertising.

When I discovered your Substack, it was just by chance as I browsed my newsfeed. I found myself checking every day to see if you had posted an article. I shared the ones you did post with multiple friends, introducing them to your honest and thoughtful narratives, hoping they would also subscribe. Then I realized if I was so committed to reading your stack, it was definitely worth paying such a small amount for your terrific content. Just seemed the right thing to do for something I got so much from. Proud to be a subscriber even without any “perks”. The reward is your refreshing writing style and content, along with the occasional musical gem at the end of each post. Hoping more folks decide subscribing is the right thing for them ❤️

Frankly I do not appreciate so many people allowed to mooch off your work so to access your platform only to use it to denounce everything you stand for, insult and attack other (paid) readers and as a loudspeaker for the anti-Semite anti-American Socialists, their need for an open border, their support of the Trans World and their approval of the harm they cause children — and yes spreading propaganda and misinformation for the DNC.

It’s not Free Speech when others pay for it.

mk's avatar

I'd rather it be free. Maybe she'll convince one wavering TDS sufferer . Putting things behind a paywall just creates an echo chamber. I just ignore comments like that. They are worse on X than here.

More audio would be sooo helpful.

DavidK's avatar

You have a way of saying things that rings so true and that nobody else can equal. Really appreciate that. And what you’ve given up in doing that, I cannot wait Ben imagine.

It’s weird but I feel like the left dismisses friends and family with as much thought as tossing aside a candy wrapper. The justification: Trump and Republicans are such awful monstrosities, that anyone who can even tolerate them for one second is a monster too.

Yet I have eye witnessed people on the left slashing tires and gouging car doors in LA, screaming at children, right in their faces, in New England (because of a perception that their parents are conservative), and more. But moderates who tolerate Trump are monsters. Oh well.

Again thanks for what you have done and what you continue to do!!

Sasha, you have been a lifeline, and the only subscription I will have (tight budget) but thank you, I eagerly await every post you make!

Tom Daniel's avatar

VERY happy to be a paid subscriber. I found you on RealClearPolitics. I look forward to your work as much, or more, than any others!

I can’t remember how I came across you but you were linked to another conservative podcast I had listened to. I also remember listening to an interview podcast series with JK Rowling. Her abuse early

in her life and her literary background before being ousted from the Woke utopia. That podcast series showed their true colors when they started to try to legitimize the trans movement after the JK segments. You have to be careful as you know Sasha. Who to trust and not. I left X after they started to target me. Those folks are libs even though Elon is not. The bottom line is you’re honest and a gem in my opinion.

HAVUK's avatar

It's your courage I'm drawn to, it's why reading your work is vital to me. Thank you.

Thrilled to subscribe. Great content.
