Hi there,

The media can be the greatest force for peace on Earth. Instead, all too often, it’s wielded as a weapon of war. That's why we have to take the media back. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority – those calling for peace in a time of war, demanding action on the climate catastrophe and advocating for racial and economic justice. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

A Senate committee investigating the campaign finance scandals of last year’s election campaign heard from form its first witness yesterday.

Former Democratic Party finance director Richard Sullivan flatly denied that coffees at the White House and stays in the Lincoln bedroom were fund-raising events. Meanwhile, chances dimmed yesterday that the Governmental Affairs Committee will hear testimony from John Huang, the former Democratic Party fund-raiser at the heart of the controversy. Attorney General Janet Reno is opposing Huang’s request that he be granted immunity in exchange for his testimony.

Taped excerpts from the hearings:
• Richard Sullivan, the former Democratic Party finance director.
• Senator Pete Domenici, a New Mexico Republican.
• Senator Richard Durbin, a Democrat from Illinois.
• Senator Arlen Specter, a Republican from Pennsylvania.
• Senator John Glenn, a Democrat from Ohio.
