Hi there,

Can you donate $10 per month to support Democracy Now!’s independent journalism all year long? Since our very first broadcast in 1996, we’ve refused to take government or corporate funding, because nothing is more important to us than our editorial independence—especially in this unprecedented election year. When Democracy Now! covers war and peace or the climate crisis, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers or the oil, gas, coal or nuclear companies. Our journalism is powered by YOU. But that means we can’t do our work without your support. Right now, a generous donor will DOUBLE your gift, which means your $10 donation this month will be worth $20 to Democracy Now! Please do your part right now. We’re all in this together. Thank you so much.
-Amy Goodman

Clinton Visits Tahrir Square; Won’t Stay on Past 2012

HeadlineMar 17, 2011

U.S. Secretary of State Clinton arrived in Tunisia after a visit to Egypt, which is holding a national referendum on constitutional changes later this week. On Wednesday, Clinton toured Cairo’s Tahrir Square, the focal point of the uprising against U.S.-backed President Hosni Mubarak. Just hours before, a major youth coalition declined to meet with Clinton in protest of longstanding U.S. support for Mubarak right until the last days of his regime. Clinton, meanwhile, has announced she will not stay on in President Obama’s cabinet in any position if Obama is re-elected next year.
