I never expected to write a statement like this.
When @LukeWinegarden and I took leave of our jobs to pursue the story nobody else would we knew the risks of busting. We knew the risks of being busted. We also accepted the risk of death as we embarked for our adventure in Arizona.
We survived Arizona. We found truth. We also found roles.
This war is far from over. Victory is not going to be handed over to patriots on a silver platter with a giant Q balloon tied to it. There is much work to do and networks of people continue to war while others suppress information and insist everybody sit back and trust the plan.
My truthing efforts in Denver and against Mockingbird media have put me in a position where I have to stay in the wind in order to continue to contribute. These networks of people have become family to me and I will continue to war with them for our country and for my grandchildren's future no matter the personal costs. I will do it with just the stone in my hand if it comes to that.
Truth or Bust has much more work to do. The idea that we could suss out the @AustinSteinbart story and return to our daily lives proved folly. We will do this work with the stones in our hands if need be but can be much more effective with help.
It is amazing how life can change and the kindness of an overnight crash on a couch and a hot shower can become paramount to a day.
Truth or Bust is a growing alliance of regular guy and girl truthers that have decided the time is now to make a stand. We have forgone our professional and personal standing to fight for our country and the truth we believe most Americans are truly ready to demand.
Transparency and disclosure.
We rise or We die.
Some of us are on the road without permanent home. Some of us are under mortal threat that prevents us from taking advantage of family hospitality. Some of us are targeted by people that want to see us dead.
With the conditions of our work we have come to a point where self funding alone is becoming problematic. Because of this we have decided as a team to accept donations to help us continue our work and to help keep some of us alive.
We are not seeking to make truthing a profession. We have seen the effects this has had on others and how it has colored their motivations. We are looking to continue establishing safety in numbers for truthers as well as bring the stories forth from this ongoing war that so many are still choosing to ignore.
From the beginning Truth or Bust has been an open and transparent operation. We will keep any supporters informed of our activities on the Hive.blog. This blockchain platform not only helps keep our message alive it helps keep us alive.
We will continue to update here on all of our teams activities so that sponsors and donors can know that their generosity is going straight to the fight for truth in America.
After cleaning out my savings and 12000 miles of automobile travel since Election Day, I am humbly open to any form of contribution from those moved by our work.
As time progresses HIVE is going to be a transparent open accounting of our truth in action.
UPDATED
Truth or Bust has by mutual decision separated from Steinbart Media Group.
