On Sunday, CNN said:

As CNN beats the drums for war, it made up facts.

First, there were no Venezuela elections in January. Second, in the last election, Guaido didn't run. Third, the opposition boycotted the last election. No wonder CNN tried to stuff that story down the memory hole by pulling the article on Monday morning.

That's why you need Antiwar.com. We retrieved the story from the memory hole and broadcasted it. That's what we do. We can't say that we keep them honest. They are dishonest, probably beyond redemption.

But we tell the truth. And that's what our readers need, especially now. You need us and we need your support.

Here's the good news. A few angel donors have chipped in to double the impact of your contribution. From now on, every donation we get will be doubled, up to the $30,000 that the angel donors have pledged.
