Gifting Bette — Free Membership Lottery!
A generous benefactor has provided an opportunity to win an annual membership!
***Registration link for our upcoming Sunday ‘Speakeasy’ with Martin Sheil can be found here. If you are not yet a member of the Bette community and would like to join us this Sunday, I am running an Independence Special through July 4 for new members. Sign up to receive invites to our ‘Speakeasy’ zoom salons and weekly wellness Happy Hour checkins, as well as access to all archives and podcasts.***
I have excellent news for free subscribers!
A very lovely Bette benefactor just donated half a dozen one-year memberships for those who would like to join our thriving community.
If you are already a free subscriber, and would like to receive a paid membership, just zip an email to bettedangerous@gmail.com, and I will enter you in our gifting lottery.
Please indicate your background and what most interests you about our political challenges in this moment. All new members will be vetted, as investigative reporters like me are continually targeted with online abuse and I want to maintain the integrity and safety of our community. We are a pro-democracy group of caring global citizens, with readership spanning 50 countries and 50 states and growing daily! To think it’s only been half a year and we have hundreds of paid members and nearly 1,600 free subscribers. That’s phenomenal!
I am honored to have earned so many new members — former conservatives, who are politically homeless and know they are welcome here, environmental activists who remind us whey we do this work, older adults who bring their wisdom to our community, concerned citizens from all over the world — let’s keep it going.
If you want to buy membership gifts, please donate to the ko-fi or venmo accounts, and indicate it’s for a gift, or purchase for a friend at this link below.
I know the news cycle feels heavy, but we prepared for this. Are we downhearted? A thousand times no! Are we going on offense as David Pepper taught us? Yes we are!
Thank you all so much, and I look forward to seeing many of you on Sunday when Martin Sheil rocks our world.
🤍🙏🏼

Bette Dangerous is a reader-funded magazine. Thank you to all monthly, annual, and founding members. Thank you as well to all those who support my work with your generous coffee tips and who buy my ebooks. I am offering special discounts on my ebooks here. Some of you prefer making subsidizing donations via venmo, and it’s always greatly appreciated. We have a gifting waitlist again so those who can afford to gift annual memberships can do so by donating to the ko-fi or venmo accounts, and indicate it’s for a gift, and I’ll notify the winners.
Also, a private link to an annual membership discount for older adults, those on fixed incomes or drawing disability, as well as activists and members of the media is available upon request at bettedangerous@gmail.com. It’s a great deal and please don’t be shy about requesting the link. 🥹
Registration for our next Bette Dangerous ‘Speakeasy’ Zoom for paid members on Sunday, July 2, 4 pm PT with Martin Sheil can be found here. Also be on the lookout for an invite to our weekly Bette’s Happy Hour wellness checkin for Tuesday, July 4, which will be at noon PT. Expect fireworks!
