Hello Bette members!

Thank you to all new and renewing subscribers! We had a fantastic Festivus event on Tuesday — grievances aired, as we unburdened our souls.

Just a reminder for paying members to sign up for our next two Speakeasy series with Craig Unger — part two is coming up this Sunday.

Last Sunday, we discussed his first book on Trump-Russia — House of Trump/House of Putin. Check out the next two events:

Calendaring Bette

  • Sunday, December 21: Bette’s Speakeasy Series with Craig Unger, Part 2 — American Kompromat

    • 11 am Pacific, 2 pm Eastern

  • Sunday, December 28: Bette’s Speakeasy Series with Craig Unger, Part 3 — A Q&A session

    • 11 am Pacific, 2 pm Eastern

Registration for all events can be found by scrolling all the way to the end of this post.

We’ll likely meet for one more Happy Hour before Christmas on Tuesday, and I’ll send out an invite when we confirm. Also, retired IRS criminal investigator Martin Sheil will be offering our community a multi-part deep dive series on money laundering, as it relates to Trump-Russia in January! So stay tuned!


Those on a tight budget, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at bettedangerous/gmail as I offer a discount for fixed income members and those dedicated to activism.

Also, sincere gratitude to those of you who offered additional support in our membership + donation drive. You keep this project going.
