Readers!

 

My July fund-raising campaign to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary since I began Behind the Black is now over. I want to thank all those who so generously donated or subscribed, especially those who have become regular supporters. I can't do this without your help. I also find it increasingly hard to express how much your support means to me. God bless you all!

 

The donations during this year's campaign were sadly less than previous years, but for this I blame myself. I am tired of begging for money, and so I put up the campaign announcement at the start of the month but had no desire to update it weekly to encourage more donations, as I have done in past years. This lack of begging likely contributed to the drop in donations.

 

No matter. I am here, and here I intend to stay. If you like what I do and have not yet donated or subscribed, please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:

 

1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.

 

2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
 

3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:

 

4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Documents now show that IRS officials in Washington DC and California were also involved in targeting conservative organizations.

Working for the Democratic Party: Documents now show that IRS officials in Washington DC and California were also involved in targeting conservative organizations.

IRS officials at the agency’s Washington headquarters sent queries to conservative groups asking about their donors and other aspects of their operations, while officials in the El Monte and Laguna Niguel offices in California sent similar questionnaires to tea-party-affiliated groups, the documents show.

The IRS tried at first to make it sound as if only low level employees in Ohio were involved. That lie isn’t standing up very long.

Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 

The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

    The more layers of the onion that are peeled, the uglier it gets. Even liberal news outlets are starting to slam this administration. And, for once, I’m not hearing Bush blamed for everything that is going wrong,

    This is what happens when the Democrat lies come to roost. Even Nixon did go this far.

    I’m talking about he constant lies of the past 40 years.

    It took lies to teach the teachers.
    Then those lies were taught to students who intern became the next politicians and teachers. And came up with even more lies.
    Those lies were taught to the next group and so on. Until we come to today.

    A one time action by one person 50 years ago becomes the totality of the enemies activities. All the republicans did it, so obviously its ok for these collage kids who took over to go ahead and feel fine doing it.

    Its the attitude that its ok to do something as long as the other guy did it needs to be corrected.
    The attitude that as long as your intentions were goo and correct then no matter what you do to gain that goal is ok also. This needs to be fixed.

    I have head another similar one directly out of the democrat mouth of small business owners.
    Those bast-rd republican/capitalists/bankers/big business men cheat on their taxes and lie so that what I have to do to make a profit.
    He was cheating on his taxes and cheating his customers. Selling refurbished equipment as new. Paying his employees from two other company checkbooks and records.

    Sorry meant to say Even Nixon didn’t go this far.
