1. Life after The View isn’t simple for Barbara Walters… and it turns out she can’t always do what she wants to do. In fact, ABC officials are keeping a tight reign on her since her retirement from the show. Why read it: Are the powers of ABC right to keep Babs off TV for now? See the item in NYP‘s Page Six here.

2. What do Chuck Todd and Sen. Ted Cruz have in common? In case you missed this one late last week, it’s a must read on Washington insiders who really, really, really want to be thought of as outsiders. Why read it: A fascinating, unusual look at how people think in Washington. There’s this line: “It is not uncommon for people to compromise away their histories, to cease being regular people out of necessity, only to forget how to be regular.” See the column in The Week by Matt Lewis here.

3. F–k the White House, reporters and the regular population. National Journal’s serial tweeter Ron Fournier wants you to focus on the struggles of the latest White House fence jumper. He’s right — to a point — in his sympathies. But society must protect America’s commander-in-chief, those around him and the public as well as those with mental challenges. Why read it: Because it’s nice to read Fournier outside of the imbecilic confines of Twitter for a change. See here. Of course, now we know that the fence jumper had more than 800 rounds of ammo and a machete in his car. It’s really wonderful to sit around and feel compassion. But pardon me while I tell Fournier to stop with his preachiness on how we should all be feeling about this.

4. Politicians aren’t the only ones who can act like assholes. Movie stars can too and Perez Hilton has the exact phrases they’ve used to spell out how important they are. Why read it: Don’t you want to know who said, “I am God’s vessel”and “Do you know who the fuck I am?” See the feature here.

5. Nicolle Wallace wanted to be a weather woman? Just think…you can see this and other mind-numbing details about the new co-host of ABC’s The View. Why read it: Who doesn’t want to know a string of details about the woman who will (God willing) one day have an on-air brawl with bigmouth Rosie O’Donnell? See the Politico feature by Jonathan Topaz here.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
