Calling all FReepers: We need your help to keep the lights on. Please donate today if you can.
FR is funded solely by contributions made by the liberty loving patriots who love and use it.
We are beholden to no political party.
No advertisers, no outsiders, no sugar daddies, no corporate string pullers.
Definitely no government subsidies or tax breaks. No 501c or other IRS non-profit status.
This means no commercial ads. No annoying pop-ups. No ad tracking. No mail campaigns. No spam. No third-parties -- not even the IRS -- trying to control what we do or say.
We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the support of God, family, country, liberty!!
But we cannot exist without you.
Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20, $100 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.
Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the number one pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense, pro-America conservative forum on the Net!!
And we're going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists and progressives who have infested our government and public institutions and who are dead set on destroying the final remnants of our cherished constitution and our precious God-given liberty!!

Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every new monthly signed up. And we have signed up 17 new monthly donors so far this quarter!!
Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tc's growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster. And we have received 136 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter!!
Thank you all very much!!
God bless.

I just tried to donate via visa card and your response was that the card was rejected. The cc company says the card is valid and no record of card rejection exists.
Here’s my paltry sum. It’s ridiculous how broke I am. But this is worth it.
FR is a vital source of information, perspective, and community for the tens of thousands who participate. There have been times during the past 20+ years when FR has been my only meaningful contact with the world. It took most of those years, however, for me to accept personal responsibility for FR.
For the past several years I have pledged and paid $100. a month. This is not nearly enough to cover the benefits I have received. It does, however, represent a substantial portion of my retirement income. My donation is a sacrifice I willingly and happily make to allow Jim to keep this forum on line.
I strongly encourage you, dear lurker, to do the same. Make a monthly donation to keep FR alive and moving forward. There is no more important time than this. Our freedom hangs in the balance.
Card rejected, data good, it’s broken again. Will try again in a couple of days.
Thank you very much, hoosiermama!! Go, M & M!!
I’ve been paying for nearly 20 years and just got a notice from Paypal that FR rejected/cancelled my monthy donation.
Thank you very much, MosesKnows and American in Israel!!
I’m sorry, we sometimes receive an error code back from the cc processing service when they decline a transaction, but this time we did not. It just says ‘error’ on these two transactions. Others are going through fine.
Some of the things it checks is valid cc number, exp date matches, street address and zip code match, telephone number included.
Could also be a temporary failure to make connection with the cc service or a timeout error.
Very sorry about the error, please try again later.
You bet I will. You have been my most visited site for 20 years..m
Thank you very much, Allen In Texas Hill Country!!
I received a similar message from PayPal regarding your monthly:
“Automatic payments from [name redacted] have failed 1 times. As a result, we will not try to process these payments again.”
I’ve received several of these messages from PayPal recently where they’ve cancelled monthlies after only 1 failure. This must be a change in their policy. They usually try again in 5 days and cancel only after several failed attempts.
Sorry.
Thank you very much, real saxophonist!! Greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much, Louis Foxwell!! Greatly appreciated. Go, FReepers!!
I see these other problems. I did mine through PayPal and it went through just fine. Don’t know what’s going on with the others.
Thank you very much, real saxophonist!! Yes, we’ve had several come through just fine this morning from PayPal and CC:
Woo hoo!!
And we have incoming:
$10.00 from Never Never Land
$10.00 from California
$100.00 from Texas
$10.00 from Colorado
$100.00 from Colorado
Thank you all very much!!
FReepers are the absolute greatest!!
God bless.
