Our country's survival is in the balance. Every patriot reading this already knows it in their gut.
$20 a month is five beers. It's a pack of cigarettes. It's less than a night out you won't even remember. Put here instead, it becomes fuel for a fight that will actually matter to the people who come after us.
We need resources to recruit, to organize, and to reach mission-ready status. That takes money — gear, printing, events, outreach, the unglamorous cost of building something meant to last, not just make noise for a season.
But money was never the real ask. We need patriots — men and women passionate enough, committed enough, to stand shoulder to shoulder with the patriot next to them when it counts. The future our children inherit will be decided by what we do today. Not by what we believe quietly to ourselves. By what we're willing to stand up and do.
We need you more than we need your money. But we need the money too. If you can carry $20 a month, carry it. If you can't, stand with us anyway — free membership is open to every patriot ready to answer the call.
Prefer to support the mission with a one-time gift instead of monthly dues? You'll get that option too on the next page — choose whatever amount you'd like to give.
Builder note — read before launch: registrations here are captured by Netlify Forms (built into the hosting you're already using — no new account needed) and viewable in your Netlify dashboard under the "Forms" tab. Once submitted, members land on a thank-you page where they pick their exact tier/amount and pay via a Stripe Payment Link. See SIMPLE_SETUP_GUIDE.md for what's left to do. I'd also flag: since this collects personal information for a paid membership, a short privacy note on what member data is used for and who can see it is worth adding before you launch.
