About On Offense
On Offense is a newsletter where Kris Goldsmith shares investigative insights and strategies to help Americans fight authoritarianism and extremism. Whether it’s empowering individuals with strategies to counter extremism within institutions or sharing personal reflections, this is a space for being proactive against those who seek to harm vulnerable communities.
Thousands of veterans, activists, and community leaders across the country are fighting back against authoritarianism and extremism. Together, we're building a movement that’s on offense—not waiting for the next crisis, but taking action now to protect democracy for future generations.
