Own The Flyover

Independent. Honest. Reader-Owned. 

For two years, The Flyover has grown because readers like you have done more than just open our emails—you’ve believed in what we’re building. Now we’re asking our community to help us take the next step: to make The Flyover truly reader-owned, built and sustained by the very people who read it.

We’ve launched a 12-day sprint to reach 2,000 Flyover investors—and as of this morning, we’re just 347 away from that milestone. Each new investor represents more than a number—it’s a Flyover reader stepping forward to say, “Independent, trustworthy news matters—and I want to be part of it.”


3 Reasons to Invest

1. Keep The Flyover reader owned.
From day one, our goal has been simple: the people who read The Flyover should also have the opportunity to own it. This keeps us accountable only to you—not to advertisers, political donors, or outside corporations. Together, we’re proving there’s a different way to build media in America.

2. Smaller investment, bigger community.
We’ve lowered the minimum investment to just $500, making it even easier for more readers to join as co-owners. Whether you invest a little or a lot, you’re helping strengthen a growing network of The Flyover readers who believe in balanced, fact-based reporting.

3. Protecting honest, fact-driven journalism.
Every investment helps keep The Flyover independent and focused on what matters most: clear, fair, and factual storytelling that earns your trust every morning. In a time when so many media outlets are chasing clicks, we’re chasing credibility.


Why It Matters

When we launched The Flyover, we knew people were hungry for something different. What we didn’t know was how deeply our readers—you—would stand with us.

Every new investor isn’t just adding to our numbers—they’re helping shape the future of honest journalism. They’re helping ensure The Flyover can grow into more states, reach more readers, and continue telling the stories that matter most to common-sense Americans.

We’re now 347 investors away from reaching 2,000 reader-owners—a milestone that would send a powerful message: that readers, not corporations, can build something lasting, credible, and worthy of trust.

If you believe in what we’re doing—if The Flyover has become part of your morning routine, your sense of connection, or your hope that real news can make a comeback—will you help us reach 2,000 investors?

Let’s prove, together, that the future of media belongs to the people who read it.

Scottsdale’s second-most-wanted fugitive was arrested in France after evading U.S. authorities for more than a decade.

Michael Wiseman, 50, fled while on probation following his conviction for crimes against a minor, living in Vietnam, Poland, and France under the alias Robert Danilewski.

Authorities tracked him down after obtaining a search warrant to access his email account, where they discovered evidence of more alleged crimes against a minor in France.

He faces charges in France and awaits extradition to the U.S.

Article Icon 1Uncounted Ballots Discovered

Maricopa County officials found 2,288 uncounted ballots awaiting extra signature checks three days after the Nov. 4 election.

The ballots were found in two sealed boxes. Poll workers mistakenly put the boxes in a drop box instead of delivering them to the vote tabulation center, local election officials said.

The chain of custody was intact, and the ballots will be included in the final election results, the officials said.

Article Icon 1Ex-ASU Player Named in Gambling Probe

Former Arizona State guard B.J. Freeman was among six former men’s college basketball players banned by the NCAA for alleged gambling violations in unrelated cases.

Freeman allegedly shared inside information with a friend who bet on games, NCAA officials said. Freeman was not immediately available for comment.

The five others were players at the University of New Orleans and Mississippi Valley State and allegedly conspired to lose games.

The allegations involve games from last season. Investigators said they found texts and other evidence, including instructions to teammates and communications with known gamblers.

The NCAA’s action is part of a broader national crackdown on sports gambling, and follows a recent NBA bust involving player Terry Rozier and coach Chauncey Billups.

JP Morgan’s New $1.5 Trillion Bet

JP Morgan didn’t become the world’s biggest bank by investing in the wrong places. That’s why their recent $1.5 trillion critical minerals commitment turned heads.

Critical minerals (e.g. lithium) are essential to everything from batteries to the energy transition. Demand is massive and growing. Especially now that producing these minerals has become a matter of national security.

Take lithium. By 2040, lithium demand will be 18X the amount currently produced. No wonder giants like JP Morgan are jumping in.

It’s also why major players like General Motors and POSCO invested in EnergyX. Their patented technology can produce up to 3X more lithium than traditional methods. Now, they’re preparing for commercial production on a potential $1.1B annual revenue project in Chile, at projected market prices.

America’s Lithium Boom is Officially Underway

The federal government just made one of the biggest private-sector investments of this administration. Where? Lithium.

It’s not a shock. Current production needs to increase 18X by 2040 to meet projected demand, and China controls 80%+ of the global supply. This combination is creating a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. No wonder 35,000+ people have already invested in EnergyX.

Their patented tech can recover 300% more lithium than traditional methods. Now, after a recent acquisition, they hold nearly 50,000 acres of high-grade lithium resources in the Smackover Region, right next to energy giants like Exxon.

With backing from the DoE, General Motors, and POSCO, they’re currently preparing for drilling to unlock America’s next major lithium supply.

Get a piece of the lithium boom as an early-stage EnergyX investor today.
