The Siren is a creator led media network founded to combat fascism and defend the values of American democracy through the analysis and discussion of current events and calls to action.
Through fearless reporting, bold truth-telling, and unapologetic calls to action, we refuse to sit back while our rights are gutted, our voices are silenced, and our future is auctioned off to the highest bidder.
Instead, we’re calling out the abuse of power and relentless attacks on our democracy wherever they appear. But it’s not enough to just talk about what’s going on. This moment demands going a step further.
The goal of The Siren is not just to analyze the news, but to ignite action.
We turn outrage into direction. We organize calls to stop the passing of dangerous legislation. We spotlight the next generation of Democratic leadership. All while mobilizing around the most pressing issues of our time.
We don’t both-sides tyranny. We expose it and we fight it.

The Coast Guard has been the face of America’s drug war interdictions in the Caribbean for decades and is an honorable institution that reflects the best of national service.
But now, all of that has been thrown into chaos by opaque political decision making by the Trump Administration.
From the flash news that the Coast Guard was about to downgrade Nazi Swastikas from being described as ‘hate’ symbols to just ‘divisive’ ones - a change that was blocked by the Coast Guard’s leader - to murky decision making about American military strikes against alleged drug boats, the future of the Coast Guard’s operations is as uncertain as ever… and unnecessarily so.
Our country needs a safe coast. The politicization of this venerable American institution could not come at a worse time.
Have a listen to this episode of Making Sense of the World, where Joel speaks with Retired Coast Guard Rear Admiral Bill Baumgartner about these pressing issues, and how political decision making is undermining the guard’s morale, operations, and our national security.
All this and more, right here on The Siren Network.
