Emergency: Please Help Cynthia Yockey
Posted on | June 29, 2026 | No Comments

Regular readers know my longtime friend Cynthia Yockey, whom I first met at CPAC 2009. Cynthia was a fresh-minted ex-Democrat at the time, being one of the PUMAs (“Party Unity, My A$$”) women angered by Barack Obama taking the nomination away from Hillary Clinton. Seems like a million years ago, doesn’t it? Anyway, Cynthia blogged for more than a decade at The Conservative Lesbian (the site is currently on hiatus), and has been an outspoken critic of the transgender agenda.

Cynthia is active in the Iowa Republican Party, and helped rally support for Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks in the 2024 election, and has worked most recently as a ghost writer and researcher, assisting with Jack Posobiec’s book Unhumans: The Secret History of Communist Revolutions (and How to Crush Them) among other projects.
All this is preamble to urging readers to hit Cynthia’s tip jar immediately. Due to some health problems, she was unable to work regularly for a while, fell behind on her mortgage and needs to come up with $1,500 by Wednesday to avoid foreclosure. Not to invoke any “greedy banker” stereotypes — Snidely Whiplash twirling his mustache — but this is just one of those damsel-in-distress situations that require emergency intervention. When Cynthia got in touch with me Sunday afternoon, I’d just finished working with my son on our family’s Fourth of July fireworks finale and felt a pang of regret that I’d had no forewarning of Cynthia’s impending crisis. Three days is short notice to come up with $1,500, but I assured her I’d do what I could.
Professor Glenn Reynolds has called attention to Cynthia’s Brain Fog Diagnosis Checklist, an 83-page guide to the problem she was dealing with the past year. Part of the problem is that patients suffering from this issue may not realize it is really a medical symptom (often associated with hypothyroidism), and health professionals might not correctly diagnose the causes. From her own experience, Cynthia was motivated to produce this resource to help others, and if she were to sell just 40 copies of the Brain Fog Diagnosis Checklist, that would be enough to save her from foreclosure. In the meantime, however . . .
HIT CYNTHIA’S FREAKING TIP JAR!
Crowd-funding $1,500 means that if 300 people give $5 each, or if 75 people give $20 each, that will add up to the needed total. We’ve done this kind of thing many times before, and whatever you give, please know that you are thereby answering prayers. Thanks in advance.
