The Flyover Investment Round Is Closing

And the final date will be announced shortly.

We want The Flyover readers to hear this directly from us.

Our current investment round is closing this month. The final closing date will be announced in the next few days—and once it’s closed, this opportunity will be gone.

If you’ve ever considered becoming an owner of The Flyover, this is an important moment:

You no longer have months to decide. You have days.

If You’re on the Fence, Consider the Facts

This isn’t an idea-stage media startup. It’s a growing, profitable newsroom—built differently.

Over the past year:

• Reader growth more than doubled 

• Revenue grew 73% year over year

• Gross profit grew 88% year over year

• The Flyover Podcast launched and scaled to nearly 1,000,000 monthly views/listens

• More than 2,500 investors have already joined as owners

That growth didn’t come from clickbait, outrage, or celebrity journalists. It came from something rare in modern media: facts, restraint, and respect for readers.

This Is the Final Push

Before this round closes, we’re making one last invitation to The Flyover readers. Join a movement that is:

• Rejecting clickbait sensationalism

• Walking away from doom-scrolling and outrage cycles

• Saying no to political agendas disguised as news

• Refusing celebrity journalism that puts ego and agendas over truth

The Flyover is proving that a different model works—and that readers, not corporations, can own the newsroom.

A Personal Ask

If you believe America deserves a better way to consume the news…
If you value facts over spin and reporting over opinion…
If you’re ready to support a media company doing it the right way…

This is your opportunity to step forward. Only days remain.

Trump Officials Heading to Ohio Plants

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin, and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will visit the Stellantis facility in Toledo and a Ford facility in Cleveland on Friday.

The officials plan to meet with plant leaders as part of the “Freedom Means Affordable Cars” tour, a campaign highlighting the administration’s efforts to make cars more affordable for American consumers.

Stellantis’ Toledo facility is home to Jeep production. Bantam began building the now-popular utility vehicles at the site in 1941 for the U.S. military.

After stopping in Ohio on Friday, Duffy, Zeldin, and Greer plan to attend the Detroit Auto Show on Saturday, following President Trump’s visit to Detroit earlier in the week.

Ohio ER Wait Times Beat Michigan, Trail Indiana

Ohio ranked 22nd nationally for emergency department wait times in 2024, with a median of 157 minutes, four minutes shorter than the national median, according to a recent Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services study.

Among neighboring states, Ohio had shorter median wait times than Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Michigan, but longer than Kentucky, Indiana, and West Virginia.

Washington, D.C., had the longest median wait time at 301 minutes. The five states with the longest median waits were Maryland, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Delaware, and Connecticut. You can view the complete study here.

DeWine, Tressel Launch Seat Belt Campaign

Gov. Mike DeWine and Lt. Gov. Jim Tressel launched a seat belt awareness campaign to remind Ohioans to buckle up.

In a video, Tressel, a former Ohio State football coach, stands in Ohio Stadium alongside photos placed on seats to represent lives saved by seat belts since 1975. Tressel said the number could fill the 102,780-seat stadium four times.

“Every seat in Ohio Stadium represents a life that matters—someone’s parent, child, teammate, or friend,” Tressel said. “Wearing a seat belt every time you get in the car is one of the most important things you can do. It can make the difference between getting home safely and a loss that changes a family forever.”

State officials said 62% of people killed on Ohio roads from 2021 to 2025—about 2,500 people—were not wearing seat belts.

Can Your 401(k) Survive “The Greater Depression”?

Margin debt has reached a new all-time high. Wealth inequality has returned to extremes that once destabilized the economy. The Shiller P/E ratio (a key measure of stock valuation) peaked near 30 in 1929—today, it hovers around 40.

The 1920s defined an era of excess that led directly to the Great Depression. Halfway through the 2020s, the warning signs are frighteningly similar.

Wise investors are diversifying into hard assets to prepare for history repeating itself. 

Physical Gold is the equalizer. It’s your safest measure against a market that could collapse at any moment.
