Fight disinformation: Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily newsletter and follow the news that matters.


GUEST BLOGGING….Having done my national civic duty last week (was it really only last week?), today I’m scheduled to do my local civic duty. The Superior Court of Orange County has requested the pleasure of my company in their jury room for the day, so that’s where I’ll be. Blogging in my place today will be Jonathan Stein, a reporter and blogger in our Washington bureau who normally writes over at the mother blog.

I’ll be back on Friday. Don’t let Wall Street collapse again while I’m gone.

Fact:

Mother Jones was founded as a nonprofit in 1976 because we knew corporations and billionaires wouldn't fund the type of hard-hitting journalism we set out to do.

Today, reader support makes up about two-thirds of our budget, allows us to dig deep on stories that matter, and lets us keep our reporting free for everyone. If you value what you get from Mother Jones, please join us with a tax-deductible donation today so we can keep on doing the type of journalism 2022 demands.
