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


Happy birthday to me! I’m 58 today. I plan to celebrate by liveblogging tonight’s debate, which begins at 9 pm Eastern. My prediction: Donald Trump will show up to the debate bald as an egg. Like Lex Luthor before him, he will then embark on a life of crime and revenge aimed at Hillary Clinton, who he blames for destroying his hair because she was jealous of his genius.

Well, why not? It makes as much sense as anything else he’s done.

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.
