Too Many Warners…

Virginia Senator John Warner (former husband of Elizabeth Taylor. Also long-time head of Senate Armed Services committee) is not seeking another term. This clears the way for Mark Warner (Virginia’s super popular Democratic ex governor; also former Nextel executive). If Mark Warner does run for the Senate (instead of holding out for VP), he looks pretty likely to win. Unless the GOP finds another Warner to run against him, just to totally confuse voters.

Hey, it’s happened before.

DONALD TRUMP & DEMOCRACY

Mother Jones was founded to do things differently in the aftermath of a political crisis: Watergate. We stand for justice and democracy. We reject false equivalence. We go after, and go deep on, stories others don’t. And we’re a nonprofit newsroom because we knew corporations and billionaires would never fund the journalism we do. Our reporting makes a difference in policies and people’s lives changed.

And we need your support like never before to vigorously fight back against the existential threats American democracy and journalism face. We’re running behind our online fundraising targets and urgently need all hands on deck right now. We can’t afford to come up short—we have no cushion; we leave it all on the field.

Please help with a donation today if you can—even just a few bucks helps. Not ready to donate but interested in our work? Sign up for our Daily newsletter to stay well-informed—and see what makes our people-powered, not profit-driven, journalism special.
