FUNDRAISING!….Among other casualties of John McCain’s recent descent into mental breakdown, you can add the fundraising drive we were planning to hold this week. See, the plan was to make up a bingo card thingie with words and phrases you were likely to hear at Friday’s debate — sort of a drinking game for politicals dorks — and invite everyone to go to our fundraising page and download it. Oh, and maybe throw a few bucks our way while you’re there.

So what now? Well, the bingo card is already finished. And we still need money to support our (suprisingly expensive!) commitment to in-depth, original, up-to-the-minute reporting on the campaign. Real journalism ain’t cheap, and we need your support to keep it up.

So click here to help us out and download your bingo card. After all, maybe everything will get resolved at the big 4 pm summit in the White House and St. John will deign to debate the issues Friday night after all. If that happens, we’ve got you covered.

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.
