I’ll Be Liveblogging Tonight’s Non-SOTU

Test ticker

We've never been very good at being conservative: Our fundraising drive ends on Saturday, we have about 400,000 left to reach our goal, and it's going to take a surge in last-minute donations to get there. If you value Mother Jones' reporting and you can right now, please help us close that gap with a donation today. This is an important moment for us and the type of journalism we do, and there's more to say than can fit here in asking you to pitch in with a last-chance gift.

Just about every news outlet in the world has spent the day telling us that President Trump’s address to Congress tonight isn’t a State of the Union address. It’s just an address to Congress. Tradition, you know. It seems like kind of a dumb tradition to me, but whatever. I’ll be liveblogging it anyway. I’ll be starting up around 9 pm Eastern if you want to follow along.
