It’s Been Nice Knowing You

Get your news from a source that’s not owned and controlled by oligarchs. Sign up for the free Mother Jones Daily.

I have good news and bad news this morning. The good news is that Donald Trump isn’t the moron he seems to be. It’s just an act, and he’s actually highly intelligent and focused on his job.

The bad news is that he has given the signal for the invasion to begin. Soon we will all be slaves of the reptilian Plasmadorfian Empire.

BEFORE YOU CLICK AWAY...

Trump is clamping down on the media—using lawsuits, lies, intimidation, and a thuggish Federal Communications Commission. Corporate media are caving, but Mother Jones won’t back down. To help us stand strong, a generous board member has chipped in a $50,000 digital matching gift. Help us make the most of it!

Every contribution through September 30 will be matched dollar-for-dollar.

We have nearly 50 years of experience standing up to bullies. Government intimidation, nuisance lawsuits, threats to our nonprofit status—we’ve seen it all. Yet because we’re supported by a community of readers like you, we’re still here and still reporting like hell. Please stand with us. Every dollar you give will go twice as far.
