50 Simple Things You Can Do To Fight the Right

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


Okay, it seems a shadowy group of progressive numerologists has decided that the number 50 is endowed with mystical properties that, harnessed effectively, will put the U.S. governance back on a rational footing and possibly levitate the Pentagon. First, we had “50 Ways to Save the Ocean,” now, from Earth Works Press (the folks who brought you “50 Simple Things You Can Do to Save the Earth,”)…”50 Simple Things You Can Do To Fight the Right,” a handbook crammed with useful information about what “YOU can do at home and in your community to defend America!”

What YOU can do is, among other things, “reclaim the Bible,” “take back the language,” “be a media watchdog,” and, yes, “give the Right a wedgie” (disappointingly, they mean “wedge issue”). The books tells you how. Click on the cover image to check it out.

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.
