It was double duty for MoJo‘s Washington bureau on Monday as both Kate Sheppard and David Corn joined Keith Olbermann on MSNBC’s Countdown. First, Kate dished on the EPA’s new greenhouse gas regulations and incoming chair of the energy and commerce committee Rep. Fred Upton’s (R-Mich.) plans to block them.

Then David Corn joined Keith to discuss Darrell Issa’s plans to investigate the Obama administration.

“Lying.” “Disgusting.” “Scum.” “Slime.” “Corrupt.” “Enemy of the people.” Donald Trump has always made clear what he thinks of journalists. And it’s plain now that his administration intends to do everything it can to stop journalists from reporting things they don’t like—which is most things that are true.

No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
