BREAKING: Good journalism costs money.
And we need a lot of both right now. We’re short of our August goal of $163,000 in online donations, and it’s not going to get any easier next month when election noise and news will be even louder. You know what’s at stake. And you know Mother Jones is up for it. Will you pitch in now so we can do our best work?

We need to raise $163,000 before the month ends and the election noise and news get louder. You know what’s at stake. And you know Mother Jones is up for it. Please help if you can.

“Rainbow Runners”

Cadets and staff assigned to Cadet Field Training finished their summer detail with a run-back from Camp Buckner to the steps of Washington Hall, July 22, West Point N.Y. After the runners came through Washington Gate they were cooled down by the West Point Fire Department. Lt. Gen. David H. Huntoon Jr. ran with the group and spoke to the CFT detail at the completion of the run. (Photo by Tommy Gilligan/West Point Public Affairs)
