You’re just enjoying your Sunday evening when BAM: EXTRA! EXTRA! PATRIOTISM DEAD.

Then, just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water:

Journalists live for days like this. I can’t help but wonder how The Newsroom would have covered this monumental night.

They want to control the story. Our readers don’t let them.

Powerful forces are working to control the narrative, rewrite history, and keep you in the dark. That’s why the Mother Jones newsroom is fiercely independent, not backed by billionaires or bending to political whims.

But we can’t do this work without you.

Our nonprofit newsroom is funded by our readers. Each donation helps strengthen our work, so we can continue to investigate and publish, no matter what an authoritarian-minded administration wants the media to say.

Stand with us. Make a gift today.
