How have authoritarians been stopped before? By basic acts of civic participation, undertaken by millions. That's part of what I unpack in my pre-election column, and I hope you'll give it a read because we all need to be prepared for what's ahead. And if you agree that Mother Jones' reporting can help guide us through this historic moment, please consider supporting our nonprofit journalism during our fall fundraising drive: We need to raise $350,000 by October 31.

House Speaker Paul Ryan said on Thursday that he is “not ready” to endorse Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president.
“I’m just not ready to do that at this point,” Ryan told CNN‘s Jake Tapper.
“I think what a lot of Republicans want to see is that we have a standard bearer that bears our standards,” he added.
In December, Ryan condemned Trump’s inflammatory plan to ban all Muslims from entering the country.
