NEW: Meet the private-equity firm -- and its billionaire immigrant CEO -- making millions off some of ICE's cruelest deportation flights. After a five-month investigation, my story for @motherjones.com: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

At Mother Jones, we see it time and time again: a single investigation can ripple across the world. It can expose corruption, influence policy, and inspire action. As 2025 comes to a close, let’s revisit some of our most impactful reporting of the year 🧵

Thankfully @inaeoh.bsky.social read Cheryl Hines' new memoir (so you don't have to) and this exploration of RFK Jr's supposed sex appeal is worth your time: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Scott Weiner has forced California to build a lot more homes. Now he's running for Nancy Pelosi's seat. Can his "getting shit done" ethos work in a broken Congress? www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

In 2021, @nlanard.bsky.social came back from a hunger strike of taxi drivers and told me that a politician who had just turned 30 might be the future of politics in NYC. Here's a look back at a pivotal moment in Mamdani's rise www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Zohran hitting up at least two gay clubs (Papi Juice, Mood Ring) and a Knicks game during this final campaign stretch:

Giant copy of the Constitution being carried down Pennsylvania Avenue.

It's the last day of our September fundraiser! Please consider supporting our non-profit newsroom as we double down on fearless reporting—just as corporate media caves to Donald Trump. Your donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar. Thank you so much!

These are terrifying times. Corporate media is caving utterly. Support non-profit media, public media, local media, and the last few old MSM companies with good owners. We tick at least two of those boxes and so if you value our reporting, you can give here secure.motherjones.com/flex/mj/key/...

important note from @transjournalists.org on "transgender ideology": www.transjournalists.org/tja-urges-ca...

Donald Trump has a history of making national tragedies worse. So here's a quick side by side of how one president responds to a national crisis versus how another does.

There is no reason to post or RT the video of Charlie Kirk being shot. None.

It is always a good time to check your Bluesky settings for content and media and make sure videos and GIFs do not autoplay.

If you wanna know why millennials are so fcked up, it's because this commercial would pop up outta nowhere between after school cartoons and evening sitcoms:

There's nothing like a good, old fashioned newspaper editor. Someone who gets your off your high horse and say write what you mean.

Writer friends! We're looking for freelance pitches for our Mixed Media section of @motherjones.com. Think arts criticism, essays, interviews. Pitch us: www.motherjones.com/contribute/w...

I've had a Google Alert set on Missouri AG Andrew Bailey for a couple years. His aggressive (and at times extralegal) attacks on abortion, local Democrats, trans people often get slapped down in court. But winning wasn't the point. The point was building a rep. Now he's headed to help run the FBI.

Israel has killed nearly 200 Palestinian journalists in Gaza The latest killings, on Sunday, were targeted attacks on reporters covering the war in Gaza, according to Al Jazeera, which employed them. New @motherjones.com: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The Police Records Access Project database, built by UC Berkeley and Stanford and distributed by news outlets including the Chronicle, allows searches by name, agency or keyword.

The thing I love most about running is talking to everyone endlessly about how I'm not doing it.

As someone who occasionally dabbles in troll-like behavior, I kinda get Gilbert Arenas. Jokes is jokes. But his KAT take was so mindblowingly misogynist and cruel that I can help but think of him as a bully.

This Holocaust denier has the most popular history newsletter on Substack -- truly scary (not not surprising!) stuff: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

"Palestinian children have been killed at a rate of more than one per hour since the war began." 60,000 Gazans have been killed. 18,500 were children. These are their names.

How does the Epstein scandal end? I went over some likely scenarios. Mostly it’s just amazing to consider what an absurd Gordian knot the Trump administration has created for themselves. Featuring some thoughts from the very smart @rothschildmd.bsky.social. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Loved doing this short interview where @kashana.bsky.social schooled me on a bit of the history of Black women in comedy: www.motherjones.com/media/2025/0...

1/ Important new piece from @billmckibben.bsky.social: who worries that Trump is ripping the bonds that hold this vast country together—the very idea of a diverse democracy; our aspirational story—past the point of repair: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
