THIS JUST IN: I’m launching a new newsletter, “This Land,” w/ exclusive content: news analysis, behind-the-scenes media & reporting tales, recommendations on what to read/watch/listen to & plenty of audience interaction. Be the first to sign up today. 1/4
secure.motherjones.com/flex/mj/key/LA…
"This Land" will arrive in your email in-box several times a week & feature material from me that doesn’t appear on the MoJo website or in the magazine. This is not a Substack newsletter, and I'm not leaving Mother Jones. Just expanding. 2/4
"This Land" will contain stories behind the stories and plenty of ways for you to be part of an ongoing conversation. (Look for reader-participation features, online salons, and more.) There'll even some rock-and-roll remembrances. 3/4
Why the name “This Land” for the newsletter? I’ll explain in the first issue, which will come out next week. Please sign up now. I look forward to getting your feedback on what works or—yikes!—doesn’t. And please spread the word by RTing this thread. See you in your in-box. 4/4
Or maybe this is a better GIF for this new project:

Remember the video I found of a Stop the Steal organizer who called for the "execution" of Trump's foes? He was just indicted on a conspiracy charge related to the 1/6 attack on the US Capitol. 1/4

Here's the indictment.

The indictment against Hostetter notes that he advocated violence against those who supported the 2020 election results and cites the speech I reported. 3/4

Good morning from the US Capitol.

A beautiful cold day. With thousands of troops.
From beneath the podium where Joe Biden will become president.
Setting socially distanced seats for the VIPs.

I was at the US Capitol this morning to get a COVID test—mandatory for journalists covering the inauguration. It’s a militarized zone. This is what Trump has done to America. 1/7
Troops guarding the citadel of democracy from militant extremists radicalized by Trump and his lies. 2/7
Handing out ammo on Capitol Hill 3/7

With the GA Senate races coming to a close, here's a thread recapping my reporting on @kloeffler & her conflicts/questionable business dealings. First the stories, then a breakdown. Please share. #GAsen 1/4

.@KLoeffler was a top exec at Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) & owned a lot of ICE stock; her husband is its CEO. In the Senate, she served on a subcomm. overseeing the CFTC, which regulates ICE, as the CFTC made decisions affecting ICE. Big conflict! 2/4
motherjones.com/politics/2020/…
While @kloeffler opposed new COVID relief in the Senate, her husband's company, Intercontinental Exchange, made an $11 billion deal that sought to profit off the pandemic. She owned millions of dollars in ICE stock & stood to gain personally from this. 3/4

A Thread and an Ask: I know you're all getting hit at the end of the year by a ton of good causes requesting money right now. Let me add to that rush. If you value the work we do at @MotherJones, please help us with a donation. 1/X

The Trump era has been a stretch of death and demagoguery. Through it all, we at @MotherJones have been doing kick-ass journalism to uncover the corruption, greed, lies, and treachery—reporting on the pandemic, the GOP war on democracy, social inequality & other betrayals. 2/6
We can only do this work because of people like you. Really. @MotherJones is a nonprofit. No rich owner. No corporate backing. That affords us great independence. But it means we have to rattle the cup. No one likes doing that. But that's how we're able to keep on going. 3/6
