SCOOP: The owners of the Democrats' big data firm have an unknown side gig: working to elect far-right Republicans. This is an inside-baseball story about the most important stuff in politics. Please read/RT my latest.
motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
You might know data is the most vital resource in politics these days. For the Democrats & progressives, TargetSmart is a key data firm that helps them develop voter data that can be used for crucial voter-contact programs. It had a $3m contract with the DNC last year. But...2/5
Unknown to political professionals in Dem and progressive circles, TargetSmart's owners also own a firm that works to elect far-right Republicans, including Stop the Steal leaders & 1/6 apologists. And this is sure to cause concern within the Dem. and prog. community....3/5

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

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
