This sounds like a dream, doesn’t it?   Well,
it’s not.  We have a unique opportunity right now to send Karl
Rove to jail, but only if we take immediate action.

All we
have to do is pressure the 40 members of the House Judiciary
Committee
, make them hold Rove in contempt and send him to
jail.  We’ve never had such a direct opportunity to hold Rove
accountable.  No, this is not enough punishment for his years and years of crimes, but it’s a huge start, and will
send a very clear message to the entire Bush administration.

We put together this video to explain the issues surrounding
Rove’s failure to testify before Congress, and why Rove should be
held in contempt and sent to jail.  Check out Send Karl Rove
to Jail,
and sign our
petition
to ensure that the HJC holds Rove in contempt. 

Today at 1pm ET / 10am PT, the first episode of Meet the
Bloggers
will air live, and Karl Rove will be the big
topic of discussion with bloggers Marcy Wheeler, Liliana Segura,
Baratunde Thurston, and special guest Arianna Huffington.  The
video will be featured on the show, sign the petition, forward it
to friends (don’t forget
to Digg it
), and go to meetthebloggers.org to send
in your own thoughts, and join the discussion at 1pm ET. 

If you can’t watch live, you can always see what was
discussed on the show anytime you want at meetthebloggers.org.

Support independent journalism that does not fall in line

Even before February 28, the reasons for Donald Trump’s imploding approval rating were abundantly clear: untrammeled corruption and personal enrichment to the tune of billions of dollars during an affordability crisis, a foreign policy guided only by his own derelict sense of morality, and the deployment of a murderous campaign of occupation, detention, and deportation on American streets. 

Now an undeclared, unauthorized, unpopular, and unconstitutional war of aggression against Iran has spread like wildfire through the region and into Europe. A new “forever war”—with an ever-increasing likelihood of American troops on the ground—may very well be upon us.  

As we’ve seen over and over, this administration uses lies, misdirection, and attempts to flood the zone to justify its abuses of power at home and abroad. Just as Trump, Marco Rubio, and Pete Hegseth offer erratic and contradictory rationales for the attacks on Iran, the administration is also spreading the lie that the upcoming midterm elections are under threat from noncitizens on voter rolls. When these lies go unchecked, they become the basis for further authoritarian encroachment and war. 

In these dark times, independent journalism is uniquely able to uncover the falsehoods that threaten our republic—and civilians around the world—and shine a bright light on the truth. 

The Nation’s experienced team of writers, editors, and fact-checkers understands the scale of what we’re up against and the urgency with which we have to act. That’s why we’re publishing critical reporting and analysis of the war on Iran, ICE violence at home, new forms of voter suppression emerging in the courts, and much more. 

But this journalism is possible only with your support.

This March, The Nation needs to raise $50,000 to ensure that we have the resources for reporting and analysis that sets the record straight and empowers people of conscience to organize. Will you donate today?
