UPDATE:

10:41: The Supreme Court has rejected Troy Davis’s appeal and prison officials report that the execution of Troy Davis is proceeding within "half an hour."

7:30: The Supreme Court of the United States has issued a temporary reprieve for Troy Davis. It’s very unclear what the reprieve means. Davis could still be executed at any minute or the SCOTUS could issue a full stay.

The State of Georgia is preparing to execute Troy Anthony Davis tonight in one of the most high-profile executions in the United States in years. Davis is scheduled to be killed by lethal ejection at 7 pm. EDT, one day after the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles rejected clemency. Activists are holding vigils coast to coast. Democracy Now! is airing a special broadcast from outside the prison in Jackson, Georgia, from 6 to 8 pm. EDT, where hundreds of protesters have already assembled.

Support The Nation’s June Fundraising Campaign

With the midterm elections now firmly upon us, the question is whether Democratic candidates will do more than merely occupy ballot lines as mild alternatives to the red-hot crisis that is Donald Trump.

As Trump spends over $1 billion a day on a globally destabilizing war on Iran and admits that he doesn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation,” millions across the country are struggling with the surging costs of essentials. Democrats must seize this moment and advance bold, small-“d” populist ideas—not settle for cynical caution that once again snatches defeat from the jaws of victory.

The Nation elevates progressive ideas, movements, and elected officials achieving real change across the country into the national conversation. At the same time, our journalists are exposing how crypto and AI-funded super PACs are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to knock out candidates they oppose, reporting on the devastating impact of the Supreme Court’s evisceration of the Voting Rights Act, and sounding the alarm on attempts by red states to quickly redraw electoral maps, disenfranchising Southern Black voters.

We can play this critical role because of support from readers like you. This June, we’re raising $20,000 to power The Nation’s independent journalism in the run-up to November’s immensely consequential elections.

It’s in our power to build a more just society, and your support at this critical moment brings us closer to that bold vision. I hope you’ll donate today.

Onward,
