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.

Disobey authoritarians, support The Nation

Over the past year you’ve read Nation writers like Elie Mystal, Kaveh Akbar, John Nichols, Joan Walsh, Bryce Covert, Dave Zirin, Jeet Heer, Michael T. Klare, Katha Pollitt, Amy Littlefield, Gregg Gonsalves, and Sasha Abramsky take on the Trump family’s corruption, set the record straight about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s catastrophic Make America Healthy Again movement, survey the fallout and human cost of the DOGE wrecking ball, anticipate the Supreme Court’s dangerous antidemocratic rulings, and amplify successful tactics of resistance on the streets and in Congress.

We publish these stories because when members of our communities are being abducted, household debt is climbing, and AI data centers are causing water and electricity shortages, we have a duty as journalists to do all we can to inform the public.

In 2026, our aim is to do more than ever before—but we need your support to make that happen. 

Through December 31, a generous donor will match all donations up to $75,000. That means that your contribution will be doubled, dollar for dollar. If we hit the full match, we’ll be starting 2026 with $150,000 to invest in the stories that impact real people’s lives—the kinds of stories that billionaire-owned, corporate-backed outlets aren’t covering. 

With your support, our team will publish major stories that the president and his allies won’t want you to read. We’ll cover the emerging military-tech industrial complex and matters of war, peace, and surveillance, as well as the affordability crisis, hunger, housing, healthcare, the environment, attacks on reproductive rights, and much more. At the same time, we’ll imagine alternatives to Trumpian rule and uplift efforts to create a better world, here and now. 

While your gift has twice the impact, I’m asking you to support The Nation with a donation today. You’ll empower the journalists, editors, and fact-checkers best equipped to hold this authoritarian administration to account. 

I hope you won’t miss this moment—donate to The Nation today.

Onward,

Katrina vanden Heuvel 

Editor and publisher, The Nation
