This morning, Carly Fiorina, a Tea Party–backed political neophyte running against California Senator Barbara Boxer, a three-term Democratic incumbent, released two new ads with the same message: her opponent represents the failures in Washington and she represents change.

What’s left unsaid is what Fiorina’s disastrous tenure running Hewlett-Packard represents. The company’s stock price dropped by 50 percent during her reign , only to rally 10 percent on the announcement of her firing. And despite touting her business experience, as company CEO she laid off 30,000 employees and shipped their jobs overseas. But now she claims that, as a senator, she’ll be a catalyst for creating jobs!

Watch this new video from Brave New Films for a detailed report on Fiorina’s record as CEO of Hewlett-Packard and meet some of the people who worked for her.

Support independent journalism that exposes oligarchs and profiteers


Donald Trump’s cruel and chaotic second term is just getting started. In his first month back in office, Trump and his lackey Elon Musk (or is it the other way around?) have proven that nothing is safe from sacrifice at the altar of unchecked power and riches.

Only robust independent journalism can cut through the noise and offer clear-eyed reporting and analysis based on principle and conscience. That’s what The Nation has done for 160 years and that’s what we’re doing now.

Our independent journalism doesn’t allow injustice to go unnoticed or unchallenged—nor will we abandon hope for a better world. Our writers, editors, and fact-checkers are working relentlessly to keep you informed and empowered when so much of the media fails to do so out of credulity, fear, or fealty.

The Nation has seen unprecedented times before. We draw strength and guidance from our history of principled progressive journalism in times of crisis, and we are committed to continuing this legacy today.

We’re aiming to raise $25,000 during our Spring Fundraising Campaign to ensure that we have the resources to expose the oligarchs and profiteers attempting to loot our republic. Stand for bold independent journalism and donate to support The Nation today.

Onward,

Katrina vanden Heuvel
