Karl Rove, under subpoena, flees the country

Rove defies subpoena, skips House hearing

Former top White House adviser Karl Rove on Thursday ignored a subpoena and skipped a House Judiciary subcommittee hearing on the alleged politicization of the Department of Justice under the Bush administration.

<...>

Cannon said Rove was out of the country on a “long-planned trip.”

8. He went to Stockholm at the invitation of the prime minister.
Probably to advise him in how to lie, cheat and steal an election and ignore the law.
