Gaslit Nation

This is an excerpt of this week's bonus episode where we discuss Biden's State of the Union and the GOP troll factory in the House and what comes next for the civil war tremors driven by Trump's Kremlin Klown Kar, otherwise known as the January 6 insurrectionists. We also answer questions from our listeners at the Democracy Defender tier and higher on Patreon about Havana Syndrome, how to organize...

We at Gaslit Nation like to think big picture, so like a pair of melting clocks in a desert wasteland we shall force your memory to persist! This week, we look back at the last two years and come to a terrible realization: Trump lost, but the coup won.  Among the points of evidence for this claim: 1) The seditionists and insurrectionists who plotted the coup now control the House of Representative...

Hey DOJ – quit writing and start indicting! This week we discuss the ongoing grotesque trend of former officials writing books about all the crimes they didn't solve instead of actually protecting our country while in office. This is a long-brewing crisis going back to the days of John Bolton and James Comey, and its latest iteration is Mark Pomerantz, another lawyer lackey timing his "tell-all" f...

Gaslit Nation has been studying Russian oligarch-aiding FBI traitors since our podcast launched in 2018, and what did we get for our diligent efforts? Yet another traitor! This week we discuss the indictment of Charlie McGonigal, the former top counterintelligence official in the New York field office who was secretly working for mega-oligarch Oleg Deripaska while pretending to investigate him. (Y...

Welcome to a series we're now doing called the Florida Super Special. Since the state of Florida has had such a big impact on the hellscape we now find ourselves in, setting things off with helping bring George W. Bush and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to power in 2000, this may be our first Florida Super Special, but it won't be our last. In this bonus, you'll hear just some of the ways Rus...

America has a new leading export – sedition! Globe-trotting unpunished coup-plotter Steve Bannon and his elite operatives have moved their operation to Brazil, attempting to violently unseat democratically elected president Lula. Meanwhile, ousted dictator Jair Bolsonaro has taken up residence in Florida, the home base of unpunished mafiosos from around the world! We discuss the events in Brazil,...

Our opening clip is from a November 2022 video of Steve Bannon, serial violent coup-plotter. It was put out by Eduardo Bolsonaro, the son of defeated former Brazillian president Jair Bolsonaro, who visited Florida in November, meeting with Bannon and Trump. His father is currently in the suburbs of Orlando. Florida is a growing hotbed of the global fascist movement. For the full discussion and to...

Welcome back to the fifth year of Gaslit Nation and the fiftieth year of the quest for Donald Trump's tax returns!  This week we discuss a panoply of government criminals and their dirty donors, ranging from newly minted oligarch cash receptacle "George Santos" (or whatever his name really is) to fellow recipients of mafia money in Congress (sadly it's nearly everyone) to Trump's half-century free...

The 1930s are back! But this time, we're fighting dictators, wannabe dictators, and their propagandists on cable TV and social media platforms. Since the 1930s have returned, super-charged with new tech weapons, we should bring some of the heroes of the 1930s back, too. Enter historian Deborah Cohen , the author of Last Call at the Hotel Imperial , a riveting look at the generation of leading jour...

How does the world stop a genocide? How will Russia's war in Ukraine end? Why should Americans, or anyone around the world, care about Ukraine today? Historian Timothy Snyder, who recently produced a viral YouTube series by simply putting his lectures online of his class teaching the making of modern Ukraine , returns to Gaslit Nation. Snyder is our first three-time guest, making him Rufus to our...

It's the most wonderful time of the year! There'll be scary ghost stories, and tales of the glories of war criminals from long, long ago! This week's Gaslit Nation tells two stories. One is about the imprisoned Russian mercenary arms trader who enabled the most brutal people in the world for decades only to be freed in a trade for an American basketball player and released to his homeland to likel...

Important call to action: Contact your rep in the U.S. House and your two Senators in Congress to demand that they urgently pass financial support for Ukraine before the end of the year. Here are more details on the big budget showdown in Congress, and here's how to contact your reps in Congress.

We're doubling your chances to receive a signed copy of Sarah's latest book They Knew and a Mr. Jones film poster. Join us for our final phone bank of 2022 as we make calls to get out the vote in Georgia with Indivisible to keep Reverend Warnock in the Senate where he belongs and to defeat Herschel Walker, a puppet of GOP fascism. Every phone call we make matters, because every vote matters. So co...

Important reminder! We're phone banking with our friends at Indivisible for Reverend Raphael Warnock who we need to keep in the Senate, because he's a good person; Dems need a 51 majority in the Senate to have a stronger hand negotiating with the ruthless GOP/Manchin/Sinema; and we cannot normalize bonkers Herschel Walker in the Senate for six years. And finally, the Senate map is abysmal for Dems...
