Gaslit Nation
In this extremely enraged episode of Follow the Money, we ask the only question that actually matters in Trump’s second crime spree through history: who is getting rich off of Trump chaos and the world’s misery? Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman of Trump Tyranny Tracker and Andrea Chalupa of Gaslit Nation together trace a financial pipeline of blood money that runs from the Kremlin, through Qatar, through crypto, straight into Trump World and its favorite oligarch bagmen. While Ukrainian kids are protesting, begging the world not to look away as Russia bombs their playgrounds and...

As the House finally votes to demand the release of the Epstein files, Gaslit Nation talks to journalist E. Jean Carroll about her new book . Carroll shares her chilling story of taking on a serial predator, and how to defeat not just Trump but the system that empowers him. Trump owes Carroll $83.3 million in her rape and defamation case against him. But he’s decided to drag things out by taking the case to the Supreme Court–which he packed with Republican idealogues. Carroll shares how she became one of the few people on the planet to successfully hold Trump legally liable, her...

Two weeks ago, Gaslit Nation pointed out that Vance is grooming the Christian nationalist movement to accept him as Trump’s replacement. Turns out Vance knew–they all knew–that the Epstein paper trail was radioactive. The House released explosive Epstein documents that confirm what Gaslit Nation listeners already knew: the real story is not what’s been revealed, but what’s still being buried. We will continue to unpack this story as it develops, including the Kremlin connection as when it came to Trump. For now, the Big Takeaways: The emails released came from the...

Convicted felon Donald Trump got booed at an NFL game after our euphoric election. So the elites in Congress hit the panic button. This is World War III in America: oligarchy, Big Tech, and Democratic Senators obeying in advance. Here to help us get back on track is , a historian at Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies, and the author of Intent to Destroy: Russia’s Two-Hundred-Year Quest to Dominate Ukraine and other works on the anatomy of evil. He shares his advice for building an opposition to fascism in the U.S. and what he fears more than a...

Is Donald Trump dying, or just decomposing in real time? He’s slurring words, disappearing for days, and bragging that he “aced” an IQ test that was actually a dementia screening. Florida Man may be wilding out destroying our White House, but his VP seems to be circling. It looks like JD Vance is wasting no time trying to lock down the Christian nationalist vote by publicly humiliating his Hindu wife Usha and cuddling up to Charlie Kirk’s leather-clad widow. He’s moving fast, which means he probably knows Trump’s losing it even more than usual. Meanwhile, the Epstein cover-up...

Welcome to the Gaslit Nation Trump-Epstein Super Special, where we dig into the 15-year friendship between convicted felon, traitor, and alleged pedophile Donald Trump and confirmed pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. We saved this episode for October 30th – Ivanka’s birthday – to remind her and Jared they’ll never install her as president. America will be liberated from elite criminal impunity, and we will never forget. Our government, our Supreme Court, our Congress, and too many of our so-called leaders have been hijacked by an elite network of predators – a real-life QAnon hiding...

If you or someone you know needs extra support to survive Trump’s economic warfare on the American people, to find help near you, enter your zip code in . For decades, Christian nationalists have insisted that controlling women’s bodies is a moral crusade. What Irin Carmon shows in her blistering new book, Unbearable: Five Women and the Perils of Pregnancy in America, is that this crusade doesn’t just target abortion, it poisons every aspect of pregnancy care in America and forces authoritarianism into our homes and doctor visits. Whether you want to be pregnant or don’t, the...

Like Putin, Donald Trump is determined to hide from the people. He’s promising that a taxpayer-funded FBI–run by MAGA troll Kash Patel–will “secure” the next election. The MAGA cult plans to steal it, again. And with Republican gerrymandering, bot farms from Russia to China, and Elon Musk’s Twitter turned into a disinformation landfill, he just might pull it off. Again. Causing one of the longest government shutdowns in American history – again – Trump gives Argentina a $40 billion bailout. Why Argentina? It’s where a lot of Nazis fled after World War II, and maybe...
