The Playbook for Defeating MAGA: The Church Committee Report
Gaslit Nation
In the 1970s, Senator Frank Church, a Democrat from Idaho, stuck his neck out–unlike members of Congress today–to take on the real deep state–the FBI and CIA carrying out LSD mind-control experiments on Americans, terrorizing activists, and committing assassinations with the mafia, including against witnesses. The Church Committee Report, based on real Congressional investigations, not just performative show trials, shows us how to confront and dismantle the lawless, mass-murdering MAGA regime. Historians Matthew Guariglia, a senior policy analyst at the Electronic Frontier...

Impeach President Stephen Miller: Justice for Alex Pretti
Gaslit Nation
Stephen Miller, Donald Trump, Kristi Noem, J.D. Vance, and the entire MAGA Klan murdered Alex Pretti. They sent Bovino into early retirement, but he must be arrested, along with his agents who shot 10 bullets into Pretti, an ICU nurse for the VA who spent his life helping others. Demand the impeachment of President Stephen Miller: force Trump to throw him under the bus, too. It's a start to the demands for justice. To honor Pretti and our work ahead, find time to grieve. We cannot power through this collective rage and anxiety without releasing it. Even the strong need to cry in the...

We Need a Fourth American Revolution
Gaslit Nation
Here's what you missed at last week's Gaslit Nation Salon: America's first revolution was against the British empire. The second American revolution was the Civil War to abolish slavery. The third revolution was for Civil Rights to dismantle the authoritarianism of the Jim Crow South. We're not getting out of this without a Fourth American Revolution. Agonize then organize and socialize. The news cycle is designed to exhaust you, but you don't have to face the autocracy alone.

Do Fascists Feel Joy? -- TEASER
Gaslit Nation
The world’s leading philosophers and psychologists were based in Germany and Austria during the rise of Hitler. They studied the darkest chapter of human history while trying to make sense of it and survive it themselves. Their teachings are an urgent alarm for us today: fascists seek endless conflict through domination, and it will never be enough. Drawing on George Orwell’s analysis of Hitler, we see that while democracy offers the radical concept of "having a good time," fascism preys on a neurotic, broken need for "struggle, danger, and death." It is an addiction to conflict, often...

MAGA's Vatican Cold War
Gaslit Nation
Like the rest of us, Pope Leo, the first American Pope, is under siege by MAGA. We discuss MAGA’s war on the “globalist,” “culturally Marxist” Catholic Church with Colleen Dulle, Vatican reporter for America Magazine and author of Christian Nationalists have captured the White House, Congress, and Supreme Court. Now they are targeting the Holy See. We track the strategy from Steve Bannon’s "gladiator school" for disinformation agents to recently converted Catholic JD Vance using his faith to justify mass deportations and ICE terror squads. MAGA has launched a financial boycott of...

The Minnesota Miracle vs. The Insurrection Act - TEASER
Gaslit Nation
They shot a woman three times in the face. Now they want to send in the Insurrection Act. Why are they targeting Minnesota? The “Minnesota Miracle” showed how great our country could be: codified abortion rights, a trans refuge, free universal school meals. The Project 2025 agenda requires covering-up that progress works. We are watching history repeat. The crushing of "Red Vienna" by autocrat Chancellor Dollfuss in 1934 made Austria easier to invade by Hitler and the Nazis. The overthrow of a democratically elected labour government in the Spanish Civil War ushered in a dictatorship by a...

The History of Resistance We Aren't Taught
Gaslit Nation
They want you to be passive and quiet. But history tells a different story. We’re joined by award-winning comic creator Ben Passmore, author of , to dig into the stories that history books, and Hollywood, whitewash: De-sanitizing Resistance: We discuss how films and media often strip away the political intellect of figures like the Black Liberation Army, reducing revolutionary struggle to nihilism. Community as Armor: Ben puts the focus on true resistance as mutual aid. From the Jane Collective organizing healthcare, to prisoners organizing even from solitary confinement, the most...

TEASER - God, Guns, and Blood Money: Inside the Kremlin Church Running a Psy-Op on America
Gaslit Nation
The Russian Orthodox Church, a longtime arm of the Kremlin, is running an intelligence operation targeting MAGA’s Christian nationalism, to help turn America into a dictatorship. This week’s bonus show continues our conversation with Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman. She exposes a sweeping op by the Kremlin’s church. Russians, being white and Christian, get a pass that other terrorist regimes, like Iran, don’t. We fact check their mind-hacking op, and also answer questions from Gaslit Nation listeners–like if Putin and Trump got in a fight, who would win? Whether it's...
info_outlineAll we want for Christmas is a new Supreme Court. Here to tell us how we get there is legal scholar Madiba Dennie, author of The Originalism Trap: How Extremists Stole the Constitution and How We the People Can Take It Back.
What’s “originalism”? It’s white supremacy’s answer to the Civil Rights Movement, every bit as sneaky and immoral as Republican operative Lee Atwater’s “Southern Strategy,” which mobilized racist voters through racist dog whistles instead of open slurs. Originalism sounds fancy by design, but it’s pure fascist gaslighting, now wielded by the trash MAGA majority on the Supreme Court.
Gaslit Nation’s holiday gift to our listeners this year is to remind you of an inconvenient fact the media ignores: Donald Trump came to power in 2016 with the Kremlin’s very illegal help, as documented in both the Mueller Report and the bipartisan U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence report on Russian Active Measures Campaigns and Interference in the 2016 U.S. Election. That makes him an illegitimate president, which means his extreme Supreme Court picks should be impeached. More on that in part two of our discussion, coming Thursday.
Thank you to everyone who joined our holiday party on Monday. As requested, the link to the Outreach Committee for listeners interested in discussing ways to reach current or former MAGA cult members and help guide them back toward the light is available in the show notes on Patreon.
