Fight for the Vulnerable: The Eliza Orlins Interview Feb 03, 2021

Show notes

We look forward to bringing you our coverage of the Second Trump Impeachment Trial which starts next week, including discussing the most vulnerable Republican Senators up for re-election in 2022. This week we highlight the urgent importance of fighting for the most vulnerable in our interview with New York City public defender Eliza Orlins, a staff attorney at The Legal Aid Society taking on Cy Vance for Manhattan District Attorney. Vance betrayed the American people and must go.

Investigations Now! Jan 27, 2021

Show notes

Welcome to the first Gaslit Nation episode held in the Biden eras! The Trump administration is no longer a transnational crime syndicate masquerading as a government – but unfortunately there is still a transnational crime syndicate at large. While it's obviously a relief to no longer have a mafia White House, the hostile actors that helped a Kremlin asset to take executive power still remain, and we break down these ongoing threats in this episode.

Moral Courage Jan 20, 2021

Show notes

Welcome to the final Gaslit Nation episode recorded during the Trump administration! Wow, does that feel good to write. Unfortunately, the conclusion of the most treasonous and sadistic administration in US history is accompanied by a host of other threats which we describe throughout the episode, but take a moment. You voted out an autocrat who employed every mechanism of voter suppression at his disposal. He then enacted a violent coup. Americans have overcome incredible odds – a rare achievement.

Clear Intent Jan 13, 2021

Show notes

This two-hour special is the longest Gaslit Nation episode we have ever done, and the most serious. We break down the attack on the Capitol by domestic terrorists, showing how this was orchestrated at the highest levels of power and enabled by complicit actors in broken institutions. We lay out probable paths for the United States at this critical juncture, and discuss what we need to do to avoid the fate of the USSR, which is the model for Trump's crime cult.

Traitors and Patriots Jan 06, 2021

Show notes

Happy New Year, everyone -- the hellscape of 2020 is finally over and we've got a whole new hellscape to explore! We take stock of Trump's ongoing coup attempt and his recorded shakedown efforts against Georgia Republican officials, the prospect of violence as the GOP Sedition Caucus and the Proud Boys try to destroy democracy from within, the Trump admin's plans to use Iran for a planned "national emergency" to illegally extend Trump's power, the ongoing massive Russian cyberattack and much, much more!

All the President's Crimes: The Jennifer Taub Interview Dec 30, 2020

Show notes

In the second part of this interview with Jennifer Taub, the author of Big Dirty Money, we talk about the legal liability of Trump, Ivanka and Jared, Manafort, Stone, and other walking national security threats from the most corrupt administration of all time. We ask what advice she has for Biden and his administration, and what his new attorney general should do about all these dangerous actors running around with state secrets.

Big Dirty Money: The Jennifer Taub Interview Dec 22, 2020

Show notes

In the first of this two-part interview with Jennifer Taub, author of Big Dirty Money, she breaks down definitions – "dirty money", "dark money", "white-collar crime" – and fields questions about why no one in power is doing much to remedy these crises. Taub explains the devastating impact of white-collar crime on ordinary Americans, and discusses the Sacklers and other corporate criminals who have caused mass death.

Barr and Other Hacks Dec 16, 2020

Show notes

We are halfway through the attempted coup – formerly known as the presidential transition process – and the United States has not completely collapsed (yet) so, yay? What a way to end 2020! We also discuss the vaccines and Biden's electoral college win, so it's not all bad news, we promise.

Donald Trump Is a Terrorist Attack on America Dec 09, 2020

Show notes

As Trump continues to threaten public officials and attempt to overturn the election results, he puts at stake not only our nation's political future, but the literal survival of its citizens. More Americans are projected to die from the Covid-19 pandemic than died during World War II. The majority of those deaths were preventable. Americans are not dying: they are being killed by the malice and failures of their own government.
