Episode Details

Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman joins Gaslit Nation to break down the Kremlin's plan for America: stirring up civil war. Russia is hoping to kick our already chaotic political circus into overdrive, but here's the twist that the Kremlin—along with many white male pundits—completely missed: women across the political spectrum are furious.

Whether it's the GOP's authoritarian fantasies, including femicide, or the media's endless obsession ignoring women's humanity, women in every state across America are punching Nazis in the ballot box, driving out a historic early vote.

Later in the week, look out for the Gaslit Nation Election 2024 Super Special, featuring Terrell Starr of the Black Diplomats Podcast and Substack. It will include this week's bonus show, available to Patreon subscribers at the Truth-teller ($5/month) tier and higher. On Monday at 4pm ET, we're having another political salon over Zoom to brace for the impact of MAGA trying to steal our election with Russia's help, either through Mike Johnson, the failed legal architect of Trump's Big Lie, or the MAGA majority on the Supreme Court, should the electoral college come down to one state. Or else, we're celebrating with a Gaslit Nation virtual block party! Either way, to our Patreon community that keeps the show going, see you on Monday, for whatever comes next.

Robert Reich on Mastodon: "If Harris wins, will Congress certify the results? There are now 172 election deniers in Congress. But the new Congress gets sworn in before the presidential election is certified. Your down ballot votes could decide whether your presidential vote is respected or discarded."
