The Bushra Amiwala Interview

Gaslit Nation is excited to announce a new show, for our subscribers, featuring Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman, a researcher on investigative journalist Craig Unger's bestselling books House of Trump, House of Putin and American Kompromat.

Follow the Money will feature Andrea and Olga every week, exposing who's getting rich off Trump, Putin, and other merchants of chaos, and what can be done about it.

Gen Z is rising up. In this special episode, community organizer and school board official Bushra Amiwala, now running for Congress in Illinois's 9th District, shares her story, her generation's view of a world in turmoil, and how they plan to build a more progressive and inclusive future, with our help.

For our Patreon subscribers who keep Gaslit Nation's independent journalism alive, we'll see you today at the Gaslit Nation Salon at 4 p.m. ET. The Zoom link is available on Patreon. Thank you for your support–we could not make Gaslit Nation without you.

Want to hear Gaslit Nation ad-free? Join our community of listeners for bonus shows, exclusive Q&A sessions, our group chat, invites to live events like our Monday political salons at 4pm ET over Zoom, and more! Sign up at Patreon.com/Gaslit!

Programming change: Our book club discussion has moved to next Monday November 3rd at 4pm at our Patreon salon. For the month of October, we're reading Deaf Republic by Ilya Kaminsky and Total resistance by Hans von Dach.
