Action Alert: New York Times Protest

This Monday at the Gaslit Nation political salon, a crucial announcement was made: Rise and Resist is staging a protest outside the New York Times building this Wednesday, September 18th, at 9am. Their mission? To demand that the New York Times stop normalizing Trump's dangerous rhetoric and fascist threat to our democracy.

Trump's blatant lies and hate speech not only fuel political violence, but have also led to two assassination attempts against him. His dangerous behavior is a crisis, and the Times' failure to address this seriously contributes to the problem. They are gaslighting the public by treating these issues as normal.

Andrea will join the protest, and encourages Gaslit Nation listeners to come out and support this important cause. Look for us on the corner of 8th Avenue and 42nd Street.

Also, a big thank you to everyone who attended the launch of In the Shadow of Stalin at the Ukrainian Institute of America. The event was magical! Stay tuned for the audio and the video on Patreon this Saturday at 3pm ET for all who follow the show there, featuring a special live chat on Patreon for those watching the video at the same time. More exciting Gaslit Nation events are coming soon!

On September 18 at 4:00 PM ET: Join our virtual live taping with the one and only Politics Girl, Leigh McGowan, author of A Return to Common Sense: How to Fix America Before We Really Blow It.

On September 24 at 12:00 PM ET: Join our virtual live taping with David Pepper, author of Saving Democracy. Join us as David discusses his new art project based on Project 2025.
