They Want You to Be Scared. Don't Give It To Them.

A message from Gaslit Nation to our listeners about the political assassinations in Minnesota. When something bad happens that's clearly meant to intimidate people into silence, the best course of action is to shock and demoralize the perpetrators by channeling your rage and grief into standing up and speaking out. Don't back down.

You're not alone in this. We have our community, and countless others refusing to be silenced.

Join us at a NoKings.org protest today. And if you're in NYC, be sure to vote for Brad Lander and Zohran Mamdani. Watch their fun joint endorsement video in the show notes. Find your early voting polling station there, too. Early voting starts today!
