Brian Kemp is a Klansman

Gaslit Nation ·

2024/10/02

On Gaslit Nation, we often say that America’s history is an authoritarian one for nonwhite people. That brutal legacy flows directly through the family of Georgia Governor Brian Kemp. His ancestors were among the first to bring enslaved Africans to Georgia and fought to prevent America’s Founding Fathers from banning slavery in the Declaration of Independence. Fast forward to today: Brian Kemp continues that legacy by denying voting rights to the descendants of those his ancestors enslaved. And in

On September 16, we gathered at the stunning Ukrainian Institute of America in New York City for a very special evening. It was a celebration of the release of In the Shadow of Stalin, the powerful graphic novel adaptation of the film Mr. Jones, directed by the brilliant Agnieszka Holland.

This week we’re joined by Stephanie Baker, an award-winning investigative reporter from Bloomberg News, who’s out with a new book from the frontlines on the war on kleptocracy: Punishing Putin: Inside the Global Economic War to Bring Down Russia, the most sanctioned country in the world. Sanctions are a double-edged sword. While they’ve undeniably strained the Russian economy, causing hundreds of billions in losses, they aren’t a panacea.

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

Moral Panic: Fact-Checking the War on Trans Kids

2024/09/11

Convicted felon Donald Trump relies on a well-worn GOP playbook to scare their voters to the polls: stir up moral panic over LGBTQ people. Moms for Liberty—well-funded by shadowy right-wing interests—are out there banning books and promoting anti-trans, anti-gay laws straight from Viktor Orban’s Hungary and Putin’s Russia. We might inadvertently feed into their culture war hysteria if we don’t step back and see how their disinformation machine works. As Erin Reed points out in her essential guide to

Guess who finally decided to do their job! The Department of Justice dropped indictments on a sweeping Russian disinformation criminal ring, funding MAGA social media-stormtroops calling for the violent overthrow of our democracy to establish a Russian-style dictatorship and abandoning Ukraine to Russia, where it would be genocided. As Gaslit Nation has long warned: If it sounds like a Kremlin shill, it’s a Kremlin shill. Fortunately for the DOJ, Russian-backed MAGA traitors in Congress confessed to

Move over, first class passengers on the Titanic! America has a new class of doomed elites! Extreme income inequality threatens our democracy and the security of the world, but unions are fighting back, showing our path forward for the safety of everyone. C.E.O.s and billionaires celebrate record-breaking profits, but for everyday workers, wages have remained stagnant, not keeping pace with the rising cost of living. The result?

Trump, Egypt, and Russia: A Nuclear Power Horror...

2024/08/30

Remember when Trump was impeached for holding up Ukraine aid to pressure Zelensky into fabricating a scandal about Biden? That’s how Trump famously operates—pushing for a quid pro quo. That brings us to Egypt, a dictatorship with a track record of bribing Americans, including disgraced Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, who was found guilty on all counts of being a paid foreign agent of Egypt. In 2016, Trump met with Egyptian dictator Abdel Fattah el-Sisi behind closed doors at the U.N. General

In the polls, convicted felon Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are essentially tied. Jill Stein, Cornel West, and RFK, Jr. are third-party candidates, supported by far-right dark money groups aiming to "Ralph Nader" the election in Trump’s favor. Meanwhile, mainstream media—especially the New York Times—continues to normalize MAGA fascism.
