Welcome to the jetstream, where elite criminal impunity flies above laws and accountability. Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman joins Gaslit Nation to connect the global dots on oligarchy in the White House.  We start with Qatar, a small but powerful gas station dictatorship, and a leading financier of terrorists. Once diplomatically isolated for its links to fellow terror-state Iran as well as groups linked to Al-Qaeda and ISIS, Qatar has been back in business, brokering nuclear talks with Russia and Iran, investing billions with the Kremlin, propping up Hamas, and gifting Trump a $400,000 luxury jet, dubbed a “flying palace.” National security risk? Absolutely. Surveillance threat? Almost certainly. Bribery? Looks like it. But what is Qatar getting in return? Qatar, the second-largest buyer of U.S. weapons, after its nemesis Saudi Arabia, recently secured a $2B U.S. arms deal, thanks to Trump. It also invested $10 billion in a Texas-based natural gas venture that requires federal oversight, under Trump. Andrea and Olga go through all the ways Trump and Qatar enjoy kleptocratic quid-pro-quo, and years of Trump's Middle East-linked corruption that illegally helped him come to power in 2016, enriching him and his family, Kremlin-style.  This week's bonus show, available for subscribers at the Truth-teller level ($5/month) and higher, looks at ways to stay grounded and fight back in the deliberately engineered chaos of oligarchy and its firehose of corruption.

In the latest episode of the You Make The Scene podcast, I had the privilege of sitting down with Ash Tubb from the rising UK band, Sugar Horse. It was an enlightening conversation that covered a wide range of topics, from their musical influences to their ever-evolving creative process. Ash opened up about the band's journey, discussing how they've worked hard to craft a distinctive sound that defies easy categorization, blending heavy, atmospheric elements with deeply emotional and authentic storytelling.We also took a deep dive into the making of their latest album, Grand Scheme of Things, unpacking the themes and experiences that influenced its creation. Ash shared the band's desire to produce music that is both raw and relatable, giving listeners something they can connect with on an emotional level. Throughout the conversation, we touched on the importance of staying true to their vision, experimenting with sound, and not being afraid to push boundaries in their songwriting. This episode provides an insightful look into Sugar Horse's artistic journey, the deeper meaning behind their music, and what's on the horizon for the band.
