Greg Palast joins us to discuss the devastating impact of voter suppression in the 2024 election.

To help us navigate these dark times, Gaslit Nation will hold our first book club. Join us next Monday, February 24, at 4pm ET for a salon discussion on two profound works: Albert Camus' The Stranger (the Matthew Ward translation) and Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning. These books capture the emotional truth of our era. Frankl, a Holocaust survivor and psychologist, offers extraordinary insights into how people confronted genocide in death camps. His account of prisoners organizing cabarets and finding spiritual connections, even in the face of death, is both harrowing and inspiring. Man's Search for Meaning is essential reading for understanding how casual sadism, like Elon Musk's highly illegal mass purge of live-saving government programs, is already taking root in the U.S.   This week's bonus show also features a continuation of our conversations with Elie Mystal, author of Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America, on why we need an EU travel ban of Ivanka Trump and others complicit in the destruction of democracy in America, and investigative journalist Greg Palast, director of Vigilantes, Inc., a must-see film about the GOP's war on democracy.

There's a troubling sense of normalcy bias among some Democratic leaders who believe they'll regain their footing in the 2026 midterms, riding another anti-Trump wave. But here's the critical question: will the United States even have free and fair elections? To answer that, we need to look back and ask: was the 2024 U.S. election free and fair? Elon Musk and Donald Trump, and those around them, break the law so brazenly, how can we trust they came to power without breaking the law?    According to investigative journalist Greg Palast, this week's guest and director of the must-see film Vigilantes Inc., which you can watch for free, the answer is a resounding no. Palast's analysis reveals the shocking normalization of Republican voter suppression: over 3.5 million votes were effectively canceled in 2024. This means 3.5 million Americans were denied their fundamental right to vote. And according to Palast, a significant number of suppressed voters are nonwhite. This isn't just voter suppression; it's a modern-day resurrection of Jim Crow, fueled by the Republican Party's relentless assault on democracy. In this week's bonus episode, out Friday, Elie Mystal, the Justice Correspondent for The Nation, and author of the new book Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America, explains how the GOP's reaction to the first Black president was to gut the Voting Rights Act, paving the way for Trump.    In this week's bonus episode, we also continue our conversation with Palast, diving into the power of film as a powerful force for confronting America's darkest history. Plus, we'll also hear from Mystal on why European nations must take a stand by imposing a travel ban on Ivanka Trump and others complicit in the destruction of our democracy—a move that could help hold the Musk-Trump regime accountable for its action, along with divestment strategies that brought down Apartheid.

GREG PALAST EXPOSES HOW THE 2024 ELECTION WAS JIM CROW DISENFRANCHISED   We start GREEP Zoom #211 with “Resistance” from our Poet Laureate MIMI GERMAN.   We then welcome the great GREG PALAST for a full-bore excursion into how the massive Jim Crow disenfranchisement of millions of Americans put Donald Trump back in the White House.   Palast warns that “your ballot will be rejected” at an astronomical rate if you are a person of color, meaning the 2024 vote count was heavily coded by race to pull off the soul-killing death-of-American-democracy coup now in poisoned progress.   Palast's VIGILANTES INC. is at www.gregpalast.com & is a must-see for anyone concerned about the preservation of what's left of American Constitutional freedom.   We also hear from the uniquely power election protection audit expert RAY LUTZ, and from Greg's associate PATRICE GALLAGHER.   Greg. Patrice & Ray are joined for clarifying comments from NATHAN TAYLOR, PAUL NEWMAN, HEDY TRIPP, CD BUCKLEY, JOHN SEELEY, MICHAEL MCMILLAN, LYNN FEINERMAN, JULIE WEINER, MICKI LEADER, ERINNE ROCHELLE, NICOLE UNG, BARBARA WRIGHT & other truly wonderful Greepster participants.   The upcoming national April 22 Earth Day broadcast is explained by prime organizer MYLA RESON, who will convene the breakthrough event in about two months.   Our co-convenor MIKE HERSH raises the question of whether there needs to be a dialogue as to whether there really is an anti-Christ and if what's happening now in America qualifies as “Apocalyptic.”    We will reconvene on PRESIDENT'S DAY to revisit much of the research done by Greg and available through VIGILANTES INC  at www.gregpalast.com.   See you on Prez Day with George & Abe, February 17, in Solartopia!!!

I frequently exclaim that we're living in 'Opposite World'. It's a place filled with gaslighting where things are pretty much the exact opposite of what we're being told. D'ump and his cult followers, while screaming that WE were stealing the election are actually the ones who've been stealing OUR votes. Remember the newish warning: Every accusation is a confession.In his new film, VIGILANTES, INC: AMERICA'S NEW VOTE SUPPRESSION HITMEN, Greg explains how they've been doing this and why Donald Trump is sitting in the Oval Office again. You can see it for free right now at gregpalast.com, on YouTube and Amazon Prime.I hope you'll watch both the film and my interview with Greg Palast, share them widely, and work to insure this never happens again.

DISSECTING THE DOOMSDAYS UPON US We start with a beautiful statement from Grammy-winner ALICIA KEYS on the power of diversity. We explore the real culpability of the White House—NOT diversity—for the air crash that has (thankfully) not had an equal in 25 years. Radio Host LYNNE FEINERMAN tells us that the fiscal sponsorship for her non-profit radio show has disappeared. From Minnesota's frozen tundra we hear HEDY TRIPP reports from a DEI conference on the anxiety being imposed on women on people of color. MYLA RESON reports that there are massive demonstrations in Los Angeles and elsewhere against ICE actions targeting immigrants. Co-convenor MIKE HERSH urges an end to the circular firing squad. Our Alabama heart doctor RUTH STRAUSS questions Trump's comprehension of tariffs. Health Justice Monitor's DON MCANNE terms the attack on USAID as “catastrophic.” We get a warning on DEI and the DC helicopter crash from NICOLE UNG. “Where are the Democrats?” asks New York's JULIE WEINER, a truly great election protection activist.  Election expert RAY LUTZ gives us many of the ins/out about how the 2024 election was conducted and tabulated. U. of Michigan grad NANCY NIPARKO questions how young men from her home state were impacted by the issue of war in the Middle East. GREEP engineer STEVE CARUSO confirms his belief in the “conspiracy” theory of massive disenfranchisement around the US. Solartopia co-host MYLA RESON introduces the idea of a national Eco-Broadcast Network. The status of Leonard Peltier is raised by Indivisible's MIMI S, followed by TATANKA BRICCA reporting that, thankfully, Leonard is in Turtle Island, NOT in federal prison. From “Nuclear Hotseat" Podcaster LIBBE HALEVY we hear the latest about atomic power's escalating insanity. We get a Yoruba version of Happy Birthday from MICHAEL O. JOHNSON. …and we will see you next week with the great GREG PALAST to find out who REALLY won the 2024 election.   

Elon Musk now has his fingers in America's finances. He's brazenly forcing his way into secure and protected systems. He has offended just about every federal worker with illegal buyout letters and threats to job safety. Now, it seems he's losing support. A new Economist/YouGov poll shows that more Republicans who liked the idea of the SpaceX/Tesla billionaire having a significant influence in the Trump administration are singing a different tune. Right after the election, 47% of Republicans surveyed said they wanted Musk to have a lot of influence. Now, that number is at 26%. We will check in with former federal prosecutor, David Katz to talk about the blatant illegalities of Musk's and Trump's policies and more. Investigative journalist Greg Palast returns to The Mark Thompson Show to discuss voting issues in the election.

The NAACP of Georgia estimates that by Election Day, the challenges exceeded 200,000 in Georgia alone.No less than 2,121,000 mail-in ballots were disqualified for minor clerical errors (e.g. postage due).At least 585,000 ballots cast in-precinct were also disqualified.1,216,000 “provisional” ballots were rejected, not counted.3.24 million new registrations were rejected or not entered on the rolls in time to vote.Greg Palast is a forensic economist and data journalist Palast covered vote suppression for The Guardian, BBC Television and Rolling Stone.

Democracy can win, despite the 2.3% suppression headwind. And that's our job as Americans: to end the purges, the vigilante challenges, the ballot rejections and the attitude that this is all somehow OK.

We start GREEP Zoom #203 with a gorgeous poem from our Laureate MIMI GERMAN, enhanced by our meeting on BEETHOVEN'S birthday. We then, with a shout-out from MYLA RESON, visit the horrendous case of LEONARD PELTIER, as well as the one of STEVE DONZIGER. TATANKA BRICCA promises to contact CHASE IRON EYES for next week's gathering. JOHN STEINER reminds us that 34 Members of Congress have written Biden asking for Leonard's freedom.

Pressure on Matt Gaetz proved to be too much. He is stepping away from the Attorney General nomination. During the run up to the election, Trump did his best to distance himself from Project 2025. It's a blueprint for implementing some draconian Christian nationalist policies that appear to be wildly unconstitutional. Trump said he had no idea who was behind the plan. Now, he is embracing its creators. So far, the following men have been tapped to serve in the Trump administration and also are neck deep in Project 2025: *Russ Vought, an architect of Project 2025 who supports aggressive use of presidential powers is reportedly being considered to lead the White House Budget Office K *Tom Homan, tapped to be the “border czar” *John Ratcliffe, who may be the next CIA director *Brendan Carr, heading the FCC *Pete Hoekstra, Trump's ambassador to Canada *Stephen Miller, led America First Legal, which advised on Project 2025, will be an assistant to the president, deputy chief of staff for policy and Homeland Security advisor. Some in Trump's circle, like Steve Bannon, have admitted that Project 2025 was the plan all along. We welcome our favorite Britisher to the show. Journalist Anthony Davis will talk politics. Investigative journalist Greg Palast will share some new details on efforts to count every ballot. Former federal prosecutor David Katz will discuss Trump' pending state cases out of New York and Georgia being put on hold.

Trump seems to be having more serious mental issues. Over the weekend at a rally, he referred to the late golfer Arnold Palmer's penis size. He's also sticking to his nonsensical lie that Kamala Harris never worked at McDonald's and showed up to work at a McDonald's cooking up french fries. Last week, he decided to play music at a town hall event and sway back and forth rather than take questions. Add to that his recent disrespect of auto workers, comparing the work they do to child's play, insulting Detroit in front of room full of Detroiters and while standing in California, threatening to withhold wildfire aid. It may be these “off the rails “type of appearances that have his staff canceling some pretty major interviews. He will appear on Fox & Friends, but he is checking out of other big media opportunities.  Though he seems to be imploding, the polls are still showing a presidential race that is just about neck and neck. We will see what CBS television and iHeartRadio political analyst Gary Dietrich thinks about all of that. Author and journalist Greg Palast will join us to talk about voter suppression. His film “Vigilantes Inc.: America's vote suppression hitmen” is a must see. True Crime Corner takes another dark turn.

Vigilantes Inc. - America's New Vote Suppression Hitmen2 days agoTwo family dynasties, one Black, one White, on a 3-century collision course. Operatives of Georgia Gov.

A Gaslit Nation listener at the Democracy Defender level asked for a handy guide to help a small business owner considering voting for Trump to reconsider. If you need help convincing the small business owners in your life not to vote against their interests, Gaslit Nation has you covered! This special episode breaks down all the reasons Trump will be disastrous for small business owners, including the bribes they'll have to pay after Trump finishes turning our country into lawless Russia, which has been the plan all along, as Gaslit Nation first warned. This week's bonus show also covers the VP debate. Why didn't Walz dogwalk Vance like Harris dogwalked Trump? Walz is the guy who coined “weird,” so we know he could have destroyed Vance, listing all the ways he's a Peter Thiel tool. Why didn't he? The answer may be in Walz's closing words. His warnings at the very end gave us important insight and guidance into what to expect in the tense months ahead, as discussed in this week's bonus show. Our discussion with investigative journalist Greg Palast, about his new must-watch film Vigilantes, Inc., and the audience Q&A at our live-taping, is included in this week's bonus show. Look out for more live-tapings soon!  To our listeners at the Democracy Defender level and higher, keep your questions coming as the Gaslit Nation Q&A continues!

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 Georgia, you can't even learn about this history because Kemp has worked to suppress it—that's how he holds onto power. As the must-watch documentary Vigilantes, Inc. by investigative journalist Greg Palast reveals, “suppressing history suppresses the vote.” Narrated by Rosario Dawson and produced by Martin Sheen, George DiCaprio, and Maria Florio, the film is available for free at SaveYourVote.org, a site launched by Leonardo DiCaprio. The name Vigilantes, Inc. traces back to 1946, when the Ku Klux Klan used it as a cover for their operations. Today, Kemp is leading the charge to use the Klan's playbook to steal Georgia for Donald Trump in 2024, and MAGA has a new A.I. weapon.  Palast is known for his investigative reports for The Guardian and bestsellers including The Best Democracy Money Can Buy. This week's bonus show, out Saturday for subscribers at the Truth-teller ($5/month) level and higher, will feature the audience Q&A with Palast at our live taping. Listeners' questions at the Democracy Defender ($10/month) level and higher will open the bonus show, incuding how to explain to small business owners that serially corrupt, Kremlin asset, career criminal Donald Trump is no businessman—he just played one on TV. Look out for that special Q&A bonus episode this Saturday, exclusively on Patreon. Discounted annual memberships are available.

Our hearts go out to the people impacted by Hurricane Helene and their anti-government governments, who will be replaced one day with public servants, which is what this conversation is about. To help those who are impacted, there's a resource on where to donate in the show notes. (Do not choose the Red Cross, for reasons explained in the show notes). Thank you.  Thank you to everyone who joined our live taping with Laboratories of Autocracy and Saving Democracy author David Pepper, who is not just a democracy warrior, but also the mastermind behind the new podcast series Project 2025: Up Close and Personal. Picture this: short, terrifying vignettes with a cast so star-studded, you'd think it was Hollywood's last gasp before a fascist takeover—J. Smith-Cameron, Fisher Stevens, Richard Schiff, Morgan Fairchild, Omid Abtahi, and many more! We previewed "Chapter 2" of the series–it's the audio equivalent of a cold sweat. You can listen to it [here]. Democrats have been playing defense for so long, they've forgotten what offense looks like. "There are two million uncontested races out there," David pointed out, which is about as comforting as knowing JD Vance's particular brand of weird fills the halls of power in Republican hostage states. David also shared the story of how he got a call out of the blue from Vice President Kamala Harris last spring, to discuss ways to fight back. Thanks to the audience Q&A, he shared who he thinks should be her Attorney General—should she win, of course. Want to make that dream a reality? Join the fight! Gaslit Nation hosts phonebanks with Sister District every Wednesday at 6 p.m. RSVP [here]. Join our next live taping on Tuesday October 1st at 12pm ET with Greg Palast, discussing his new film Vigilantes Inc: America's New Vote Suppression Hitmen.

Discounted annual memberships available!  Eric Adams, soon-to-be-former Mayor of New York City, has finally been indicted—a surprise to no one. In this special episode of Gaslit Nation, we break down the latest developments and remind our listeners: If this is what we know, imagine what we don't. Adams' corruption and assault on democracy in NYC are just the visible tip of a much larger, deeply entrenched network of local corruption that has long served as a feeding ground for foreign adversaries. America is in a war of attrition, both abroad and at home. The barbarians are at the gate, and now more than ever, it's going to take a resurgence of people-powered movements to defend our democracy and push back against these threats. In this special episode, we examine the latest attacks on American democracy and national security by Trump and his MAGA stormtroopers. At a recent rally in North Carolina, Trump once again vowed to hand Ukraine over to Putin. Meanwhile, Speaker Mike Johnson echoed this dangerous rhetoric by attempting to remove Ukraine's Ambassador to the U.S., a move we warned about during our latest Gaslit Nation political salon—straight from the Paul Manafort playbook. To help illuminate this fight, we're sharing an excerpt of a new radio play series written by David Pepper, author of Saving Democracy, called Trump's Project 2025: Up Close and Personal. In this powerful excerpt, we meet Eve, a nurse grappling with infertility, whose access to vital treatment is jeopardized by a new president's executive order banning certain fertility procedures. You can read Chapter Two of David Pepper's 2025: A Novel at davidpepper.substack.com/p/2025-a-novel-chapter-2. David will join us in this week's bonus show, out Saturday, to explain how to defeat Project 2025 in Republican hostage states.  Come As You Are Weekly Political Salons!

Leigh McGowan, aka Politics Girl, joins Gaslit Nation to discuss her heartfelt civics manifesto: A Return to Common Sense: How to Fix America Before We Really Blow It. With 41 days until Election Day, Leigh breaks down how we can seize this moment and make a real impact. The discussion includes “Kremlin cicada” Jill Stein, what to do if Trump tries another violent coup, how to hold a Harris/Walz administration accountable, and how to stop the MAGA machine from spreading chaos and disinformation in a white rage backlash that will make birtherism look like a warm-up act. While things might look like a political hellscape, Leigh's book is a hand to hold as we fight back against Russian-backed Trump and his legion of wannabe stormtroopers. It's not just about surviving the next 41 days — it's about gearing up for the long-haul battle for our democracy and the planet. This convo isn't just a podcast episode; it's a roadmap to reclaim the soul of America. Don't miss our next live-taping on October 1st at 12pm ET with investigative legend Greg Palast, who exposes America's vote suppression mafia.
