Gaslit Nation has been vindicated, and it sucks to be vindicated about the deadly inertia of a mafia state accomplice! After two years of describing obvious inaction on obvious crimes and being assured by an army of bot-brained propagandists that Merrick Garland is fighting the good fight but Must Keep Silent for Reasons You Will Understand in Time, we have new confirmation that, no, he's just a terrible Attorney General! And that Lisa Monaco, the deputy attorney general, is equally bad! In this episode we discuss the Washington Post expose “FBI resisted opening probe into Trump's role in Jan. 6 for more than a year”, dig into the background of Monaco (for more background on Garland, listen to our enormous archive of treasonous complicity), and talk about what Biden should do next. Happy Pride Month! For the second part of this episode, Andrea interviews Lindz Amer who is back on Gaslit Nation to discuss their new must-read book Rainbow Parenting Your Guide to Raising Queer Kids and Their Allies. From their author bio: “Lindz Amer created Queer Kid Stuff—an award-winning original LGBTQ+ educational webseries for all ages—that has reached millions of families. They perform at libraries, schools, and theaters all over the world spreading queer joy and working on numerous projects that bring queer and trans representation into mainstream children's media. In 2019, they gave a viral TED Talk on the importance of talking to kids about gender and sexuality. They currently write for preschool television and also host the parenting podcast Rainbow Parenting, as well as Activist, You! for kids featuring interviews with youth activists.” Check out Rainbow Parenting today!   Our bonus episode is our usual Q&A of questions from Patreon subscribers at the Democracy Defender lever or higher, and is available to listeners at the Truth-Teller lever or higher. If you asked a question and we haven't answered it yet, don't worry – we are getting through the backlog this month. Sarah took a couple weeks off due to a family emergency but is back so we will both have everything answered by the end of June. Next week June 27 12pm EST will be a live-taping of Gaslit Nation featuring Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman. To sign up for that, support the show at the Truth-teller level or higher to receive a link to join the virtual event on the morning of the show!

We're back with Episode 62, Act 2: “Make Space, Give Grace,” featuring Caitlyn McCain, Teaching Artist and Education Associate for Public Engagement with New York City Children's Theater (NYCCT), and Lindz Amer, creator of the video series “Queer Kids Stuff” and author of the book, “Rainbow Parenting.” This act is packed with rich discussion about gender and the conversations happening now in legislative bodies and learning spaces across the country about how we see (or don't see) and understand (or don't understand) gender. In their chat, the second in our three-part series, “In Conversation with ‘Start the Conversation,'” Courtney, Caitlyn and Lindz cover topics like pushing back against the current wave of anti-LGBTQIA legislation on the federal and local levels, book bannings and filling the void of Queer representation in TYA. In an effort to confront all of these issues, they discuss a shared interest: developing engaging education content that invites adults to have big conversations with kids about a range of topics from LGBTQIA+ identities to the non-binary and gender spectrum.

This is not yet clear to a lot of people: in 2023, our job is to help our families, friends and neighbors survive the cultural revolution with our relationships with God healthy and intact. The Lord is with us in this, He will not leave our side if we won't keep and practice our faith. We must go back to the very basics of what God thinks, how He acts and what He prescribes for our lives and today, we talk about that. Survival is the job, the Bible has the job description. The enemy has taken too much ground for us to think otherwise and, remember, we have already won. Some of the enemy's soldiers: A so-called children's author (read: destroyer of kids) says it right out loud, the goal is to capture the minds and souls of kids from the moment they are born. This is why many of us have been screaming for people to either be in their kid's schools every single day or get their kids out of government schools. The enemy has well-funded his ruthless and shrewd human army. The NY Post is the first mainstream media outlet I have seen report on the Human RIghts Campaign, a group run by hugely rich, deeply perverted men who have made queering kids their life mission: Inside the CEI system pushing brands to endorse celebs like Dylan Mulvaney. We have been talking about these people since 2018. I have yet to hear a brave, stalwart Republican in D.C. utter the name of the Human RIghts Campaign founders, even as their work at twisting minds bares more vile fruit. Reports circulating that Kentucky shooter is bank employee with “He/Him” pronouns in bio… Kelly King, an Assistant Superintendent in Glendale CA Unified is deeply concerned about male coaches watching teenage girls undress in the locker rooms. When I say “concerned”, I mean Kelly is comcerned and upset that male coaches DO NOT WANT to have teenage girls undressing in front of them. Kelly explains she tells these men, over-and-over-and-over again about these naked girls “It's not a girl! It's not a girl. It's not a girl!” A father addressed this at a school board meeting. Guess how the board responded . . . What does God say? 2 Timothy 3:1-17 But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people. ...Colossians 2:8-23 See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority. In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead.Author & Host of Rainbow Parenting. Creator of @queerkidstuffMeet Kelly King, Asst. Superintendent in Glendale CA Unified. “We have male coaches who are horrified at the thought of having a biological girl changing clothes in front of them… It's not a girl. It's not a girl. It's not a girl. You only have boys in the boys locker room.”Jordan Henry, the father who spoke out against Kelly Keing actively working to queer kids. “Last night I spoke at Glendale Unified against Kelly King who admits to forcing female students to change in front of male coaches. The board tried and failed to shut me down by accusing me of attacking King personally, even though King clearly violates the personal privacy of minors and families. These people will defend the unethical actions of a corrupt government employee while silencing the voice of concerned parents, all in the name of inclusivity. Remember, Kelly King makes $250k+ per year while GUSD has abysmal math and reading proficiency. See her proudly admit to each issue I raised in my tweet below.

When I was a kid, nobody talked to me at all about queer people, except maybe to tell me that they were sinful and going to hell. I don't think I really even started to learn about queerness in any way other than the negative until I was in high school. And even then, it wasn't exactly what I would call affirming. And I know my experience isn't uncommon.Times have really changed when it comes to the acceptance of the queer community by the dominant cishet society that we live in in the U.S. and it has opened to door to having conversations with kids about queerness and gender much earlier and in a much more positive way.The problem is because so few of us parents had a positive introduction to this, there are lots of questions about when and how to start these conversations with our kids.We need resources for talking to kids about queerness.And that's where today's guest comes in.Lindz Amer (they/them) is the founder and CEO of Queer Kids Creative, a digital entertainment company spreading queer joy and queer-focused intersectional, all-ages media. They wrote, produced, and co-hosted Queer Kid Stuff, an original LGBTQ+ educational web series for ages three and up, for four season and over 50 episodes. They continue to perform QKS music and stories at schools, museums, libraries, and local LGBTQ+ centers all over the country.They also produce and host a family-friendly podcast called Activist You, where they explore social justice topics through interviews with kids and youth activists.
