We are less than two months away from the 2024 Election. This Election season is a bit different, because rather than voting for separate political parties, we're voting for two systems: democracy and autocracy (specifically, a Christian Nationalist theocracy). Autocratic governments tend to rely on disinformation, propaganda, repression of voter rights, and fear-mongering in order to develop their power. The 2024 Republican Party is no different. A lot has been written about how the public can ethically respond, and quite frankly, there aren't a lot of great answers for the next 6 months, other than voting en masse. We know responses that make it worse. Name-calling and blaming, while potentially cathartic, only entrench the polarization. Communicating around social identity ("White people do ____." Women think ____.") reinforces the stereotypes that progressivism attempts to reject. From now until Election Day, we will be releasing a series called "How to Do Social Justice Without Being a Jackass." We'll talk with our guests about how to hold our anger and fear without responding in dehumanizing ways. In our introduction episode, we talk about: What does Jackass-dom mean? Deconstruction as a Political Process Responding to Hate A Relational Health Approach Behavior v. Values Moral Superiority We'll also close with some specific Relationship 101 tips. Check out How to Do Social Justice This Election Season Without Being a Jackass: An Intro on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
In the last two presidential elections about 8 in 10 evangelicals voted for Donald Trump, but can Kamala Harris steal some of those votes in 2024? We discuss the recent “Evangelicals for Harris” call and why it's so difficult to get Christians to think more theologically about politics. Ed Stetzer argues that abortion should still be a top priority when voting, and Tyler Huckabee says we should be uncomfortable endorsing any candidate. Then, Skye talks to New Testament professor, Dr. Gary Burge, about the ongoing Israeli/Palestinian conflict, and what the Bible really says about Israel's claim on the Holy Land. 0:00 - Intro 1:30 - Show Starts and Kaitlyn's Opinion on Vacations 4:53 - Theme Song 5:16 - Sponsor - Go to https://www.fromourplace.com and use code HOLYPOST to get 10% off site wide on beautiful cookware! 6:21 - Sponsor - Blueland - Get up to 15% off your first order by going to https://www.BlueBlueland.com/HOLYPOST 12:21 - Discussing the Evangelicals for Harris Call 21:08 - Jemar Tisby and Thick vs Thin Theology 29:03 - Ed Stetzer and the Umpire Analogy 33:30 - Which Party is Better for the Pro-Life Movement? 43:40 - Phil's TwiXter on Watching Political Conventions as a Nonpartisan 48:14 - Sponsor - Faithful Counseling - This episode is sponsored by Faithful Counseling.

This Election 2023 Super Special opens with a discussion on building unions, because the big takeaway is grassroots power is the most reliable power we have left. In a time of historic income inequality, which furthers the flames of fascism, we need to extend the Big Blue Wave energy into the growing rebirth of unions. Political and economic justice go hand-in-hand. For our Patreon community, there's a deep dive on the election, and a special call to action for those who support the show and make Gaslit Nation possible. Thank you all so much! If you would like to hear the full episode, get all episodes ad free, join our community of listeners, and so much more, subscribe to support our independent journalism at Patreon.com/Gaslit. With all the important races this year, we strategically set our sights on one goal: denying Youngkin a Republican majority in Virginia. Together we exceeded our expectations: we held the Senate, flipped the House, and helped elect the first trans woman to the Virginia state senate, and put Youngkin's political future in doubt. There were headlines like this one from Politico following his major election night losses: “Glenn Youngkin's white knight era is over.” We supported grassroots infrastructure that could lead to Virginia being called early again on election night like it was in 2020. Sister District, the grassroots group we partnered with, made 43-percent of its candidates phone calls, and our Gaslit Nation phone bank with them was their largest to date of this election. Thank you to everyone who did whatever you could wherever you are. We're going to get through this dangerous crossroads together. What's clear is that the grassroots communities that formed in the original 2018 Blue Wave are still active. Now we need to help expand that energy into economic justice. That's why this Election 2023 Special opens with an interview featuring longtime Gaslit Nation listener Brock Madden speaking with Jasmine Leli, the Buffalo, N.Y.-based Starbucks barista and member of Starbucks Workers United. Based in Seattle, Brock is looking to organize other restaurant workers like him to unionize. If you want to start a union and don't know how or where to start, this discussion will inspire you to take action, no matter how small at first. Thank you to Jasmine and Brock for this important conversation.

The Moral Issues Involved in This Election
Today is the eve of the 2022 midterm elections and so we spend time on how some of the news has been shifting to accurately reflect how badly Joe Biden is governing, while others continue to prop him up as a poor bystander. I open with a piece by Charles C. W. Cooke addressing the sheer stupidity of a NYTimes piece where they re-write history (or just simply ignore reality) and cast the President as an affable leader who had hoped the country would be magically united now that President Trump is no longer in the White House. The assumptions we mock appear early in the NYTimes. According to the piece entitled, "As Midterms Near, Biden Face a Nation as Polarized as Ever," Biden is said to have confided he expected the "fever of polarizing politics to have broken by now." He says he had envisioned a presidency where he presided over a moment of reconciliation and that if he could just govern well, everything would work out. Ladies and gentlemen, do we need more evidence of an addled Commander-in-Chief and a more complicit Legacy/mainstream media in creating and propagating sheer volumes of apologist propaganda? First, to assume Biden has done nothing to add to the polarization is to ignore recent events, let alone his entire presidency to-date. Second, how does anyone expect to preside over a moment of reconciliation when they call half of the American electorate enemies of the state? And third, what in the world leads Biden or anyone in the press to conclude he has "governed well"?! It's preposterous just given the state of the economy, our security and the energy crisis, let alone our disastrous foreign policy. On the flipside, the Washington Post waited until the day before the midterms to print an honest analysis of the Biden Administration. Today's headlines from the WaPo reads, "A Bottomless Pinocchio for Biden – and other recent gaffes." Those stories should have been written on an almost daily basis had the Legacy/Mainstream media been interested in doing their jobs as journalists. Only a day before the election do they try to pretend they have been honest about all of the lies, missteps and gaffes of this aged president. Yahoo News jumps on the "we have no idea" bandwagon with a story entitled, "Pollsters Have 'No F*cking Idea What's Going to Happen' This Election. The net of this story is pollsters are lucky to get 1% of respondents to answer their questions, so their "assumptions" have to get bigger and bigger to make up for less and less participation. Big shock how no one, especially on the Right, wants to waste their time speaking to a pollster. Going back the other way, Reuters Fact Check tried to cover for Joe Biden's lie about getting his political start at an HCBU when he we pandering to another audience. Their "fact check" starts with a re-write of what Joe Biden said, thus having to create a falsehood before being able to help Biden with his lie. Over the weekend, Joe Biden reminded a crowed in Pennsylvania that he was going to shut down all of the coal mines across the country. To make sure we remind you this isn't a gaffe, I play a montage of all the times he has declared war on fossil fuels and his desire to put them all out of business. In an effort to fix the damage Biden did, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre put out a statement trying to do damage control, but all she managed to accomplish is to confirm Biden's own promise. His exact words when talking about coal mining? "We're going to be shutting these plants down all across America." No matter how you try to tap-dance, sidestep or lie, it's very hard to pretend that isn't the position of this Eco-terrorist agended White House. Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) demanded an apology from Joe Bide, which is laughable. The guy who bought the lies of his own party to sign off on the Inflation Reduction Act wants to act outraged that the promise in that bill to shut down mining is being carried out by the President. He can pretend to be disgusted, but he had the ability to stop it from happening and chose to go along instead. Finally, in another speech, we get a very interesting slip of the tongue from President Biden. When addressing their faux belief in man-made climate change, Biden accidentally says, "I know you all know there's no climate problem." He then says he knows forest fires in the west "just happen." We shall see how tomorrow goes. I'm betting an easy changeover of the House and a 53 to 55 Republican seat in the Senate. But, if multiple states have the GOP winning, don't be surprised if those states have unexplained issues and will need "days and days" to find, I mean, count all the votes.

Book Vs. Movie The ButlerThe 2008 Washington Post Article Vs the 2013 Lee Daniels FilmThe Margos go into the history of Eugene Allen, a waiter, and butler who worked for the White House for 34 years before retiring in 1986. Allen severed for several Presidents and ended his service with the Ronald Reagan administration. He and his wife Helene were invited by the Reagans to a state dinner (the first time ever for a butler.)After serving every President between Dwight D. Eisenhower to Reagan, he had plenty of stories to share with reporter Wil Haygood in his 2008 Washington Post article “A Butler Well Served by This Election.” The Butler (2013) by Lee Daniels takes some liberties with the origins of Allen's real-life story by changing the character's name to Cecil Gaines with the lead played by Forest Whitaker with a celebrity-filled cast including Oprah Winfrey, Mariah Carey, John Cusack, and Jane Fonda just to name a few of the actors. So, between the original story and the adaptation--which did we prefer?
