Episode description

Are you a voter in New York City or know someone who is? We need your voice! Indicted Mayor Eric Adams—who, like Trump, also loves foreign bribes—pushed through ballot measures two through six that centralize more power in the mayor’s office. This consolidation risk comes at a time when we must remain vigilant against rising autocracy, especially given New York's rich history as a sanctuary for resistance, from the abolitionist movement to standing up to Trump. Be sure to vote YES on ballot measure one, which enshrines reproductice healthcare, LGBTQ rights, and more in our state constitution, and vote NO on ballot measures two to six.

To help us navigate Adams' gaslighting and strategize ways to overcome America's oligarchy crisis is Jasmine Gripper, co-state director of the New York Working Families Party. Before you head to the polls, don’t miss this important interview! Be sure to vote along the Working Families Party line, especially since disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo raised the threshold for third parties to appear on the ballot.

Look out for a new Gaslit Nation out tonight featuring the chilling insights of Dr. Bandy Lee on Trump contagion and how it spreads the cult of violence that turned Germany into a dictatorship in just six months.
