Summary
Gaslit Nation planned to take a vacation this week, to charge up our batteries. Instead, we're running a raw quick take on the Biden hysteria fueled by Rupert Murdoch and the New York Times (just like in 2016!) Why are so many in the media once again helping Trump come to power? Follow the money!
To our supporters at the Democracy Defender level and higher, get your questions in to us by this Thursday July 11 for our next mega-episode Q&A, which will cover the people-powered victories in the UK and French elections, as well as the far-right disinformation war on democracy here at home in the US.
Then join us this Thursday 8pm ET for a special live-taping of Gaslit Nation with cult expert Dr. Janja Lalich, the author of several books on the inner workings of cults and how to escape them, including Take Back Your Life. We'll be discussing the MAGA cult, the weaponization of cults, and how to help a loved one who fell down a disinformation rabbit hole. A Zoom link will go out this Thursday to our subscribers at the Truth-teller level and higher at Patreon.com/Gaslit – so be sure to get your ticket by subscribing!
Thank you to everyone who supports the show – we could not make Gaslit Nation without you!

| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone. Welcome to this super quick episode of Gaslit Nation, which I did not expect to even happen. I was trying to take this week off because the kids have summer camp. And I'm recovering from being a volunteer counselor at a summer camp for my preschooler, |
| 0:24.4 | which my two-year-old crashed. So I had two of them together while being a Haggard volunteer |
| 0:28.8 | at this camp in the Borsh Belt, in the Catskills. It was a lot of fun. I was so incredibly |
| 0:34.8 | exhausted from it. And so I'm taking a few days off to recharge my batteries |
| 0:38.6 | because we have our big live taping of Gaslit Nation this Thursday with Colt expert, Dr. |
| 0:45.4 | Yana Laylick, author of several books on how the inner workings of Colts, how to escape a |
| 0:52.5 | cult, the weaponization of Colts. |
| 0:54.6 | She's the author of several books, including Take Back Your Life. |

| 1:04.6 | And you can sign up for that. |
| 1:05.8 | I'm going to send out a Zoom link on Patreon to our subscribers at the truth teller level or hires. So you guys can join that, |
| 1:12.9 | watch that conversation, drop your questions in the chat. And to our wonderful supporters at |
| 1:17.4 | the democracy defender level or hire, get your questions in by this Thursday. I'm going to do a |
| 1:22.0 | big old monster Q&A for you all that's publishing Saturday. And yes, I'm going to answer your |
| 1:27.1 | questions in depth about the Biden panic.. And yes, I'm going to answer your questions in depth about |
| 1:28.4 | the Biden panic. And the reason why I'm posting something today, July 9th, 2024, it's not just |
| 1:35.3 | because it is my heroine Dorothy Thompson's birthday. Dorothy Thompson is the badass journalist who was |
| 1:41.9 | just extraordinary. I'll link to an interview I did with her |
| 1:44.5 | biographer in the show notes for this week, except for this little minisode. I'm doing a screenplay |
| 1:51.2 | on Dorothy Thompson. She took on Hitler. She won the war against the Tucker Carlson's of her age |
| 1:58.3 | with the power of the pen. And she is someone that I turn to often for guidance |
