Progressive News Network

First, our founder Rick Spisak has an interview with guest Professor Wendy Lee on the January 6th committee investigation and the involvement of the Proud Boys.  Next, I will cover the foul decision handed down by Supreme Court religious conservatives, which overturned the Roe precedent. The implications for ALL unenumerated rights are dire.  Finally, we will have the Jackass of the Week award.  C...

EJR is back! This week I will report how the very corporations responsible for trashing the planet, are suing governments globally in a desperate attempt to kill any meaningful climate justice law. Now, both the mainstream press, (and progressive outlets like TYT with Cenck Ughur), are reporting this story as if it were a new phenomenon--it's not. This process has been in effect for years, cou...

Recently the world watched as 19 elementary school children were gunned down by a murderer with an assault weapon, while the police stood down and did nothing. Furthermore, police abused and attacked parents desperate to save their children. This Monday, a video was released that clearly showed a man drowining in an Arizona lake, pleading with police, and again--the police did nothing. A reasonabl...

This Sunday, I will report on an alt-right group in Missouri known as Liberty Alliance. This group has released a 'Woke' Map, which targets specific schools and school districts in Missouri, which are believed to be indoctrinating children in 'socialism', 'explicit sexual instruction in terms of the LGBTQ community', as well as 'grooming toddlers for sexual activity.&#3...

Within the span of a week, we have witnessed two brutal mass murders, one in Buffalo, New York, and the other in Ulvade, Texas. The mass murder in Buffalo was clearly a hate crime, with an 18 year old shooter who published a 180 page manifesto filled with racist and neo Nazi tropes. Most of the victims were elderly and black. In Ulvade, Texas we witnessed another 18 year old, enter an elementary s...

This Sunday, I will begin discussion of a report titled: Breaching the Mainstream. This report has detailed the positions and extremist ties to alt-right, white supremacist, radical insurrectionists that far too many Republican State Legislators have. This report NAMES THESE EXTREMISTS. Since the Supreme Court is determined to hand over our rights to various state level legislatures controlled by...

This week on our Sunday broadcast, we have two stories. Our founder, Rick Spisak interviewed longtime human rights activist, Meredith Ockman. Meredith has been a driving force for women's rights, Planned Parenthood, and the LGBTQ community. She is also the Chair of the Palm Beach Human RIghts Council, and an eperienced political campaign operative.  Our second story is also about the pending R...

This Sunday I will discuss the danger of the leaked Supreme Court preliminary decision on Roe v. Wade. The ramifications for all Americans are dire. Not only does a possible reversal of Roe eviscerate reproductive rights for women, but a more thorough investigation will show how many other rights could be sent to the guillotine, such as--a right to privacy. Since the right to an abortion was based...

This week's Sunday show focuses on the topic of environmental racism. Our Executive Producer and creator interviewed long time advocate Jeannie Economos from the Farmworkers Association. Economos explains how little policies have changed between the Trump and Biden administrations. The issue of environmental racism, (and increased racism in general), under DeSantis is also discussed. That is o...

This Sunday, I will focus on Florida's own federal judge Kathryn Mizelle. Judge Mizelle struck down the Biden mask mandate for all public transportation. In her 59-page decision, she ADMITS that masks... "traps virus droplets." She continued to build an argument on the idea that ..."wearing a mask cleans nothing." Apparently, the judge had difficulty with basic high school...

This Sunday, it's Easter and it's also the middle of Passover. You would think that the Christian majority would renounce the hatred, white supremacy and yes--neo Nazism coming from the GOP, run by Donald Trump, but that's not the case. In fact, white supremacy and neo Nazism has been a part of the coservative mindset for centuries. Trump has merely sanctioned the open and enthusiastic...

This week our Sunday show focuses on the confirmation vote for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson and the overt bigotry of the GOP. That is my first story. Next, I will discuss the humanitarian emergency in Ukraine as Russian troops kidnap Ukranian civilians and hold them in what can only be called prison or concentration camps. When will the president authorize a no-fly zone?  Finally, I will discuss a...

The IPCC's latest climate report card has clearly stated that we are heading towards global climate disaster unless we change our ways and end the use of fossil fuels. Period. There was no doubt about the findings. We are on a highway to Hell--literally.  Today's report will discuss the issue and ask some tough questions of our leaders--and ourselves. I have no answers, but I do know that...

This week on PNN's Sunday Show deals with Florida's own, Senator Rick Scott and his 11 Point Plan to Destroy Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. As it turns out, Florida's former governor has a criminal past involving Medicare/Medicaid fraud at a massive scale. Rick Scott was found guilty but never served time. Now, Scott and the GOP want to inflict this new level of blatant crimi...

This Sunday, I will continue the series on Donald Trump as a Russian asset. Going back to The Moscow Project, Chapter 3 is titled 'Cultivating an Asset 2009-2013, How Donald Trump became the perfect candidate for Russia's assault on American democracy.' The Moscow Project is part of an initiative of the Center for American Progress.  Our second story is about the Russian war against th...

This week, I will continue the series outlining how Trump was most likely--a Russian Asset working against the best interests of the United States. I will discuss Chapter 2 of the Moscow Project, titled "Hybrid Warfare", Russian President Vladimir Putin's strategy to undermine democracies around the world.  The title of this chapter speaks for itself.  Next, I will discuss how Russia...

Last week I discussed the dire situation in Ukraine and the possibility that Donald Trump was groomed to be a Russian asset. I reported on how Trump shared highly sensitive "code word" intelligence with the Russian ambassador and seriously began to damage our national security. Trump should have been impeached and removed from office on malfeasance alone but the GOP of Trump has decided...

This week on our Sunday show, I will discuss reports that document Donald Trump's entire career, including how he was courted by the Russians. By his own admission, the Trump organization accepted money from Russian interests for projects no legitimate bank would touch. According to these reports, it is highly possible that Trump was an 'asset' or a 'useful idiot' who leaked se...

This week, we have two big stories on our Sunday show. First, our founder and executive producer, Rick Spisak has an interview with Dr. Rebekah Jones, the scientist who was fired by Governor DeSantis. Her crime? She used geographic information system software to create a COVID dashboard for the Florida Department of Health. DeSantis wanted her to hide COVID data. She refused to falsify COVID stati...

There's a giant plume of methane gas coming from Florida. The methane dump is so large that it can be seen from satellites. The mainstream media that has covered this story is treating this event as an anomaly, a single occurrence, but that's not the truth. Methane dumps have been detected by environmentalists and scientists for some years, while the corporate media has dutifully ignored t...

This week the BIG Story deals with the COVIDIOT trucker convoys in Canada, which are now preparing to invade Kansas and Missouri, and the general level of sociopathy displayed by COVID denialist. I will also reveal the deep ties of these truckers to established white supremacist, neo-Nazi, and 'accelerationist' groups, whose only ambition is to attack minorities and destroy democracy itsel...

This week on our Sunday show, the Big Story will be about Facebook censorship using dubious fact-checking companies like AFP or Agency France-Presse. Now, normally, I actually respect AFP, but recently I was 'fact-checked' on Facebook for something I REPOSTED. It wasn't my actual posting. It originated with Dan Price. If that name sounds familiar, it should. Dan Price is the head of a...

The Supreme Court accepted a case last month that could decide the fate of the Clean Air Act--and the subsequent duty of the EPA to regulate pollution emissions. The case is West Virginia v. EPA. This case is about far more than the specific details in the complaint. This case could be the final deathblow to federal regulation of anything, due to the "nondelegation doctrine" espoused by...

This week on PNN's Sunday Show, I will discuss an undeniable fact, namely that Donald Trump must face criminal prosecution for his role in the January 6th Insurrection. There IS a case to be made, and I will present the case as made by various legal scholars including Harvard Law School Professor, Laurence Tribe. Trump cannot be allowed to walk away from this dangerous coup, mainly because he...

So, President Biden had an unfortunate 'hot mic' slip-up this week. He thought the microphone was turned off, when he called out a Fox 'News' reporter as a .."dumb son of a bitch." We have all had these private moments, and while undiplomatic--it was just plain funny because Biden said what every progressive has always known. Frankly, I'd like to see more brutally hon...
