So, Trump is reelected. What next? One thing I will say, this is NOT the time to despair. This is NOT the time for fear. This IS the time to stand together against the shameful forces of bigotry that produced this sad result. A convicted felon who has proven to be a pathological liar, who uses Hitler's rhetoric and is showing signs of dementia will…

This is the broadcast that SHOULD have aired 11/3/24 at 3 pm Central, but didn't due to the technical incompetence of blogtalkradio. Donald Trump and his MAGA minions are foaming at the mouth over being called out as fascists. Tough. Donald Trump and MAGA ARE fascists. In fact, the fascism on display by the GOP of Trump has crossed over into Nazism…

Mother Jones has done an extensive series on the growing threat of Christian nationalism. This show will discuss the THEOBROS, a group of self-proclaimed ministers who preach hatred. They hate women. They hate gays. They hate democracy. Their ultimate plan is to overthrow the Constitution and create a Christian theocratic state similar to Sharia la…

Just 2 days ago, federal Judge Tanya Chutkan released the files prepared by special prosecutor Jack Smith in the election interference/insurrection case. The file had been heavily redacted earlier, but this newly released file exposed previously redacted sections. In spite of the almost 1,900 pages of evidence against Trump, the 'mainstream' aka co…

JD Vance has enjoyed a suspiciously rapid rise to power. It is unbelievable that he achieved this level of success by his own merit. Rather, JD has been the water 'boy' for tech billionaires--especially Peter Thiel. Thiel is not only known in tech circles, but also in the pro-fascist movement determined to end democratic rule. Thiel has been the ma…

JD Vance has had quite a month. He's managed to snag the VP spot, while busy pushing some of the oldest racist tropes in existence, aka the..."they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats" in Springfield, Ohio. Since Vance admitted he lied about this claim, violence against Haitian immigrants and other people of color in Springfield has run ram…

This is the episode that SHOULD have aired Sunday BlogTalk was having a breakdown. Donald Trump was once again, the target of an assassination attempt near his golf course adjacent Mar-a-lago. The would be, hapless assailant was caught in a nano second. Of course, "Trump being Trump"--he had to whine about this near miss. Now, I don't condone viole…

Corporate media has been 'carrying water' for Trump. They have been soft peddling his incompetent and dangerous record, while criticizing democrats or progressives. Until recently, the corporate media has received a 'pass' for its complicity as it assists the march to fascism. Now, multiple independent news outlets are asking the question--why is c…

The election cheats, (which the corporate media benignly dub--election 'deniers'), are at it again. Determined to steal the POTUS election of 2024, they're not worried about actually winning the vote. They're not even trying to win. No, the plan is to plant rogue election officials in place ready to deny certification of the vote. Why are they doin…

Donnie the Destroyer is a new feature on PNN. In the middle of this political season where tensions are at astronomical levels, the need for levity and humor is strong. Now, I'm sure that Trump enthusiasts will not find this little ditty 'amusing,' but their sensitivities are unimportant. Enjoy this first short episode!…

Climate justice is a hot issue, especially as we experience global climate disasters on an exponential level. There is no dispute that the fossil fuel industry has caused this climate devastation, yet the criminal polluters evade any sort of meaningful legal punishment. Instead, the criminal polluters are paid off due to a series of moronic 'trade …

Our first story is an interview conducted by Producer Emeritus Rick Spisak with noted academician Professor Wendy Lynn Lee. Our next story deals with the very real threat of violence coming from the Trump campaign, if their side loses the election. This is the "Trump Retribution Machine." Mainstream media treats these threats as the loony by-produc…

There's a cowarldy 'whisper campaign' to undermine President Biden and its being led by democratic party leaders. It was hauled into high gear after the sad debate. Apparently the likes of Pelosi, Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries and others are worried about their own political skins and are blaming Biden for their failures. These are the same politicians …

In the past several hours, the story broke that Donald Trump was shot at a campaign even in Butler, Pennsylvania. The shooter was promptly killed by the Secret Service detail protecting Trump. Contrary to the MAGA propaganda machine, the shooter WAS NOT a person of color, a member of the LGBTQ community, a liberal, or any other target MAGA has had …

This 4th of July, I will discuss how MAGA Scotus (aka Supreme Court) is single handedly destroying the last shreds of our democracy--already on life support. I will discuss multiple decisions handed down before their recess, which have a dire impact on our lives and our right to self govern. These MAGA Supreme Court Justices have elevated the nutty…
  continue reading
 
This week I will discuss how the Supreme Court or SCOTUS has manufactured an unecessary delay in the "presidential absolute immunity" case. In truth, this case should have been LAUGHED out of court. It is the very personification of a 'frivolous' case, yet the Supremes took this asinine case. I will make the case for disbarring the attorneys who br…
  continue reading
 
This week on EJR, I will discuss the enormous amount of taxpayer money going to fossil fuel companies in the form of subsidies. Reporting will include a study by the prominent medical journal, The Lancet, which will make the case for ending this taxpayer welfare to fossil fuel welfare mommas. Authors at The Lancet explain how these subsidies could …

ProPublica published an in depth investigation into the financial benefits received by multiple witnesses testifying on Trump's behalf. These financial gains were dispensed by either the Trump campaign and/or a host of Trump businesses. So far, no other outlet has reported on this alleged organized witness tampering, except ProPublica. This silence…

Donald Trump has been convicted on 34 criminal counts. If he were a poor man or a black man--he would receive prison time. Unfortunately, prison time for 'The Donald' is unlikely as corporate media keeps bleating on like brain dead sheep. One of the excuses arguing against prison time is the old bromide that 'white collar crime' is 'non-violent.' I…

Big banks are still bankrolling the fossil fuel industry. Claims coming from Wall Street that they are going 'green' are nothing but a big lie. We will speak to this ongoing public relations scam aka 'greenwashing'. That is our first story. Our second story is about another 'greenwashing' scheme, namely SMR's or Small Modular Reactors, which are sm…

This week on EJR I will discuss how climate scientists worldwide are blowing the whistle on corporate lies about global climate devastation. Many of these renowned climate scientists are plainly stating the the 1.5 degree goal was nothing but political theater as govenrment officials across the globe ignored and mocked the consensus opinions of the…
  continue reading
 
We will look at the decades old disinformation campaign sponsored by big petroleum pushing the lie that global warming is overblown, a hoax, a 'Chicken Little' panic. This campaign has lulled the public into a false sense of safety. Just like big tobacco, the petroleum industry should be held accountable for the death and destruction they have caus…

Academics and environmental justice campaigners are demanding that the International Criminal Court (ICC), begin investigating and prosecuting environmental criminals. This demand would most likely include prosecution of Big Petroleum regarding its major role in global climate devastation. In response to these demands, the ICC's chief prosecutor, K…

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) current brings warm air to the EU resulting in warmer climates than you would expect so close to the Arctic. Unfortunately it is coming closer to collapse which could result in climate disasters only seen in Hollywood epic movies. Today on the Environmental Justice Report, I will discuss this l…

This week I will discuss the treachery of conservatives on the Supreme Court. Apparently, section 3 of the 14th Amendment doesn't apply to presidents who commit insurrection. But, that's not the end of this mockery as the Trump claim of "absolute immunity'" for presidents comes next. Both cases deal with the fraud of "originalism," a doctrine that …

This week, I will be discussing the way Nazis were openly welcomed in Nashville by the GOP. Now to be fair, republican office holders did "denounce" the Nazis--but this denunciation was as credible as a hooker's exclamation that her present client is the 'best' they ever had. I will discuss the transition of GOP politics in Tennessee over the past …

This week I am going to discuss the Gish Gallop aka how to shovel BULLSHIT as fast as possible in the poltiical sphere--and how to counter it. Trump and his GOP have become experts at the art of throwing bullshit at opponents. They do it to avoid the public discovery that Trump knows NOTHING. This propaganda technique is also known as the Gish Gall…

Trump is guilty of insurrection. Period. He must be banned from holding any office ever again. This plea for sanity and justice goes far beyond Donald Trump. If Trump isn't made to face justice, his MAGA lynch mob will become bolder. So, this story will recap Trump's many crimes. It will also focus on the complicity of other republicans. Our democr…
  continue reading
 
This week on EJR, I will discuss the impending end of the Chevron Doctrine. First created to establish EPA regulatory power, the doctrine has allowed federal agencies such as the EPA to create regulations consistent with the law, while reflecting the judgement of various experts in multiple fields. It makes sense as professionals in the fields to b…
  continue reading
 
This week on PNN, I will discuss the asinine statement made by JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon, where he admonishes Trump MAGA critics. Dimon said in Davos that we shouldn't 'demonize' MAGA. Dimon then praised Trump for his alleged accomplishments. Apparently, MAGA supporters terrorizing the rest of us is little more than an inconvenience to Dimon, so I …

The first show of 2024 will focus on how the US is rapidly entering what has been termed as fascism's 'legal' phase. This is consistent with Project 2025 under the direction of the Heritage Foundation and associated groups. This fascistic evolution is particularly important as it sets the stage for future grievous injustices. I will name names and …

This show SHOULD have aired last Sunday, but BlogTalkRadio was having a 'nervous breakdown.' This episode challenges the ludicrous narrative coming from the Trump camp--the asinine idea that the president has 'absolute immunity. We will discuss the deluded and tortured argument for 'absolute presidential immunity' from criminal prosecution, its dub…
  continue reading
 
This week on PNN, I will discuss the republican attacks on voting rights. Whether you are more interested in environmental issues as opposed to voting rights, this issue affects all others. The GOP knows they can't win elections legitimately so they attack voting rights. Just a week ago, the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals based in St. Louis struck do…
  continue reading
 
This week, I will present another segment on the GOP blueprint to end democracy aka Project 2025, sponsored by the Heritage Foundation. Our big story features a republican attorney operative named Mike Davis. Davis has been on the airwaves threatening to jail, denaturalize and deport anyone who dares criticize Donald Trump, during a second Trump ad…

Last week I presented an overview of the GOP plot to subvert the last remaining shreds of democracy and pervert government into a Trumpian dictatorial hell. Sponsored by the Heritage Foundation, "Project 2025", a 1,000 page cookbook, gives detailed instructions on how to dismantle any semblance of rational government while nullifying the Bill of Ri…

This week I will discuss what has painfully become--the obvious--namely the vile bigotry of the Trump base. I refuse to entertain the excuses by some, claiming that they voted for Obama and then Trump--because of the economy and Trump's alleged business acumen. Put bluntly, Trump has NO business acumen. These milder Trump voters supported Trump bec…

This week House republicans elected a new Speaker--and he was one of the intellectual leaders of the Jan. 6th insurrection. His name is Mike Johnson and he likes to pray for people. Mike Johnson led the charge in an amicus brief demanding that the Electoral College results be tossed. He has sponsored legislation which would grant legal impunity to …

This week on PNN/EJR I will be talking about two garbage rulings coming out of what has been called–”the Trumpiest Court in America”--aka the 5th Circuit federal court. Manned by judges appointed by George W. Bush, and of course TRUMP–they have systematically attacked both free speech rights and the right to assemble–providing you are on the left–o…

This show ran last week, but Blogtalkradio somehow managed to delete the audio, so I'm running it again. Needless to say, we will be looking for another platform. I apologize to our listeners. I'm not sure if this was a 'glitch' or some not so stealthy moves by Blogtalk. In any case, I will NOT be silenced. The GOP has had a long term plot to destr…
  continue reading
 
This week on PNN, I am speaking about censorship in our K-12 schools, universities, and public libraries--all in the name of alleged 'parent rights.' The title of this week's show is "Free speech vs parent's rights--aka--democracy vs bigotry, reflects the ugly truth of the times. GOP conservatives have embraced open bigotry--now comfortable "saying…

Shawn Fain is the present UAW president and he is directing the strike in strategic ways, but Fain wasn't always the fighter he's been characterized by the corporate press. Fain is, in my opinion, fighting because former UAW presidential candidate Will Lehman is nipping at his heels. Practically every strategic move Fain is now employing came from …

Vivek Ramaswamy is the current GOP flavor of the month. Complete with both prep school and Ivy League credentials, he attempts to position himself as the anti-elitist. Some media outlets have called him 'Trump-lite' while others claim he has the Obama charm while pushing the fascist MAGA agenda. So, who is Vivek? How did he make his fortune? Is he …

The Marion County Record newspaper was raided by police a week ago by local police. There was no apparent legitimate reason for the raid, but a judge signed off on it anyway. Since the raid, major and small press outlets have cried foul, yet the damage is already done. This raid is merely the latest attack on a free press in the USA. Whether it's t…

The Biden EPA has recently approved a Chevron produced fuel ingredient that carries such a high cancer risk that it could cause cancer in anyone exposed--over a lifetime. This was reported by Propublica as part of their "Poison in the Air" series. Meanwhile, the corporate media focused on the 'horse race' between Trump and Biden--or on Hunter Biden…
  continue reading
 
While mainstream media bemoans the hottest July on record, they fail to call out the cause--namely fossil fuel. Instead the corporate stenographers mention the possibility of environmental collapse, but the story is wedged between the Biden-Trump horserace and drag shows. Young people like Greta Thunberg are hitting the streets again to demand acco…

This week on PNN, I will discuss the systemic child abuse and child reckless endangerment on the Texas border along the Rio Grande River, sponsored by Governor Greg Abbott. Governor Abbott ordered DPS (Texas Department of Public Safety) officers to push the small children and babies of migrants back into the treacherous waters of the Rio Grande Riv…
  continue reading
 
This week on EJR, I will discuss the latest updates on the WestLake Landfill/Coldwater Creek disaster in St. Louis, Mo. Multiple communities have been poisoned by nuclear waste that was illegally dumped by the US government and their corporate partners. To add further insult to injury, St. Louisans were kept in the dark regarding the nuclear threat…

Alabama governor Kay Ivey fired a top education official over a teacher training manual that mentioned 'white privilege', and 'systemic/structural racism.' This wasn't part of a curriculum taught to children, but a training manual for teachers. This illegitimate firing is merely the latest salvo in an organized attack on democracy itself coming fro…
