Jeanine Molloff with The Justice Report.

A new study has documented the formal collusion between racist police and corporate polluters--especially in the fossil fuel industry. Add to that toxic sludge--a gaggle of Wall Street bankers and you have the makings of a coup. For many years, corporate polluters and investment banks have 'contributed' heavy sums of money to 'Police Foundations." What may look like philanthropy on the surface is in reality a type of collusion that links these big money actors to the very police abuse we are now witnessing on our streets. It turns out that "Occupy" was right.

Progressive News Nework is branching out. We have too much news to cover on Sunday so we're adding a weekly PNN EXTRA to examine health in the time of Covid and other lifestyle stories. This week with Kartik Krishnaiyer on Covid news, and Pat and Joy with their new book, the Yas Kween Chronicles.

AS Democratic Party racked up missteps today, we talk to activist Victor Tiffany to get the skinny about a pair of marches aimed at helping the party find its way through a series of unforced errors.

The party is morbidly out of touch as 88% of Democrats support Medicare for All (68% of Independents, and even 46% of Republicans support it). Yet 76% of the DNC platform committee voted AGAINST adding Medicare for All during a pandemic that threatens to make The Great Depression seem like 70s stagflation. Also, 67% of Americans and 78% of Democrats support marijuana legalization and the platform committee voted to oppose it 67% to 31%. There's no excuse for this. 

August 1 the Movement for a People's Party has organized a march to pressure the Dem party to move left to GOTV base voters. Rejecting decriminalization of marijuana and Medicare for All are massive facepalm moment at a time when we should be crushing it. It's lunacy that instead of supporting our soon-to-be-homeless citizenry, the Dems have suggested we fund legal aid so lawyers can fight it out with landlords. This helps no one, and there's reasonable explanation for it when Congress and the White House have given away more than 4 TRILLION to corporations with nothing to show for it in return. 

August 8 there is a second "March To Replace Biden," which aims to send the message that we need to replace Joe Biden with someone (anyone!) who can actually win the election. The alternative is likely 4 more years of Trump.

Brook Hines with The Weekly Beat.

The Environmental Justice Report with Jeanine Molloff is dedicated to doxxing environmental criminals and their enablers. The premier episode dealt with the overhaul of the Magna Carta of Environmental law--namely NEPA. This week the discussion will center on the systemic criminalization of environmental protests. All over the nation, corporate fronts like ALEC--aka the American Legislative Exchange Council have worked feverishly to take the most benign of misdemeanor offenses and convert them into felonies with long jail sentences--with no legitimate justification for this change.

Brook Hines reports on a bizarre no-bid contract that buries US Covid data. 

Rick Spisak with Wendy Lyn Lee on re-opening schools.

Jeanine Molloff has Ferguson's Rev Darryl Gray to talk about Trump's escalation of violence. Rev Gray has challenged the political status quo in St Louis which supports institutional racism. He has led many of the protests targeting police violence against the Black community.

This is the Premier episode of The Environmental Justice Report with Jeanine Molloff, which will serve as a watchdog--no a pitbull--warning against environmental crimes against humanity and the planet. For too long, the corporate world has 'greenwashed' various actions in order to disguise their crimes. None of us can turn on a television or stream online without being deluged with commercials by entities such as the fossil fuel industry, (for example), claiming they're good stewards of the planet as they tout the ludicrous claimt that they produce 'clean' energy. This show aims to expose the half-truths, technical omissions, and plain lies of polluting industries and their political enablers.
