Republicans in the Senate are threatening to follow suit with the House and repeal the President's healthcare law. Unfortunately for minority leader Mitch McConnell, he isn't in charge of the Senate - Harry Reid is. But that doesn't mean that McConnell won't try some dirty tricks to get his repeal passed.

It's Not Raining, We're Getting Peed On
Right wing talking heads on TV love to tell us how the national debt and the federal budget deficit are going to plunge both our economy and our democracy into disarray. It's an interesting talking point but it couldn't be further from the truth. The real problem facing our country is the complete and total control of our democracy by corporate interests who in the last few years have bilked our government for hundreds of billions of dollars. Mike Papantonio discusses how and why this happened and how the Republicans get away with spewing these bogus deficit talking points with Jonathan Tasini, author of the new e-book "It's Not Raining, We're Being Peed On."

Papantonio: Supreme Court Stooges

The end result of the right's influence on the US Supreme Court is rulings like Citizens' United. Mike Papantonio and Ed Schultz expose the right wing court's agenda for America on MSNBC's The Ed Show.

The Era of Mass Surveillance and State Control
RingOfFireRadio.comA lot of people assume that when President Obama took office he dismantled all of the illegal and immoral programs put in place by the Bush administration. But the truth is that he's actually expanded these programs to levels that Bush never even dreamed of. Today in America we have systems in place that allow the government to spy on almost every aspect of our lives without even thinking about obtaining a warrant to do so. Mike Papantonio talks about the mass surveillance systems that track our daily lives with Elliot Cohen, author of the new book "Mass Surveillance and State Control."

Papantonio: Obama Helps Perpetuate America's Sweatshop Capitalism
In his State of the Union address, President Obama stressed the need to create jobs in America. Unfortunately he completely ignored the massive issue of offshoring American jobs. To make matters worse, he's meeting with the US Chamber of Commerce next month - A group that helps companies send jobs overseas while reaping huge US tax breaks. He was also silent on other issues in the last year that could have bolstered American job creation. Mike Papantonio and Ed Schultz sound off on what needs to be done to bring good jobs back to America.

"This is a typical example of what happens when we run on intervention-type foreign policies. We get in the middle of these fights. We've been in the middle of this for 30 years now. We've given Mubarak $60 billion. We're responsible for a lot of the mess that is over there,""Mike Papantonio and Ed Schultz discuss the US's plan for Egypt, and why they haven't been too quick to respond to the current crisis."

The US Chamber's Litigation Machine
For years the US Chamber of Commerce has been releasing phony reports warning Americans that frivolous, junk lawsuits are clogging our court systems causing prices of insurance, consumer goods, and everything else under the sun to rise. But while they were working to keep you out of the courts they were filing dozens of lawsuits on behalf of their corporate cronies -- in fact in 2009 they averaged one lawsuit filing every 3 days. Mike Papantonio talks about why the Chamber secretly loves litigation with Linda Lipsen, the CEO of the American Association for Justice.

Papantonio: Lobbyists Already Control New GOP Congressmen
The Tea Party helped put several new Republicans in seats of power in the US Congress last year, falsely believing that people like Rand Paul would not follow the status quo and would not be influenced by lobbyists. It shouldn't come as a surprise that the Tea Party was dead wrong and their darling representatives have been busy hiring lobbyists to actually run their congressional offices. In addition to these lobbyists, we have people like David Koch pulling the strings on these new congressmen from behind the scenes. Mike Papantonio talks about the incestuous relationship between these lobbyists, billionaires, and Republicans with Lee Fang, an investigative journalist with Think Progress.org.

RFK, Jr.: Oil Industry Trying to Silence "Gasland" Director
Total duration 31:24 minutes:
The new documentary film Gasland has been nominated for an Academy Award and the oil and gas industries are working around the clock to prevent the film from winning an award. They want to keep the film out of the public eye because it exposes their dirtiest and most deceitful traits to the American public. But all of their lobbying and all of their money won't keep filmmaker Josh Fox silent and he joined Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. recently to discuss his Oscar-nominated film.

Papantonio: The Journalism of Appeasement
America's middle class is disappearing. Millions of Americans have been looking for work for more than two years with almost no hope of finding worthwhile employment so they can support their families. At the same time, we have major US corporations just sitting on trillions of dollars in cash who say that they don't want to create jobs because they are scared that the economy could crash again. And while most media outlets are either completely ignoring this issue or paying a little lip service to it, there are a few journalists out there with the guts to address what's really happening in America. Ring of Fire's Mike Papantonio speaks to one of those brave journalists -- David DeGraw, founder of the Amped Status blog.

Papantonio: The Chamber of Commerce is Spying on YOU
Recently president Obama met with the US Chamber of Commerce to talk about the best way to create jobs in America. He told them that it was their patriotic duty to spend the trillions of dollars of cash reserves that they're sitting on and create jobs. In the same breath he told them that it was his duty to make sure that the government did everything possible to make businesses more comfortable and ensure that they have the perfect climate to rebuild our economy. And the whole time that Obama was trying to become best friends with the Chamber-types they were carrying out a secret campaign to infiltrate, discredit and destroy liberal activist groups. Mike Papantonio discusses the Chamber's secret plot against progressives with Lee Fang, an investigative journalist with Think Progress who helped break the story on the Chamber.

Papantonio: Big Pharma's Lies Caused Yaz Birth Control Deaths
When politicians get caught blatantly lying to the American public it will usually destroy their image, possibly even their career. But when corporations do the same thing the public doesn't seem to care at all. This is the case with Bayer Pharmaceuticals who have lied to the American public about the dangers of their blockbuster birth control pill Yaz which has caused all sorts of serious problems for consumers, including several deaths. Not only did Bayer mislead the public about these dangers but they failed to do the necessary testing to make sure these drugs wouldn't harm their customers. Mike Papantonio discusses Yaz with Ned McWilliams, one of the attorneys who is working to hold Bayer accountable for their negligence.

Papantonio: Democrats Should Abandon The South
When Lyndon Johnson signed the civil rights Act into law he made the comment that he just cost the Democrats the South for a generation. Little did he know that Democrats would still be struggling in the South more than 50 years later. So that raises the question about what move the Democrats make now -- Do we abandon the South or do we continue to spend time and money on people who couldn't care less about democratic policies even though they depend on them more than the rest of the country. Mike Papantonio hopes to answer those questions with Mark Schmitt, executive editor of the American Prospect magazine.
