If you think the attack on the Wisconsin teacher unions is an isolated incident then you need to think again. Republican governors and politicians across America are preparing for an all out war against unions and union workers in order to protect their corporate backers like the Koch Brothers. But as we've seen in Wisconsin, union workers will not go down without a fight, a message that President Obama could certainly learn a valuable lesson from. Mike Papantonio analyzes the war against unions with Larry Hanley, the president of the Amalgamated Transit Union.

Papantonio: White Collar Criminals in America Rarely Go To Prison
Out of the dozens of fat cat Wall Street firms in America -- no one went to jail when they virtually stole trillions of dollars from our economy with schemes involving CDOs, synthetics, and swaps. Our Department of Justice has made it clear that America has a white collar class of Wall Street and corporate criminals who operate with an immunity protection -- They are a gaggle of silk suit criminals who know that they have special protections in this country. The same country where an 18 year old can be sentenced to life in prison on a drug charge.

Papantonio: What A Strong Progressive Should Look Like
A lot of progressives in America are more than irritated about the lack of strong progressive leaders in Washington. They've become disillusioned with Obama for bowing to the right wing instead of standing up and fighting like he promised he would. But there is still some hope in Washington. Congressman Bruce Braley is leading the charge against the Tea Party Republicans with his House Populist Caucus and he spoke with Mike Papantonio recently about what it takes to be a strong progressive leader in politics today.

RFK, Jr.: Science Shows That Autism -- Mercury Link Exists
Total duration 39:05 minutes:
Studies show that autism rates have increased by more than 300% over the last few years with as many as one in every 110 children now being diagnosed as autistic. But even as the rates are reaching epidemic proportions, doctors and scientists are still completely oblivious as to the cause of this disease. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. discusses the causes that the pharmaceutical industry wants us to believe are not true with Dr. Boyd Haley, Professor Emeritus at the University of Kentucky.

Papantonio: Triangulation Won't Work for Obama
When Obama took office most progressives expected an FDR-type president who would enact transformational policies to help put the country back on track. But what we got instead was a mixture of Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan that has left both progressives and republicans begging for change. Now that we're stuck with a GOP majority in the House, the question on everyone's mind is whether we can expect more Clinton-type compromise from Obama or will he completely surrender the rest of his term to the Republicans? Mike Papantonio discusses the possibilities facing the president this year with Ari Berman, author of the new book "Herding Donkeys: The Fight to Rebuild the Democratic Party and Reshape American Politics."

RFK, Jr. - The Tea Party's Downfall
The Tea Party loves to wrap themselves in the Constitution of the United States but if you look beyond their displays of phony patriotism you'll see that most Tea Partiers actually want to rip the Constitution to shreds. They despise the fact that the Constitution grants citizenship status to the children of illegal immigrants and they've even suggested that we limit the right to vote to only people who own property. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. talks with Michael Waldman, the executive director of the Brennan Center for Justice, who says that the Tea Party's love for the Constitution could be the thing that finally tears them apart.

Papantonio: Republicans Say Let's Kill Immigrants Like Wild Pigs
Andrew Carnegie used to give speeches about how every large organization takes on the true heart, mind, and true personality of the key leaders of that organization. In the past 3 weeks Republican leaders from Kansas to New York have given us a glimpse of their heart, mind, and true personality. One Republican leader told us that physically and mentally disabled Americans are worthless and should be murdered or sent to Siberia to die by freezing to death. Another leader well-respected by his fellow Republicans made the statement that "immigrants should be shot from helicopters like wild hogs." After this Republican visionary made the statement that we should murder immigrants like we kill wild pigs he told the media that he was just speaking like any person from Southwest Kansas would speak and that what he said really wasn't controversial. And you know what -- I believe that within the new Teabag Republican Party a statement like that would not be considered controversial at all.

Papantonio: GOP's Union Busting is Theft
The GOP's assault on organized labor has been taking place for decades in America and only recently has the story managed to make the headline news. And the story goes way deeper than what's happening in Wisconsin. The GOP is actively trying to keep working class Americans living in poverty just so their corporate masters can add a few extra dollars to their bottom lines. Make no mistake -- their union busting efforts are just a new tool in their ongoing class war. Mike Papantonio discusses the GOP's plan with Joshua Holland, an investigative journalist with Alternet.

Papantonio: What Happened to the Wall Street Prosecutions?
The crook Bernie Madoff has been back in the news recently and he isn't shy about pointing fingers at the banks for their compliance in his massive Ponzi scheme that bilked investors out of billions of dollars. According to Madoff, these banks HAD to have known that what he was doing was illegal. If he's correct, this could have serious implications on the financial industry and that's why Mike Papantonio spoke with attorney Peter Mougey who has taken on some of the biggest financial institutions in America -- companies that have lied, cheated, and stolen from honest Americans and helped create the financial meltdown in the United States.

Papantonio: Right Wing Militias Gaining Power in America
Last year we were inundated with stories about violent right wing extremists fighting against immigrants, fighting against the government, and some who just wanted to fight against an African American in the White House. The anti-government extremist groups are clearly on the rise in America and in 2010 they managed to once again grow their membership numbers. Mike Papantonio discusses why this happened with Mark Potok from the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Papantonio: Sorry GOP, Libya Won't Hurt Obama in 2012
Most Americans support the US's limited involvement in Libya so why do conservatives think that this is going to prevent him from being re-elected? Obama has taken the anti-Bush approach in the situation and Americans are pleased so far. But, as Mike Papantonio points out on Fox Business's Follow The Money, this issue can only effect Obama if he gets us involved in another endless war.

Papantonio: Ford CEO Gets $60 Million Payday, Workers Get Pay Cut
Union members made some serious concessions when the American automotive industry was tanking, and in return, they expected management to do the same. It turns out that Ford's CEO Alan Mulally received a $60 million bonus this past year, as the average auto worker was making less than $20 an hour. Mike Papantonio appears on Fox Business's Follow The Money to discuss the issue.

Ed Schultz: Fox Attacks MSNBC For Supporting the President
Bill O'Reilly is a little angry with MSNBC because they gave Obama credit for handling the situation in Libya like a professional. He doesn't believe that a network should support a president... But as Ed Schultz points out, Fox was beating the drum for war in Iraq and even allowed Cabinet members to come on their shows and pitch the war.

Papantonio: Libya and the Whiny Republicans
The conservatives seem to be torn over whether they want a war in Libya or whether they want a BIG war in Libya. The only thing they can agree on is that they don't want Obama handling it. Mike Papantonio and Ed Schultz fire back at the flip-flopping GOP over their ridiculous hatred of Obama and everything he does.

Papantonio: If Obama Sells War, Americans Won't Buy
President Obama is scheduled to speak to the nation tonight and experts are predicting that he is going to attempt to sell the public on a war in Libya. But as Mike Papantonio points out on The Ed Schultz Show, the American public is already suffering from "war fatigue" and won't support US troops hitting the ground in Libya.

Papantonio: Conservatives Want to Drill Our Way to Energy Independence
In spite of last year's oil geyser in the Gulf of Mexico, conservatives are pushing harder and harder for Obama to let them drill for oil in American waters and basically anywhere else in the country where they think they can get an ounce of oil. But as Mike Papantonio points out on Fox Business's Follow The Money, we will never be energy independent if we don't invest in renewables.
