The Progressive Record is where politics gets the analysis it deserves. Every week, host Keith cuts through the noise of the 24-hour news cycle to deliver the stories that matter most examined from the ground up, held to the highest standard of accountability, and connected to real action you can take. From healthcare policy and voting rights to foreign policy and economic inequality, The Progressive Record doesn't just report what happened. It investigates who made it happen, who benefits, who gets hurt, and what we can do about it. This isn't just commentary. It's a record and the record

    Episode 3 - Power at the Ballot Box

    Six months. That's what stands between us and the most consequential midterm election in a generation. On November 3rd, 2026, every House seat and 35 Senate seats will be decided. In Episode 3, host Keith breaks down exactly what's at stake, how the playing field has already been tilted — through redistricting, voter roll purges, and the aftermath of the Supreme Court's Voting Rights Act ruling — and where the progressive wave is rising to fight back. Democracy doesn't defend itself. This episode is about what you can do right now.

    Episode 2 - The Dreamer Betrayal

    505,000 people did everything the government asked of them. They came forward. They passed background checks. They renewed every two years. They built lives, raised families, paid taxes, and trusted the system. Now that system is hunting them. In Episode 2, host Keith tells the full story of DACA — from its origins in Congress's 25 years of failure, to the new BIA ruling that strips deportation protections, to the human cost of what's happening right now inside ICE detention centers.

    EPISODE 1: "STATE OF THE RECORD"

    "State of the Record" The Progressive Record launches with three stories the mainstream media didn't give nearly enough outrage. In this debut episode, host Keith breaks down how Medicaid work requirements are already stripping coverage from working Americans, how the Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act in a historic 6-3 ruling, and how Congress has allowed an undeclared war with Iran to pass its legal deadline without a single authorizing vote. This is what Analysis. Accountability. Action. looks like.
