FACT: If not for a pardon from President Richard Nixon, John McCain would have been court-martialed for treason.#CNNTownHall pic.twitter.com/ncXjQWRvmW. â America First!

Progressivism was the reform movement that ran from the late 19th century through the first decades of the 20th century, during which leading intellectuals and social reformers in the United States sought to address the economic, political, and cultural questions that had arisen in the context of the rapid changes brought with the Industrial Revolution and the growth of modern capitalism in America.
progressive era refers to a period of time in our nations history. It also even used to be a political party, participating in the 1912, 1916, 1924 and 1948 elections(could be more dont remember atm). specifically it is the period of time around the end of the 19th century and american entry into World War I.
