Cenk hosting today. It has been reported that Chuck Todd will be replacing David Gregory on Meet the Press. Cenk remembers his prediction that David Gregory would be out at MTP. The Ukrainian government is making advances against the pro-Russian government in the eastern part of the country. Due to these developments, it is possible that Russia will launch a war against Ukraine. Sarah Palin’s video posted to her pay-for-play channel was a response to Elizabeth Warren. Her rebuttal to min wage increases for fast food workers was incoherent. The Koch Brothers made a push to appeal to Latino citizens with care packages filled with pamphlets of policy suggestions that were framed as helpful, but actually would hurt their interests. Steven Seagal performed in Crimea with his Blues band as he is a great friend of Putin. The divisive president of Iraq has exacerbated the divisions of the country, so a man named Al-Abadi is being propped up to take his place by the American government due to his Western grooming and schooling. Hillary Clinton weighed in on the attack on ISIS and criticized Obama’s handling of the situation. Now that President Obama has launched attacks on ISIS in Iraq, he’s catching criticism from multiple Conservatives like McCain, Graham, and Peter King as well, claiming that he’s approaching the situation with pure weakness, which will lead to American cities being attacked by ISIS. Laura Ingraham pointed out that Iraq is worse than it was before we went in.

  2. The Koch brothers are so evil, so horrific, that I can’t even stand to watch TYT when their picture appears.

    Idk if it’s because of the anger, frustration, their evil, annoyance, or what. I have no idea why, I just can’t stand to look at their pics because of how they are the epitome of pure corrupted evil.

  3. Cenk doesn’t know the difference between president of Iraq (Masoum) and Prime Minister of Iraq (Maliki) yet has the audacity to claim experties and issue judgements.

    Typical.

  4. Less important thing, but still: unlike Google, Apple does not “outsource” its intellectual property rights to off-shores, nor it moves money that were earned in USA out there. This is why Apple is #1 tax payer in the USA.

    Apple, however, does refuse to move money that were earned abroad back to USA. But this behavior is nothing like two previous tricks that are used by others.

  5. BEING IN THE BUBBLE OF WESTERN MEDIA PROPAGANDA, Cenk does not report the fact that civilians are dying from the shelling by Ukraine forces — at places that are many miles away from the front line, where actual fighting goes on. Even Human Right Watch admits it, but it never gets reported.

    From this Orwellian picture, Cenk derives wrong conclusion like Russia directly entering the scene is a bad thing. In reality, the massacre, done by USA’s puppet regime in Ukraine (see Wikileaks on that), would stop.

    But Putin’s plan was never to intervene directly in mainland Ukraine in the first place. So all DOZENS of times NATO and illegal Ukraine’s “government” said “Russia is coming” were false fearmongering, and Cenk never got that and reports this propaganda on face value.

    Also, the conclusion that rebels lose soon is wrong, too. In recent weeks, they have surrounded 5500 Ukrainian troops in the south of the region and captured about 90 units of heavy weaponry. They are now fixed, and ready to advance.

    Besides, Putin would not allow rebels being subjugated to illegal power of Kiev’s regime (remember that criminal corrupt oligarch Porshenko, USA’s “insider”, was “elected” to non-vacant position. People of South-East did not vote for him, he does not represent their interests at all).

    1. are you sure you aren’t one of Putins Internet Propaganda spreading Troll Army that was discovered recently?

      I know cenk does propaganda _sometimes_ but it is only to serve him and not often, he still largely reports the truth to the best of his ability.

      1. Are are you sure you aren’t one of CIA/Step Internet Propaganda spreading Troll Army that was discovered by Wikileaks?

        As I mentioned, Cenk is in Western propaganda bubble. So his ability to report truth is limited.

  6. I’m from San Antonio and Kock bros have already impacted our cities transportation plan in an effort to keep SA highly dependent on cars/trucks

    1. I heard about them doing that. Those Kock bros are Bat Man Villain evil. The kind of ppl who do terrible things that don’t even make logical sense. Like destroying the planet they also live on.
