Cenk and Iadarola hosting. The Canadian elections are happening today, where PM Stephen Harper may be on his way out. Donald Trump started a firestorm with Jeb Bush when he brought up the fact that W. didn’t keep us safe while he was president. Video of Trump’s original statement where the Bloomberg interviewer challenged his assertion. Videos of Jeb defending George, claiming that no one thinks 9/11 was his fault. Video of Jake Tapper bringing up Jeb’s hypocrisy in blaming Hillary for Benghazi, but not blaming George for 9/11. Fox & Friends had Trump on to dissuade him from making points about how badly GW Bush handled 9/11. Video of their attempts to blame someone else.

Bernie Sanders is planning a major speech on Democratic Socialism since so many opponents have characterized it as evil. The numbers of people that view the term Socialism as a positive term has grown, while the number that view Capitalism as positive has dwindled. A Republican Congressman from Alabama has declared that he wants to impeach Hillary Clinton before she even gets the Democratic nomination. Now that Marvel has made Captain America a Black man and fighting anti-immigrant bigots, Fox and Friends has lost their mind over it. Video of the panel lamenting the decision by the comic book.

  1. I love how when Cenk brings up “Man In Black” (the Johnny Cash song), John makes a reference to “Men In Black” and they end up basically having two different conversations at the same time. It appears John has a “no conversations about music when I’m around!” policy…

  2. Not working on Chromecast… Very Important feature to be crashing every 2 seconds. Great show just won’t cast from mobile only from desktop.

      1. It always feels like nails on a chalk board for me when Cenk pronounces certain words, for example, I have never heard ‘bury’ pronounced ‘burry’ from anyone else,

        You can even google the correct way to pronounce the word ‘bury’ and is it described as [ˈberē].

  3. John: “… protect you from Russian tanks”?

    USA have never been under such threat. John is doing ORWELLIAN fearmongering on this issue.

  4. Damnit, Cenk, John, and even Bernie doesn’t even know what democratic socialism is. What Bernie is advocating for is social democracy. Social democracy is a mixed economy with a strong welfare state. Democratic socialism is the public control over the means of production, but in a democratic manner rather than an authoritarian manner.

  5. They should’ve spent 2 more minutes on the Fox and Friends piece and busted out a TYT throwback clip from like 08′ or 09′ when Cenk and Ben covered Clinton telling a Fox news reporter “At least I tried… and all the conservatives saying I didn’t do enough now, were telling me I was too focused on Bin Laden back then”

  6. “You think you’re coming for me but you better watch out because if I win i’m coming for you.
    You’ve mistaken me for someone who’s threatened by you. I am the threat. I’m the one who
    knocks”. Damn Cenk, that gave me chills!!! You really should be a speech writer. No way Hilary would actually say anything close to that but what do you expect. Sounds like something Frank Underwood would say looking into camera!
