  1. Randy Bryce IS FAKE !
    I hope all you people realise that he will go along with everything the dems ask him too!
    He is not a progressive he is a consultant managed actor to sell to useful idiots!
    Write this down because you are about to get disappointed!

  2. Seriously? Why do establishment centrist Dems not punch left against Bryce? How did he unify the party?

    Looks like a trap, smells like a trap …

    Randy Bryce is in a primary against ANOTHER progressive, Cathy Meyers is not only for Single Payer but she knows about how to answer ‘where the money will come from’. Randy Bryce has never faced tough questions … he wont even debate a Democrat …

    He has no desire to win his spot within the marketplace of ideas … how does a one sided interview like this help our cause if we silence the fact HE IS EVEN IN A PRIMARY AGAINST ANOTHER PROGRESSIVE!!??

    What happens when he has to debate Ryan and has no experience? What happens when he gets to DC and has no history of actually fighting for constituents?

    Justice Democrat? Randy Bruce might end up being a tool we plead with to be progressive AFTER they win …

  3. I love this whole movement, and have given to JD several times. However, I LOVE the music you play during the intros :D I can’t finds it on Shazam, though- can anyone tell me what it’s called and who it’s by?

    Thanks.

  4. ILOVE IT!
    I just donated to the Iron Stash!
    Paul Ryan can not police the Moostashe!

    And I’m going to work with Jerry Perez this Saturday for Alison !!

  5. Cenk, you really need to have Dr. Stephanie Kelton on the show. Whenever we talk about Medicare for All or tuition-free college or other progressive initiatives, the biggest obstacle we encounter is, “how you gonna pay for that?”

    Stephanie Kelton has an answer to that challenge and it is one that EVERY PROGRESSIVE NEEDS TO KNOW.

    Kelton was a senior economic advisor to the Bernie Sanders 2016 campaign, and is now a Fellow at the Sanders Institute. She is an expert on MMT – Modern Monetary Theory.

    MMT is incredibly important. It explains why deficits really don’t matter, and it explains how congress can vote for an extra $80 billion for defense while cutting social spending. MMT provides the BEST defense against GOP attacks on entitlements and other programs, and MMT provides the answer to finding large government projects such as health care, education, infrastructure, etc.

    PLEASE ask Dr. Kelton to come to Rebel HQ. https://twitter.com/StephanieKelton

  6. I’m surprised Rebel HQ is behind a paywall when this is a great video to share to people the areas that will vote for the candidates.

    I like to go to the State’s subreddit and share the video to get eyes on a candidate people may not even be aware of.

    Can we put these straight to YouTube or at least bring it from behind the paywall and link it to TYT. It actually may drive unique traffic to TYT’s website.

    2. kylepezz – The videos are available on youtube under the TYT Politics channel. If you go in to the playlists, there is one specifically for Rebel HQ. I’m not sure how long it takes for them to be uploaded, but they are there.

  9. Alison seems to have a much more confident attitude this time around. Picking up all the endorsements will do that, but it’s very nice to see her starting to believe just how possible her victory is!

  10. Allison,
    “When we talk about them not having a spine….” —> “When we talk about their not having a spine….”

    Cenk
    “We’re not afraid of you looking at Allison’s policies.” -> “We’re not afraid of your looking at Allison’s policies.”

    “…leads to us being able to hire…” -> “…leads to our being able to hire…”

  11. Unless we figure out how to take social security payments to go back down to pre-reagan levels and get the money back that’s also not re-paid, wage raises will unfairly tax workers and truly small business. We can’t keep raising base lines without lowering the percentage taxed.

    1. Please explain how wage rises “tax” workers and truly small businesses?

      Also, when you say “keep” raising baselines. what are you talking about, given that the min. wage has been increased only 10x in the past 40 years, and the last one was in 2009??

      1. I think they are talking about payroll taxes because the percentage of taxes raise from them has increased substantially over the last 30 to 40 years. I think their point was that even if we were to raise the minimum wage to 15 dollars that it still wouldn’t be enough because the amount being taken out in payroll taxes will still be way too high. Without lowering payroll taxes an increase in minimum wage is only going to help so much because it’s being taxed to death. At least that’s what I think they were saying.

        1. Thanks!!
          Well, those payroll taxes will go up with w Medicare For All system, so we will have to deal with it. Just higher wages overall, remove the SSI cap, etc.

      2. In Washington we are raising to 15/hour (at $11.50 this year) and not just payroll taxes but our State taxes are based on gross earnings. What Kristen says below is true, sort of, if we go to medicare for all over all insurance and medical costs can be shifted to pay for healthcare instead of insurance company profits. Every payroll dollar is taxed at 15.3% up to 100,000. Half comes from the worker, half from the employer. So minimum wage increases send that money to social security and medicare, while high earners still are at the same rate. I’m 100% for wage increases, I just think we should consider the true cost of these moves.

    1. I still give a monthly donation to Alison Hartson but I cancelled my recurring donation to Justice Democrats after they slandered Cenk so viciously in the media.

      1. Cenk is the true founder and the true heart of Justice Democrats, and every JD candidate who wins will be a personal victory for Cenk Uyger.

        I have no use for the Purity Police that threw him off the JD BOD. They represent the kind of prog-fascism that alienates people who would otherwise support progressive causes.
