  4. Look, I’m in Texas and I consider myself a moderate. I have Democrat friends, and I even have a few Republican friends. I’m transgender, so it can be harder to make conservative friends. Why bother? Because eventually, more often than not, they come back to me after storming out of my life over my sinful choices, sometimes years later, to apologize and beg forgiveness. I want the lines of communication open because I know some of them very well (grew up with many of them), and when they realize they drank the Republican kool-aid I want them to be able to have a “soft landing” so to speak. I forgive them and we laugh about all the craziness of conservatives. I DON’T want them to hate themselves and then either get sucked back in by the Republicans/Christianity, or to shoot themselves in the head (in Texas, it’s almost always one or the other in my experience). If they do the former then we (liberals) GAIN an ally and a vote; if they do the latter then we LOSE an ally and a vote. We have to be careful of political intolerance (which I’ve been guilty of myself before I’ll fully admit) because it can bite us in the ass. So while I condemn any attacks on a political candidate because of their gender or sexual identity, I don’t hate someone running as a Democrat in TX simply because they are a moderate who will compromise sometimes. And to Cenk I’d remind him that in Texas you MUST be a moderate (or a “Texocrat” as we’re often called) to win generally speaking (and if not then you need to be prepared to deal with the 35-50% who didn’t vote for you as you still work for them, too!). My request is simple: let’s stop saying “moderate” like it’s a curse or a dirty word, ok? Please?

  5. The only thing I am, sure of this Wed morning is that the DCCC & DNC crushed with MONEY.

    Progressive ideas are better, more popular, in a conversation with ANY voter (D or R). Progressive ideas win, and almost everyone believes that money is a corrupting influence. Even the most low-ingo voter would agree on that one, even if they don’t believe THEIR party is corrupt.

    This is disheartening. But, if Corporate WHORE Dems (DNC Dems are almost all whores) continue to ignore Progressives, running as Independents may be the only option, like Tim Canova.

    If Bernie runs in 2020, the DNC will lie, cheat, steal to deny him the nomination.
    I am convinced of that. They will Super Delegate him to death and then throw out ballots, change voter affiliations, etc.
    Oh wait … they already did that!

    Trump WILL win in 2020, and He can thank the DNC.

  7. Why isn’t TYT covering the Poor People’s Campaign and their demonstrations? I wouldn’t expect the mainstream media to but what’s up with that TYT?

    1. Totally agree with 2cats2humans, you have to watch Aggressive Progressives who continually bring us the stories not being reported on in mainstream media. Last week’s AP show reported on this important 40 day nation wide campaign. TYTLIve needed more time to focus on Trump to continually commentate on how he’s a moron or idiot which I guess is what the viewers want.

      1. now that non-members are getting access to AP – they should release it to general viewers – they should take each segment and put it up on their YouTube channel SO THEY CAN REACH THE BIGGEST AUDIENCE POSSIBLE … isn’t it weird that they claim they want to reach a larger audience with this deal – but NEVER RELEASED AGGRESSIVE PROGRESSIVES TO YOUTUBE TO INCREASE IT’S VIEWERSHIP …

  8. I had to check and double check that this was not yesterday’s episode. Many of the stories were so similar it was hard to tell.

  9. Ok, see if I’ve got this right: National Security professionals who are doing their job discover–through ordinary surveillance that specific people within the Trump administration have/are making communications with a foreign adversary during the elections. To ignore these discoveries would be professional malfeasance to say the least; to brush them aside would be partisan advocacy; to wait until after the election would be professional suicide. So….if your not breaking the law, and everything is on the up-and-up, what is the administration worried about, and why are they trying to interfere.

    1. Well…that depends. Are you on an android, iphone, mac, or windows? What browser are you using? Does your browser need to be updated?
      All I know is I’m using windows/chrome and I can see a download button. And you don’t even have to open the link in a new tab to get the full download (at least that is fixed).

    2. I don’t see it at first but when I open the page via Member Content – TYT Hour 1 it does appear.

  11. PA primary:

    Dem’s vote for Dem’s only ! no crossover votes allowed

    GOP votes for GOP only ! ” ” ” ”

    Independents ( over 40 % ) can’t vote at all.

    Some Progressives running as Dem’s may have done better if Pa had an open primary with crossover voting allowed.

    Maybe the way Pa residents are allowed to vote is the problem ?

    YA THINK !
