    1. After listening to that clip Kim Jong Un showed up in my front room. Fortunately, I said his name 3 times and he went back to North Korea.

  2. If you want to watch them live it’s on TYT YouTube…
    They can’t upload an episode on here that is literally happening live…
    After the main show acouple other shows are on…they usually end at like 930-10 and then upload the finished product.

    Watching the show live is fun too…so if you want it right away go to YouTube…

    Just didn’t want people thinking it was a glicu or something and getting frustrated with the company….

  3. Is there anyway to watch it sooner as a member the main show starts before I get off of work but I have YouTube saving it to the watch later automatically. As long as I start it on YouTube before 8 back it up to the beginning and don’t touch it or I’ll lose it all together. It works kinda/maybe couldn’t y’all just put up a temporary unedited version after the show ends for the members and when y’all get it like you want it put it up and get rid of the other one. You’re the only news I want to watch after work please don’t make me put on CNN or MSNBC thank you

  4. Same here….just got home from work and dinner made. What happened to tonight’s (the 10th) episode? I think maybe I’m a bit OCD because I don’t like my routine to be effed up. =P

  5. Can you please work I’m uploading the newest episodes faster? It’s Tuesday the 10th at 5:23 PST and it’s still yesterday’s episode in here. Thanks guys. Really love you and love watching you. Just want to watch your latesta right when I get off work.

  6. There is no parliamentary procedure that can stop the republicans from confirming Kavanaugh period.

    And this is assuming the 3 usual suspect Dems will vote against him. They won’t.

    He is basically a shoo-in.

    1. Yes there is. If no Democrat goes, then there is no quorum, and hence no vote.

      But the Democrats won’t do this because they are weak and pathetic right-wing pricks.

        1. We must do whatever it takes to prevent the further discrimination of minorities from this fascist party. I’m not being unreasonable, all we should ask for is a centrist like Merrick Garland. We must try everything possible to prevent this from happening, even if it means the Police dragging the Senate Democrats in handcuffs.

          Either way, it won’t matter since Democrats are way too weak and pathetic to try *anything.*

  7. re: North Korea vs Mike Pompeo the reference to Pompeo sleeping well was response to tRump’s statement after the Sngapore Summit everyone could sleep better now that he and Kim shook hands

    ‘There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea’: Trump tweets that Americans can ‘sleep well tonight’ as he lands back in the US after ‘interesting and positive’ meeting with Kim Jong-Un

  8. Regarding the lack of tariffs on Ivanka-related industries: Those are some fair points, but I think y’all focused too much on the wrong aspect of the story. The bigger issue, it seems to me, is that Trump utilized executive power to enrich his family’s interests (again). Corruption was discussed in this context, but it seems to me y’all kinda danced around that particular caveat. Anyways, I’m just nitpicking.

  9. I don’t believe that the Republican Establishment wants a ardent anti-choice SCOTUS pick.
    The overturning of Roe v. Wade is the flaming-sword wielding Jesus riding a flying unicorn that their Anti-choice mob has been praying on for years!

    If they finally got a SCOTUS to do this for them, then how will the RNC turn out the vote? Other than pledging to bring about Armageddon, it’s a reliable siren’s call for their evangelical voters.

    Just this morning I see that the pick is Kavanaugh.
    He’s a full-frontal hypocrite on prosecuting sitting presidents.
    The Establishment Repubs will love him!
    He’s partisan, pro-corporation, and anti-consumer protections. Plus, since he’s Catholic, that gives the RNC cover on the abortion debate ~ which they don’t give a shit about anyway.

    1. Believe it.

      The republican party is now a white supremacist part where people like Steve King publicly say: “we can’t continue our civilization with other people’s children”.

      Most abortions/contraception use are done by white women. Banning abortion will ensure a permanent white majority in the nation and will ensure that there is no need for more migration since the birth rate will instantly exceed the replacement rate.

      1. Well, rich women (mostly white) will still be able to get abortions. For the poor, we’ll go back to the days of back alley and DIY abortions.

  10. If Trump does not run in 2020, and DNC-Dems continue their current strategery, Pence will win in 2020. It is almost a guarantee. The only chance the DNC has is if they can run against Trump.

    The Republican establishment will breathe a sigh of relief and send a Koch-tastic Golden Avalanche towards Pence. The DNC will respond with a cookie-cutter Corporate Butt-licker.

    Working poor & minorities who didn’t come out for Hillary (like in Michigan or Wisconsin) will NOT take off work/sacrifice income, stand in line for 5+ hours, and get their friends to vote for (fill in the blank w/any “Better Deal” Dem). They will for a Bernie or Nina Turner-type candidate.

    But we already KNOW that the DNC will NEVER allow a real Progressive to run. I honestly believe they would even block Warren, as she might give some Progressives hope. Gotta crush Progressives goals at all costs.

  12. There was barely a whiff of Russia fearmongering this hour. Shame on TYT! Have active measures been deployed on the TYT network? Does PUTIN have compromising material on TYT? Kompromat? That would explain the change of rhetoric as of late. TYT use to bash Russia for an entire hour, but now it’s only a couple of segments a week. Shame on TYT!

    1. You need to get your message straight. You’re all over the place. Isn’t there quality control where you work?

  13. Trump out before midterms? That’s one helluva gutsy call there Cenk. I do believe he’ll be out way before his term is up but in 3+ months? Would love to see it. Heck I still believe his health will take a real nosedive sometime in the near future. No way he’s got the stamina for even his reduced schedule and severely limited command of the issues at hand. Heart attack, stroke, and/or complete mental breakdown from finally being cornered with all the corruption in his life and being exposed for the fraud he is will do him in.

  14. Cenk, I’ll give 50 to one odds that Trump is still president after the mid-terms. Not happy about that.

  15. Ana, yes supreme court picks are incredibly important. That’s why I was upset with the dems for not fighting very hard for Obama’s pick so they could leverage it for votes for Hillary. I was very aware, and I was pissed the dems played games instead of taking it seriously.

    1. Exactly, This is not the voters fault, this is All on the DNC, they played “3 dimensional chest” with our lives.
      And I mean every word, THANKS OBAMA you fucking house slave.

      1. It could have been a reason for her loss. They dangled it in front of conservatives, saying, “Take control of the Supreme Court and you can ban abortion!” and they came out.

        The only reason it makes sense is because of their incredible hubris.

  16. The TYT shirts I’ve bought aren’t made in the US. I know TYT aren’t being hypocrites, but there are a number of companies in the US that make t-shirts. A number of union shops as well. Wouldn’t it be cool if you could put a banner on your TYT shop page that said “Made in the USA or Union Made in the USA?”
    I was reading an article by Laura Dean from The Intercept this morning about the garment industry setting up shop in Ethiopia because they found a new place with even lower wages. From the article: “…the average monthly salary of a garment worker making minimum wage in Vietnam is $136 to $175; in Sri Lanka, it’s $66; in India, it’s $78 to $136; and in Cambodia, it’s $170. In Bangladesh, where garment workers have historically been paid the lowest wages, the minimum wage for garment workers is $65, and the government is thinking of raising it again. Of course, cost of living varies in each country, but all of them have a minimum wage. Ethiopia, in contrast, does not. The international poverty line is $1.90 a day, about $57 a month.” It said in the article that,in Ethiopia, people were making about $27/month making Calvin Klein products, etc. It would be easy to buy one Calvin Klein shirt here that would pay 3 months of an Ethiopian worker’s wages. I’ll put a link below to the article. Just a warning. It might make you mad when they talk about low productivity.

    Like I said, I’m not saying TYT are hypocrites for getting t-shirts from over seas. But- it’s kind of being part of the problem. In my opinion. For what that’s worth. Probably not much. The article is definitely worth reading though.

    2. The Alexandria Ocasio Cortez t-shirt I bought from her campaign site IS made in the USA, by a union shop.

        1. TYT has fallen. It just has. It may still be one of the best sources for news. It is far from what it used to be loved for.
