TYT Hour 1 July 23, 2018

In The Young Turks Hour 1 - On Demand by Waldo Peterson30 Comments

Cenk. GOP lawmaker takes off pants and screams N-word on Sacha Baron Cohen’s new show. Trump’s back-and-forth positions on Russia. Trump threatens Iran on Twitter. Trump rants about Washington Post and Amazon. NY Daily News lays off half its newsroom. Mike Cernovich’s old tweets resurface.

  1. Papers have been historically losing money and rarely was one making any profit. The reason they survived is because publishers, successful businessmen like the Sulzbergers (cotton traders) or the Hearsts (Mining), decided to use them against competitors and politicians.

    “Press Independence” is a nonsensical construct that never really existed.

  2. I can’t believe the graphics department defaced the wonderful Sanderson Sisters with those ass hats.

    1. WRONG.
      He was forced out, but “allowed” to resign. Kyle then also resigned because of the SJW JD Staff’s idiotic handling of Cenk’s 10yr PAST writings.

      Cenk & Kyle are 2 of the original founders of the damn thing.
      I stand by what I said. They are weak-kneed, cringing, cowardly mice.
      Their behavior is proof that the Alt-Right and/or SJW bullies can push them around.

      I support JD candidates and wolf-pac, NOT the JD organization.

      1. Fuck Gunn with a rocket racoon dildo. Am I the only who knows those are very racist? If Donald Trump told those jokes Cenk would try to rip his dick off. Just letting you know I don’t agree that…

  3. Kowtowing to a pro-rape, al-right, pseudo-intellectual is far worse than letting someone direct one of your films who happened to tell a joke in poor taste ten years ago.

  4. So the Justice Dems Staff FORCED Cenk , and later Kyle, OUT because of fucking 10 years PAST shit?
    I saw the stuff, it was pretty harmless young male junk.
    Nothing that should THREATEN a “Strong” group like the JDs, right?

    WRONG. Don’t care to re-litigate that shit. but I will NEVER send money or support to the SJW, fucked in the head, WEAK, cringing JD organization. JD candidates? Yes! In fact, Abdul El-Sayed is running for gov in Michigan and I’ve donated to his campaign a few times.

    JD Organization?
    No. They ran screaming from a fight that they could have won.
    WEAK.

    1. I did the same… I was making a monthly donation to Justice Democrats… I quit it that weekend and changed the amount to go equally to Wolf-Pac and The Resistance…

    2. What the JD’s did to Cenk was ridiculous. And good on Kyle for walking away after that. But boy, wouldn’t the JD’s be much stronger now if they still had Cenk and Kyle speaking for them officially? Talk about an own goal.

      Having said that, I don’t think the Gunn situation is at all similar. There are degrees to everything, and what Cenk wrote is massively dwarfed by both the vileness and the quantity of what Gunn put out, and much more recently. IMHO Disney was well within their rights to do what they did, but others can argue otherwise. Blame the American system of at-will employment. At the end of the day it’s only about a movie, and nobody will need to pass the plate around for Gunn. The JD’s, on the other hand, are far more important and needed Cenk and Kyle far more than Cenk and Kyle need them.

  5. TYT, please cover the Nation State Law recently passed by Israel. Israel has now, by law and actions, cemented themselves as an apartheid state. This needs to get as much coverage as possible, because the main stream news is either ignoring it entirely or covering it with a pro-Israeli bias, as usual.

    Also, if you have time, could you cover the “Control of Economic Activity (Occupied Territories) Bill 2018” recently making its way through Ireland’s legislature. It would ban the purchase of goods/services from illegal Israeli settlements and is a major step forward for the BDS movement.

  6. To be fair Trump could have meant both. He couldn’t see any reason why it would be Russia, or why it wouldn’t be Russia because he doesn’t think.

  7. Enough on the little things like tweets and idiot fool republicans. Can we talk about policy and the real world effect of this tragedy of social politics.

  8. Congrats on 4 million subs! However, it is quite disappointing that ABC and CNN now have more subscribers than TYT :(

  9. 4 chan in full effect here in the comments, eh?

    “I’m not into trump but…”
    “I’m a leftist but…”

    Fuckwits.

  10. Not every tweet is a news leading story. So many other topics around the world not being covered by tyt. I fear we’re falling victim to this ‘trump derangement syndrome’ but not in the context the right claim it to be.

  11. Red Flags.
    When I hear a person make frequent accusations or, even, jokes about rape and/or pedophilia, my first thought is “What is this person hiding?”

  12. Although Trump’s tweets are ridiculous making them worthy of ridicule, I think way too much time is spent on them. I think TYT should spend more time talking about what he and his administration are actually doing or trying to do.

  13. We get it, Sasha Cohen likes to get into disguise and embarrass people. It does not require constant coverage on every show on TYT. It definitely does not need to be the lead story on every single show. With so many stories out there I can only imagine what gets cut so Cohen’s latest antics can be covered. Enough is enough.

    1. Its worth having a reminder regularly that these inner party republicans are not people, they’re sociopaths. The clown prince makes them seem regular by comparison, but its very important to remember that not men, they’re monsters. Theyll never develop compassion, empathy, or solidarity with other Americans. They’ll only consume the world around them. America has paid dearly for having forgotten this.

      1. Apparently America has also forgotten what describing a group of people as irredeemable, inhumane monsters leads to.

        1. It’s worth exposing the worst of them and making sure that they are not making laws for the rest of us. However, I thought it was more of a 2nd hour story.

    2. From a black man who is getting drowned out by Trump’s insanity. Just remember a state representative was willing to say “Nigger. Nigger. Nigger.” on camera. Maybe. That should resonate.
