Cenk Hosting. Heather Childers tweets her opinions about ISIS, begging Obama to take action against the Islamic State. Geraldo Rivera steps in, suggesting US beheads the ISIS members. In a recent speech, Joe Biden echoes these sentiments, claiming the US will “follow [ISIS] into the gates of hell,” and Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty appears on Hannity, reading from the Bible and relating verses to his opinions of ISIS, saying the group needs to be converted or killed. Cenk explains terrorist actions against the group will only continue the cycle of violence–ISIS can not be stopped by threats of bombs and bloodshed. Cenk then explains the history of Saudi Arabia and the region’s ideological background leading to ISIS, as well as their link to the oil industry. Libya continues to rapidly dissolve after 11 commercial jets go missing, feared to be under the control of Ansar al-Sharia. |

Cenk hosting. ISIS has posted another video of a 2nd journalist Steven Sotloff being beheaded. They demanded Americans stop bombing them or else they’d kill another after James Foley’s execution was distributed. Sotloff’s mother plead for her son’s life, but that hasn’t worked. Videos of Fox News’ KT McFarland said that Obama has his head in the sand, causing another American to lose his head. McFarland politicized this issue immediately by connecting it to our borders and hating on Latino immigrants. Six militants were killed in Somalia by the American military. This random bombing has Cenk asking how many more places around the world we can possibly be attacking while wondering why we’re always caught up in a war. A video of Libyan militants has surfaced of them partying by the pool of the American embassy they just took in Tripoli. Videos of Louie Gohmert trashing the DREAM Act with several bad zingers. He and Tucker Carlson speculated that many immigrants are claiming to be school aged children when they’re actually men. The war between Russia and Ukraine continues to escalate. Their strategy is to send troops into Eastern Ukraine a little bit at a time while the rest of the world watches, but does nothing. |

We the people have the power to removed the influence of money from politics and the power to remove corporate personhood. Wolf-PAC is the super PAC started by Cenk Uygur to fight for a 28th Amendment for campaign finance reform, to return democracy to the people. But how do we remove the corrupting power of money from the corrupt members of Congress? There is a way, believe it or not, to unite over party lines to correct the Congress that sold the people out. Wolf-PAC makes headway with state representatives, and Mike Monetta is the Director of Organizing for the movement. Think the fight is impossible? Cenk Uygur sits down with Mike Monetta to show the world that it isn't. |

Ben, Ana, and Jasmyne Cannick hosting today. Cannick is a Political analyst and communications strategist. Audio of Mitch McConnell speaking to a Koch Brothers sponsored event where he laid out his plans to make Obama go through a government shutdown fight for every Democratic idea comes to light.

Audio of McConnell lamenting about how Congress wastes time talking about min wage is played. Ben asks Jasmyne why Democrats can’t simply take advantage of the obvious disconnect Republicans have with Americans and be champions of the majority of the country. At the same conference that McConnell spoke about shutting the government down, some GOP newcomers like Joni Ernst and Tom Cotton, attended and spoke about how grateful they are to be included on the gravy train. Jasmyne talks about the level of influence the Kochs have on politics. Ben stresses the importance of the outcome of the races these newcomers are involved in. |
