Bill O’Reilly also headlined the Fox News defense of anti-choice terrorists last night. Video of him saying PP isn’t under threat, but that they deserve the criticism directed at it.

Cenk gives his take on the PP attack from the control room. Conservatives won’t call it Radical Christian terrorism. Video of Carly Fiorina avoiding calling the attacks terrorism, while she accuses the Left for blaming the messenger when most Americans are against what Planned Parenthood does. She went on to compare this terrorist to #BlackLivesMatter protesters.

Sam Harris took to a podcast to talk about refugees and the country’s policy on foreign affairs in the climate of terrorism.

Texas State Troopers are now required to report the race of the drivers they pull over. An investigation into the troopers’ reporting showed that they labeled minorities, especially Latinos as White so that their records wouldn’t reveal how many Black and Latino citizens are harassed. Fallout from the resignation of the President of the Univ of Missouri continues as some students and staff members fought back against the media scrutiny. Conservative media also voiced their outrage to the complacent President being ousted. Video of Kevin Jackson of Fox News defending the racism at the university, claiming that no one was hurt, so it’s no big deal. Video of Eric Bolling saying he would’ve dismissed the Black football players and replaced them with the basketball team. The Defense Dept has decided to dismantle the office that deals with stopping roadside bombs, or IEDs. The money that was used to fund this office dealing with the methods that kill the most American soldiers, is going to be spread to unlisted areas in defense. This move for more money to be funneled to other areas shows that they actually don’t care about the well being of the troops. |

A portion of our Young Turks Main Show from November 9, 2015. For more go to http://www.tytmembership.com. Hour 1: Cenk hosting. Donald Trump went on ABC’s This Week to reveal his plan for defeating ISIS. Video of Trump telling Stephanopoulos that he simply wants the oil. Cenk explains why this simplistic declaration makes no sense and would provide even bigger problems for us. Sen David Vitter is looking to get reelected and in order to continue to pay up on bribes from his rich oil donors, he’s proposed a bill that would stop solar tax credits in that industry and lifting even more regulations on oil producers while giving them more subsidies. Vitter has been given $1 million from the Koch Brothers and other oil giants. The League of Conservation Voters, a Liberal group, has decided to endorse Hillary Clinton for president before the primaries, a move they usually hold until afterwards. Recently, the League of Conservation Voters spent $30 million in the last election, much more than they usually do. This money came from the rich Democratic donors, who want Hillary Clinton to be the nominee and eventual president, so The League is doing what the big donors want. Hour 2: Ana joins Cenk for SCS. The president of the Univ of Missouri has stepped down after weeks of protests over the horrible state of race relations on campus. None of many students’ concerns weren’t being addressed until the Black members of the football team decided to boycott all team activities until the president stepped down. Sea World has decided to discontinue their Killer Whale show at the San Diego location. They’ll replace it with an orca show that is more informative than showy. Tuscaloosa, Alabama police were caught on camera abusing some White Alabama students that were partying late and keeping up too much noise. Video of the beatings. Louisiana cops that killed a 6 year old boy after chasing down the boy’s father have been arrested and charged. They shot the boy 5 times in the head and chest. When the story was 1st reported last week, Cenk was worried that this would be overlooked. Now that they are being brought to justice, he wonders if it’s because the 6 year old was White and the two cops are minorities even though all cops that murder follow this kind of procedure. |

A portion of our Young Turks Main Show from November 6, 2015. For more go to http://www.tytmembership.com. Hour 1: Mark Thompson, Jimmy Dore, Johnny Pie and Cenk hosting the first hour. Cenk loses on a twenty dollar bet from Jayar regarding President Obama’s rejection on the Keystone XL pipeline. Chris Christie and Mike Huckabee will have to sit at the “kids table” for not making the cut at an upcoming Fox News debate. Ben Carson faces allegations that he may have lied about being enrolled at West Point, along with being upset from Alisyn Camerota of CNN from an interview on those allegations and does not believe that President Obama wasn’t vetted from his books like “Dreams Of My Father.” More videos of Carson being upset at Camerota’s line of questioning about his comments about stupid Americans and saying we’d be Cuba if it weren’t for Fox News. Hour 2: Ana replaces John for SCS. The Fraternal Order of Police has threatened to hurt Quentin Tarantino after he stood up in favor of an anti-police brutality rally. Although the words sounded like a threat, they promised it isn’t a physical threat. A 9 year old Chicago boy was lured into an alley where he was shot and killed. Reports claim that he was the son of a known gang member and his killing was retaliatory. Cenk preemptively responds to the Fox News rhetoric that the problem is Black on Black crime, and the destruction of the Black family. A new study claims that religious kids are less likely to share than their Atheist counterparts. They found that the religious kids judged others’ actions more and deemed them more deserving of punishment than themselves. |

A portion of our Young Turks Main Show from November 5, 2015. For more go to http://www.tytmembership.com. Hour 1: Cenk hosting today. Ben Carson released an ad where a rapper tries to appeal to Black voters with a rap song about Ben. Video of the ad. This reminds Cenk of Herman Cain’s old ad that depicted two Black men talking about snuffing out their seeds and getting in trouble with one of their “hos.” Jayar talks about the disconnect Black guys like Herman Cain and Ben Carson have with everyday Black people. Ben Carson’s old comments claiming that Joseph built the pyramids instead of Egyptian slaves has resurfaced. Video of him telling a Christian university his theory back in 1998. Video of Carson reaffirming these same beliefs just yesterday when asked about the old video. The Iranian Ayatollah Khamenei spoke to a group about the well known chant, “Death to America” and claimed that it means death to the policies of America and its arrogant reign. The Senate has agreed to pay for the Highway bill by getting the Feds to halt $17 billion payouts to big banks, but in a last minute move, Senate Republicans reversed the move and gave the billions to the banks anyway. Hour 2: Brett Erlich and Grace Baldridge join Cenk for SCS. There is a new clothing line called Balmain that opened up at H&M stores that caused a bunch of people to barge into stores to get the items ASAP. Serena Williams chased down a man that swiped her phone at a restaurant. Video of the heist and her eventual chase. The new Canadian PM has chosen his cabinet and it’s 50% women. Chemsex is a thing where users take multiple drugs and take part in prolonged sexual activity for days with multiple partners. It is more prominent in male gay relationships. Some psychologists think the reasoning some men do it is because they are trying to escape homophobic experiences in their past. Cenk isn’t buying this assessment. |
