Politico article on how Rand Paul’s campaign is in shambles. Cenk talks about how ridiculous the cycle is in calling the end of Paul’s campaign in July of 2015, more than a year before the election will take place. They’ve claimed that the biggest problem he’s got is the lack of fundraising b/c he won’t do the stroking and courting that powerful donors expect.

Cenk hosting. The Daily Beast article that highlighted rape allegations in Donald Trump’s divorce proceedings with Ivana Trump have made headlines. She spoke about being being raped by Trump during the marriage after getting a bad and painful plastic surgery job. She has recently changed her interpretation of the rape, calling it totally without merit. Trump’s spokesperson came forward and sent a string of threats at the Daily Beast writer, including asserting that a person cannot rape their spouse. The spox had to eventually apologize for the profanity laced tirade against the writer. Cenk remembers the ad Trump ran in 1989 that called for the death penalty on 5 falsely accused Black men of rape in NYC.

Cenk hosting. Donald Trump calls John McCain a loser for being a POW and likes people that weren’t captured. Cenk doesn’t think this will run Trump out of the campaign even though many people think this is the end. Cenk illustrates it with What About Bob video.

Cenk also remembers when the Bush campaign insinuated that McCain had an illegitimate Black daughter to Southern voters in the 2000 primary. Mitt Romney sent a shot at Trump via Twitter, forgetting that he sought out and got Trump’s endorsement in 2008. Video of their niceties. Lindsey Graham responded by defending McCain on the loser debate, and defending illegal immigrants that Trump offended.

Video of Jake Tapper challenging one GOP Congressman on their swiftboating.

Discussion about what kind of group may be behind this, based on morality or just anger. After Gawker caught hell for running a story outing an executive that was being blackmailed by his secret gay prostitute, two managing editors have stepped down.

On April 15, 2015, 61-year-old rural mail carrier Doug Hughes grabbed headlines after flying his one-man gyrocopter from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to Washington DC and touching down on the west lawn of the Capitol building, bringing with him 535 letters - one for each member of Congress to draw attention to the pressing need for campaign finance reform.
In this interview with The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur, Hughes talks about:
- How he came up with the idea for his historic flight
- Whether he was concerned about being shot out of the air
- How politicians, the moneyed interests and the mainstream media all conspire to perpetuate a corrupt system
- How the right and left can come together to battle corporate cronyism and government corruption
- The felony and misdemeanor charges against him and the upcoming trial that could send him away for X years in prison
- How crony capitalism and a corrupt Congress are intentionally driving the US Postal Service into bankruptcy
- The next stunt he’s planning to shake Americans out of their complacency about the need to get money out of politics and restore democracy.
