  1. "People have died since the beginning of time, why try to help them now." - Mad Marge

  2. Giving politicians money is the literal definition of a bribe. Why else would anyone ever give money? These billionaires gotta go.
    67
  3. A misdemeanor with $105 fine!?! That's an insanely weak punishment. I'm glad the dog is not with that horrible "owner" anymore.
    63
  4. Calling sticking up for dead children an "insurrection" is disgusting. Pure republican projection.
    48
  5. Thinking Blackrock is woke is just mind-numbingly stupid.
    42
  6. Why does a fraudster get to keep her money? Do we have any laws in this country?
    39
  7. How dare a private company hire a person we disagree with!

  8. Why is Anna always defending republicans lately? I sense some red flags for her future. Schools outing kids against their wishes is disgusting. It's not like the schools are hosting castration parties or something I mean jeez, why can't kids just be kids anymore. Every second of their day has to be scrutinized and documented for their parents review. It's like they are already slaves working for Amazon for the new and improved $2 minimum wage.

  9. An RV for $267,000 in the 90's! Holy Moly was it made of solid gold? Also I love how he becomes a supreme court justice, making a base salary of $180,000 in 2000!, and instantly takes out a million dollars in personal loans and has republican billionaires already lined up to give him hundreds of thousands.

  10. Jesus that's disgusting. The Israeli government is a terrorist organization.
    23
  11. Dude literally laughed in people's faces while overseeing their torture at Guantanamo. Of course he's antisocial.
    23
  12. We should sue the government for human rights violations and crimes against humanity.
    22
  13. If you are going to tip you should physically hand the worker money in a discrete way. Tipping a CEO for making you do a job that they used to have to hire someone to do is insane.
    22
  14. I bet the executives got their golden parachutes and extra bonuses everytime they ruined the company a little more all while making the workers take wage cuts after wage cuts to "keep their jobs".
    22
  15. Yeah I'd vote for Sean O'Brien for president! Hope the workers strike and get everything they ask for.
    22
  16. Sue the rail company for 10 times what the preventative actions would have cost plus $2 million for every person that had to flee their home!
    19
  17. I can't believe Margerine Traitor Green is in charge of Homeland Security! Jesus christ this country is insane.

  18. When even Dumb and Dumber can't defend it you know you f'd up.

  19. He was trash, the world is better off without him.

  20. That's the party of "fiscal responsibility" for ya! "We can't stop spending money now, how will the dogs earn their pensions?"
    17
  21. I feel every bit of Anna's rage! This is the sickest thing I've ever seen!

  22. What the heck is a "free refund"? If they took your money and are forced to give it back because they didn't provide the agreed service then it's not a free refund. It's just a refund.
    17
  23. If they don't have to verify kids ages then there really is no age restrictions.
    15
  24. No amount of crack could ever make me go to a fox news consultant for psychiatric treatment or make me trust them with my laptop. The whole situation is so far beyond parody and absurdity it's unfathomable.

  25. "The problem with slavery these days is that there just isn't enough of it and all the pesky human rights get in the way." - Nicholas Kristof

  26. Tesla has a gigafactory in China yet I don't see a bill to ban Tesla. Tesla also partnered with Chinese battery makers to open factories in the US. Funny how when a battery plant opens in Michigan there's outrage about the chinese having control of a ... battery plant. But when Tesla invites china to do literally the exact same thing except put the tesla logo on the building instead there's no issue? I'm starting to get the feeling that none of this has anything to do with China after all.

  27. Biden should be prosecuted right along with Trump but for the much worse crime of funding terrorism and g-cide.

  28. Social Security and Medicare are NOT government spending. The republicans keep framing it like it's just money being printed. We pay into those every day our whole lives. And Reagan was the one who cut social security the first time in 1983, also adding a tax to it if you work and cutting taxes for the rich. Tax the poor give it to the rich, that's the republican motto.

  29. This is a very interesting psychological study. The confusion was overwhelming when that guy presented himself as a higher authority and confidently stuck to it. Basically the same thing that Trump does everyday except with money. "Look at all this money I borrowed and stole from people.........I mean earned by myself and not with daddy's help".

  30. That Family Guy skit where the sweatshop worker has a baby and never stops working and the baby is picked up by the manager and set down at a station and starts working too.... Yeah, that's our world.
    14
  31. Yeah it's insane that utility companies are allowed to pay dividends on the stock market let alone do stock buybacks.
    14
  32. Peterson calling everyone else antisemitic while his own followers are a bunch of incels and nazis.... classic.
    14
  33. The minimum wage for 14 year olds is $4.25. That all anybody needs to now about why republicans want to employ child labor. And no liability if kids are injured or become sick or dead due to the employer.

  34. I can read it to the entire American public but you are not allowed to read it in a library. - Senator Foghorn Leghorn

  35. There's no such thing as a seasonal home. Unless it somehow gets torn down and rebuilt every year. We need some serious taxes on real estate profits to ward off the speculators and investors that just want to drive up prices for increased profits at the expense of exacerbating a homelessness crisis.

  36. One of the AL Supreme Court Judges literally quoted the bible in his ruling/opinion. That's blatantly unconstitutional and the judge should be charged with breaking the constitution for this. If a supreme court judge doesn't know that you cannot rule based on the bible and that we have separation of church and state then he deserves to be in prison like the criminal he is.

  37. Cenk's got energy and heart, keep it up dude!
    13
  38. Don't worry the AI was just meant to "help our busy staff".... yeah definitely not to replace staff so that the executives can take ALL of the money and everyone else loses their job... nope definitely not.

  39. Why is Ben presenting this?! He's not even honest about the numbers or about anything that's going on. He doesn't even mention the apartheid, the settlements, the genocide or the thousands of hostages that Israel has kidnapped from Palestine. He's just blinded by the word jew as if that means infallible.
    13
  40. So his dad is a black Nazi and he's a gay gay basher? ... wtf is wrong with republicans?
    12
  41. The French aren't stupid like us American's, they know how to get shit done!
    12
  42. Ben doesn't seem to understand the power dynamics at play. The fact that Israel invaded, nakba number 1, has formed an apartheid government imprisoning Palestinians and taking away all of their human rights for decades and then kills them at will whenever it pleases and then how dare they fight back? I understand that Hamas did bad things too but it is the oppressor that defines the nature of the struggle as Nelson Mandela once said. Do you also condemn the Black Panthers for armed struggle? Do you condemn the Jews for fighting back in WWII? Do you condemn the ANC for armed resistance against apartheid South Africa? Notice what all of those things have in common? They are all resistance groups fighting an enemy that has all the power.

  43. How dare starving American children want 2 meals a day! Jeff Bezos needs another yacht!
    12
  44. I'd be terrified to return to my house if I lived there. Am I inhaling toxic fumes? Can I even sell my house, who is going to buy a house next to a poison gas leak that was used as a chemical weapon in WWII?
    12
  45. Was the girl cop shooting too!!!!!???? Jesus we are all done for.
    12
  46. Landlords contribute nothing to society, they simply make money by already having money. Middlemen should be banned from society.
    12
  47. We have no anti-trust laws in this country.
    12
  48. How dare gay people be allowed to eat food too! Think about the children! - republicans
    12
  49. Republicans just show again and again that they are absolute monsters!
    12
  50. We need a gameshow with Mike Tyson where behind three doors are politicians that deserve a meeting to the face with Iron Mike and I want to see Rick Scott go first on account of his defrauding Medicare and just being a all around evil rat.
