Cenk and Iadarola host TYT. Although Darren Wilson avoided indictment, more and more Conservatives are calling for others to be arrested and charged for nearly everything else. Video of Missouri Lt Gov Peter Kinder calling for Brown’s stepfather to be charged with inciting a riot. Video of the stepfather screaming “burn this bitch down” after the Grand Jury decision came in. The St. Louis police have announced an investigation into Louis Head about inciting a riot. Video of the Ferguson police chief telling Sean Hannity that they are looking into it. Cenk points out how quickly the authorities spring into action to arrest and prosecute Black residents. Video of Hannity grilling the police chief on charging everyone, from Michael Brown’s friend, to witnesses, to the stepfather. Cenk rants about the circumstances of the altercation that ended in Michael Brown’s killing, calling the Republican Party the Pussy Party. The White House has helped torpedo Harry Reid’s tax deal he was working on with Republicans. The reason was so that they could reconvene on tax reform next year when Republicans have control of both the House and Senate. The potential new plan would be even worse for the Middle Class, by cutting corporate taxes. Some French jihadis that scampered off to Syria to join ISIS have written letters to their loved ones about how they want to come home because they’ve only been handing out food and clothes, and cleaning up. French lawmakers have voted to recognize Palestine as an independent State, but it is not official yet since its a nonbinding vote. The father of the Cleveland police officer spoke out about how he believes his cop son had no choice but to kill Tamir Rice. Video of the cops immediate firing upon the kid. John reminds us about a study that showed people see Black children as more culpable and on average 4.5 years older than they are and more responsible for their actions. Cenk laments the occupying force that the police force has become.
