Cenk Uygur hosting the 1st hour.  Republicans reaction on guns to the movies.  Perry point of view is gun free zone. Sandra Bland good update there will be federal investigation.  Talking to a inmate….inmate said she was crying.  She was excited to get out of jail. She shouldn’t be in jail all because of traffic signal. Autopsy says 30 to 40 cuts on her arms and find a little drugs. Video of Elizabeth Hasselbeck proposing the possibility that Bland could’ve used her cigarette as a weapon on the cop. Mike Huckabee appeared on a Breitbart radio show and while speaking out about the Iran deal, he claimed Obama is ushering Israelis to the door of “the oven.” Audio of the outrageous comparison. Cenk dismantles Huckabee’s Iran stance with his own previous quotes that called for negotiations with them, to avoid war. Video of President Obama responding to the ridiculous rhetoric by Republican leaders. After being condemned by Jewish groups and even Conservatives, Huckabee stands by his comments, and doubled down. He released a tweet that restated the oven comment. Ken Cuccinelli spoke on CNN about the BlackLivesMatter movement, claiming that many Americans see it as Black lives matter more than other lives. Cenk details the numbers behind young Black people being killed by police officers at rates much higher than other groups. Cenk came up with more BlackLivesMatter hashtags that are like Cuccinelli’s suggestion. Ted Cruz’ number 2 position in fundraising is due to only 3 sources, totaling over $36 million. Talk about how this illustrates who Ted Cruz will work for. One donor is the pastor of a church that believes in the exact text of the Bible. They gave $19 million of their tithes to The Family Research Council. On another note, Cenk agrees with Ted Cruz on his fight with Sen McConnell and other prominent Republicans. Video of Cruz calling Mitch McConnell a liar for telling him he didn’t make a deal with Dems on the Ex-Im bank deal. Bernie Sanders continues to gain significant ground on Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire. She’s also receiving negative approval numbers in IA.

Ana joins Cenk for SCS. New York Magazine cover shows 35 of Cosby’s 46 victims, along with one empty chair to signify the ones that have not yet come forward. A pastor spoke to his congregation about hypocritical judgemental Christians have towards gays when they break rules of the Bible all the time. Video of one part of the sermon. Pat Robertson tackled the problem of SCOTUS justices that ruled against God’s Will. Video of Pat telling a viewer that he can’t answer why God didn’t strike them down. Another video of Robertson claiming that the Justices brought into the rhetoric of Planned Parenthood that had plans of conducting eugenics on Black Americans. A peanut plant executive that knew his peanut butter contained salmonella has been convicted for the deaths that occurred due to the negligence. Prosecutors are seeking a life sentence in prison. Cenk is surprised the authorities are actually going after an executive of a big company. Bobbi Kristina Brown, Whitney Houston’s daughter has died after months on life support. A rogue archivist that takes multiple states’ legal codes and posts them on his website has been apprehended and accused of piracy and terrorism by the state of Georgia. The information is simply the laws of the land that is accessible if people look for them. The illegal part is the posting of annotations that summarize and interpret the law; work done by authors that is not available free of charge. Vice reported on a policy on minor drug offenders that virtually does away with mandatory minimum sentences, allowing nearly 46K prisoners out.
