Cenk and John hosting. The Kentucky Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis has been sent off to jail for her continued disregard for the law in refusing to give marriage licenses to gay citizens. John reads some of her self righteous statements. Video of the conflicting protests from outside of her hearing. Syrian refugees being allowed into certain countries is startling. As some countries like Lebanon and Turkey that don’t have the capacity to accept many still take some, while the 6 Gulf countries have allowed zero refugees in. The RNC has proposed a Loyalty Pledge that would force all GOP candidates to promise not to run on a 3rd Party ticket if they lose the GOP nomination. This is obviously a ploy to keep Trump from doing it. Video of Christie signing the pledge on air at Fox News. Video of Rand Paul speaking to the same show in favor of the pledge. After Jeb Bush answered a question about Donald Trump in Spanish, Trump said he needs to speak in English while in America. Video of Fox’s Kilmeade siding with Trump, claiming that Jeb speaking in Spanish would have him confused and missing the story. An analysis of Donald Trump’s accumulated wealth since he inherited $40 million from his father in 1974, shows that if he did no money investing, he’d be worth as much as he is today, despite all of his perceived business acumen. Don Lemon interviewed a Black Lives Matter leader about his choice to reject an invitation from some members of the Democratic Party. Video of Lemon asking if he has more of a plan than “just yelling.” Hour 1 Source Articles: Sign up for The Young Turks daily source articles email newsletter: http://eepurl.com/PLlqD Donald Trump isn't rich because he's a great investor.
