Time Text
Hey, this is Jimmy.
Who's this?
Jimmy Doerr.
This is Joe Biden.
Oh, hey there, Mr. President.
How the hell are you?
That's my line.
How the hell are you?
I'm doing well.
Thanks for asking.
How are you?
I'm doing great.
Seriously, I'm ACES.
Tomorrow Harris and I are get to work immediately on healing the divide in this nation.
Bringing the two ass back together again, fusing them with the blowtorch of liberty, the shattering iron of justice, so that they are again one.
I see.
Okay.
That and to stop eating paper.
What?
That's just an old nervous habit of mine.
I tear off his old piece of paper and I roll them into a ball and I chew on them until they're all pulpy.
And then I swallow them.
Oh, that's weird.
Yeah, it's sort of bizarre.
You know, a little bit's fine, but lately it's been sort of ramped up.
And I brashed out it into colored paper because at this point, my palate is so developed that I can taste differences.
Apparently, the dyes agrees, you know, for the coloring.
You know, you can be toxic, Jimmy.
Yeah, stop doing that, please.
And I go to my doctor, and he says, my doctor says, stop eating paper.
Right.
He says, damn it, Joe, you're going to die from eating paper.
So I've tried to cut down.
Oh, that's good.
But Kamala, you know, she's such a card.
She's so funny.
We'll be in a transition meeting.
A meeting for the transition.
And so she'll quietly tear off a piece of paper and roll it into a little ball.
And then she'll roll the ball over to me.
As if to say, here, Joe, eat some paper.
And I do.
This is insane.
Yeah.
I know.
She's going to go cold turkey the first year.
She really is a card.
She says to me, Kamala says to me, Joe, your administration is going to be the best two years this country has seen in a long time.
And then she points her finger right at my heart.
Jesus Christ.
So the joke there is, you know, her presidential administration is four years, not two.
And she says it was such a straight face.
Her delivery is so deadban.
Joe.
Joe, you need to tell the Secret Service that she's trying to poison you.
Yeah, they're too busy trying to figure out who cut the brake line on my town card.
Excuse me?
We almost crashed into a Chipotle.
It was wild, Jack.
Mr. Biden, I'm getting the sense that you may be in danger.
Jimmy, I can't afford to live my life in fear.
And I am not afraid.
Do you know why?
No, no, why?
Because I have lost cognitive function to the point where I can no longer perceive danger.
And I wouldn't have it any other way.
Mr. Biden, please.
I gotta go, Jimmy.
Someone anonymously left me an assortment of chocolates here in my office.
And I'm gonna go take a bite out of each one until I get to the Marzipan.
Joe, no!
Establishment media sets are fighting.
So good luck with bullshit we can't afford.
Watch and see as a jackal comedian who speeds and jumps the medium and hits him head on.
It's the Jimmy Door show.
Hey, I'm here with Aaron Mate.
Aaron Mate is a contributor to the Gray Zone.
He's the winner of the I.F. Stone Izzy Award for Independent Journalism.
And you can read his work on his new substack at mate.substack.com.
Please welcome award-winning journalist Aaron Mate.
Hi, Aaron.
Hey, Jimmy.
All right.
So we're going to do this one more time.
We have to go through this one more time because Jenk Uger has a new hilarious video out.
It's unintentionally hilarious, but it is hilarious.
So Glenn Greenwald debunked everything that's been going on with Jenk Uger and Anna Kasparian and TYT.
And I just want to remind you how this all started.
So Glenn Greenwald debunked Jenkin TYT.
I mean, he really laid the hammer down, and I'll show you.
And then Junk Uger from TYT did another video pretending to be a white knight Boy Scout who's defending the honor of women.
And it was very funny.
And so we're going to show you that again.
And let's remember how this all started.
Here's, and this is not drama.
This is a big deal that we should have to call out and stop.
This is what the young Turks did to Aaron.
I don't know what to say.
They said Aaron Mate yelled at me.
Oh, Aaron Mate like.
Oh, Aaron Mate.
Everyone cares what Aaron Mate has to say, right?
The guy who denies that Syrian children were killed with chemical attacks.
Yeah, yeah.
Fuck Aaron Mate.
Yeah, fuck you.
Anyway, let's move on.
Let's end the freaking pot.
I can't.
I can't.
Okay, see, that's what happened.
I can't stand, I can't stand that guy.
And I can't stand the very intentional disinformation they put out there in regard to disgusting dictatorships.
Wow, this really punches it.
The very people they seem to be working for, to be quite honest with you.
Let's move on.
All right, we're done.
Disgusting.
Absolutely disgusting.
If Aaron Mate feels really warm in his Russian blanket, it's like, oh, but the Russian government favors me.
He should be super proud of that.
Way to go, Aaron.
You did it.
No, I. Okay.
Yeah, fuck Aaron Mate.
Yeah, fuck you.
Anyway, let's move on.
Let's end the freaking pot.
They did end their freaking podcast.
Now, the reason why I giggle at that is because it's ridiculous, but it's also serious.
But now it's been debunked, so it's kind of funny.
Now everybody knows what they did.
Everybody has seen what's been happening.
And so Glenn Greenwald did a video, right?
And Jenk Uger responded to it.
So Glenn Greenwald tweeted this out.
He said, so Jenk Uger made a video last night purporting to respond to me that so unhinged he's trending and being attacked by his own viewers.
Amazingly, he's 100% ignored the main point that caused me to weigh in.
They falsely accused a journalist of being paid by the Russians.
So Glenn Greenwald did his video, and I'm going to put a link under this video, and you should go watch it because he said this is this story where they smeared Aaron Mate after they smeared Julian Assange in the same way, then smeared me with a fabricated hashtag me too, right?
Which everyone saw was a reaction to try to silence me.
And so he pointed those two things out, the McCarthy smearing and the weaponization of the hashtag two movement for political means.
And he called it out and he showed how that's what the young Turks did, both of those things.
And so Jenk Uger went nuts.
And Glenn Gris.
So here's what Glenn was saying.
He says, Jen can rant and rave and sweat and breathe as heavily as he wants.
And it will never erase what he and the young Turks shamefully did.
All his sweat cannot distract from the only issues that matter.
It's the fabricated serious accusations against journalists.
So this is just a piece of what Glenn said.
And I encourage everybody to go watch his video.
It's really fascinating.
He does a great job.
But here we go.
They accuse somebody, a journalist, of being paid by the Russians, even though Jenk Uger, who made that accusation, has no evidence of any kind.
The reason why I want to highlight this is two reasons.
One is, how can any decent person, no matter your politics, no matter what you think about those people involved, no matter what you think about those issues that they were nominally reacting to or the ideologies that people, regardless of any of your views on that,
how can any decent person continue to accept that somebody who claims to be a journalist or claims to be a commentator telling the truth about things is now just allowed whenever they feel like it, whenever they get a little itch inside to just accuse somebody of being a paid agent of the Kremlin or working for foreign dictators, even though they have no evidence for it.
How in any way, in any way, is that tolerable or permissible in our discourse?
How can you possibly be somebody who watches that program or who in any way admires those two commentators or think they're doing good work and not be indignant that they're feeding you lies, things that they just make up, fabrications in order to slander their critics?
It's such an insult to your intelligence if you're watching that.
And it's just mind-boggling to watch that people believe that they have the prerogative to do that, to accuse somebody of grave transgressions of what are crimes, even though they acknowledge, they will acknowledge they have no evidence at all that it's true.
They're just making it up and broadcasting it, publishing it to hundreds of thousands of people.
Who isn't angry about this?
It's as morally repulsive and ethically disgusting and journalistically indefensible as it gets.
There's almost nothing worse you can do if you're participating in public discourse than deliberately and casually sneer somebody while knowing that you have no evidence.
So that's the kind of hammers that Glenn was laying down on the young Turks.
And Anna decided to respond like this.
We'll get to Jenk's response in a second, but Anna responded, I said he seems to be working for dictators because it does seem like he's working for dictators.
I get to have an opinion and he can keep crying about, he could keep crying about it like an effing child all day.
Wow.
Wow.
Jenkins Anna, this is what Caitlin Johnstone says.
Jenkins Anna seem to be running a human trafficking ring out of the TYT office.
I have no evidence for this.
It just seems that way to me.
This is a perfectly legitimate thing for me to do.
I get to have an opinion.
Now, that's funny.
That is funny.
I like when someone could expose someone for being a ridiculous idiot with comedy.
And that's what that was.
So nothing does it better sometimes than that.
And that's what did it.
So that was called, that's very funny.
And now, so now here, Jenkins is going to respond to Glenn Greenwald.
This whole blackmail thing.
I'm going to come back to that because some people who used to be good smart people have been duped by that too.
So apparently this was a state secret and Anna was going to threaten to reveal it unless Jimmy didn't, unless Jimmy did the things that she wanted.
Now, she didn't write any of that.
You saw it with your own eyes.
But not only that, apparently Jimmy had already revealed it.
So I want to give credit to Matt Dimitri, who's found a lot of these old videos because Jimmy does live streams, but he's so unhinged, et cetera.
He takes a lot of them down afterwards, realizing, oh my God.
So now Jenk just thanked Matt Dimitri for a video that is selectively edited, right?
And that's what this guy, Matt Dimitri, did.
He's the one who did a doctored video of Aaron Mate to make it look like he was saying Assad was his hero, which Aaron never said anything like that.
But they doctored the video and then Anna Kasparian and TYT tweeted it out, a doctored video to smear Aaron to make it look like he was saying Assad was his hero and he wasn't.
And so the guy who put that video together was Matt Dimitri, and that's the guy Jenk is thinking.
They've never apologized for that video.
Anna was confronted that she tweeted out a doctored video to smear an anti-war journalist and she didn't take responsibility for it and said it didn't matter that she did that.
And so that's the, just so you know, so again, this is all now getting to be unbelievably farcical.
So let's watch.
Terrible things.
In fact, I don't know why he takes them down and I don't care.
Okay.
But they, but they found these.
And so.
So just so he made up Scott.
He's just trying to throw every lie.
Okay.
He goes, Jimmy Dore takes his videos down after he does his live streams because he's so embarrassed of the things he says.
So we don't take them down.
What we do is we give them to our premium members.
So the people who are members get all our live stream immediately.
We don't take them down.
They're available.
So he just made it up.
Okay.
And Jimmy, doesn't, don't the middle-aged McCarthyites, aka the Young Turks, do the exact same thing?
They do their live show and then if you want to watch it, you have to be a premium member and then they put out individual segments just like you do, right?
That's what, isn't that what they do as well?
They do the exact same thing.
So Jenk was just what Jenk was trying to criticize me for, he does the exact, he realized he does the exact same thing.
I don't know why Jimmy does.
I mean, I do the exact same thing, but I don't know why Jimmy does it.
I don't know why Jimmy does it.
He does the exact same thing.
So they're trying to say now the new thing is this guy, Matt Dimitri, is passing this video around that Jenk is going to reference and Ryan Grimm has been tweeting it out.
That's showing you.
By the way, Jimmy, by the way, I wouldn't assume that Matt Dimitri is actually a guy.
It's a troll account.
Right.
It's not a person.
We have no idea who this person actually is.
And it might even be multiple people.
Yeah.
They spent a lot of time policing YouTube to take clips of authentic leftists and then put them out to try to like edit them and then deceptively edit them.
This is December of 2020.
Okay.
So this state secret that apparently that was going to get blackmailed a center, Jimmy had already admitted.
Watch.
One time I was in a news studio and I won't say who did this, but someone wore Such a short anyway.
You gave me a dirty look last week when I mentioned that.
I thought it was funny.
I'm just saying.
I've seen newscasters naked asses in newsrooms.
That's all I'm saying.
I'm not saying ooze.
I think, I think nice news skirt.
Nice news.
Yeah, the only thing worse than a nice news skirt is a nice news thong.
A news thong.
It's a news bikini.
So they play that.
Me telling as Steph and I having an inside joke moment on our live stream with each other.
I didn't say who that story was about, but this is what Jenk says.
And why did Jimmy start?
And by the way, they were talking about Anna when they went into that spiel.
Okay.
And so it was not unclear who he was referring to.
It wasn't any random person at TYT, right?
They were talking about Anna, and then they say all that.
Didn't even mention TYT.
I didn't even mention TYT.
I said, I was in a newsroom once.
I didn't mention TYT.
Could have been Fox News.
Could have been RT.
Could have been Fox 11.
Could have been.
I've been in a million newsrooms.
I could have, I've been in a million newsrooms across the country.
I've been doing morning, I've been doing comedy across the country for 30 years.
And a lot of times you go on morning news shows to promote it.
So I've been in a lot of newsrooms.
And what's interesting is he says, oh, they were talking about Anna there.
The story about how when someone flashed me and I said nice news skirt.
And he says they're obviously talking about Anna there.
He just said that.
How does he know I'm talking about Anna?
I didn't say Anna's name.
And Anna disputes that story.
She said that never happened.
Here's what Anna says happened.
And as I was walking in with them, that was when he made the comment.
And he didn't make a comment about a news skirt.
He made a comment about how sexy my legs were in front of my students.
And it was degrading, obviously.
And I like how she says obviously.
It was obviously degrading.
So now they're telling two different stories.
So she's saying my story is fun.
But Jenk is sure that that story's about Anna, that she bent over news skirt, the whole deal.
What that story shows, Jenkin and Anna are too dumb to understand that they just put a stake in their own heart.
What happened was that confirms my story to be true because I was telling that in December before I was being threatened with a blackmail from Anna Kasparian.
That was back then.
So that was Steph and I having a inside joke to each other.
And Jenk says everybody knows he was talking about Anna.
How if that story never happened?
Because she said it didn't happen.
She's now saying that wasn't the problem.
The problem wasn't that I said nice news skirt and everybody laughed.
So if you don't know the story, Anna came in one time wearing a skirt that was so short when she bent over, she flashed the whole newsroom and everybody was horrified.
It was like, what do we do?
What do we say?
What do we do?
And I just said, hey, Anna, nice news skirt.
And it was such an outrageous situation that everybody laughed and they laughed so hard, it embarrassed her.
And I didn't want her to be embarrassed.
So I apologized to her and I told her, don't feel bad.
I said, I'm sorry, you feel bad.
I'll never mention or make mention of your clothes ever again.
Don't worry about it.
And that's not my, and I gave her a card the next day saying the same thing.
And she's like, oh, Jimmy, get out of here.
You don't need to do that.
So now she's saying that never happened.
Now she's saying it was a totally different story.
But Jenk is saying it was the nice news skirt showing her flashing the newsroom story.
So do you see how when you lie, they can't even get now they're, they don't even agree on what the story is.
Jenkins Anna are disagreeing on what the story is.
She says, I'm mad because you are pretending.
So now he's trying to say that that DM I showed you where she was trying to blackmail me, he's trying to say that wasn't.
He's trying to say that wasn't.
Watch this.
He's just saying she was mad.
Watch.
Be a warrior for good when I real, when in reality, I know because of my personal experience that you're a dirtbag.
So I'm going to let people know you're a dirtbag because that's who you are because you're going out there and attacking me personally.
This has nothing to do with politics anymore.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
It had everything to do with Puff.
See, that's the thing.
Again, of course, if everyone knows the genesis of this, they when I did hashtag force the vote, Anna Kasparian came out and said I was a grifter and said all this horrible stuff, right?
Said, I don't trust him.
He's not a good person.
He's just railing at AOC as part of his brand.
So she was taking the most broad ad hominem attacks at me.
And that's why I returned fire on Anna.
And then Jenk came at me in a personal way, said I was a maniac, all unhinged, all this stuff.
You guys know what he did.
I didn't make it up.
And then him and Ryan Grimm did videos about me, about how crazy I am.
And so I returned kind.
And I showed how they smeared Julian Assange, how they did shady fundraising, how they said McCarthy could become speaker lying about hashtag force to vote.
I showed her tweeting out that's deceptively edited video and their bad coverage of Syria.
So that's what we showed.
So here we go.
You're saying I'm paid off by nefarious people, all these different things, and including sexual attacks, et cetera, as you're about to see, right?
So I'm mad and I'm telling you, okay, if you're going to attack us, then I'm finally, I've been holding, holding, holding.
And we did, guys, we held for so long.
Again, this is just garbage.
Look at his face.
He's just, they've been attacking me nonstop since I started Force to Vote.
And everybody knows that.
They started it when they called you a grifter.
And so, of course, you're going to respond to that.
You know, like before they called you a grifter, you weren't criticizing them.
But then that set off this thing with Force to Vote.
And of course you're going to respond, which, of course, Jenk leaves out.
And also, when he calls you a dirtbag, does the thought occur to him in his brain how ridiculous it looks for Jenk, a guy who was disowned by the Justice Democrats, who was rejected by Bernie Sanders.
Bernie Sanders had to reject his endorsement.
Because of Jenk's documented history of sexist, misogynist, and bigoted comments.
Does it occur in his brain how dumb he looks going on camera and trying to accuse you of being a dirtbag, basically being all the things that Jenkins documented to have been and had to be repudiated for it?
Had to have people basically renounce him and like take their name off the organization.
It's ridiculous.
All because you said nice news skirt.
Yes.
By the way, in a and that video you showed, which corroborates your version of events, unless Jenk wants to argue that you had a time machine.
And back in December, you were like, you Know what?
Seven months from now, I'm going to get accused of sexual harassment for a joke I made seven years ago because I'm going to be responding to the young Turk slandering my friend Aaron and saying he's paid by the Russians.
So I'm going to go on rec right now and I'm going to falsify this version of events.
No, it's ridiculous.
The fact that he played a video that corroborates your version of events speaks to the level of intelligence we're dealing with.
We're lucky to have such dumb adversaries and slanderers, but it's so funny.
And I can't believe these thoughts don't occur to them before they go out in public and try to say like they don't, it doesn't occur to them that him and Anna are telling two totally different stories about what happened.
And the one he thinks is a gotcha secures that I'm telling the same story, the truth.
All right, let's keep going.
And we only do these segments after they go for a month straight.
Okay, finally, we'll correct the record because we have a news program to do, right?
So she says that.
So as you can see, already out of the gate.
The idea of blackmail is absurd.
It's totally absurd.
It's not true on the facts as we start.
Okay, now let's get to Glenn.
So he sees that instead, he says this.
You see what she did there?
Now, since this DM was sent, Jimmy anticipatorily went and showed his audience this threat, which is what this is, that she sent him a threat that she's going to accuse him of sexual harassment.
No, that's not what happened at all.
And there's no anticipatory anything.
Jimmy just came out and admitted that he did it.
Right?
And by the way, some of the things he said in that.
What Jimmy admitted was that he was, someone exposed themselves to him, his boss at work, exposed him, exposed herself to him in the workplace, and Jimmy made a joke.
That's what Jimmy admitted.
Jimmy didn't admit anything else.
By the way, Anna has a totally different story than you, Jenk.
Anna says that didn't happen.
Here we go.
Hell, we're not even true.
So Anna wasn't going to say that.
Okay.
Okay, so there you go.
Here we keep going.
That's your big hero right there that does that to women, looks up their skirt, and then so now he's saying I was looking up their skirt.
Now he just keeps making things up.
That's again, well, Anna said that never happened.
Anna said that no one looked up her skirt.
No one even mentioned her skirt.
That's what Anna's saying now, which is a lie.
And Jenk Ugard, they didn't coordinate their lies.
So Jenk is out there saying, I looked up her skirt.
Anna's out there saying, no, he didn't.
They can't even get their fucking lies straight.
Oh, my God.
That's amazing.
Because here, so he's saying I looked up her skirt, and here's what Anna says.
And as I was walking in with them, that was when he made the comment.
And he didn't make a comment about a news skirt.
He made a comment about how sexy my legs were in front of my students.
And it was degrading, obviously.
And I want my students to respect me and take me seriously.
Maybe you don't do McCarthyite smears and then blackmail people who are criticizing you.
Maybe you don't do that.
Maybe that would.
Maybe you don't.
Maybe you don't expose yourself at work in front of your students.
Maybe you don't do that.
These women with their legs and don't they have a dress code, though?
Don't they have a dress code?
There's nothing wrong with she asked, don't these women with their legs and their short skirts, don't they have a dress code at that news station?
That's what Anna asks.
One off your legs, but don't do it when you pretend as if you're one of the platforms for family values.
That skirt is insane.
So there's Anna Kasparian demeaning other women who do the news about their clothes.
That's what she's doing.
Basically making the exact same joke that you did.
She's making the exact same show.
I'm going, hey, Anna, but I said it in a nicer way.
I said, hey, Anna, nice news skirt.
When what it was was, hey, Anna, your skirt is insane, which is what she said.
That's what Anna said.
That's the word she would use.
And you also apologized.
She works at CSUN, right?
California College, State College.
And this is it.
Employee handbook, including human resource policies, personal appearance.
Dress, grooming, and personal cleanliness standards contribute to the morale of all employees and affect the business image we present.
During business hours, employees are expected to present clean and neat appearance and to dress according to the requirements of their positions.
Employees of some units are expected to wear uniforms.
Employees who do not have a uniform are expected to dress professional or business casual attire.
Jeans may be worn on Fridays.
Employees who appear to work inappropriately, inappropriately dressed, it says it right in their handbook.
There's the word that triggers Kyle Kalinsky into punching men in the face.
Inappropriate.
Employees who appear for work inappropriately dressed will be sent home and directed to return to work in proper attire.
Here's a professional business casual dresser.
What is that an example?
The following are examples of inappropriate attire at any time.
Micro or mini skirts.
There it is.
Now, I never had a problem with the way Anna Cook's Kasparian dressed at work.
I don't care how any woman dressed at work.
I never talked about it.
I never mentioned it.
I never complained.
I never went to human resources.
I never complained to anybody, but I never said it out loud to anybody else that somebody was dressing inappropriately.
That's not my gig.
That's not what I do.
I said that because I had to set the context of Anna trying to blackmail me.
I had to show that story.
I had to tell that story.
So there you go.
I just want to show you that.
And I don't care how any woman dresses at work.
And I never did.
Okay.
One of our own has been asked to pose for Playboy.
And it's not, of course, not me.
So who was it?
So I just want to show you this is the environment that they had at the Young Turks.
Now, I've showed you all the gross stuff.
Jenk saying that he wouldn't do certain women.
They showed revenge porn on the Young Turks.
They showed pictures upskirt of celebrities, their naked vaginas, and they would rate them and B-rate them and say how ugly they were.
And Anna would always say their cooches looked old.
And so I just, so here's another example.
I just want to give you another example of here's Jenk humiliating a new hire woman on camera.
This isn't behind the scenes.
This is on camera.
Watch this.
This is the environment that they felt comfortable doing on camera.
Imagine what was happening.
So this idea that nice news skirt was some kind of out of the bounds of ordinary behavior at the Young Turks is crazy.
The reason why it became a deal was because she got embarrassed because she was exposing herself at work.
Okay.
Yeah, right.
You tell me.
Who was it?
Kim Horsham.
Damn.
She's officially part of the crew for like three days.
Do you see how embarrassed she was?
She put her hands over her face.
How embarrassed could that woman be?
What are you doing, bringing this up?
Look at her.
She doesn't want this brought up.
Half days, and all of a sudden, boom, Playboy out of the.
So what happened, Kim?
I got an email from someone at playboy.com that said, hey, we're doing a special edition of Women of YouTube.
Are you interested?
Wow.
Yeah.
So do we know it's for real?
Well, it is a legit email address.
I've been, I went to this website where I guess models talk to each other online.
And they were saying, like, oh, I got an email from this address.
What do I do?
Is it real?
It turns out it is real.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
And do we have a sense of the price?
The price.
I did not inquire because I am not interested in doing this.
Oh, well, first of all, you should definitely inquire no matter what.
Because now, for a couple of different reasons.
One, we're just all curious.
How much would they be offering, right?
And number two, you should always know your options.
I mean, what if it was one million dollars?
I mean, you knew it for a billion, right?
I feel like it's a career killer.
What career?
Wait a minute.
No, look, let me go.
Easy.
No, no, no, no.
Let me explain.
Oh!
I'm sorry.
Come on.
And she's been working here for three days.
And he's calling.
And again, he's going on camera and calling someone else a dirtbag.
And he's going to call someone else.
That guy's going to call someone else a dirtbag after he did that to that new hire.
That woman had been working there for three days.
God.
And he just humiliated her on camera.
He never apologized.
Three weeks.
She's been working there for three days.
Oh, three weeks?
I thought he said three days.
It doesn't matter.
Okay, here we go.
And by the way, there's two really important things here.
One is, why is he calling it a news skirt?
Because the humiliation comes in, you're not a real news person.
You're just here for all the men to leer at you.
That's why I looked up your skirt and had a big laugh about it.
So that's, again, Anna's going to dishe's going to say that Jenk's story isn't true.
This is what happened.
And as I was walking in with them, that was when he made the comment.
And he didn't make a comment about a news skirt.
Jenkins, your story isn't even right.
So according to Anna, I didn't say that.
So the story you're telling that shows I'm a dirtbag, Anna says this isn't true.
That didn't happen.
I didn't look up her skirt and I didn't say nice news skirt, according to Anna.
So they can't even get their fucking lies straight.
When you're going to fabricate a hashtag Me Too, you guys should get together and talk, work it out.
Don't send a guy a DAM blackmailing him the night before you try to do it because he's going to expose that.
And Glenn Greenwald exposed it.
I encourage everyone to go watch Glenn Greenwald.
And I just want to show you, Jenk Uger's calling me a dirtbag.
Here we go.
I can't imagine that we go to a family dinner and my sister's got a short skirt on with no underwear.
And people are constantly taking shots of her at this angle.
And she still has no underwear.
I mean, I wouldn't allow it, man.
Right.
You know, I'm the most legal guy in the world.
And I'd be like, no, bitch, get your shit straightened out, okay?
You are not to go outside the house anymore without panties on.
Right.
I totally agree with you.
At the same time, I want to give her credit for something.
Oh, you do?
Facts?
I do.
Unfortunately, we're not able to see it on YouTube, but if you go on our website, theyngturks.com, you can see it uncensored.
So what she's saying is if you go to our website, we're going to show you a naked photo of a woman's vagina that was taken up her skirt without her consent.
We can't show it on YouTube, but we can show it at theyoungturks.com and they laugh about it.
That's the kind of pigs I'm dealing with.
That's the kind of pig environment they created at the Young Turks.
Okay?
Now, I bet you've guys seen the other videos.
I have a million videos that is worse than this.
But I just wanted to show you, that's what they did on the regular.
They posted naked pictures of women's vaginas that were taken against their consent up their skirt.
And she's telling everyone, go to our website to look at it.
Here we go.
And a point that I want to make about it is, for somebody who seems like she hasn't really been taking care of herself for a while, she is perfectly, perfectly hairless.
I know.
I know that's an odd point to make.
But I mean, could you imagine if she didn't groom herself and she didn't wear any underwear?
Whatever.
Put up the censored picture here.
He says, okay.
She looks beat.
I don't care if you don't have any hair down there.
She looks terrible.
Her legs are like fatty and creamy and pale and disgusting.
And then her hair is screwed up and her face looks bad.
She looks so bad there that I wouldn't even do her.
Wow.
Can you imagine?
So that's the kind of pigs that they are.
Okay.
They post revenge porn, upskirt foes.
And then, of course, they do projection, as Carl Jung has taught us.
So Jenk, every time he criticizes me, is projecting his inner creep.
And that's what that is.
Okay.
So she has to be a bit more.
That was about Britney Spears, who was dealing, obviously, as we all know now, with really serious issues.
Yeah, she was dealing with mental issues, and there they are humiliating her.
They helped control.
I mean, that's what they're doing on camera.
Yeah.
That's what they're doing on camera.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
And here's one more.
So she has a disastrous performance on the Video Music Awards.
And how does she decide is a good way to make up for that, Anna?
She flashes more coochie.
This is from last night.
More cooch.
More cooch.
This is unbelievable.
I mean, look, she's just flat.
And they're zooming in.
And then you go to their website and they're going to take that white circle away.
Very moral.
Flashing us.
Look, she's just flat out flashing us.
I mean, she's become Uncle Creepy Tom.
By the way, you know, you saw the blocked out pictures there because we can't put up naked pictures on YouTube.
So we're putting up the actual pictures, the uncensored versions, on theyoungturks.com.
So you see a link to it, and you can check it out there on theyoungturks.com.
But honestly, I mean, what are you going to see?
So that's what they did.
That's who we're dealing with.
Those guys are, I would call that criminal that they did that.
I don't think, how is that legal?
That's beyond being a pornographer.
A pornographer gets consent.
Jenk doesn't have consent to do that.
These people are pigs.
And they're trying to slime me because they got caught smearing Aaron Mate.
That's what this is all about.
And now everybody's talking about Anna's skirt instead of talking about them smearing Julian Assange and McCarthy smearing Aaron Mate and his work in Syria.
That's what, and that's so that's successful.
I have to do this video showing you what pigs they are.
I have to keep constantly showing you that their stories don't match up because I have to defend myself from a fabricated smear, a hashtag me too.
I have to defend myself.
And there's no playbook on how to do this.
But luckily, they're such fucking morons that they contradict themselves over and over and over again.
And so no one believes them.
And so now what they're so now Jenk is trying to convince everyone that Julian Assange cannot be trusted.
Aaron Mate cannot be trusted.
And Glenn Greenwald cannot be trusted.
Those are three of our most celebrated journalists of this generation right now.
And it's Jenk.
So Jenk, that's a heavy lift.
That's a heavy lift.
Okay, here we go.
You know, Jimmy, I wouldn't put myself in the same category as Julian and Glenn.
Of course not.
You're not.
But what's so funny about that Jenk clip in that video that he just made, he actually says that because Glenn has come out and criticized him, that he isn't sure if he can trust any of Glenn's reporting anymore.
Ever.
Yeah.
Ever.
So it's like, does that mean that maybe Lula shouldn't be out of prison at Baltimore maybe really is a great guy?
That maybe it's okay that the NSA is spying on us and all these other amazing stories that Glenn has broke, including the NSA story for which he won the Pulitzer Prize.
Is Drank really now trying to say that we should trust all that just because Glenn called out Jenk for lying about me and then promoting a lie about you?
It's these are clowns we're dealing with.
And it's important that we correct them.
I mean, A, because we, you know, like if someone's smearing you, you have to correct them.
You can't tolerate that.
And for me personally, the reason why, you know, it's especially important for me is because to me, there's no distinction between the lie that they told about me and the lie that they told about you.
It's a part of the same thing.
They wouldn't have lied about you if they hadn't smeared me first and weren't desperate to change the subject.
That's why they came out with this smear of you.
And that's why when Jank made that whole video, whatever, how long that was half an hour, talking fine to Glenn Greenwald and saying these new lies about you and contradicting Anna's lie.
That's why they don't even mention what started this whole thing, which is them lying about me because they can't obviously, it's so ridiculous and everyone knows how dumb that was.
So they have to pretend that didn't happen.
Yes.
Now, when you're dealing with a Me Too thing, that's a lot more sensitive because of the culture that's been built up around Me Too.
And, you know, for, you know, we've developed a culture now where naturally any Me Too allegation that we just believe and there's both good in that and there's also bad.
And the bad in this case is that when it gets cynically weaponized by people like the young Turks to deflect from them being caught smearing me, it becomes really, really toxic.
And people have a harder time speaking out against that.
So it's important that we don't give them an inch and don't let these cynical hacks weaponize such a serious thing.
And fortunately for us, it's so easy to correct because as you've just demonstrated, their own lies contradict each other.
Let me see.
I might have a video of him saying just that.
And you just heard me call Jimmy alt-left.
And I decided that actually is, you know, a pretty good term for them because they live in an alternate reality.
There's a real left with Bernie Sanders and AOC and Nina Turner and Ryan Grimm and David Sirota and us where we're trying to do something constructive in the world, where we're actually trying to pass bills.
And yes, we even hold those people accountable as we did in the $15 minimum wage fight.
How did you hold him accountable?
He's neither here nor there, but he didn't hold anybody accountable.
We're trying to do something constructive by inventing lies about journalists who go to Syria and challenge the establishment narrative that is used to sustain dirty wars and sanctions and then making up a fake Me Too allegation.
We're trying to do something progressive in the world.
That's the progressive.
Be a part of our progressive movement where we lie about people who don't want to go along with Trump administration bombings and sanctions.
That's how progressive we are.
First, we union bust and then we smear anti-people who are calling out imperialism.
You don't want to be part of that?
How about you want to do a camel toe segment?
How about we what is it you want to be part of?
Here we go.
Bernie Sanders and the Justice Democrats we help get elected accountable because you need to pass the bills.
Because guys, if we don't pass bills, all this is academic.
It's about everybody's ego.
Who cares about people's ego?
Pass the goddamn bills, right?
Nope, nope, nope.
We got to tear everybody down.
And in our alternate reality.
You got to tear everybody down, call them Russians, say they're working for Assad.
Say this guy said nice news skirt.
Say McCarthy can become speaker.
We got to tear everybody down.
It's say it into a mirror.
The most important thing in the progressive movement is Jimmy Doar's feelings.
That is so sad and sick.
So they've eased.
Who says the most important thing in the progressive movement is Jimmy Doar's feelings?
If anything, Jimmy Doerr has been a punching bag on the left since he started Force to Vote in the establishment.
And guys like you who are the Jenkins, the establishment, is coming at me.
Jenk works for Kaksenberg.
Katzenberg gave him $20 million.
He has a board with billionaires on it.
He is the establishment.
He's not independent news.
He's corporate news.
And he is pushing imperialism in Syria.
He was always for bombing in Syria.
He's smearing guys like Julian Assange and Aaron Mate, who are the anti-imperialists.
And so this is crazy what he's doing.
This is nothing, there's nothing left or progressive about Jenk Uger.
Yeah, and one minimally important thing that we're saying is a requirement for the progressive movement is not lying about people, not slandering people, not trying to ruin the careers of people who, in my case, go to Syria to try to report on a dirty war that this government was involved in.
He's talking, he's saying that we're here that we care about feelings.
No, we care about facts.
Yeah.
And not trying to lie about people and make up just malicious smears about them to taint real journalism.
Like that's what we're trying.
That's what we're trying to defend here.
So again, when people say that this is drama and about feelings, it's not about feelings, about politics.
A, we have to defend ourselves.
And B, I don't want to be a part of a leftist movement where it's okay to lie about people if you don't like their politics.
I'm fine to debate Syria with anybody.
I mean, personally, I don't want to be in a leftist movement that supports and whitewashes dirty wars and other sadistic acts around the world.
But I'm willing to debate those things.
What is not tolerable is inventing lies about people who hold different points of view than you.
And that's a simple point that McCarthy's like Jank can't process in their heads.
And hence they have these ongoing meltdowns where they keep just lying because that's all they can do.
And that title of the alt left.
And by the way, if you want to be in there and you want to be, oh, yeah, yeah, no, no, no.
Those things don't matter.
The only thing that matters is the cult of Jimmy Doar, which I can't believe Glenn Greenwald has joined.
Jesus, Glenn, you have no self-respect at all.
A lot of people have lost their self-respect in this fight.
It's really sad.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
A lot of people have lost their self-respect.
Oh, yeah.
A lot of other people.
Do Jenk look like a guy who has self-respect?
No.
I mean, look at him.
Look at him.
So let's keep going.
What Anna Kasparian did here with that little message.
I've not said this about you.
I've kept it to myself.
Now that you're criticizing us, that's all going to change.
That is grotesque.
That is ethically repugnant.
But it is also commonplace in liberal left politics.
So he's talking about the DM she sent me that was threatening me.
Hey, you've been criticizing our bad journalism.
Well, guess what?
I'm going to weaponize this hashtag me too against you and fabricate a phony charge.
And he said that's despicable.
He just said that.
That's the worst thing you can do.
And he's right.
And watch what Jenk says.
Commonplace in liberal left politics.
So apparently we're all guilty.
Right?
Kavanaugh's innocent.
Jimmy Doerr is innocent.
But Anna is grotesque and morally repugnant.
Guys, you all get to make a choice here.
And if you say, yeah, I agree with Glenn, go have at it, hoss.
But it says something about you.
If you can't tell who's the morally repugnant one in this story, we can tell.
Oh, by the way, again, with the she's grotesque.
Go ahead.
The more serious he gets, the funnier he is.
The more he straight faces this shit, the funnier it is.
It is.
It is funny.
Here's some more.
She's grotesque.
And when I say she, I mean the version of the lie that she's telling.
Not the version of the lie that I'm telling.
My version of life contradicts her version of life.
So let's go with her version of the lie for this little segment of my monologue.
People who have no evidence just throw around these words, trying to attach it to that person.
That person is a groomer.
That person is an abuser.
That person harasses.
That person is emotionally toxic.
And instantly, their reputation is destroyed.
No evidence is required.
No evidence.
He said it over and over and over again.
Well, knowing there was tremendous evidence that the guy he's defending had already said it.
Whatever Glenn was, he's certainly not a journalist.
So.
So that's this is this is his big push.
This is a big lift.
You got to convince people Julian Assange is not a good journalist.
You got to convince people that Glenn Greenwald is not a good journalist.
And you got to convince people that Erin Matei is not that.
This is a big, heavy lift, Jenkin.
I'm at tip of the hat.
So this is Blue Check Beth put this out.
It's called Jenk vs.
Jenk.
And so what Jenk is doing and Jenkins Anna are doing right now, he's going to describe.
Watch.
So when I talk to progressive commentators, or I argue back for them, people I like a lot in the past, right?
And I still like them, and we're going to get over it and stuff.
But as I see them say things are sexist when they know for a fucking fact it ain't sexist, right?
And they make charges they know for a fact aren't true.
It's the one thing if a friend of mine who's not knee-deep in politics makes a charge that he just heard that somewhere.
He heard it on TV.
That's, I'll, you know, we'll, I'll, we'll straighten that out eventually, right?
But if someone kind of knows, but is playing dirty pool, that's different.
Okay, right.
Well, look, the sexism charges.
Okay, here's how I feel about them, okay?
I don't give a fuck what you think, okay?
Because if because I already know you're playing dirty pool.
So if you made a legitimate charge and say, hey, Jenk, you see how you phrase that?
That that's an issue?
I'd go, oh my God, you're right.
I'm sorry.
I didn't think about that.
That's such a great point.
And we'll fix that going forward, right?
And I know you play that kind of dirty pool, right?
And then you're going to turn around and tell me, oh, now you better bow your head.
Otherwise, wait, wait, wait.
Otherwise, I'll smear you as a sexist.
Come at it.
Come and get a piece, motherfucker.
He's describing exactly what they did to me.
Hey, you better bow your head.
You better quit your criticism, or we're going to smear you.
That's exactly what they did.
Anna Kasparin sent me the DM saying, you've been running your mouth, and now we're going to smear you for it.
We're not going to ever answer back the charges you made.
We're just going to smear you.
Hey, Cenk.
So, and then he goes, says this.
Okay.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Was that sexist?
Let me add to that.
I mean, I want, like, you know, because we mentioned fucking mothers.
I don't know.
Maybe that was sexist.
Maybe they'll talk about how that was sexist.
I'm sure.
I'm sure they will.
And the horse you rode in on.
If they might be on some pulse.
Jenk's talking about horse fucking again.
You know, that's his groove.
So I wanted to show that to you.
I mean, it's, there's a, he's just like Trump.
For everything they do, there's a video that Jenk did worse.
Every accusation they hurl at someone, there's a video they did worse.
And there it is.
There's Jenk Uger telling you.
And here he is talking about fucking mothers.
And you see my hand.
I'm like, oh my God, would you shut up?
So I don't know if Glenn lied on purpose so that he could protect Jimmy from further sexual harassment claims.
I don't know of any.
I hope he didn't do it.
I hope to God he didn't do it, but God, I don't know.
I don't know any about Jimmy.
I don't know anything about Glenn.
I thought I knew these guys and apparently none of us ever knew him at all.
Monsters.
Monsters.
So me and Glenn are monsters.
So now, as you saw there in the earlier clip, Glenn said, you know, she didn't speak out.
It's basically, he seems like he's blaming her.
He does the standard caveats in the video.
I'll be way more fair than him.
So in the video, he says a couple of times, yeah, it happens with women.
Sometimes it happens with women that they don't say anything about sexual harassment.
They come out later.
But in the case of Anna, maybe it happened, baby, it didn't.
What do I do?
Would I watch it?
No, I didn't watch it.
So, what?
In case you were unaware of it, here's Jimmy again admitting.
She got humiliated in the middle of the newsroom, and I did it with the joke.
The joke was nice news skirt, and everyone laughed.
And the next line I said when I said, and I did it, and so I felt bad, which is why I apologized.
That's the part he cut out.
That's the part.
Wait, Jimmy, did he really just play a like a two second?
Two seconds.
How long is that clip?
What is that?
Two seconds?
Yeah.
He basically says, I did it.
I did it.
I did it.
Jenkins like the smoking gun.
We got him.
He admitted it.
Yeah.
He admitted it.
So here we go.
Glenn, you call yourself a journalist?
Pathetic.
Absolutely pathetic.
He's calling Glenn Greenwald pathetic.
This is sad.
This is funny.
This is good stuff.
This is good stuff.
And Jenk delivers it with a straight face, which is the key to comedy.
And he's doing it.
He's amazing.
There's more.
Come on.
This is fun.
Okay.
And by the way, they say, and this is another thing that I have to confess drives me crazy.
Oh, young Turks and Jimmy are in this fight and it's a soap opera.
We didn't start this.
We don't do this on the regular show.
We do this once a month after they've piled up all of these lies, all these falsehoods, et cetera.
they do it every day, all day long.
That's all they do.
Guys, wake up if you're not actually part of the alt-left.
Wakey, wakey.
When's the last time they actually did anything constructive?
All right.
Forced the vote.
So now, I didn't tell you something.
I didn't tell you this, and I'll confess it now on your show.
I'll break some news.
We didn't tell you, but Glenn and I were in Los Angeles, and we actually infiltrated the young Turks' office.
And we told Jank and Anna to call me an asset of the Russian government.
So we started this whole thing.
We got Jank to do this.
It was all my plan.
So when Jenk says he didn't start that, he's right.
I got Jank to call me a Russian asset and Brandon declaimed that I'm working for Dick Teaters.
And Glenn was in on it too.
I'm sorry we didn't tell you.
I also got Anna to say that I wasn't a good person.
I was a grifter and I shouldn't be trusted around Force to Vote.
And then I also told Jenk to say McCarthy could become speaker around Force to Vote.
So there's a lot of things that he is right.
We did start it.
We started it.
It's amazing.
It's amazing.
Okay, here we go.
Okay.
And by the way, they say, and this is another thing.
Wait, hang on.
So he goes, when toxic people attack you online, you're put in a damned if you do, damned if you won't situation.
They make up horrible accusations and outrageous lies about you.
If you don't respond, people start to believe it's true.
You didn't say anything.
If you do respond, well, it's great.
You retweeted it.
You said, Jenk, thanks for much for speaking out against toxic people who make up horrible accusations and outrageous lies.
I've been dealing with a McCarthyite smear artist who claims that I'm paid by the Russians and refused to apologize.
Any advice on how I should respond?
Perfect.
I don't know what to say.
They said Aaron Mate yelled at me.
Oh, Aaron Mate lied.
Oh, Aaron Mate.
Everyone cares what Aaron Mate has to say, right?
The guy who denies that Syrian children were killed with chemical attacks.
Yeah, fuck Aaron Mate.
Yeah, fuck you.
Anyway, let's end the freaking pot.
I can't.
I can't.
Okay, see, that's what happened.
I can't stand, I can't stand that guy.
And I can't stand.
So that's enough.
And all they had to do is going forward, guys.
Apologize.
All I had to do was say, hey, we're going to be able to do that.
Please apologize.
We got upset.
We lost our heads.
I don't care if they don't like me, if they don't like my journalism.
That's fine.
I'll live without their approval.
But, you know, I can't tolerate being slandered.
And I asked for an apology.
I wrote them a polite email asking for an apology and they just ignored it because these people are not dealing in the reality that we're dealing with.
They have an agenda.
They don't want our kind of point of view to exist in the left.
And that's why you have to make up lies to try to smear us and cancel us with McCarthyism.
And that can't be tolerated.
And because they are so committed to that, for whatever reason, I don't know what goes on in their demented minds.
They just won't own up to what started this, which is them slandering me.
And this leads to this continued thing where they just keep doubling down on lies.
And personally, you know, like, I don't like hearing their voices and talking about them, you know, but we will continue to correct them as long as they continue to insist on lying about us.
Yes.
Let me see.
Fire beware.
When you read Glenn or you watch him, you have no idea what he's hiding from you.
I mean, if he could hide this overwhelming evidence and never mention it and keep saying, I don't know if it happened, but implying that it didn't happen.
Maybe it happened.
Maybe it didn't.
Even if you agree with his interpretation of Jimmy's comments, and if you say, hey, go get him, Jimmy, we'll look up everybody's skirt and do it at work.
It's great island.
And you're right-wing or left-wing.
It doesn't matter, right?
But you can't say that Glenn didn't know what happened.
Glenn knows exactly what happened.
Jimmy, can I say something about Glenn here?
So Jenk sits in a multi-million dollar studio, got $20 million from DNC donor Jeffrey Katzenberg, doesn't have to do any journalism.
He just sits in front of a camera and reads what his producers write and whatever comes into his demented mind.
And doesn't even have to really be successful because you look at their numbers.
And again, as I say often, the people watching the Young Turks, at least according to YouTube, it's less than the number of people who are waiting for your pre-show live stream in your chat room.
Okay.
So obviously, Jenkins doesn't have to do very much here.
And then he goes and tries to disparage the work of one of the most important journalists of this generation, Pulitzer Prize winner, and whatever.
Put us at all of Glenn's journalistic accomplishments, you know, like basically breaking the story in Brazil that got Lula Freed exposed a massive criminal scheme inside the Brazilian, the fascist Brazilian government that was trying to lock up the opponents of the establishment, especially Lula, and expose the NSA surveillance program.
He's done so many stories.
There's also the fact that what Glenn lives under, which is serious violent threat, a good friend of Glenn and his husband, Stave Miranda, was a lawmaker in Brazil who was assassinated.
And they live under the constant threat of assassination.
They have for a long time.
They have to travel with security.
And so for Jank to come on TV in his air-conditioned studio in Los Angeles and try to disparage Glenn's journalism and minimize the real sacrifices that Glenn makes for the country he lives in, Brazil, and just for the cause of like truth and accountability around the world.
Like the level of narcissism there and just complete ignorance about anything to do with actual progressive values and politics is stunning.
I agree with you 100%.
It is stunning.
Let's see what this is.
Well, obviously it's hard to tell who's telling the truth here.
But lately, I have to confess that Wikileaks has not had an astounding record.
So this is when Jenk smeared Julian Assange, and you can tell he doesn't believe what he's saying, that he's been given a script and he's signaling to donors or something.
But you can tell that he doesn't believe anything he's saying here as he smears Julian Assange.
The idea is that Julian Assange is now working for Donald Trump.
The way that Assange seems to be backing Donald Trump over and over and over again, it makes me very seriously question Assange's efforts to actually be a journalist and not to be a partisan.
And I get it.
I get why he hates the Democrats.
They're trying to put him in prison.
Okay.
But at the same time.
And now the Republicans are too, and they have been in the past.
But it seems like Assange has picked a side.
And look, it makes me question his reporting.
And so that's the situation we're in now.
So now is he just leaking things that he gets?
And no matter what, in which case I would respect that?
Or is he selectively leaking based on his political motives?
Now that that suspicion is Out there, and it's real, and it's possible.
Well, now I'm concerned that he can't be trusted.
So, there's Julian Assange, Glenn Greenwald, the two most consequential journalists of our generation, and then now award-winning anti-war journalist, independent award winner, Aaron Mate.
So, this is a big lift for him.
I don't know if Jimmy was always this way, and now I'm worried that he was, right?
And I didn't see it.
Glenn, I thought, was a great journalist.
And either he wasn't, and all those old stories, I have no idea what he hid and didn't hide, right?
Or he changed.
Now, it's up to you guys again, one last time, to make the decision.
Who changed for the better, who changed for the worse?
It's up to you to decide.
But for now, this is the end of this chapter, and it's certainly the end of any respect I had for Glenn Greenwald.
It's become a very, very sad embarrassment.
Thanks for watching The Young Turks.
Really appreciate it.
Another way to show support is through YouTube memberships.
You'll get to interact with us more.
There's live chat emojis, badges.
You've got emojis of me, Anna, John JR.
So those are super fun.
But for now, this is the end of this.
Those are super fun.
They're super fun.
What?
Anyway.
Like, can we just say, maybe hold Glenn in our thoughts for a second?
Because he's been through a lot before.
You know, he was threatened with prosecution.
He was threatened with prosecution in Brazil during the NSA scandal.
He couldn't travel out of fear of being arrested.
But nothing compares to Jank saying that he's lost respect for Glenn.
I mean, this has got to be devastating for Glenn.
And let's hold Glenn Greenwald in our thoughts as he tries to recover.
I don't know how he's going to get losing respect for him.
This is going to be hard.
This is going to be a deal.
Very hard.
Caitlin Johnson.
Jimmy, you know, like that clip you played of them talking about Assange?
Yeah.
Right.
And there's like that on the screen behind them, it says campaign hacks.
Yeah.
Right?
In big letters.
They should take out the word campaign and just keep the word hack there.
That's right.
In front of Jank and Anna when they talk.
And by the way, they were making those claims about Julian Assange in response to the dumbest story of all time in The Guardian by Luke Harding, a serial fabulist who came out with this article in The Guardian saying that Julian Assange met with Paul Manafort.
Trump's campaign manager.
Trump's campaign manager said that Paul Manafort had visited him at the Ecuadorian embassy three times, but there's no photos or video of it, and there was no documentation, but that they printed the story in The Guardian and the young Turks repeated that story breathlessly as I debunked it in their same studio earlier that day.
Yeah.
And they just repeated it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, here, let me imagine if all the people yelling that it's time to move on from TYT smearing Aaron Matei as a secret agent of foreign dictators had from the very beginning just spent all that energy telling Jank and Anna they need to retract and apologize for a discussion.
Because a lot of people are going around saying, oh, would you stop talking about this?
Oh, please.
And she says, well, imagine if all those people yelling about that would have just told Jank and Anna to fucking knock it off.
We could have stopped this a long time ago.
If left indie media had simply united along the very simple and obvious, no, we don't accuse leftist anti-war journalists of being secret agents for foreign governments, this would have resolved very quickly and wouldn't have gotten anywhere near as vicious as it did.
TYT defenders have been trying to make this about Jimmy Dore because A, it's easier than defending what they did.
And B, because Jimmy was the most prominent voice doing what everyone should have been doing and pushing for a retraction.
He shouldn't have had to stand alone there.
Exactly.
That's really the entire story of what this has been about from the very beginning.
TYT swear to journalists as a secret agent of foreign governments, refused to retract or apologize, and then started using blackmail to silence those criticizing them.
Don't let them complicate this.
So that's correct.
Thank you, Caitlin.
She's so great with words.
And thank you, Aaron, for being here.
I want to end this.
Hey, Vladimir Putin's on the phone.
Hello.
Hello, Jimmy.

How's it going?
I'm excited to be here.
By the way, LinkedIn just notified me that this is your 10-year work anniversary.
Congratulations on being tapped in.
Go-to guy who really understands process.
That must be another Jimmy Dore.
Do not be so modest, Jimmy.
For according to your bio, you're a motivated self-starter who really gets the input.
A real stand-up guy in and out of the office, setting listens for this sweet spot in every idea.
Yeah, that's not me, Vladimir.
Hey, will you endorse my skills?
Please.

This is something from LinkedIn, right?
