Progressive media personality Cenk Uygur told The Hill on Wednesday that he is ending his long-shot Democratic presidential bid. The Young Turks” host, who was born in Turkey and is therefore not eligible to become president due to the Constitution’s “Natural Born Citizen” Clause, had attempted to launch a legal battle to gain ballot access across the country. “Look, we needed a couple of miracles,” Uygur said in a “The Young Turks” interview later Wednesday. “This was an act of desperation to try to change the course of this campaign because Biden I was positive was going to lose.” Uygur...

“The Young Turks” founder Cenk Uygur announced on his show Wednesday that he will run for president as a Democrat, directly challenging President Biden. “[Biden] is not going to win,” Uygur said during the announcement. “It should not have been me, it should have been somebody else, but unfortunately it was not anyone else. There’s only four months left. We must change course. He has at best a 10 percent chance of winning. I’m running as a proxy. I am running to win. But I am also running as a proxy for any other candidate.” The progressive media host has...

The old rule about incumbents was that if they are under 50 points in approval, they're toast. President Joe Biden is under 40. There's almost no chance he's going to win. I've never heard of an incumbent polling under 40 points who went on to win reelection. When it comes to Joe Biden, three in six recent polls had him in the thirties. In one recent poll, President Biden was at an abysmal 32 percent. MAGA should be doing everything they can to keep Biden in the race. He's their only hope. President Biden needs to step down immediately and...

VIDEOChunk Yogurt aka Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks recently appeared on "The Hill Rising" hyping a book he wrote. At first things went slightly normal for Chunk but after the first mention of the taboo name of "Jimmy Dore," Chunk was hilariously triggered into a series of bizarre meltdowns. One big cause for Chunk going BERSERK over hearing Jimmy's name is that Dore grabbed a big chunk of Chunk's TYT audience resulting in The Jimmy Dore show by far exceeding in traffic Chunk's dwindling audience. Chunk's mind has been so DESTROYED by jealousy over the overwhelming success of Jimmy...

Cenk Uygur, founder and host of the progressive outlet "The Young Turks," condemned far-left rhetoric against police in a Tuesday tweet. "Will people who came up with 'Defund the Police' slogan admit they were wrong? It was wildly counterproductive framing," he said in the post. "You don't speak for the left. And neither do people pushing the counterproductive 'Abolish Prisons.' Polls show that almost no one on the left agrees with you." Uygur warned further that people who use that variety of rhetoric do not speak for the American left as a whole. "You can't claim to speak for the...

Filmmaker and director of the Marvel Universe’s 'Black Panther’ movies Ryan Coogler was falsely arrested at an Atlanta bank after the teller mistook him for a bank robber after he passed a note to her.

On Monday Kyle Rittenhouse explained his new project and defamation lawsuits in the works against Whoopi Goldberg, Cenk Uygur, and other targets. Kyle Rittenhouse hinted that he may take action against the many leftwing politicians and operatives who smeared him as a murderer. The list included Joe Biden who called him a white supremacist in a campaign ad.

Cenk Uygur’s lack of compassion or sensitivity regarding the death of 2012 presidential candidate Herman Cain Thursday evening is not only disgusting but displays a deeply rooted issue in the world today. “Before he died @THEHermanCain said his God was stronger than #coronavirus. Coronavirus disagreed. #ScienceIsReal”, Uygur tweeted Thursday evening. Cain died Thursday morning at the age of 74 after a month-long battle with Coronavirus, according to Newsmax. The fact that Cenk would use the death of a nationally known figure for both a political stab and an attempt to mock people of faith is utterly repulsive. Mr. Uygur’s behavior...

Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur, hosts of the Young Turks, urged Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) to target Joe Biden’s “obvious” “mental decline” during their Democrat primary election coverage livestream on Tuesday. “[Bernie Sanders] has got to get out of that comfort zone,” said Kasparian, noting Sanders’ refusal to highlight Biden’s frequent misstatements and slurred speech as evidence of the former vice president’s impaired cognition. “He’s got to hit [Joe Biden] where it hurts.”

Now Muslim Democrat and “Young Turks” founder, is already finding himself at the center of bizarre controversy involving past statements he made over bestiality during a live program.

Cenk Uygur, Mark Thompson, and John Iadarola, hosts of The Young Turks, say Republicans are getting more fascist by the day. Uygur said by nature conservatives are authoritarian so they want a leader to take over and lead. CENK UYGUR: By nature conservatives are authoritarian so they want a leader to take over and lead. So to them, checking with Congress, that's a pain in the ass. They just don't fundamentally believe in the concept of democracy as much as we do. You can go ahead and cry about that but that's the nature of conservativism that you believe in...

Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz, Aida Rodriguez, and Ana Kasparian, hosts of "The Young Turks," break down the winners and losers of Tuesday's Democratic presidential debate from the progressive point of view. "[Sanders] was really strong, he was a fighter tonight, and Elizabeth warren with one great point after another," Uygur said. "Obviously looking at them together fighting off all the Republicans on the stage -- yes I know I said Republicans -- it made me think of, of course, the dream team. So tonight we begin to whisper of a dream that they're together. Obviously, we don't know what form...

Dozens of leftist protesters formed a human wall in downtown Miami, Florida Wednesday night to stop investigative journalist Laura Loomer from confronting The Young Turks during the Democrat Debate. In May, Facebook and Instagram banned Loomer, claiming her account violated its policies against its policies against dangerous individuals and organizations. In response, The Young Turks celebrated the social media giant’s decision to deplatform her and mockingly characterizing her as a right-wing, white supremacist and “conspiracy theorist.” The Young Turks were broadcasting outside the Adrienne Arscht Center in downtown Miami, where the Democratic presidential nominees debated each other for the first...

Cenk Uygur bristles at the notion that the progressive media company he co-founded more than a decade ago, the Young Turks, is becoming the Breitbart of the left—that is, a pugilistic news outlet waging an ideological war with the establishment class. If you ask him, the comparison is backward. "Andrew Breitbart, when he was on my show before he passed away, said they emulated us, not the other way around," Uygur told me in mid-March, after finishing a panel at South by Southwest. "They get a lot of credit now because our idiot president reads them, but in terms of...

Cenk Uygur, host of 'The Young Turks,' explains why Hillary Clinton supporters should be worried about losing.

'The Young Turks' founder Cenk Uygur responds to this footage of an audience both booing and laughing when former Florida Gov. Charlie Crist said he is voting for Hillary Clinton because she is "honest." “They LOL'd," Uygur said. "That's literally a LOL." The prominent Bernie Sanders supporter said it is time for the "Democratic establishment" to admit that they were wrong, that Sanders was the stronger candidate, and if he had been nominated he would be winning right now. "We’ve got 48 days to Armageddon," Uygur said about Trump's impending victory over Clinton. "Get your head out of your--... let’s...
