Cenk hosting today.  Pressure to veto the religious freedom bill is coming down hard on Arizona governor Jan Brewer from businesses.  Cenk thinks this is a clear indication that she will definitely veto the bill, as money is what truly runs the Republican Party.  McCain also pointed out that the entire business community is seriously galvanized behind vetoing the bill.  State Sen Al Melvin was dismantled by Anderson Cooper for his continued support of this discriminatory bill against the LGBT community.  Videos of his embarrassing appearance.  Good news out of the defense dept, as Hagel announced we plan to reduce the numbers of active duty soldiers to spend military money in more necessary areas.  Conservatives like Rubio, McCain, Hannity, and Dick Cheney, are losing their minds over this, as their fears rise.  Videos of John McCain and Cheney lamenting the idea of lowering unnecessary troop levels, while using American money on domestic issues.  A very successful South Korean pastor has been busted for stealing tons of money from the church.  WWJD?? Cenk asks if Jesus Godoy would take 3 years in jail for the $45 million this shady pastor gets to keep.  The most gruesome Muslim terrorist group, Boko Haram, has just pulled off a firebombing of a Nigerian elementary school which burned the children inside.  They did this under the belief that anyone who doesn’t live under Islam needs to be destroyed.  A blind man was acquitted of shooting and killing his friend when they got into an altercation, and after the trial, his weapons were returned.  A man accidentally shot and killed himself while teaching his girlfriend about gun safety.  In order to teach her that unloaded guns are safe, he pulled the trigger on three “unloaded” guns with them pointed to his head, and the third discharged a bullet that blew his head off. Gov Walker of Wisconsin is wading in even more trouble over his email scandals surrounding his office and staff.  Latest emails reveal racist and homophobic emails from his chief of staff.   Look for TYT Announcements from Ambassador Jeni here: http://bit.ly/TYTForum
