The Young Turks are fearless in talking about the issues that matter. We are a rare show that combines all of the news that people care about in one place. We cover politics, entertainment, sports, and pop culture; all through a progressive lens.
What does it mean to be a “Young Turk?”
According to the American Heritage Dictionary;
1. Young progressive or insurgent member of an institution, movement, or political party.
2. Young person who rebels against authority or societal expectations.
"Sharp-witted, persuasive, and inspiring, calling out toxic Republicans, politely-ineffectual Democrats, and mealy-mouthed media mavens in equal measure, JUSTICE IS COMING will give heart to Democrats and progressives who seek to change our politics and society for the better.
The media can’t stop talking about the gridlock in Washington, as if a handful of stubborn Republicans are the only thing standing between us and a fully-functional democracy. The reality is that our government has been taken over by big business and their allies in both political parties. The getaway driver in this heist was corporate media. The good news is that the American people are very progressive. And soon progressives will take over Washington as well! And when they do, the great majority of Americans will love it.
In JUSTICE IS COMING: How Progressives Are Going to Take Over the Country and America Is Going to Love It (On sale: September 19, 2023), The Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur presents two ideas that counter everything we hear from pundits and politicians on a daily basis: one, progressives are correct on all issues, and two, America is actually a very progressive country. Millions of us know that we are a part of something larger, a movement that is already transforming Washington.
JUSTICE IS COMING, a compulsively readable manifesto, seeks to apply the momentum progressives have already built to a concrete progressive agenda that activists, voters, and citizens can all rally around. JUSTICE IS COMING looks beyond Trump to the larger historical forces that have given us this unique political moment, and explains why we should fight, how we should fight, and how we will win."

I'm American, and I have been a protester for civil rights for different demographics and progressive causes, but I gotta say, the French protest better than us. I'm jealous
That’s gross
So, a "shit-in" I guess?
"Oh I'm just shitting on the dock of the baaay...watching the tide roooolling awaaay!"
They will start a new pandemic...
They already are in many ways themselves
Here is something..... Don't throw your rubbish in the river and they will not need to spend money cleaning it
Exactly my thought 💭 how hard can it be to throw trash in the trash can 🗑?!
Who do the French citizens think polluted the river in the 1st place? Think about it. They should be grateful because now they have a clean river and the amount of $$$$ the Olympics will bring into Paris I'm sure will surpass what was spent to clean the river.
I'm French, but I live here, and I think the reason we don't protest here the way they do there is because we know our government won't hesitate to lock us up or kill us!
What! You condescended to live among Americans? How gracious! Guess we should feel honored!
We also have armed counter-protesters here sometimes.
Aren't the people from Essone and Saint Denis do that every day ?
The olympics is an olympic sized waste of money. France already had too many tourists, so why buy more?
But still, I wouldn't poop in the Seine; I'd save that for Mar-a-Logo.
There’s no way in hell I’d ever swim in the Seine. No amount of money can clean it up now.
Yeah, agree. I love Paris. But, that river is beyond disgusting.
Cleaned up or not, there's no way I'd swim in the Seine. I'll happily take a nice walk along side it for the view but go in...no.
Another reason not to travel to france
Ahhh the french. I respect their right to protest lol
Because they can!
Hey, homeless people in Paris are already being transferred to other cities in France.😆 Amw, considering how scorching hot Summers in Paris are now, I'm actually praying that the authorities are successful cleaning up the River Seine so we can all be able ro swim in it after the Olympics.🙏🏾
"Seine" means "sane" and to be blunt, without spending money it's not sane to swim there. Push trash away every 3 meters dirty. Wounded feet dirty. Raw sewage dirty.
They should have just made better sewers, much better cleaning per dollar...
Can go from romantic to poopy real quickly in France 😂
What a shitty move.
LOL
Parisians know how to PROTEST! Yo that is wild
Did Biden make a 💩 donation. All makes sense now.
Media giant which needs to beg for money in middle of every video.
Because they are horrible and wrong on every issue. Let Marxist Soros bail their sorry asses out
If they clean up the river, that will be ongoing for those that live there.
Merde
0:43 No, they didn't threaten to do so. And they didn't threaten to do so over money spent on this. They did it as basic hathred of Paris for some people, and basic hathred of Paris' mayor and/or Macron for others. It wasn't a threat, as it would imply "do otherwise, or else"... in this case, it's mainly a response for how angry people are of the politics done by these elected officials for years. Someone said "they put us in shit, let's make them bath in our shit."
Respectfully it’s Hatred not hath-red that’s not a word.
@@simayaturner6648 No I've seen those silly little hats French people wear. I think they are full of "Hath red", _mon Amii_
@@STSWB5SG1FAN They don't wear silly little hats, you nitwit.
Poo, la la
Hey Australian Project TV on TYT ❤😊
sickening shit huh? Terrible TV and movies those asshats put out.
Les Poopiers galore!!
THIS IS HOW I FELT WHEN I BIKED THROUGH FLUSHING MEADOW PARK EVERY AUGUST! New York City would mow the lawn and make it immaculate….for the US open only.
شكرا جزيلا على الفيديو! 🇪🇬
My thoughts and prayers are with those poor fishes that must endure this sad display of animalistic savagery. How disgusting this is.
As an NYC2012 supporter I think it would be unfortunate if the Swim for the Triathlons were cancelled due to water quality… 🍿
WTF 😂😂😂
They are so damned slack over there!
Meanwhile, in the UK
C'est vrai que TYT s'y connait en production de merde
Ana needs to redo that ad-cut. "Thanks for watching" almost caused me to click off because 1) I'm an idiot and 2) it sounded like the story was finished. Have you considered putting it at the beginning or end of the video instead? Do a dummy (me) a favor?
its true, i thought same thing, scrolled down, first comment my thoughts exactly hahahaha. and its a bit weird with the wording, saying they are here to bring you some truths "like our normal shows" hahaha they are well aware the wording is weird haha
The Parisians, not the French. Not the same.
50/50 🫳🫴
At first I thought this going to be disgusting like many French practices are -But it makes a lot of sense!
What French practices are disgusting?
@@Stijn5 Uh, cunnilingus?
Really dissapointed Anna didn't say doo doo
How do you people interrupt your own segment to beg for donations. Put it at the end of the video. Jesus
😂😂😂😂😂
Water travel, if they do poop it could possibly end up in their kitchen sink.
Hello, we don’t pump water from the Seine river to our sink, as well as usually waste water is carried to water treating plant.
Waste water only goes into the river as an overflow, and the people in charge of sewer really hates it when it happens.
This spring we had unusual amount of heavy rain, so the system overflown. Bad design of the new infrastructure ? Probably 😢
There’s a place we you can visit the sewer system in Paris, very interesting.
FTF!
old news, been ten days at least
Sounds like Paris better get their crap together or Parisiens will do it for them... In the river.
"Poopers of the Paris, unite"
Karl Popx
as soon as karen kasparian starts asking me for money i downvote and close down the video
This still seems like a lot better use of money at the Olympics than stadiums that are useless afterwards.
The thing is that they want to spend 1.5 billion dollars on cleaning the river Seine for the Olympics (not even sure that the effort will be maintained once the circus is out of town...) while populations in French overseas territories don't have access to drinkable tap water (Reunion, Mayotte) or have to suffer very frequent water supply interruptions (Guadeloupe, Martinique). We're always told there is not enough public money to fix these problems, but by some sort of magic, there is suddenly a lot of cash on the table to clean the river Seine. The disparities in the government's priorities are striking here.
HELL NO! They should've started cleaning out that river 50 years ago at least if they wanted people to swim in it. I was there in June of 2023 and saw a motorcycle that was pulled from the Seine. There's no way that water is safe!
The French are the best perfume makers for reason.
They built sturgeon county, i mean versailles, to get away from their policies lmfao i mean shit smell! Lmfao
Historically, the French have been known for their abysmal sanitation practices. It was the Romans who introduced a water-filled canal system in an effort to carry away human sewage. Prior to that, the Parisians would simply throw it out of windows (and God help the people walking below!). The invention of the bidet helped with personal hygiene, and potent perfumes took care of the stench. But even today, there is little regard for sewage treatment...and where it goes after the "flush"!!
Can't we just say "defecate" or "excrete" like adults? Why do we have to say "poo" like 12 year olds?
No. Unfortunately, we can't. Just like the adults who are actually doing the act. Welcome to hell world, where adults don't grow up and are just children who gone through puberty.
Because Americans are illiterate and would not understand those words...
When I was 23 I started a corporate job and used to work with a 40 something yr old girl who would come back from the bathroom and say some woman was pooing. I’m like what are you 3. This was like an every week situation.
I think the word "poo" is completely appropriate. I think your bitching is not.
@@IM125 What particular word would you have preferred to use?
"In America, people fear the government. In France, government fears the people." We should be more like France in that respect.
Yea but I prefer government fear the people
Im not shocked. They don’t pick up their dog poop. Or at least they didn’t when I was there.
It’s that way hall over France. Living in a nearby country where it is required to pick up after your dog, I was so grossed out.
@@nancymesekyup. It’s that way hall over…… lol 😂
Its only European country by skin color, otherwise their behaviour doesn't correspond with rest of Europe
It’ll smell like it did 200 years ago. It’ll be like going back in time.
The price has gone over $2.3 billion now…It’s more expensive as a rush job, even though people have asked for decades to fix this problem. 🤗this protest is why I love the French 🥰
It's the poop-ocalypse ...alternative title, "World War Pee"
Imagine the Olympic Games in San Francisco?
This is also a huge problem here in the UK. Water treatment company bosses are getting paid huge bonuses while pumping sewage into our rivers, lakes and seas. My wife does open water swimming, which she took up during the COVID lock down due to public swimming pools being closed. I keep telling her "don't do it!" but she's hooked on it, must be something in the water!
Nobody protests like the French. Everyone else should take notes.
@@marcosolo6491 has there ever been a frenchwoman?
Let's be clear: no normal Parisian wants to take a dip in this sewer.
Nice to see the French have developed some class.
These Olympic Games will deepen our already bloated national debt, rather than diminish it. From a fellow Bordeaux guy.
That is the most moronic thing I have heard of yet. How stupid. "I hate that you spent money so I will make you spend more!!!"
... What can you say, except...
*Viva la résistance!*
A European country by skin color, otherwise the behaviour doesn't correspond with rest of Europe 😅
$2 billion? and the french are revolting like this? The Pentagon just spent $30 billion to develop and built 32 ships thru LCS program and now they are retiring the vast majority of these ships cause they dont them some ships are just 2 years old and they are gonna retire it, they are only keeping 6 or so and because Congress ordered them to do so and not just that, Congress also ordered the Navy to finish building the ones they ordered even the ones that aren't actually being built at the moment.
And this is one program, when it comes to fund food, infrastructure, healthcare, education programs, sorry no money.
We pay our taxes and we get close to nothing or nothing meaningful but mostly nothing.
France has taxes around 45% Denmark too as does other countries but they services REAL returns for the money they put in, nothing perfect but at least they are bankrupting its citizens to transfer billions to corporations.
The Olympics are always a waste of money for the host city, and I don't blame Parisians for not wanting it. Chicago dodged the Olympic bullet a few years ago when we didn't get picked. But crapping in the Seine doesn't seem like the way to go - although it will get the opposition a lot more media coverage.
Build a dam, divert the river, on a dryish river bed, you can see all the waste sources pouring in, then, when you finish, reduce the height of the dam to allow water to flow into the old river bed, and have the dam raise a screen to catch trash that flows over it.
The olympics is always a bad investment. Doesn't bring much economic activity compared to what they spend and then they are left with all that extremely expensive infrastructure to tear down or let crumble after.
Hold up, it's the Olympics already?
They really put the ass in class. Lol
It's a perfectly stupid protest. Clean rivers benefit everyone, people and animals alike. And since we're talking about infrastructure work, it's a long-term benefit.
Is it a shit storm or a shit stream?
Well, it's like when you want to declutter your house, give a party and you will find a way to declutter what you've been procrastinating on. It's not only about marketing, it's human nature!
That's gross
It isn't
Its only European country by skin color, otherwise their behaviour doesn't correspond with rest of Europe as per my exp
So much funnier when covered by John Oliver.
thank you for your understanding, unfortunately our political and press systems are leaning towards the situation that you describe in the USA, defending the rights of Palestine is accused of anti-Semitism here too. A few poopers will have difficulty thwarting the advent of far-right policies. Merci encore pour votre excellent travail d'information
fAr RiGhT!!! 😂😂😂
Meanwhile you Europeans jail women for speaking the truth and let free the Muslims forcing themselves upon them, GD disgrace
I wouldn’t swim in that ever it’s been a working sewer dumping site for years !!
Why? It's money well spent might have prevented a pandemic
it's not. they're doing nothing to really make it clean, just to have it at an acceptable level for the olympics. Our politicians don't care if it's dirty again right after it. if they did they'd regulate more what the industries can throw in it, not just cleaning it up for a few weeks.
The only time in living memory where the water was actually clean was during the covid lockdowns.
4:52 exactly, the homelesness problem in France is far from the sorry state it is in the US, but it didn't stop Macron from spending taxpayer money to send every homeless person they found in Paris elsewhere in France. Not find them homes, just send them to other towns.
The farmers upstream should contribute to this crap show.
British Columbia suffered when Vancouver hosted Expo, the Olympics and now World Cup. The debt was crushing and the homeless were forced out. It's pathetic what the rich do for entertainment.
wait until someone gets the brain-eating Vibrio!
I agree, we don’t need anymore democrat voters!!
I don’t get the logic here. Now they will have to spend even more to clean up
Summertime sadness
Poupon!
Back in the early 90s, Jacques Chirac also promised to swim in the Seine.
He also reneged on that promise. Go figure. 😁
I live in Portugal, our actual president, when was mayor of Lisbon ( probably in the 90s too), pulled that stunt but he really went for it!
It's like when the good China is out for guests and the house is spotlessly clean 😅
The French inventing the shit-in protest
Pooppity-Poop-Poop ??? 🤔
Swimming in a French toilet is nasty 💩💩💩
The French will do it too. Visited Paris in 2019 and they protest every weekend rain or shine. They are joking and this will happen if they get ticked off enough. Man this is really gross. Geeze.
5:30 Hum, I would be very surprised if they fixed homelessness even for a time. What they do in Paris is "encourage" homeless people to go elsewhere. There is also some kind of agreement so they can take the train without a ticket to get away from Paris
Of course money invested to cleaning up the river would have made important advancements if used on the social front, but you cannot say that the current Paris administration is not concerned by the social problems. Also, the money used went mostly (I believe, don't quote me) to a new sewage system connected to a gigantic reservoir destined to hold raining waters in case of major rain to avoid an overpowered sewage system to dump extra load directly into the water (as is was currently doing on a regular basis). The origin of the "movement" was on X, but probably initiated by people who hate mayor Anne Hidalgo because of her policy towards diminishing the place of cars and enhancing the place of biking and parks.
That's a lot of Peppe LePoops
Gross! They need to clean the river. They need to help the people
I remember visiting Beijing prior to their Olympics, they were walling in the slums.
first time they did that was the great wall, they never finished it well enough.
For the past several Olympic years, I've watched and read news stories that shine a light on what a moneymaking racket the Olympics are, and the burden that they place on the citizens of the host cities/countries. Does the Olympics even serve a purpose in today's world? We already have many other international sports events, and the idea that the Olympics somehow "unites the world" is a sad joke. If they are really determined to continue with this archaic institution, they should pick one place to permanently host it where they can build all the necessary infrastructure and actually use it more than once.
"POOOOOOOP RIVER wider than a mile, I'll be crossing you in style some daaaaaaaaay"
🤣🤣🤣
Have you ever felt that the want to protest is there but the fear to protest is greater due to harsh responses
Exactly!
The city of New Orleans is doing the same thing to us just because the SuperBowl is coming.. I mean fixing shit that wasn’t even broken
its a real thing ana says a real journalist like this is real news.
