  • The NDAA does not allow for US citizens to be detained indefinitely. I used to think this until I ACTUALLY READ THE GODDAMN BILL MYSELF.

    It explicitly codifies the exemption of US citizens in section 1021e. Cenk seems to assume that US citizens and legal aliens are only exempt if they are within US borders. This is bullshit. "US citizens", "legal aliens", and "other people living within US borders" are all separate categories.

    And I ain't no conservative. I'm a radical leftist!

  • @mojorhythm And section 1022 only applies to people who are in the category of people covered by the law enunciated in section 1021. That means US CITIZENS AND LEGAL US ALIENS ARE STILL PROTECTED BY THE CONSTITUTION!

  • Garadaghli Genocide --

    On February 17, 1992. Armenian Army attacked Karadaghli village of Azerbaijan.

    The village was completely destroyed during the occupation, peaceful people, including

    women and children were brutally killed, tortured and taken hostages. Nearly 80 of 110

    villagers were killed, 6 became missing and according to the witnesses, 9 people were taken hostage.

  • OBAMA 2012 1!!!!!!

  • Do u really think calling obama will stop this bill? Idiots. He's the one who designed it and signed it like a rat when no one was watching. Traitors to the people!

  • This is the Reign of Terror in France happening 200 years later in the US!!!

  • I'm not a right winger, I'm not a republican, I'm not a neocon, I'm not a redneck, I'm not a member of the NRA, I'm not a "gun nut", I'm not religious, and I'm not a conspiracy tard.....but this past year my brother and I have both stocked up on ammo just in case.

    I'm fucking convinced that in my lifetime American citizens will become slaves to the oligarchy. Voting is meaningless, protests are meaningless. George Orwell's 1984 is fucking here and now, and its way scarier than the book ever was.

  • Masonry will be banned in America soon !

  • that's kinda creepy...

  • @TheYoungTurks Marco Rubio SIGNED and DEFENDED it. A Sell-out shill NEOCON describes Marco Rubio well, however he has sleeping idiots fooled - Ron Paul 2012

  • @TheYoungTurks And the ONLY candidate for president that is against this and WILL change this is RON PAUL -___- WHY are you propagandizing AGAINST him? - Ron Paul 2012!

  • I finally understand and dont take it as a joke anymore when middle eastern "terrorist" say the american government is evil, looking back at everything that has happened since the gulf wars up until now, i fully understand now that this is an evil government and since there are so many like me who were blind to america's actions, we are now at the mercy of our own government... Game Over

  • @mirandansa British royal family is french decended you moron... Thats why Britain is a laughting stock amongs nations... Even their state motto is French...

    I can't believe they are idiots like you in this world. WHen the day British royal family would let any member to marry a black person the day Bush will be more than some redneck. British royal family rules is racist as they can be...

  • @MrDenocan //British royal family is french decended//

    Irrelevant to my point.

    I'm anti-monarchy, by the way.

  • @mirandansa acutally its German descended really

  • hahahahahahahaha I start to think its funny now when the fucking stupid sheeple wake up Hahahahaha I start to understand how the elite is thinking. They want to kill you becouse you are Ignorant stupid weak link of the human genetic strand. Yous fools got robbed of your pineal vision and your willpower, living for sex trying the gain more material to get more sex just like a fucking bird flopping hes feathers to get a fuck yall are animal

  • The Americans let that happen with their ignorance, so they deserve every bit of it.

  • @Ome99 Your right and I dont like this feeling...I starting to hate the sheeple, I used to care about them and trying to wake them up but now I think they can get what they voted for....you voted for obama so fuck yall and go to the camps. FUCK AMERIKKKA

  • @Ome99 Actually I've been going on about how this shit was coming ever since the Patriot Act. In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is frustrated as shit. It's amazing that there are still people who haven't woken up. We should seriously all take the day off work, rise up, and dismantle the government by whatever means necessary. Get some of that freedom from tyranny.

  • The current federal government of the United States is no longer the legitimate government of the American people.

  • please kill him someone he is becoming a dictator

  • This is similar to a law called Internment which was enforced in N Ireland in the 60's & 70's. This was a time where even so much as talking to a known IRA or UDA, UVF member, could have you arrested and jailed without trial whether or not you knew that person was a member of said groups. This was a terrible time in N Ireland's history and was very quickly abolished and actually America pressed heavily on UK Gov to stop Internment back then.

  • Why do Republicans and Democrats learn to work together went it comes to making Americans lives worst.

  • The American government is a puppet on the hand of the worst dictator in the history of the world who is yet to be revealed.

  • 2012 is the year America embraced Dictatorship..."

    Bought to you by Bush/Obama. I say BOUGHT as it IS BOUGHT and paid for.

    REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ARE A TWO PARTY DICTATORSHIP!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!! DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!!

  • DOUBLESPEAK UP THE ASS!!!!

    DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER!!!

  • Why don't You americans make civil arrests and throw the politicians in jail ?

  • But did Obama pinky sware to it?Cause if he did its ALL GOOD WITH ME

  • Finally, the North American "democracy" of only two parties showed what it really is. I want to see the Yankees comedians ridicule the third world now.

  • United States + petroleum = warfare

    United States + warfare = terrorism

    The United States will destroy the world

    Sou Brasileiro com muito orgulho.

  • Thank God. Liberals that dont bend over backward when Mr Smiley progressive democrat president does something atrocious to Constitutional rights.

  • Where's the rage...?

  • Your gov't was WILLING to do this to you--their own countrymen, LONG before your pres. made it law while you were all enjoying turkey.....

  • Who's the politician which stayed strong to his beliefs and promisses in the last 20 years?

    That's right: RON PAUL 2012.

  • @SturmFuhrerx our government is bought by international banks so although I would really love Ron Paul to win, he probably won't. Obama will be "re-elected" illegally and put in power by the ones in charge. He will then use NDAA to it's full potential during his next term. Especially after the economy collapses to the ground due to hyperinflation.

  • The NDAA? What's all that about? Americans thrown in jail simply for questioning authority? Say hello to what it's like to be an apostate in the Islamic world. Sharia law calls for people to be executed for questioning or rejecting Islam. Yet that very same injustice has been trivialized, even defended, by many American "liberals" who scream "RACIST!" every time anyone opposes such violations of basic human rights. Now it’s happening to you and you don’t like it? Neither do we so WAKE UP people!

  • LMAO and they say America is the land of the free

  • 10 reasons the U.S. is no longer the land of the free: 1. Assassination of U.S. citizens 2. Indefinite detention 3. Arbitrary justice 4. Warrantless searches 5. Secret evidence 6. War crimes 7. Secret court 8. Immunity from judicial review 9. Continual monitoring of citizens 10. Extraordinary renditions Patriot Act, abolition of habeas corpus, torture, assassination squads, extraordinary renditions, concentration camp/Guantanamo Bay (and beyond) NDAA, rigged elections, bought & paid for Congress
  • I am a registered Democrat, a veteran, a former State Trooper, and currently I am a criminal justice professor. Obama explicitly stated that when the Bill crossed his desk he would veto the Bill. Well... he signed it!!!!!!

  • lol lets vote obama in for another 4 years, seems to be doing big things i wanan see how far this thing goes

  • BECAUSE IF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT SAYS - "TRUST ME" And the people who fail to do so are doomed to CHAINS, THIS IS NOT GOOD FOR THE REST OF THE WORLD BARACK OBAMA Facist CHEAP

  • DR RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT

    FROM BRAZIL AND THANK YOU ITS ALL

  • I can't understand why more people are more upset over this.

  • @porkchop745 Because most people never heard of this.

  • @porkchop745

    Because the NDAA was coded in such an encrypted manner to make it sound like it was a safe bill, and they snuck it in at New Year's when Americans were enjoying the holiday. Then you have the Establishment controlling the media on top of that. Outlets like TYT are one of the few that actually warns you on fascism like this.

  • I do have a thought.... Will the military and police force actually follow through this? And have they even questioned the government? Not like I expect the police force too, but the military! I'm only 13! What can I do?!

  • a government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have -Thomas Jefferson

  • This video is bullshit. Firstly, quit acting like this bill is Obama's fault. He didn't write it obviously, and the bill passed with enough votes to override a veto.

    Secondly, those two highlighted sections mean nothing. Shut up. SOPA was worse.

  • @isubscribeeveryone2

    Dumb ass, he shares the blame when he SIGNED it into law willingly with bi-partisan support! How about YOU quit acting like he vetoed this fascist bill. Your claim means nothing so YOU shut up. SOPA got beaten down only because the old farts in Congress sucking Hollywood dicks underestimated the American youths who are more tech savvy than them in such a open brazen manner.

  • @isubscribeeveryone2 Obama Fanboy

  • @isubscribeeveryone2

    Sheeple alert

  • You guys should be worried even if it did not apply to the US because it's wrong no matter who this bill would effect around the world.

  • @StarCraftRaver Excellent point. This universal maxim has always held true, still holds true, and will always hold true: when one's freedom and rights are violated, everyone's freedom and rights are violated. The "oh that can never happen here" mentality is worse than an any poison imaginable...because it corrupts and decays at your God given reason, which in turn kills your instinct for survival thereby making it difficult to recognize clear signs of danger.

  • mmmm im pretty sure this falls under treason..hey i didnt write the law

  • SPREAD WORD! PETITION and post everywhere! Change dot org has a petition labeled: Tell President Obama not destroy the Bill of Rights and veto the National Defense Authorization Act.

  • FUCK OBAMA

  • As a lawyer, even if not from USA, I cannot but remark how hideous this legislation is. Did they really pass it under the cover of new year festivities? What in the world is going on over there?

  • Comment removed

  • In order for this unlawful law to even be considered in Congress, or for even the president to sign such a monstrosity, some very influential heavy hitters had to be behind this, lobbying non-stop in secret. I would suspect the Federal Reserve has their fingerprints all over this, and pushed Congress, and Obama into signing it. The Fed has become very nervous lately as their mechanizations have become exposed.

  • Obama=Judas. The same thing that happened 2000 years ago will happen again on a larger scale involving thousands of citizens being systematically executed. If not by Obama, by his successor in the WH. Make no mistake about it, it WILL happen.

  • Thank God, for you, telling the news like it is. Please don’t ever sell out. If it happens you will be greatly missed. TYT!!

  • @jwlaureano

    If Cenk ever sold out, it would be a great change in his personality as if we never knew him at all. Remember why he quit MSNBC. It's likely that he himself may be put up in the death list, so let's hope that doesn't happen.

  • There is a real threat of terror but the NDAA is not the answer. Deportations and strict immigration laws are! one 9/11 bomber was on an expired Visa. We citizens can't get on a plane without a groin search but our borders are wide open to every abdul paco and micmoc.. there is over 40 million undocumented aliens in the USA. And the midwest has a growing middle eastern populations. Leave our rights alone and kick out the Job stealer and future terrorists

  • @loxleymendoza such ignorance, inbreed dumbfuck, you wanna start kicking out immigrants? how about we start out with all those european cocksuckers that landed in america, massacred thousands of innocent PEOPLE NATIVE TO THE AMERICAS (e.i, native americans, Aztecs, Mayas) and then claimed the land as their own. FUCK YOU

  • the ambiguity is just allowing them wiggle room to arrest anyone they want (mainly thinking about occupy/anonomous

  • @luluhipe Obama added the ability to detain for "extended" periods (unlimited detention ) US citizens -

  • I guess we should have believed Obama when he stated the U.S. constitution was a 'flawed' document and needed fixing!

  • Couldnt they also hold you untill they hear from the president to hold you or not, and that could be a long long time before he even gets back to them.

    Lets get rid of this Bullshit people Vote Ron Paul !!

  • Every one of our "elected representatives" that voted for this needs to be tried for treason! They have sold us out. Anybody that thinks that this does not allow American citizens to be detained indefinitely without due process needs to brush up on their reading comprehension skills. If you were told that it doesn't apply to you, you were lied to. Also, there is no defense of Obama that is valid: he was going to veto because it didn't go FAR ENOUGH in taking our rights away! Buy a clue!!!

  • Comment removed

  • every cotton pickin law or bill should be voted on by the people.

  • Obomber signed the NDAA, which allows for US citizens to be imprisoned without a trial and executed without a trial.

    Elect Ron Paul, then imprison Obomber without a trial, execute him without a trial, and do the same wit all those who helped develop the bill and all those who supported it, then repeal the bill.

    RON PAUL 2012

  • Sen levin of Mich. was the main sponsor of this bill. MI state has a growing islamic population. fearing al quada recruitment he is willing to remove our rights so we can have this cock eyed multi-cultural society. NDAA is not thr answer! Massive deportations + strict immgration laws are! We can't get on a plane without a grion search but.there are over 40 million undocumented aliens in the USA and the borders are wide open to every abdul paco and mic moc. one 9/11 bomber was on an expired visa

  • Cenk was a great propagandist for Obama during his '08 campaign and has continued to be.

    It was all those evil Republican Neo-Cons' fault wasn't it Cenk.

    Quite frankly, I wouldn't take these crocodile tears seriously. TYT is an asset of the US propaganda machine.

  • @historypoliticsbb

    TYT is a propaganda for what? You want propaganda, then go suck Faux News dick like the rest of the fascist right-wing Nazi sheep.

  • @NaziGOPBallmer Can't remember my comment, but I don't actually buy in to the false left-right puppet show as it happens.

    The US is a single party banking/corporate dictatorship with two factions. It makes no difference who 'wins' the Presidency, the role of President is to be a teleprompter-reading front man.

  • @historypoliticsbb

    "but I don't actually buy in to the false left-right puppet show as it happens."

    That's no excuse to claim Cenk is a propagandist. If you had watched enough TYT episodes, you wouldn't have even made that false accusation at all in the first place. And yes I agree, the system is one single party, but they push far right-wing agendas nonetheless. That's why Repukes are better team players than Democrats.

  • @NaziGOPBallmer Well, I'm glad we're on a similar wavelength, I've been watching TYT vids for about 3 years, and their unquestioning support for Obama, and issues like abortion makes them little better than MSNBC, CNN or whatever. Getting upset about the NDAA is too little, too late, I'm afraid.

    While it is tempting to call the drive for One World Government 'far-right', it is still meaningless. The USSR was the closest blueprint to the NWO to date.

  • @historypoliticsbb

    "I've been watching TYT vids for about 3 years, and their unquestioning support for Obama".

    Anyone watching TYT for the last 3 years will call you out on that. If Cenk was truly a propagandist, TYT would've ceased to exist and he'd probably still be working at MSNBC at this very moment. The TYT army is NOT an Obama cheerleader.

    "Getting upset about the NDAA is too little, too late, I'm afraid."

    Knowing why it snuck into law in such conniving manner isn't.

  • @NaziGOPBallmer I'm pretty sure Mr. Uygur will be voting for Obama, I'd be astonished if he endorses anyone else. If he does, I will admit I was wrong.

  • @historypoliticsbb

    Remember that voting lesser of two evils is a reality, not an illusion. That's why Cenk would vote Obama. He's not a cheerleader.

  • “There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.” - Ayn Rand

  • Repeal (HR 1540 & S. 1867) by Executive Order.This violates the 4th & 6th Amendment & Constitution Article 3 Section 3. ( htt ps://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petit­ions#!/petition/repeal-hr-1540­-s-1867-executive-orderthis-vi­olates-4th-6th-amendment-const­itution-article-3-section/H4hr­YTlk )

  • @RobinHoodSaint You do know that we have l laws already that protect the president from things like that and that this gives the power to apprehend, indefinately detain American citizens, without knowing what you're being accused of, without a right to a trial. You can disappear, our be killed, and you are defending this? Please explain

  • Why aren't the supporting politicians of this bill charged with high treason???

  • The roman republic lasted about 500 years before becoming an empire. I doubt the USA will last nearly that long before becoming a totalitarian dictatorship. Unfortunately I may be alive to witness the end of democracy and liberty.

  • @Darrylizer1 Hey, at least Caesar was stabbed to death.  You might live to see that, chin up!

  • @Darrylizer1 This is why We must resist.

  • I hate reading the dumb comments by morons, it's exhausting. No wonder why the U.S. is a piece of shit....

  • @hunden8404 i mean if people want to oppose this at least make reasonable arguments. your right.

  • @hunden8404 your a POS - to bad the down rave is broken you troll - go suicide something (if you can get a day off from occupy for Obama2012)

  • @lrdarkmoon What the hell are you talking about? You think I support this fascist country?

  • @hunden8404 Woah there

    you could be detained for making unpatriotic comments on youtube. @Darrylizer1 Not "may be" you are and you are witnessing the beginning of it right now.

  • @hunden8404 If you don't like it don't come here. Obama is doing this for freedom.

  • @Friedstuffsable is that a joke?

  • @Blizeful A spoof of what neocons say about this.

  • Glad to see you are covering this.

    I could see Newt using this Occupy Camp FEMA

  • Even if I walked into a police station n killed cops, and everybody seen me do it, and video cameras seen me do it, I still have the right to trial. Ill most likely lose, but I still have that right. And that's how it ought to be. So no, the presidents life is not worth more than my civil liberties. And the fate of my life should never be in the hands of any single man besides my own.

  • @Robinhoodsaint. Shut up nazi. Just shut up. If someone is possessing lone Wolfe characteristics, or making threats to the commander in chief, we have a justice system to prove that the person has done what you accused him of, and the justice system hands out a punishment. So if I say Obama is a socialist, or say fuck Obama or say things in a way that could be a threat to him, that he should have the power to arrest and detian me without trial, on only a suspicion? Fuck u nazi

  • People try to discredit the constitution as some old piece of paper.. funny as we head farther away from it, the worst we get as a country. Ron Paul 2012

  • any and all that voted this in should be tried for TREASON

  • America was founded on the Constitution, its freedoms and the rights it gave to the people.

    obama did take OATH to uphold,preserve and defend the Constitution as is required from any and all presidents for them to be able to take office, and in NDAA its a BLATANT act of TREASON against America and what America and the Constitution stands for and its a DECLORATION of WAR against the American people.

  • BLACK BiTCH BRING YOUR ASS IN FEMA CAMP!!!

  • well it's official I'm NOT RE-ELECTING OBAMA IN 2012! the only way I will re-elect Obama is simply overturn this DAMN NDAA Bill also FIRE Geithner, Daley, Lew, and etc then i'll change my mind until then I'm NOT going to re-elect someone who is NOT solemnly swearing to the Constitution of the United States! smh.

  • 07:15 "Now we dont have due process". Welcome to the rest of the world, America, we have been waiting for you.

  • Comment removed

  • Well so far, "trust me" has worked. The U.S. President can launch our nukes at any moment, but all we have to do is trust them that they won't. Worked so far. This is, as most things are, a "just in case" type of thing.

  • @XxManoDeMuertexX

    Wow, simply wow.

    No the president CANNOT launch a nukes at any moment. It requires a declaration of war to do so, through the congress Article 1 Section 8 of the U.S constitution.

    But that's another thing Obama completely destroyed.

    So... we now condone 'just in case' summary executions and indefinite detention without charges or trial?.

    Because we trust our benevolent dictator?, really?. So much for our democratic republic.

  • hmm, i remember there being some kind of thing about not allowing indefinite detention in some kind of important document. now what was that again... o yea the FUCKING CONSTITUTION!

  • Comment removed

  • This is the most substantive honest analysis I've seen from you, to support Obama yet hold him accountable for this bill that destroys civil liberties beyond the Bush Patriot act even. And to hold him responsible for not vetoing the bill, that's all he had to do.

  • I read the entire bill and Cenk is wrong. It discloses in EACH section that it does not include Anreicans. not just 1021. After EACH statement it dscloses that it excludes Amercans. Read it for yourselves- YOUTUBE wont let me paste the link to the bill- but it starts on page 418. Read it.

  • @twistandshout9 Also I am not a Obama follower. just a truth seeker. Read the Bill.

  • @twistandshout9 I've read it as well, & you're incorrect. The bill does pertain to American citizens as well.
