  • Citizens United is the single worst threat to our democracy that there is. I have noticed a decided unresponsiveness coming from our representatives ever since this ruling. George Bush was right about those activist judges, unfortunately they are the activist judges that he appointed.

  • I will update my CV by taking out my qualifications and instead state 'I have FIRE IN THE BELLY!!! And the fire GREW INSIDE OF ME!!

  • I will donate another 25

    my next pay check

    but times are tough and i realize that this

    money is important

    i trust you will use this money to fight for us

  • @ghostfacekilla3 i would think twice about that, they're most likely pocketing the money, they haven't done anything except collect money

  • Wolf-PAC and its lobbying scares me.

  • The corruption you are fighting is older than the laws you are fighting against.

  • SOMEBODY NEEDS TO WRITE UP A WIKIPEDIA PAGE ON WOLF-PAC ASAP!!!

  • If you support the goals of Occupy Wall Street, then you will want to Youtube "The Saving American Democracy Amendment."

  • Could anyone tell me what the celebration music at the beginning is please?

  • @razarsenal180 John Philip Sousa's "Stars and Stripes." It's about ducks.

  • @maraschino38 Thanks very much.

  • run someone against jokebama?

  • so other then ending corperate personhood, you tackling the new defense act?

  • 1) You got the .com and not the .org? Wassamatawitya?

    2) Accept Bitcoin and put it on the same plane as the big corporate financial entities (visa, etc) and I'll donate $250 by that method.

  • isn't cenk a multi millionaire? it says on celebritynetworth that he is over 3.5 million dollars. how about giving up a little of that instead of asking for third party donations?

  • @ComputerHelp55 Woah... I had no idea Cenk had that kind of moolah. They always talk of their humble beginnings on the show, but I never knew they were pulling in some big money.

  • @ComputerHelp55

    Nope. I sincerely doubt it. TYT broke the million dollar a year REVENUE threshold like... six months ago.

  • @NerdyLiberal Of course they can just say that, I saw that to on G+. But they say they pull in MORE than a million dollars a year. Not about a million dollars, not around, but MORE THAN. Plus Cenk signed on with Current, come on you don't think he is a millionaire? Please.

  • @ComputerHelp55

    I'm almost positive he has probably donated more to it than anyone else.

  • @ComputerHelp55 hahahah cenk a millionaire? ..have you ever seen the car he is driving

  • I wanted to donate but I can't donate using PayPal

  • I just have a bad feeling that hiring a young thirty-year old to be the NEW general its a step backwards. Chris Campbell will be the fall-guy when it fails. TYT is taking the first step to wash their hands of WolfPac. That's why Cenk has to fake his enthusiasm and push it over the top I'm this video. I hope I'm wrong. They have been pretty busy with their new studio. Maybe Cenk was experiencing a new studio "high" when he came up with wolf PAC. Bit of more than he could chew.

  • tyt is obviously pocketing the money, use your brain before you donate

  • I'm Canadian, and I donated $10 because it is all I can afford. If you yanks don't get your shit together, this ship's gonna sink with both you and me on it.

  • @EclipseClemens You and your $10 USD are heroes in my book.  Thank you. <3

  • @EclipseClemens I'm Canadian and I've been thinking the same. Especially scary not only because I care about what happens to my American friends but also because of the recent border deal and agreement to have American police and military operating in Canada. I do not want this going on in my country nor do I want to see it happen to Americans.

  • @EclipseClemens Americans have NO concern over anyone but themselves. Look how they fucked us in the ass over the TARP "American only" bullshit. Broke about 10 laws and NAFTA, an agreement with an a American is not worth the paper it is written on ask anyone who has done business with Goldman Sachs and such.

  • @EclipseClemens Canada is the world's biggest sponsor of terrorism.

  • They really need to change the lighting to get rid of that big spotlight that directly illuminates the scar on Cenk's head... it's distracting and detracts from the professional look of the show.

  • @TheFounderUtopia And what's with this new WWF screaming intro bit? The last three clips I've watched have all begun with him doing a really bad Rowdy Roddy Piper impersonation. Thumbs up on the lighting and the scar.

  • O ya

  • Signed up, donated, an signed. Petition. Ready to rock. Cheers

  • Hey Cenk, you probably should buy the domain, wolfpac.com. It leads to a pornographic website. It will definitely not be good if a new recruit goes there instead of to wolf-pac.com

  • @onlypolar so that's why they say wolf dash pac dot com, hmm...

  • COULD YOU PLEASE ADD A DECENT FORUM TO WOLF-PAC.COM THANKS.

  • @JPhands Wolf-Pac does have a better forum at proboards check out the link on the front page.

  • We need more than the 2 party system, it aint working. We need 3, even 4 major parties.

    1. Democrats.

    2. Republicans.

    3. Libertarians.

    4. WOLF PACS

  • WolfPAC will GO DOWN to the Palinista Army and SarahPAC!

  • @ecwaufisxtreme Troll

  • As soon as I get my next student loan imma donating £10.

  • I hope Wolf-Pac won't be riddled with the bullshit scandals that many Pacs are.

  • wheres ana, she needs to show sum cleavage lol

  • Get rid of the "green screen" thing... it is terrible. You are animated enough, the background is very distracting.

  • @rgiuliani2 thats not a green screen its a actual screen

  • I have the fire in the belly too.... just had a few burritos

  • Sparta!

  • Comment removed

  • like a boss

  • cenk.. you crack me up!

  • the kid would be ill if he had a beard. A$AP.

  • Why don't you see if any of the volunteers fit the job credentials?

  • "He's got a lot of chutzpa"?

  • Cenk i know you read comments, and trust me when i say the fake laugh isn't funny, it's not friendly, it's just really, really awkward, if you don't think something is funny, don't laugh at it. Laughter isn't something mechanical you can do on a que, it just doesn't work.

  • @drpeppa2357 He's got a few things to work on. I think he's starting to tone down what comes across as arrogance. He's a good guy. I do wonder sometimes, if being raised Muslim has a bit to do with how he appears to treat others. Eh ... I just like the guy and want him to do well. Compared to other news or news commentors he's by far the best.

  • I love Cenks "slogan" for wolf-PAC that he used to say before, "wolfpac.com!!! Not a big deal..."

    Sounds really badass when ha says it and I think they should do it more often.

  • Cenk, you should try to get Ralph Nader in for an interview. He tried to start essentially the same thing as wolf-pac back in '08--November5 period org. He might be willing to back you, I think.

  • Obama is a Neocon

  • Fireeeee my laser!!

  • I think we should go to the UN with this. I can cite Article 21 of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1) Everyone has the right to take part in the government of his country, directly or through freely chosen representatives. (3) The will of the people shall be the basis of the authority of government; this will shall be expressed in periodic and genuine elections which shall be by universal and equal suffrage and shall be held by secret vote or by equivalent free voting procedures.

  • : ( I have fire in my belly :*(

  • Hey Cenk, could you do updates like this more often? You could've told us you were in the process of hiring WolfPAC staff. A few of us PAC members were getting a little disillusioned. But glad to see progress being made. Now we're in business.

  • Let's go Wolf PAC! together we can do it!

  • It looks like The Young Turks are finally publicly giving up on Wolf-PAC. No one ever contacted me after I signed up to volunteer as a software developer. It probably lost stream about two weeks into it. Its unfortunate that this has failed. One way you can tell it has failed is that they're hiring a Congress person to lead it. I think I'm going to go throw up now.

  • @SuperToughnut Wow I don't know what show you were watching... I didn't see that at all. Things take time to set up properly.

  • @SuperToughnut - He's not a Congressman. Listen to what he said.

  • Does Chris Campbell know that 9/11 was an Inside Job? Do you Cenk? Are you willing to take that on? Thanks.

  • Why wouldn't Chris just volunteer? Not enough fire in the belly? :)

  • @TruthSurge because being an executive director is a full time job ..what you want him and his family to eat? ....AIR?

  • @dramatish just sayin he could volunteer just like the rest. Work his day gig and do an hour or two of this a day. Who dictated that this was an 8 hr a day job? If he's got so much fire in his little belly, why not do it for free? Why not do it on the side part time and not incur costs and make it look just like any other organization trying to stay alive? Always the low man asked to sacrifice, isn't it? Just find that interesting.

  • @TruthSurge ok! you just prove with amateurish comment that you dont fucking know what you talking about ..lets leave it at that . i dont have the patience to teach you about the work he has to do....have a nice day

  • Can we donate from another country now?

  • @dramatish "i dont have the patience to teach you about the work he has to do..."

    No, you CAN'T. Not WON'T. and there is no set job description where he HAS to do a damn thing. Anything he does is simply decided as something they need done and they'll pile it on but ask yourself why not 9 hrs a day? 10? People do things they believe in for free all the time. People volunteer all the time. It's just becoming another big organization asking for $.

  • @TruthSurge YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AWN

  • @TruthSurge

    TruthSurge, I know you mean well, but keep in mind that this is a serious movement that needs a lot of attention to be given in order to get it done.

    Honestly I think going state by state in order to have an Amendment changed manually, instead of trying to get congress to do it(which they never will), is going to need more than just a few hours of the day involvement to be successful.

    I'm ok with that.

    Let's at least wait and see what type of person he is first.

  • @mrx00666 I'm just not optimistic even with all this hoopla from Cenk (although I am inspired to think that others like me are as pissed off as me that our govt has pissed down the drain TRILLIONS of dollars on all kinds of useless crap mostly creating weapons to kill others etc).

  • @TruthSurge the task that he has in front of him dictated that it has to be a 8hr day job

  • @dramatish i hear air is very and nutritious and low on calories lol

  • @dramatish i heard that too ..besides it cost nothing ..what not to love about air !?

  • @TruthSurge Because he needs money to meet his basic needs? Listen, I offered to volunteer but only from whatever time I have on top of my full time job. I would never expect someone to volunteer if they had no other income sources...

  • @sleepyfish I just find it odd that the grunts are expected to volunteer but the ones orchestrating stuff are making bank. They prob already have enough $ saved to volunteer an hour or 2 a day every day but oh well, it's never enough. You volunteer once they beg you every day for more freebies. I don't mind him getting paid I was just wondering why they couldn't get someone to volunteer some of their time if they were so fired up about it. ?

  • @TruthSurge How is that odd? Don't you understand? He's so fired up that he's willing to make this his full-time job, and not be a mere two hour a week volunteer. He is so fired up that he doesn't want to do anything else except the mission of wolf-pac. With this amount of dedication, the least wolf-pac can do is pay him so that he can actually live and support himself, and his family if he has one. Don't hate on wolf-pac because they're actually creating jobs. We need jobs!

  • @redchango But it's always about money. I look forward to a world without commerce. Everyone has the basic needs met and if people THEN want to get more, sure. But this system in place now will one day be viewed like we view the barbaric ways of ancient times. :( I am all for getting the problems solved but most of them are caused BY government and religion and huge corporations. I'm not sure it can really change significantly. Meet the new boss..... same as the old boss.

  • @TruthSurge - What are you? An anarchist? What does whatever it is that you are talking about have to do with paying this guy to commit full-time to Wolf-PAC? We live here and now, and not in some imaginary future.

  • Spark a FIRE in my soul... :}

  • Wolf Pac = Scam

  • @Tusak2Slick what? That is just a baseless accusation.

  • @Tusak2Slick What makes you think it's a scam?

  • @Tusak2Slick lold @ no explanation why ending corporate corruption in politics = scam.

    

  • Wolf-PAC FTW!!

  • The top 1% of Wolf-PAC earn more from it than the other 99% put together, I bet.

  • @SelfImmolator EARNING MORE IS NOT THE PROBLEM DUMBSASS:::USING THAT MONEY TO CORRUPT POLITICIANS IS THE PROBLEM

  • @dramatish Private companies and free individuals using money to corrupt politicians is not the problem "dumbsass" [sic], it's the legislative failings which allow that legal corruption to take place that is the problem. Occupy DC not Wall St.

  • @SelfImmolator Not to be a master of the obvious, but they do have an Occupy DC movement.

  • @rufuguru Yes I know. Tell the people in Zuccotti park where to find it, if you see 'em.

  • From the Great State of Connecticut!!

  • I used to be in a wolf pack until I took an arrow in the knee.

  • I predict that the ads will have no significant effect. Conservatives don't care about corruption. period.

  • I can only hope and imagine that wolf-pac will one day for a party of its own to compete against democrats and republicans. Let the wolf shred the flesh of the donkey and the elephant alike.

    Seriously that would be a waaay cooler symbol for a party than a donkey or an elephant no?

  • @BrutusAlbion Waaay cooler symbol than an Elephant or Donkey! I'm all for a Wolfpac Party one day...

  • @BrutusAlbion YES I would totally vote for a party with a wolf for a mascot. Or a liger.

  • @BrutusAlbion Cthulhu party...

  • @BrutusAlbion not nearly as cool as a mongoose

  • @manonthemount Is the mongoose a symbol of a political entity? And seriously mangoose...hahaha my wolf won't even kill it, it'll just play with it till it drops dead....

  • @BrutusAlbion I don't know... an ass and the fattest land animal in existence seem pretty fitting to me :P

  • Don't turn your back on the Wolf-Pac?

  • I wanna work for Young Turks :)

  • This Chris Gamble guy might be kind of a gamble...

  • Hiring people is good, but what's the progress so far ? How many states are now calling for the constitutional convention ?

  • @nickst0ne movments don't change the world overnight.

    e.g. civil rights. plessy v. ferguson upholds "separate but equal", NAACP formed in 1909, "separate but equal" doctrine overturned in 1954 with Brown v. BOE, Civil Rights Act enacted July 2nd 1964.

    Have patience.

  • @discipleoftheteapot : I am not American and my knowledge, for proud that I am of it, does not encompass much of USA history (yet). So I don't know how long wolf-pac is ready to keep on going if it does not happen. This surely is worth spending a lifetime fighting for, but a lot of people will abandon hope or drop out of this if nothing happens in years.

    How long do you expect it might take for the 1st state to rally wolf-pac ?

  • @nickst0ne I'm not American either but I think it is necessary to give any movement time to develop wolf-pac is simply part of a wider progessive movement (i'm sure it will not be the only groups started off the back of the occupy wall street movement). All I would say is look at the effect the tea party has had in a few years - hopefully we can pull things back the other way

  • @nickst0ne tbh I don't know alot about US history either (what I referenced on civil rights is from A-level politics)

  • @nickst0ne DUDE ARE YOU SERIOUS do you thinkits something you can do in 2 days? smh

  • W O L F - P A C

  • so is wolf pack for legalization of marijuana, me and my 100+ stoner friends are trying to find a group to join where we can fight to legalize it.

  • 0:53-1:00 that's the EXACT same expression I have when a piece of turd is stuck in my ass and I need to push extra hard to get that little fucker out. :p

  • Best news I've heard all day :D

    Caution: be sure to put the "-" in "wolf-pac.com". "wolfpac.com" is a crappy porn site....

  • Comment removed

  • yeah. Vorwärts, Cenk!

  • No offense I appreciate what's going on here but I really though there would be more wolves by now. WTF?!

  • GO WOLF-PAC!!!

  • @BenjiREC

    "can't wait" :)

  • i am ready in mississippi !

  • Great job you guys! GREAT JOB!

  • How ironic that you need more money to get money out of politics.

  • We need to get money out of politics.... So please donate some $.

  • @3FlowersOnTheMoon Excellent advice.

  • The only thing I completely support politically. Ima give you some moneh! :D

  • 0:53 the fuck Cenk?

  • Whaaaat.

    Why didn't you interview Phil "Tell Randy Gonzalez" Davidson?!

  • Just donated.

  • I would like nothing more than to erect a wall of separation between pork and state, but do not make the misguided attempt to end corporate person-hood. Corporate Person-hood is not a bad thing. It is what defines a company, and it's rights are there because they are extension of our rights and our rights should not include lacing a candidate with corrupting funds. Find out what an incorporation is and why it is important before you try to ban it.

  • @TheRepublicOfUngeria The problem is corporate person-hood invokes the rights of a person but not the responsibilities. Big corporations don't go to prison for manslaughter over neglect, they only pay off money which always gets lobbied to a simple amount that gets absorbed into an ordinary cost of business, thus neglect and legalized corruption becomes standard procedure. This is just one example. If not banned, corporate person-hood should be revised or renamed.
