Summary

Two right-wing Democrats, Senators Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Mark Kelly of Arizona, crossed the aisle Wednesday to help Republicans approve a motion aimed at barring President Joe Biden from declaring a climate emergency, a step that green groups have been pressuring him to take since his first day in office. The abortion access bill’s lead sponsor, Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) tweaked it to appease worries from moderates, stripping out some non-binding language about abortion that raised some objections. A Colorado gubernatorial candidate wants to ban voting by mail, even though he has voted by mail in every election since 2013, when Colorado began mail-in voting. He has no qualms about using anti-LGBTQ dog whistles to score political points, but denies he’s homophobic. If you want a perfect encapsulation of where the anti-anti-Trump left is these days, look no further than Tulsi Gabbard’s appearance on Wednesday’s installment of Hannity. A new survey by The Trevor Project also found that nearly half of all LGBTQ youth seriously contemplated killing themselves last year.

0:30.0	All right, one of the young Turks, Jankyler with you guys later will have John Eiderola, Adrian
0:40.3	Lawrence. Unfortunately, Anna's got COVID again. Maybe it was from all that screaming for
0:45.0	the last couple of days. Please, Democrats do something, which is actually going to lead
0:49.9	to our first guest here. So joining me now, Senator Nina Turner from Ohio, she was just
0:55.7	involved, of course, in the contentious Ohio 11 race in Cleveland. Senator Turner, welcome
1:01.6	back to the young Turks. I'd be here with you, Jankyler.
1:05.6	All right, so we didn't get the result that you were looking for again this time around
1:12.0	the second race. Combined, it looks like about $6 million were spent against you at least
1:17.8	in the two races to give people context to Ohio 12, which is right next to you, combined
1:25.6	$3,000 were spent. So it's obvious, given Hillary Clinton the first time Joe Biden this
1:31.9	time, Clyburn, Democratic leadership, Trump packs, Trump donors, Democratic donors,
1:39.5	oil lobbyists, drug companies, etc. They were worried about you for some reason. You know
1:46.8	why they were so concerned about making sure that you didn't get into Congress?
1:51.6	Yeah, because they know that I held from the Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm School of
1:58.0	the Democratic Party, which is unbought and unbossed, and that I would stand up for the people
2:03.6	relentlessly as relentlessly as they stand up for their corporate owner donors. That's
2:09.2	why, and they knew that I would embarrass them for the things that they have not accomplished
2:13.2	on behalf of the poor, the working poor, and the barely middle class in my district and
2:17.1	in this country.
2:19.0	So I want to come back to what they have not accomplished in a second, but you mentioned
2:22.4	Shirley Chisholm. I noticed the other day that Hillary Clinton at the Met Gala had some
2:27.3	names soon into her address, and one of them was Shirley Chisholm. And I thought that
