US military developing mind reading to be used to put people in prison (VIDEO)
The US government is pouring money into a technology called fMRI, functional magnetic resonance imaging, which measures changes in localized brain activity over time by watching blood flow.
And it can now be used to infer information about our memories. It can tell things like what we have actually seen or experienced.
Though no court has admitted fMRI results as evidence yet, the signs clearly point in that direction.
Police in Louisiana Use Unconstitutional Law to Target & Arrest Gay Men (VIDEO)
Cops arrest gay men for attempting to have sex and then must release them as they can't bring charges - and do it again and again (VIDEO)
"According to an investigative report from the Baton Rouge Advocate, there have been a dozen cases since 2011 in which undercover police officers in Louisiana have propositioned gay men for sex — agreeing to have sex in private, and without money changing hands — only to arrest them under the state's anti-sodomy law, which was invalidated more than a decade ago by a Supreme Court ruling."*
Police in Louisiana are wasting time and money by performing stings to arrest gay men based on a law struck down by the courts as invalid. Why are officers continuing to arrest gay men who agree to consensual, perfectly legal sex? Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss.

Rush Limbaugh's Most Loathsome Moments - Is He Finished?! (VIDEO)
Video clips of Rush Limbaugh - THE WORST OF RUSH LIMBAUGH (VIDEO)
R.I.P Rush Limbaugh (VIDEO)
Rush Limbaugh may be losing 40 stations - advertisers feel he is losing them money (VIDEO)
"Politico reports that Cumulus Media plans on dropping Rush Limbaugh's show at the end of the year.
Cumulus has reportedly decided not to renew Sean Hannity's contract either.
Cumulus carries Limbaugh and Hannity's shows on more than 40 of its stations, including Limbaugh's longtime flagship WABC in New York as well as stations in big markets like Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Dallas."*
Advertisers are quick to deny any link to Rush Limbaugh's radio program, and it's very difficult for him to actually prove his alleged audience numbers. That said, Cumulus Media is said to be dropping Rush (and Sean Hannity) sooner than he might think. Where could Rush be going, and what reprehensible behavior got him there? Cenk Uygur breaks it down with a video mash-up of some of Limbaugh's "best" moments.

Worst Interview Ever?! Fox News Embarrassed (VIDEO)
"It's got plenty of competition but this may just be the single most cringe-worthy, embarrassing interview on Fox News. At least in recent memory. Fox News anchor Lauren Green had religious scholar Reza Aslan on her FoxNews.com show Friday to talk about Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, his book that has been stirring up some online controversy recently. And right off the bat, Green gets to what is important: "You're a Muslim, so why did you write a book about the founder of Christianity?" Aslan seemed a little flabbergasted: "Well, to be clear, I am a scholar of religions with four degrees, including one in the New Testament, and fluency in biblical Greek, who has been studying the origins of Christianity for two decades, who also just happens to be a Muslim."*
Reza Aslan is a religious scholar and author of "Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth." He is also Muslim. This blew the minds of Fox News, including host Lauren Green, who quite possibly gave the most embarrassing, insipid interview in Fox News history. Can a non-Christian possibly be interested in Jesus? Is there any attempt to hide Fox News' agenda? How many times can an anchor phrase the same question again and again?! Cenk Uygur breaks down this ridiculous interview.
