Cenk hosting.  Malaysian PM announced that flight MH370 went down in a remote part of the Indian Ocean.  Fox News’ Andrea Tantaros and Bill O’Reilly have found a way to connect Benghazi to the Malaysian flight disaster.  Russians have taken over a 3rd and final Ukrainian base in Crimea and have moved further toward the Eastern border of Ukraine.  Ukraine’s Foreign Minister told ABC This Week that they are prepared to defend their homeland as the chances of war with Russia are “growing.”  Video of Rep Mike Rogers asserting that America has to provide more military support for Ukraine, without troops on the ground there.  As of today, the G8 has dropped Russia from the group due to their aggressive moves.  Bill Donahue’s threat to retaliate in response to the St. Patrick’s Day parade by joining the gay pride parade was met with a welcoming response from organizers of the gay parade.  Donahue turned down their offer to join all the festivities, which included a safety orientation meeting.  The NSA put out a flowery & generic media kit to enhance their public relations.  In the meantime, we had no idea what was going on with the Russian plan to move into Crimea because our spies were too busy spying on Americans’ privacy.  Cenk thinks we are spreading this incompetence to throw off Russians from realizing what we’re really monitoring.  Despite the election of Bill De Blasio as mayor of NYC, Politico is highlighting the reality that the Establishment is still very much in control of our politicians.  The billionaire founder of Home Depot is the latest to write a piece about how jealous most of Americans are toward the .1% of the country that controls everything to only benefit themselves.  Gov Cuomo is the latest that has been bought by the uber-rich as they compare him to De Blasio, painting a picture that Cuomo is more politically savvy.  The Koch Brothers are spending 10x the amount of money Democrats are spending on the upcoming elections, breaking their previous records.  Part of this aggressive attack includes fake people to portray personal stories in hopes to connect with and mislead real people.  Despite being exposed Americans for Prosperity hasn’t retreated.  A NY Times piece explains that the Koch Brothers are going after ObamaCare so much simply to create a normal narrative that everything born from the government is a disaster.  They are looking forward to attacking the possibility that regulations could come for the energy industry.  Wolf PAC news.  After being told the chance for us to get a resolution passed in VT was 0%, it was actually passed, 25-2.  Cenk points out the people that made this happen.
