"The first time I ever really listened to Kyle Kulinski’s show was in the back of a cab last summer. The driver had his phone hooked up through the stereo and was pumping out an episode through the car speakers — loudly, as if looking to convert a captive audience.
“Do you like Kyle Kulinski?”
The driver, Ahmed, was a recent immigrant and apparently a die-hard fan of Secular Talk, the political talk show that Kulinski broadcasts on YouTube. I told him, yes, in fact. I do like Kulinski, had come across his show several years ago, and, all things considered, he seemed pretty good.
“He understands what we’re up against,” Ahmed said. “Like Bernie.”
But I was surprised to hear Kulinski’s name mentioned in the same breath as Bernie Sanders, particularly with such adoration. Because what I did remember about Kulinski’s show struck me as mostly capital-P “progressive” takes on the news — the left wing of the Netroots crowd more than the democratic socialism Sanders has popularized.
It’s an impression that wasn’t entirely incorrect.
“I have no time for philosophical, airy bullshit,” Kulinski tells me from his home in Westchester, New York. “I don’t want to hear about Lenin. I don’t want to hear about Marx. I just want a super plainspoken, straightforward agenda with a straightforward way of selling it.”
With over 800,000 subscribers and nearly 670 million total views on YouTube, selling a progressive agenda is clearly something Kulinski knows how to do — even Democracy Now, the long-standing flagship of progressive media, cannot match his reach on the platform. Chapo Trap House can certainly boast a wildly devoted fan base (and a not insignificant degree of media influence), but their audience is roughly half the size of Kulinski’s.
While Secular Talk might be more likely to be looped in with the progressive networks around Air America and Pacifica alums like Sam Seder than the more resolutely socialist world, Kulinski’s fiery rhetoric, razor-sharp class instincts, and knack for withering takedowns sets him apart from his peers. Judging by his rhetoric alone, he’s closer to a Eugene Debs than a Chris Hayes.
But unlike Hayes, Amy Goodman, or his friend Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks — who began airing Secular Talk on his web network seven years ago — the thirty-two-year-old Kulinski is virtually invisible in the mainstream media. Despite his enormous fan base, his show has never once been mentioned in the obligatory trend pieces on “the Millennial Left” pumped out by the prestige media. Nor has Kulinski’s name ever popped up at all in the New York Times, Vox, the New Yorker, New York Magazine, or the Washington Post, despite his leading role in cofounding Justice Democrats, the organization widely credited with sweeping Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the rest of “the Squad” to power.
Just last week, his Wikipedia page was deleted. The reason? “There is very simply no [reliable source] coverage of this person,” according to one moderator. In new media, he’s king — the Sean Hannity of the Berniecrat left. In old media, he’s nobody.
I suspect there are a few reasons for that. There is nothing “cool” about Kulinski’s show. (As a friend put it, “‘Welcome to Secular Talk’ sounds like something you’d hear on Egyptian radio.”) His no-nonsense social-democratic politics won’t get him much cred with the Full Communism crowd. He records his show not in Brooklyn or Los Angeles, but in a studio he built himself in his modest Westchester home. His hair is too groomed and his taste in clothes too preppy to qualify as “Dirtbag Left.” Nor has he ever attended an n+1 release party. “Not only have I not attended one,” he says, “I have no idea what that means.”
And yet he’s astonishingly plugged-in for a young man in the suburbs. Wondering how Sanders ended up on the Joe Rogan Experience? Kulinski, a frequent guest on Rogan’s wildly popular show, introduced them. “You make the most sense to me,” Rogan told Kulinski on a recent episode. “You’re a normal person.”
Much like Sanders himself, Kulinski’s show has a massive audience that just doesn’t compute with our media’s understanding of “what the kids want” or even “what the left-wing kids want.”
It’s probably for the best — the very woke and very WASP-ish decorum haunting much of the media world is nowhere to be found in Secular Talk. “Corporate Democrats over-focus on identity as a trick to divert you from the issues that unite us all — class issues,” he said on a recent episode.

2-year-old stranded in Indianapolis after parents' deportation
WTHR
It’s just after 7 a.m. as Yesica Turcios brushes her daughter's hair, wipes away tears and cuddles her 2-year-old boy before heading to the airport. These are her final moments in her Indianapolis home before being deported to Honduras. She’s packed to leave, but only two of her three American-born minor children can make the trip. Two-year-old Hendrick must stay behind. He is a U.S. citizen, but he does not have a passport. Despite multiple attempts, Yesica says she was unable to get him one before June 6, the deadline for her to leave the country. MORE: https://www.wthr.com/article/news/inv...
Bernie Sanders exposes Trump’s corruption in US Senate
PoliticsJOE
On the senate floor, friend of the channel Bernie Sanders calls out President Donald Trump’s deep ties to authoritarian regimes in the Middle East, including the UAE, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, and details how billions in arms deals and alleged bribes compromise U.S. democracy.
Sanders slams Trump's first foreign policy trip as not about diplomacy, but about business. He accuses Trump and his family of accepting huge payments through shady crypto deals, luxury gifts like a $400 million jet, and multi-billion dollar investments from foreign powers with lacklustre human rights records.
According to Sanders, the UAE and Qatar have violated U.S. and international law, funded terrorist groups like Hamas, and committed atrocities abroad, yet Trump allegedly rewarded them with arms sales and U.S. policy favours. Sanders reveals that Trump’s own crypto company may have profited over $85 million annually from deals with these authoritarian governments.
Go Bernard.

According to video footage obtained by CBS News, two unidentified ICE agents handcuffed Naser and escorted him out of the federal courthouse in downtown San Diego following a mandatory immigration hearing on Wednesday, June 11. David Shuster breaks it down on Rebel HQ.
