TYT: Oregon Militia Member Just Lost His Kids



One of the Oregon militia members says his foster kids were taken away from him. But with that also goes his main source of income. Ana Kasparian and Becca Frucht hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

Do you think Finicum is more upset that his foster kids were taken away or that his income was? Let us know in the comments below.

“Arizona rancher LaVoy Finicum told Oregon Public Broadcasting that his four current foster children have been removed while he's in Oregon:​

Robert “LaVoy” Finicum and his wife Jeanette were foster care parents for troubled boys. Finicum estimates that over the past decade, more than 50 boys came through their ranch near Chino Valley, Arizona. The boys often landed there from mental hospitals, drug rehabs and group homes for emotionally distressed youth.

“My ranch has been a great tool for these boys,” Finicum said. “It has done a lot of good.”

Becca "the equivocator" Frucht and Ana (who I normally like) say absolutely nothing about the fact that these are lunatics occupying and destroying a wildlife preserve set aside by Teddy Roosevelt! Plus ignores the native population interests, which these douchbags are also running rip shod over.

But Becca worked on a cattle ranch for a few months so she sympathizes with these nut cases? WHAT!?

I like TYT, but I do not think Cenk would support this one.

It's rubbish.
