Ana joins Cenk and Ben for SCS.  A big teen sexting ring was busted, but instead of prosecuting the kids for child porn, they decided to educate the kids about the dangers of taking nude pics.  A Slate writer felt that focusing on the girls that text pictures to tell them not to, was victim blaming.  A new dating app called Mingleton allows users to meet up with someone at the same venue they’re at.  Favorability for Wendy Davis in her gubernatorial race in Texas is dropping significantly, even among women.  Talk about what empty tactics have worked in bringing her down. A 25 year old man was arrested for placing a fake bomb at the finish line of the Boston marathon.  He seems to be out of his mind, as he admitted he needs some exposure.  After the 14 year old girl got into trouble for jokingly making terrorist threats to American Airlines, many more teenagers copied her by threatening airlines.  A football coach at Minnesota State University was arrested last year for child porn after pictures of kids playing in a bathtub were found on his phone.  He was fired and sent to jail, but it has now finally been determined that the picture was of his kids in the bathtub.

Cenk and Ben hosting.  Latest on the Cliven Bundy conflict with the federal government over his cattle grazing for free on public property.  Videos of Sean Hannity attempting to push Bundy into believing the government is going to raid him in the middle of the night and that he has to have a gun fight with them.  Surprisingly, Glenn Beck has been feverishly speaking out against the Bundy supporters getting violent.  After internet Conservatives slammed Beck for being “weak” he responded with more peaceful talk, telling them to unfriend him, and unsubscribe from his sites.  Ben talks about how much he likes Beck’s camera angles and set design. An obvious poll shows that states that have embraced ObamaCare’s core tenets like Medicaid expansion, have a significantly lower uninsured rate than states that have rejected it.  Some Republicans are now asking GOP leadership like Eric Cantor and John Boehner when they will finally get an alternative plan to replace ObamaCare with, but they’ve received no answer.  Michael Bloomberg has initiated a plan to put $50 million toward challenging the NRA and their pushy policies.  He also spoke about how he’s so sure that he’s going to Heaven that he won’t even stop for an interview at the gates. An ancient papyrus that was written about Jesus had him talking about “his wife” and a female disciple, has been analyzed and determined to be authentic.  Christians are disputing this conclusion as it rejects their beliefs that Jesus wasn’t married and that there were no female leaders of the church.  A hair salon in London put up an ad that pictured Kim Jong Un that read, “Bad Hair Day?”  The next day, a couple of representatives of N. Korea came by from the nearby embassy and told the salon’s owner to take the picture down.
