If you’re already a regular viewer of Cenk Uygur’s news and political show The Young Turks, this book won’t add much to what he already has to say about the state of our democracy and the way this country has been taken over by corporations buying off politicians. Narrated by the author, this book gives an open and honest perspective with a little tongue-in-cheek humor that the author is quite good at. In all honesty, he is much more animated on his show with his emotions laid bare.

Nothing is off limits and Cenk Uygur is fearless about exposing the corrupt and the ridiculous that we have elected to office. Now that he has announced his intention to run for President in 2024, I can wholeheartedly say this will be one interesting, if not entertaining, election.

My Final Verdict: Americans should be concerned at the very least at what our government and elected officials are doing right under our noses. I am nowhere close enough to being a political pundit, but Cenk Uygur offers an enlightening perspective to which we should listen. Give the book a go, form your own conclusions and then cast your vote.

Disclaimer: I received a complimentary copy of Justice Is Coming from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This book is a very comprehensive introduction to the American progressive ideology and how it is in actuality the ideology that is preferred by a majority of Americans but big business' interests tend to eclipse the interests of the general population. Uygur outlines how money in politics allows businesses to control our politicians and how failings on both sides of the aisle cause some citizens to vote against their own interests. He also gives examples of how traditional media support and encourage this system that works for business and against the citizen. Uygur does not simply bash one political party but shows how both sides work in tandem to encourage fighting amongst Americans while hiding the big picture of what we really believe. I hope people on both sides of the aisle give this book a chance to help us to work together for our common goals: health, happiness and a bright future for the country.

I received an advanced copy and am giving an honest review.

Thank you to NetGalley, St Martin’s Press an Cenk Uygur for an opportunity to review an ARC of the audiobook. “Justice Is Coming” is an honest look at the destructive corruption of our political system. It is Clear, concise and well-written an presented with passion. Cenk Uyghur reveals corruption in government and the media an how both are bent in favor of corporations an not the common good. We repeatedly see demonstrations of the concept of “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it.” (Upton Sinclair) and repeatedly see why it is important to follow the money. “In a system built on private financing of politicians you will always have politicians serving private interests.” Cenk makes the case that America is much more progressive than we are being told, but that the press (from Fox News to MSNBC) agree that the progressives must not be allowed to win. At the point in time when my attention starts to wain, and I’m just about ready to give up, we learn that while the average age of a person in America is 38, the average age of a CNN viewer is 64 and the average age of a Fox or MSNBC viewer is 68. Cenk contends that while the mainstream media is the “marketing arm for corporate rule” we have a rising generation of people who no longer listen to the political propaganda that is stacked against us.
