Kyle Edward Kulinski (born January 31, 1988) is an American political commentator, and the co-founder of Justice Democrats.[3][4] He is the host and producer of The Kyle Kulinski Show on his YouTube channel Secular Talk, an affiliate of The Young Turks network.[5] He is a social democrat.

Personal life

Kulinski was born and raised in the New York City suburbs of Westchester County, New York. He graduated from New Rochelle High School in 2006 and Iona College in 2010 with a bachelor's degree in political science and a minor in psychology.[6][7]

Career

In 2019, Kulinksi was a speaker at four Politicon events.[8] He has appeared at the The Joe Rogan Experience,[9] on Fox News[10] and repeatedly on Hill TV's Rising.[11][12][13] The Guardian says he is part of "a crash course in progressive media".[14] He has been called an "internet idol," by The Washington Post,[15] "a popular figure in progressive politics", by Good Magazine[16] and was categorized as a "millennial voice" by The Vanderbilt Hustler.[17]

The Kyle Kulinski Show

Kulinski started a YouTube channel in 2008, named "Secular Talk" while a political science student at Iona College. In 2012, Kulinski began publishing videos full-time, and started broadcasting on BlogTalkRadio as The Kyle Kulinski Show. The show's segments are uploaded to Kulinski's Secular Talk YouTube channel, which received its 100,000th subscriber in April 2014 and reached 500,000 subscribers in September 2017. Kulinski has claimed that his content was "de-ranked" by YouTube.[18][better source needed] As of January 2020, his show has 750,000 subscribers.[19]

Justice Democrats

Kulinski—alongside Cenk Uygur, Saikat Chakrabarti and Zack Exley—co-founded the Justice Democrats in December 2016.[20][21] The group seeks to steer the Democratic Party in a strongly progressive, social democratic or democratic socialist direction by running progressive candidates in primaries against moderate and conservative incumbents such as Joe Manchin, Joe Crowley, and Dianne Feinstein.[22]

Uygur and Kulinski resigned from the group in late 2017.[23][better source needed]

In December 2019, a The New York Times article about Uygur (now a congressional candidate for the California's 25th congressional district) claimed that Uygur had, in an interview with former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, agreed with Duke's characterization of himself as "not a racist".[24] Kulinski responded by running clips of the Duke interview on his show to show Uygur having a "fiery debate" with Duke and saying directly to Duke that he was "anti-Semitic." Kulinski demanded an apology from the Times.[25] The New York Times later issued a correction.[26]
