“ Jimmy Dore is outrageous and outraged, bothersome and bothered, a crucial, profane, passionate voice for progressives and freethinkers in 21st century America.” -Patton Oswalt
A ceasefire agreement has been reached between the Israeli government and Hamas after untold devastation to Gaza and tens of thousands of deaths. While Palestinians across Gaza have been cheering the deal, Israelis poured into the streets to register their objection to any agreement, insisting that Netanyahu keep the genocidal assault going. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast, along with guest Jimmy Dore, discuss whether the Palestinians or Israelis are more brainwashed. Plus segments on the political theater that passed for Pete Hegeth’s confirmation hearing and Governor Gavin Newsom’s weird shoulder shimmy while talking to reporters about the LA fires.
One area of contention within the MAGA movement is over the question of Israel. Many Trump supporters are adamantly anti-Israel and wish to sever the close ties between the US and the Jewish state. Within the Trump camp, however, there is near unanimity in offering unconditional support for Israel in its genocidal assault on Gaza and aspirations for expansion into what’s termed “Greater Israel.” Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast talk with Black Conservative Perspective host Greg Foreman about why MAGA will never do anything to change the Trump administration’s policy on Israel. Plus segments on the LA fire chief’s foreknowledge of empty reservoirs and broken hydrants and the prison laborers being used as virtual slaves to fight the LA fires. Also featuring Mike MacRae! And a phone call from David Axelrod!
California Gov. Gavin Newsom was confronted by a mother in Los Angeles County who said her daughter's school burned down as several fires have devastated the region this week. In a video aired by SkyNews, the woman approached Gov. Newsom in the middle of a street surrounded by burned-down buildings. "I live here, governor. That was my daughter's school. Governor, please tell me what you're going to do," she pleaded with Newsom. The governor responded, "I'm literally talking to the president right now to specifically answer the question of what we can do for you and your daughter." The woman then asked if she could hear the call with the president "because I don't believe it." Newsom then showed her his phone screen and said he couldn't get through to the president. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast talk discuss whether his administration’s utter failure over the LA fires will completely douse Newsom’s presidential prospects. Plus segments on sentencing in Donald Trump’s New York hush money case and Joe Biden and LA Mayor Karen Bass fumbling and bumbling reaction to the raging fires. Also featuring Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Meta will get rid of fact-checkers, “dramatically reduce the amount of censorship” and recommend more political content on its platforms, including Facebook, Instagram and Threads, founder Mark Zuckerberg has announced. In a video message, Zuckerberg vowed to prioritize free speech after the return of Donald Trump to the White House and said that, starting in the US, he would “get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X”. Zuckerberg said Meta’s “fact-checkers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they’ve created”. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast discuss the move from Zuckerberg, and the sordid history of fact checking at Facebook. Plus segments on callous Israelis’ total lack of concern for the deaths of children in Gaza and Democrat dead-enders rallying in DC on January 6th to register their objection to the Trump presidency.
According to authorities, the recent New Year’s attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas are likely the work of ISIS and Al Qaeda, who are determined to initiate attacks on the U.S. homeland and terrorize the American populace. According to investigative journalist and author Whitney Webb, however, these incidents actually have the hallmarks of U.S. and Israel-based intelligence operations, although the objective — terrifying the American people — remains the same. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast discuss with Webb what about these attacks and the historical record leads her to conclude that the CIA and others are probably involved. Plus segments on Canadian PM Justin Trudeau’s announcement that he will resign his post and Joe Biden’s last shipment of $8 billion in weapons to Israel before he leaves office.
Popular comedian Whitney Cummings caused quite a stir during the recent CNN New Year’s Eve broadcast with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen as she hilariously gored sacred cows left and right, alternately skewering Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the Democrats over the massive coverup of Biden’s dementia, Pfizer for pushing a vaccine of dubious efficacy on the whole country and even CNN itself for plummeting ratings. Whitney joins Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger to discuss her now-legendary performance and the pushback she’s inevitably received for promoting “conspiracy theories.” Plus a segment on the resurfacing of Stephen Colbert’s awkward moment trying to silence Claire Danes as the actress began explaining that members of the intelligence community had told her of their adversarial relationship with the Trump administration. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
The number of homeless in the United States has grown by a third during the Biden years despite steady economic growth since the end of the pandemic. So how did this happen? Why did a rising tide not only fail to lift all boats, but now threatens to drown an even greater number of Americans living on the margins -- and under bridges, on sidewalks and in their cars? Jimmy speaks with Food Not Bombs founder Keith McHenry about the history of homelessness, why the problem remains so entrenched in the U.S. and why purported attempts to solve it have failed so spectacularly. Jimmy and McHenry then discuss where the tens of billions of dollars that have been allocated to solve the homelessness crisis really went since they’re obviously not being used as intended by the voting public.
A new year is upon us, and nearly everyone wants to know what’s going to happen — whether with the economy, the stock market, the Trump administration and all the other important arenas that affect our lives. Cue expert trend analyst Gerald Celente, who speaks with Jimmy about which direction the political, economic and social winds are blowing, and what to expect from the coming months. Plus segments on Donald Trump’s pledge to pull the United States out of the World Health Organization, efforts underway by the health insurance industry to compromise the Luigi Mangione trial and the removal from office of the anti-Israel student body president and vice president at the University of Michigan. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
Former Presidential candidate and current Trump advisor Vivek Ramaswamy caused quite a stir within the MAGA movement when he degraded US culture, suggesting that Americans no longer value excellence and instead pursue mediocrity. As a result, he says, we need to import more H1-B workers from places like India and China to restore American greatness. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Trump supporters are pushing back against Vivek, Elon Musk and others seeking to leverage the MAGA movement to support increasing immigration. Plus a segment with Max Blumenthal on the mad dash among the United States, Israel, Turkey and various Islamist terror groups to divvy up the spoils and create a failed state in what was once Syria. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
During a recent episode of SNL’s Weekend Update, Colin Jost appeared to be taken aback by the audience cheering when he mentioned the name “Luigi Mangione,” responding by suggesting that the “woohoo’s” were for justice. Jost, along with other stalwart defenders of the ruling class like Piers Morgan, have fired back at anyone offering even a modicum of support for Mangione or for suggesting there was any justification for the killing of a health insurance CEO. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Jost was just feigning dismay and how so many others who seem to understand much of the truth obscured by mainstream media narrative fail to grasp why anyone would defend Mangione. Plus segments on Candace Owens’ recent schooling of Piers Morgan over Netanyahu’s plans for Gaza, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s recent attempts to bribe the Slovakian President into voting for Ukraine’s entry into NATO and CNN’s dismay over Americans’ plummeting belief in the efficacy of vaccines. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Not that it’s a surprise at this point, but the Wall Street Journal is now reporting that pretty much everyone in Washington DC knew for some time that President Joe Biden was sundowning, and collectively worked to hide the fact from the public. Biden’s inner circle, in particular, shielded the President from scrutiny while also lashing out at anyone in the media who dared to point out the evidence in front of us all about Biden’s mental decline. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the Journal story and what it says about the Democratic Party and corporate media. Plus a segment featuring a compilation of corporate media mouthpieces like Joe Scarborough, Nicole Wallace, Brian Stelter and Chris Cilizza lying about Biden’s cognitive powers. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Tim Walz!
President Joe Biden endorsed a ban on congressional stock trading in an interview that’s being released this week, belatedly weighing in on an issue that has been debated on Capitol Hill for years. “Nobody in the Congress should be able to make money in the stock market while they’re in the Congress,” Biden said. Many observers have surmised that Biden’s statement is a direct shot at former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has become legendary — some would say notorious — for using her position and inside information to make particularly profitable stock trades. Jimmy, along with his panel of financial expert Carol Roth and Colonial Metals CEO Paul Stone, discuss why Biden might want to shiv Pelosi on his way out the White House door. Plus segments on Biden’s middle finger to truckers, the death throes of Justin Trudeau’s time as Canadian Prime Minister and the unconscionable pardons issued by the Biden administration to judges convicted in the notorious cash-for-kids scheme. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Mitt Romney!
Remember right before the 2020 election when CNN host Brian Stelter ran a lengthy segment explaining how the Hunter Biden laptop story was a big hoax, obviously generated in a conspiratorial manner by GOP partisans, likely in cahoots with Russia? Well, that makes one of you, since Brian himself claims it never happened. Except it did, which means that Brian Stelter is lying today about not having lied in the past. Quite the impressive tangle of lies — no wonder CNN has hired Stelter back after letting him go a couple of years ago. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Stelter is himself guilty of everything he accuses Republicans of doing. Plus segments on former Obama administration official Van Jones admitting that Donald Trump is smarter than Democrats, footage of assassinated Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi predicting the demise of Syria, and Dr. Casey Means testifying about all the critical health information that is routinely left out of medical school training. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
For some weeks now unidentified drones or some other form of unidentified craft have been spotted in the sky over New Jersey as well as other locations around the country. The government refuses to tell us just what these craft are, leading to wild speculation about aliens, Iranian motherships and god knows what else. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the varying theories about what these drones really area and what may actually be going on in the skies over Jersey. Plus segments on ABC News agreeing to pay Donald Trump $15 million for calling him a rapist on air and “the playbook” used by Big Pharma to discredit and marginalize critics like RFK jr. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Whether prominent politicians like Elizabeth Warren and Barack Obama or billionaire industrialists like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg, they all want to deal with the looming climate crisis. And they also don’t want to have to sacrifice personally in any way. And that’s why they fly in private jets, build mega-mansions and, in Obama’s case anyway, lecture poor people in third world countries about why they can’t have cars and air conditioning. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss this “sacrifice for thee, but not for me” approach so many of the ruling class apply to dealing with climate change. Plus segments on the Canadian government’s continued persecution of the protesting trucker and a Florida woman facing terrorism charges for responding angrily when her medical treatment was declined by her health insurance provider. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and RB Ham.
If you want to know how the United States will gin up the impending war with Iran, we need only look to the past, and previous wars we’ve artificially precipitated with phony catalysts. So explained Middle East scholar Patrick Clawson in a now-notorious speech as he ADVOCATED for what he called “crisis initiation” to make war with Iran happen. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Clawson’s description of past “crisis initiations” that have led to wars like the attack on the Maine, Pearl Harbor, and the Gulf of Tonkin incident. Plus segments on the conviction of Uhuru Movement members on conspiracy charges for “weaponizing free speech” and a health insurance provider backtracking on refusing to cover the cost of anasthesia after the killing of UnitedHealth CEO Brian Thompson. Also featuring Uhuru Movement Chairman Omali Yeshitela, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Andrew Cuomo!
Now that Syria’s longtime president Bashar al-Assad has fled the country, the leader of one of the rebel groups that helped drive Assad from power has filled the vacuum, becoming the nation’s new de facto president. His name is Muhammad Al-Jawlani, and he heads Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, a group the United States has branded a terrorist organization. There is even a $10 million reward currently being offered for bringing al-Jawlani to justice. Jimmy and his guest, journalist Richard Medhurst, discuss what is essentially a terrorist takeover of Syria, and one financed largely by the United States. Plus segments on longstanding U.S. plans to “take out” Syria, along with six other Middle Eastern and North African nations and the declaration from American officials that we have no plans to give up the third of Syrian territory we currently occupy. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Internal discussions at the White House (that may or may not involve Joe Biden depending on how lucid he is that day) have been underway regarding potential preemptive pardons for Dr. Anthony Fauci, former Congresswoman Liz Cheney, Democratic Senator-Elect Adam Schiff and any number of others who have in recent years come under withering Republican criticism. These would be blanket pardons, seeing as how none have been formally charged with any crimes. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Democrats’ desperation to avoid accountability for the COVID response, the January 6th investigations and Russiagate, all while maintaining a pretense of caring deeply about the “rule of law.” Plus a segment on UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer’s admission that the immigration crisis in Europe and the United States was all part of a plan. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from George Clooney!
Brian Thompson, the CEO of major insurance group UnitedHealthcare, was shot to death at point blank range in Midtown Manhattan on Wednesday morning before he was set to attend an investor conference. The masked gunman, who remains on the loose, appeared to be lying in wait and shot Thompson several times from behind, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a news conference. The motive for the shooting remains unknown, but speculation has surrounded the company’s policy of denying health care to customers as well as Thompson’s impending testimony about the company’s business practices. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the shocking and brazen attack.
Remember when Joe Biden SWORE up and down that he was not going to pardon his son, Hunter? Shouldn’t be too difficult to remember, seeing as how Biden made the pledge repeatedly, and the promise was echoed again and again by his mouthpiece, Karine Jean-Pierre. Biden would probably prefer that we all forget, but the video doesn’t lie — unlike Biden! Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Biden’s brazen reneging on a pledge he made with such seeming sincerity. Plus segments on the media complicity in pushing Biden’s pardon lie and the U.S., Turkey and Israel-backed terrorists seeking to topple Assad in Syria. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Think Donald Trump is the most anti-immigrant presidential candidate in history? Think again. You won’t believe what 2016 Democratic standard-bearer Hillary Clinton used to say about immigrants. Plus segments on Piers Morgan lying about having lied about October 7th, Trump’s Treasury Secretary nominee’s ties to George Soros and the CDC’s fevered efforts to gin up fear over bird flu. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Jay Bhattacharya, a Stanford University-trained physician and economist, is has been selected by President-elect Donald Trump as the next director of the National Institutes of Health, after Bhattacharya reportedly impressed HHS nominee Robert Kennedy jr.

Plus segments on why the American Medical Association is freaking out over RFK jr. potentially taking over at Health and Human Services, Canadian protesters derided as antisemites by Justin Trudeau for demanding the nation stop funding NATO violence and Kamala Harris’s seemingly drunken message to supporters she recently recorded. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Dimitri Lascaris!
Do you remember in 2021 when Matt Gaetz went on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show and spun a wild tale alleging he and his father were being extorted for $25 million to make sexual misconduct allegations go away, and that the money would be used to free an American being held in Iran? At the time it seemed like a crazy story and made little sense, but now more details have emerged, and it turns out Gaetz was 100% telling the truth. Jimmy and online journalist Ian Carroll discuss the latest revelations about the plot and speculate how Gaetz might have been the target of a “honeypot” operation to set up the extortion scheme. Plus segments on professional liar Jen Psaki calling for censorship of social media “misinformation” and Bill Clinton’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein temporarily being scrubbed from his Wikipedia page. Also featuring Russell Dobular, Keaton Weiss and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Vince Vaughn!
Matt Gaetz may be leaving Congress — and not to take a place in Donald Trump’s cabinet — but there’s little chance the Florida Republican will fade off into the darkness. More likely Gaetz will continue to be outspoken and reveal unpleasant truths, such as his recent allegation that a foreign government — albeit one he refused to identify — was responsible for murdering Jeffrey Epstein. Jimmy and guest Ian Carroll discuss just which foreign government Gaetz could possibly be talking about. Plus segments on Marjorie Taylor Greene’s calls to expose all the reports on Congressional sexual misconduct, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau confirming that his country would arrest Benjamin Netanyahu if he sets foot on Canadian soil and Rachel Maddow taking a $5 million pay cut at MSNBC. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
With the anti-Tulsi Gabbard media campaign in full swing, we decided to revisit the most popular segment The Jimmy Dore Show has ever produced, featuring Zionist New York Times writer Bari Weiss’s appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast. When Gabbard’s name came up, Weiss sought to smear her as an “Assad toady” and “the motherlode of bad ideas,” but all she wound up doing was exposing her own ignorance, lack of original thinking and fealty to the establishment. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss just how hilariously delicious this interaction was. Plus segments on The View host Sunny Hostin having to issue a correction about Matt Gaetz and Biden’s insane push for World War III over Ukraine. Also featuring Matt Stoller, Scott Ritter, Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss!
During the just-completed presidential campaign, no media personalities were harsher on Donald Trump than the Morning Joe crew, with frequent references to the similarities between Trump and Hitler, not to mention plenty of talk of Nazis. But what a difference an election makes! Now Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are singing a different tune, even traveling down to Mar-a-Lago to work out their differences with the man they previously described as evil incarnate. TJDS guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss discuss this remarkable turnaround and just how elastic the Morning Joe hosts’ political assessments must be. Plus segments on the Kamala Harris campaign’s BONKERS spending choices, advertisers returning to Twitter and Twitch banning the use of “Zionist” as an allegedly antisemitic slur.
The Trump cabinet position appointments keep coming, and true to form, the President-Elect is throwing some surprise choices into the mix. One that shouldn’t be much of a suprise is his selection of RFK jr. as incoming Secretary of the Health and Human Services Department, seeing as how RFK was a key ally and advocate for Trump during the campaign. Nevertheless, as TJDS guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss point out, in certain circles the RFK pick is sending folks into apoplexy — and those circles include powerful business sectors like Big Pharma and Big Ag. Plus a segment on the Deep State freakout over Trump’s selection of Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence. Also featuring Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Jeff Bridges, man!
Die-hard MAGAs who were hoping Donald Trump would demonstrate his anti-war bona fides through his cabinet selections have come in for a rude awakening. Key positions have gone to devoted war hawks Mike Waltz and Elise Stefanik, as well as Trump’s intention to install notoriously bellicose neocon Florida Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State. TJDS guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss discuss the push and pull already emerging in Trump world between warmongers and the anti-interventionist voters who helped put Trump in office. Plus segments on other key appointments, including Fox News host Pete Hegseth to head the Defense Department and Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence. Also featuring Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
CNN host Dana Bash typically registers among the sea of corporatist, establishment-fluffing career media hacks populating the cable news shows. So it came as something of a surprise when Bash went off script recently and questioned Democrats’ electoral strategy of shunning an invitation from wildly popular podcaster Joe Rogan — especially because of how well an appearance helped Bernie Sanders in a previous presidential race. TJDS guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss discuss this unexpected turn from the usually reliable media stenographer Dana Bash. Plus segments on Nancy Pelosi shoving Kamala Harris and Joe Biden under the bus, Bernie pushing back at criticisms from Pelosi, and Trump tapping a longtime swamp creature as his new Chief of Staff. Also featuring journalist Lee Fang!
After the presidential election results were in and it became clear that Donald Trump would be the next U.S. President, liberals across the media sphere were apoplectic in their anger and frustration. And that was nowhere more true than on Jimmy Kimmel’s show in which the titular host could barely hold back tears as he contemplated just how badly the American people had let down him and his fellow celebrities. Jimmy and his live Rumble Time panel of Roseanne Barr, Dr. Drew, Drea de Matteo, Sam Tripoli and Stef Zamorano try and fail to feel sorry for Jimmy Kimmel. Plus more from the most recent Rumble Time episode, including segments on Robert De Niro suggesting Trump will come for him now, Big Pharma panicking over the possibility of RFK Jr. driving Trump’s health policy, Joe Scarborough blaming misogynistic blacks and Latinos for Kamala’s loss and Tucker Carlson explaining why January 6 was obviously a PsyOp. Also featuring Mike MacRae! And a phone call from Kamala Supporter!
You will not be surprised to learn that Joe Scarborough was upset, to put it mildly, at the results of Tuesday’s election. During MSNBC’s election night coverage the Morning Joe host spewed a series of lies about Donald Trump while expressing his exasperation at voters’ willingness to tick a box for a congenital liar. Jimmy notes that the irony of his commentary was, sadly, lost on Joe. Plus election night segments on Joy Ann Reid blaming white women for failing to show up for Kamala Harris, what Kamala could have done to win, Ohio refusing to count Jill Stein’s votes and much more! Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
On an appearance with CNN’s Dana Bash, Pennsylvania Democratic Senator John Fetterman acknowledged that Kamala Harris may be losing Jewish voters in Pennsylvania because of other Democrats’ less fervent support of Israel. Fetterman reassured Bash that he “follows” Israel and will support the Jewish nation no matter what. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Harris’ weaknesses with both Jewish and Muslim voters Plus segments featuring Fetterman telling Joe Rogan that he never bought into the whole Russiagate hoax, Bill Maher calling out the media for lying about Trump’s comments on what a warmonger Liz Cheney is and Tucker Carlson explaining to Jimmy how we know January 6th was a huge psyop. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Tim Walz!
Committed socialist politician and activist Kshama Sawant and Abandon Harris co-founder Hassan Abdel Salam joined The Jimmy Dore Show guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss to discuss their opposition to the Biden administration’s support for Israel’s genocide in Gaza and beyond, breaking the duopoly’s control of our politics, and their endorsement of Jill Stein even if votes for the Green Party will potentially lead to Kamala Harris’s loss in Michigan and elsewhere. Democrats, predictably enough, are lashing out at potential third party voters, lodging wild accusations of foreign influence and calling Jill Stein a grifter — all in a desperate effort to distract from the very real shortcomings of the Harris/Walz ticket and Democrats as a whole. Plus a segment on the CIA touting a new recruit representing the agency’s “woke” turn into a more diverse global terrorist organization. Also featuring Christian Parenti and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Earlier in October the Grayzone reporter Jeremy Loffredo traveled to Israel to report on the ongoing conflict between Israel and its neighbors in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and Iran. In response to his reporting, Israeli authorities arrested Loffredo and placed him in solitary confinement for three days, during which he was subjected to grueling interrogation. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss talk to Loffredo about his harrowing experience and just why Israel is so threatened by his reporting, as well as interviews he conducted with Israelis at the Gaza border denying aid trucks access to the starving Palestinian people. Plus a segment on a recent Trump ad targeting older Jewish voters playing on their fear of Palestinians.
Former Democratic Congressman and presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich is running for Congress again, but this time as an independent, looking to help break the deadlock the two parties — often acting more like just one — hold over out polical system. He spoke with Jimmy Dore about the state of the race and why he considers himself an essential peace candidate when both Republicans and Democrats seem hell-bent on careening directly into World War III. Plus segments on The New Republic Magazine labeling Joe Rogan “one of the worst people in the world,” Congressman Thomas Massie calling for an end to arms sales to Israel, ads featuring Martha Stewart and Sesame Street’s Elmo breaking the law and a black former inmate who wrote a book and thanked Donald Trump.

Increasing numbers of Israeli soldiers are becoming disillusioned with fighting in Gaza and other areas of conflict in Lebanon and the West Bank, leading some to refuse to return to the battlefield. According to a report in Israeli outlet HaMakom, interviews with over 20 parents and fighters in a range of battalions have revealed increasing disatisfaction in the ranks. Among the Nahal Brigade, soldiers spend five weeks fighting in Gaza before returning home to rest, something they have done 11 times so far since the beginning of fighting October 2023. Jimmy speaks with Congressional candidate Jose Vega and retired Marine Scott Ritter about why the circumstances in Gaza would lead IDF soldiers in particular to refuse to fight any more. Plus segments on MSNBC’s disappearing of a segment during which journalist Jeremy Scahill excoriates the network for pushing Israeli propaganda, how opposition to the US-led world order is bringing other nations together and a BBC whistleblower’s revelations about the network’s pro-Israel bias.

During the three-day BRICS summit in the city of Kazan, presided over by Russian President Vladimir Putin, assembled leaders discussed the deepening of their nations’ financial cooperation, including the development of alternatives to Western-dominated payment systems, efforts to settle regional conflicts and expansion of the BRICS group of nations. Moscow-based International Affairs & Security Analyst Mark Sleboda spoke with Jimmy about the meeting, and whether the growth of BRICS portends the end of a global financial system dominated by the United States and western Europe. Plus segments on Kamala Harris’ worst answer yet on Joe Biden’s dementia and the Trump supporter accused of the most recent assassination attempt. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano. And a hilarious parody of Kamala Harris’ recent FaceTime video!
Jimmy welcomed John Jay College economics professor and former investigative journalist Christian Parenti to the show to discuss the fundamental lie at the foundation of the whole “wokeness” phenomenon — specifically that the act of centering identity in the political discourse inevitably, and by design, marginalizes discussion of class while eroding worker solidarity. Specific topics covered include whether wokeness can continue to expand in influence or will taper off and die, why young people will turn away from the woke agenda in favor of more pressing economic concerns and a preschool that warned children not to mis-gender animals. Plus a segment on a recent clip from MSNBC featuring a discussion of why Arab-Americans in swing states are abandoning Kamala Harris. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Kurt Metzger!
Popular comedian Andrew Schulz likely thought securing an interview with GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump would do wonders for his profile and career. Yet immediately following the interview’s airing, a Brooklyn venue Schulz had booked to shoot an upcoming special reacted by canceling the booking. Jimmy and Americans’ Comecian Kurt Metzger discuss the capriciousness of some club owners and speculate about the motivations behind these particular club owners’ decision to blackball Andrew Schulz. Plus segments on wokeness as a means of distracting from class struggle, the media all repeating the same talking points about Kamala Harris’ recent interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier and Trump’s greatest hits from the recent Al Smith charity dinner. Also featuring Dr. Christian Parenti, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Liam Neeson!
The Posse Comitus Act, passed by Congress in 1878, bans the United States Armed Forces from being used to enforce domestic policies. Meaning the government can’t deploy the army to suppress protesters or otherwise act as police within the U.S. borders. Except that the Defense Department recently issued a directive that conflicts directly with the Posse Comitus Act and states that the military can and will be deployed domestically to crush internal dissent Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss all the problems inherent in using the military as an internal police force. Plus segments on Biden sending hundreds of millions of dollars MORE to Ukraine, corrupt dieticians lying about how artificially colored cereals like Froot Loops are perfectly healthy, late President Gerald Ford predicting Kamala Harris and online commentator Candace Owens lighting into Piers Morgan over COVID. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Barack Obama and Mitt Romney!
It seems like everyone in mainstream news media has just accepted that Kamala Harris “won” the Democratic presidential nomination without getting a single vote in a primary. So it fell to an attendee at a Kamala appearance on Univision to point out to the Vice President that some voters are uncomfortable with the way she was anointed and pushed aside the rightful Democratic nominee and sitting president. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Harris’ inevitably mediocre response to a question she feels she shouldn’t have to answer. Plus segments on the New York Appelate Court destroying the arguments underpinning Trump’s fraud case, black voters clapping back at Obama for vote shaming, Trump’s vow to “remove” the “Jew haters” from America and Bill Clinton unwittingly doing a commercial for Donald Trump while talking to voters about immigration. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Seed oils — going by a variety of names including “canola oil,” “sunflower oil” and “vegetable oil” are everywhere, in virtually any processed food item sold at your local grocery store. Unfortunately, says osteopathic physician and board-certified family physician, as well as bestselling author, Dr. Joseph Mercola, these seed oils are also essentially poisons, doing great harm to the body’s cellular health, specifically the mitochondria. Jimmy and Dr. Mercola discuss the pernicious ubiquity of seed oils and how consumers can find alternatives that will deliver better cellular health, as well as the health benefits of enjoying direct sunlight during “solar noon” and some of the other widespread lies the medical establishment has foisted on us over the years. Plus a segment on a Grayzone reporter confronting State Dept. spokesman Matt Miller on his lies about Israel and Gaza!
Remember when Howard Stern was a towering anti-establishment figure, the shock jock who wasn’t afraid to speak his mind, mock the culture’s sacred cows and push every possible limit? Well, those days are clearly over as Stern has embraced a new role as an inveterate “shitlib” who kisses up to the most mediocre and compromised political media figures, from Hillary Clinton to Joe Scarborough. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the tongue-bath interview Stern recently held with Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris. Plus segments on Fox News calling out Israel for targeting Palestinian journalists, Hillary Clinton insisting that the government needs to control social media, 60 Minutes deceptively editing the recent interview with Kamala Harris and Jimmy smacking down an NBC reporter who approached him about allegedly spreading Russian misinformation. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Tim Walz!
With the folks of North Carolina, Georgia and Florida still reeling from Hurricane Helene’s devastation and another Category 5 hurricane building up steam and headed for Florida’s gulf coast, Vice President Kamala Harris decided now would be the ideal time to tweet about how the United States Government is sending hundreds of millions of dollars to Lebanon to assist with the devastation wrought by Israel on civilians there — using U.S.-made bombs, no less. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the epic ratio-ing Harris’s tone deaf tweet received. Plus segments on Americans’ growing discontent with the Electoral College, Trump pushing for an attack on Iran’s nuclear installations and White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre’s inability to answer a basic question about funding for Lebanese civilians but not for Hurricane Helene’s victims. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Tim Walz!
As the devastation from Hurricane Helene slowly became evident, the public also slowly became aware of another disaster: the reponse — or lack thereof — from FEMA to get aid to the desperate millions without power, without water, without food and without medicine. Multiple videos from irate residents decrying FEMA’s absence have since gone viral. Meanwhile, private individuals eager to bring aid and other supplies to hurricane victims are similarly exercised at government restrictions and threats of arrest to anyone providing unauthorized assistance. Plus segments on Chuck Schumer’s about-face on illegal immigration, Bill Gates’ insistence that the government crack down on speech that questions vaccines’ effectiveness, and western corporations efforts to buy up as much of Ukrainian farmland as possible. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
CBS News’ moderators at the recent Vice Presidential debate did a fine job of asking candidates Tim Walz and JD Vance the kind of standard, narrative-reinforcing questions that we’ve come to expect from mainstream news media “journalists.” But what Jimmy wants to know is why no one asked why there were no questions about how Kamala Harris — campaigning on a platform of restoring our democracy — was installed as Democratic nominee without winning a single primary vote. Jimmy and Miserable Liberal Stef Zamorano discuss they key questions that WEREN’T asked but should have been during the debate.

Along with his sister, Dr. Casey Means, Harvard Business School graduate Calley Means has written the book, “Good Energy” which explores how cellular dysfunction driven by poor dietary choices fuels chronic health issues and offers actionable solutions. In this conversation he and Jimmy discuss how processed food is literally poisoning our nation, the five biomarkers everyone should understand before making dietary decisions and the burgeoning Ozempic scam. Plus segments on MSNBC blaming Donald Trump for his own assassination attempt and the onetime cozy relationship between Trump and Stephen Colbert. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano, Drea de Matteo and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Jeff Bridges!
On September 13, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken held a press conference in which he accused the Russian media outlet RT of covertly disseminating Kremlin-produced content and messaging via African Stream, a PanAfrican media platform distributed via its website, AfricanStream.media, and on social media platforms. Shortly after Blinken’s press conference YouTube suspended African Stream’s channel. Meta rapidly followed suit, suspending its accounts on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads. On September 24th, TikTok bowed to the pressure and suspended African Stream’s account as well. Jimmy discusses this transparent act of government censorship that liberals will nevertheless applaud because they’ve fully bought into Russiagate. Plus segments on Rep. Thomas Massie calling out both parties’ corruption over the budget, former CIA head Leon Panetta describing Israel’s pager attacks on Lebanon as “terrorism,” Elon Musk caving to Brazilian censors and more than 700 members of the deep state endorsing Kamala Harris.

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib recently accused Michigan state attorney general Dana Nessel’s office of “bias” when Nessel decided to pursue charges against pro-Palestinian protesters that she had not pursued against individuals arrested for protesting against other issues. CNN hosts Jake Tapper and Dana Bash then spread the lie that Tlaib had said Nessel made the decision because she’s Jewish, something Tlaib never said. Tapper and Bash then went on to decry the prevalence of antisemitism (“It’s everywhere”) before being forced to issue half-hearted “corrections.” Plus segments on former CDC head Robert Redfield admitting that RFK jr. was right about COVID, Joe Biden responding to increased violence in the Middle East by sending more U.S. troops there, Donald Trump admitting he just does what his wealthy donors ask of him and Sopranos actress Drea de Matteo arguing that more Hollywood celebrities should speak out against Kamala Harris.

Protesters in New York have demanded accountability after police fired at a suspected fare-evader in a busy subway station, hitting a bystander in the head. The man, Gregory Delpeche, remains in the hospital in critical condition and has undergone cranial surgery, according to US media. Police said two officers shot at the suspected fare-evader on Sunday after he refused to comply with orders, muttered threats and drew a knife. A second bystander, another officer and the suspect also were injured. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the trigger-happy NYPD officers who shot not only one of their own but also two innocent bystanders, all over a $2.90 fare evasion. Plus segments on the devastating impact of consuming seed oils on the body and Kamala Harris’s recent head-scratching comments that left Oprah wondering what was going on. Also featuring Calley Means, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano! Plus a phone call from Joe Biden!
Evan Barker is a former Democratic campaign operative who says she has raised tens of millions of dollars for Democratic candidates and organizations. But over the years she witnessed the party changing, increasingly embracing elites and corporate interests while abandoning the working class. After attending the recent Democratic National Convention, Barker announced she was leaving the party in a widely read piece in Newsweek. Jimmy speaks to Barker about the changes they’ve both witnessed inside the Democratic Party, whether there is a seismic political shift underway and how rejecting Democrats has cost them personally and socially. Plus segments on an undercover video in which the New York City COVID czar admits to engaging in wild sex parties during the pandemic and the Secret Service whistleblower who came forward to claim that the most recent Trump assassination attempt was an inside job. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
At least fourteen people have been killed and another estimated 450 people injured after radio communications devices owned by Hezbollah members exploded in Beirut on Wednesday, the Health Ministry said. The new wave of detonations follows a series of similar, simultaneous explosions on Tuesday in Lebanon and Syria, which reportedly killed at least 12 people, including two children, and wounded nearly 3,000. Reports say that the second day of the attack included devices like handheld, walkie-talkie portable radios and solar equipment, rather than pagers—the devices involved in the previous wave of explosions. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss this new electronics-based front in the war between Israel and Hezbollah, what it suggests for the future of this and other conflicts and the creepily gleeful responses some prominent commentators offered up in response to these terrorist attacks. Plus segments on a whistleblower coming forward to claim ABC News rigged the recent presidential debate for Kamala Harris and news that money laundering charges against Stop Cop City activists have been dropped. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Kamala Supporter!
Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance has been at the forefront of the Trump campaign’s criticism of the Biden-Harris border policy, specifically reiterating the widely-debunked story about Haitian immigrants eating household pets in Springfield, Ohio. And while Vance has offered up legitimate complaints about the harmful impact of dropping tens of thousands of migrants on a depressed midwestern town, he’s also leaving out a huge part of the story — the part of the story his donors don’t want told. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the role imperialism and repeated U.S. invasions of Haiti have played in the immiseration of the Caribbean nation and why that is driving people to flee for the United States. Plus segments on 30,000 Boeing machinists going out on strike and women in Scotland fighting back against trans incursions into protected women’s spaces. Also featuring Sopranos actress Drea de Matteo, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Tim Walz!
The latest assassination attempt against Donald Trump merely underscores that there are those who are determined to prevent a second Trump administration at all costs. Jimmy speaks with Foundation for Freedom Online Executive Director Mike Benz about the threat Trump poses to the Deep State and just what lengths the shadowy security state will go to in order to stop him. Plus a segment with Benz on Victoria Nuland’s admission that she and her NATO cronies prevented an early end to the Ukraine War and segments with Sopranos actress Drea de Matteo about her ostricization in Hollywood after refusing the jab and a Polish Member of Parliament’s harsh words for U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Thanks to the hardworking folks in the intelligence community, we now have new allegations of Russian interference into the 2024 presidential election. Two employees of the Russian state media network RT, previously known as Russia Today, were indicted, dozens of internet domains were seized for “malign influence campaigns” and a new visa restriction policy was introduced as part of the efforts to check foreign influence. Jimmy and podcaster Ryan Dawson discuss the timing of these indictments and the online commentators like Dave Rubin, Benny Johnson and Tim Pool who have been caught up in the controversy. Plus segments on Candace Owens’ controversial suspension from YouTube and Jimmy’s commentary on the Harris-Trump presidential debate. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
In a move that has sent shockwaves through Washington DC, Republican former Vice President Dick Cheney has announced that he plans to vote for Democrat Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential election. For decades Cheney has been widely denounced as “Darth Vader” by Democrats for his record during the Bush administration, but now that the new evil of Donald Trump has arisen, even someone as vile and universally loathed as Dick Cheney has become a welcome ally to Dems. Jimmy and podcaster Ryan Dawson discuss this dramatic shift in Democratic Party alliances and what it says about Democrats that they can so readily embrace Dick Cheney, the embodiment of political evil. Plus segments on Barack Obama’s dramatic announcement opposing free speech and the mainstream media getting smacked down for its pro-Democrat bias. Also featuring Chris Hedges, Matt Taibbi, Mike MacRae and Kurt Metzger. And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
Daily Wire contributor Matt Walsh joined Jimmy in studio to discuss his new film, “Am I Racist?” A follow-up to his previous effort, “What Is a Woman?”, the film finds Walsh engaging with groups that seek to purge racism from their thoughts. Plu segments on comedian Rob Schneider deftly handling a heckler at a recent standup performance and a discussion of Joe Scarborough praising AOC and other progressives for falling in line and abandoning ideology in favor of trying to help Democrats win. Also featuring Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss!
A clip from an English-language Israeli podcast showing hosts Naor Meningher and Eytan Weinstein discussing the idea of eradicating all Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and Gaza has gone viral online. In an episode of Two Nice Jewish Boys, which aired three weeks ago, host Weinstein said: “If you gave me a button to just erase Gaza, every single living being in Gaza would no longer be living tomorrow. I would press it in a second.”He claimed that “most Israelis” would do the same. Jimmy and Due Dissidence hosts Keaton Weiss and Russell Dobular discuss the horrific statements from these “nice” boys, and the double standard on censorship on social media that allows this kind of commentary to be published and monetized. Plus segments on the Canadian government’s crushing of rail workers during a recent labor dispute and former Clinton administration cabinet official Robert Reich’s call for the unconstitutional imprisonment of Elon Musk. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
In April 2023, the U.S. government indicted 82-year-old African People’s Socialist Party chairman Omali Yeshitela, as well as Penny Hess and Jesse Nevel — together known as the Uhuru 3 — on charges of “failing to register as foreign agents,” merely for expressing their views on Ukraine. The indictment followed the FBI’s July 29, 2022, raid on Yeshitela’s home and several other homes and offices of Uhuru solidarity movement leaders with flashbang grenades and assault weapons. Jimmy speaks with Yeshitela about the FBI raid on his home, the government’s case against the Uhuru 3 and why the group has been so aggressively targeted. Plus a segment with Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Chris Hedges about his recent bout with censorship by TikTok over his criticism of Kamala Harris.
After more than a month as the Democratic presidential nominee, Kamala Harris finally sat down for an interview with the media — and even brought her “aw shucks” midwestern bear of a running mate Tim Walz along to help out. The two covered a range of issues, including the border, fracking, unemployment and Walz’s military record with CNN’s Dana Bash. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger can’t get over just how terribly Harris comes across, that she seemed half-drunk or on barbituates much of the time and that even with plenty of lead-in time to prepare the two nevertheless gave remarkably poor answers to even the most obvious questions. Plus a segment on Joe Rogan’s evisceration of Time Magazine for promoting the health and societal benefits of processed foods. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Jimmy sits down for a wide-ranging and thought-provoking interview from Trump Tower with Turning Point USA chief creative officer Benny Johnson. Plus a segment on British-Syrian journalist Richard Medhurst’s arrest in England on terrorism charges.
CNN was covering Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s speech dropping out of the presidential race, but as soon as RFK started telling the truth about Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party, all of a sudden the speech was no longer newsworthy and CNN immediately cut away. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why it’s so important for mainstream media outlets to silence RFK and marginalize his candidacy as “quixotic.” Plus segments on the arrest by French authorities of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov and presidential candidate Cornel West’s decision to get behind a COVID truth commission. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has made the difficult decision to suspend his campaign, pointing out that the focused, determined, methodical screw job he received at the hands of the Democrats would likely only render him a spoiler candidate taking votes away from Donald Trump and helping hand the election to the very forces undermining his candidacy. Jimmy discusses the themes RFK Jr. brings up to explain why he’s suspending his campaign but doing so in a manner that will allow many of his supporters to still vote for him without assisting Democrats in swing states. Plus segments on RFK’s glowing reception from the crowd at a Trump rally and the forlorn efforts of pro-Palestinian protesters at the DNC to persuade the Harris people to allow a Palestinian to speak at the convention. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Joe Biden’s speech Monday at the DNC was so full of whoppers that even mainstream media outlets typically in the tank for establishment Democrats like PBS and CNN took note, running “Fact check” pieces on the President. Among his lies included widely-debunked accusations against Donald Trump as well as outrageous exaggerations of his own accomplishments in office. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the parade of lies and fearmongering reflected in what will likely be the last major speech of Biden’s presidency. Plus segments on RFK Jr.s likely announcement that he’s dropping out of the 2024 race and endorsing Trump, Brazilian President Lula da Silva serving as a U.S. puppet by calling for new Venezuelan elections and multimillionaire Michelle Obama hypocritically telling DNC attendees to be “suspicious” of the rich.
While addressing a group of ardent Israel supporters, Donald Trump made the decidedly surprising assertion that Israel and its US-based lobbying wing AIPAC do not wield sufficient power over American politics. 15 years ago the lobby was much stronger, Trump said, and any deviation from a staunchly pro-Israel position by an American politician would have ended their career. Today, Trump announced without any sense of comedic intent, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer sounds like a Palestinian. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Trump’s apparent feeling that Israel should hold greater sway over American foreign policy. Plus a segment on commentator Candace Owens’ surprising recent statements about the founding of Israel and an on-the-street interview from a protest near the Chicago DNC with comedian and Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead about the state of the abortion debate. Also featuring Mike MacRae and a phone call from the British police about possibly arresting Jimmy Dore!
When she spoke out against COVID lockdowns, and specifically the extended school closings in her hometown of San Francisco, Levi’s executive Jennifer Sey says she was driven out of her job and eventually fled California for Colorado. There, she says, she realized that corporate America had no place for her, so she decided to launch her own athletic clothing line. Jimmy and Ms. Sey discuss the uniformity of thought demanded by the corporate system and why she felt she had to strike out on her own. Jimmy and Sey, a former top ranked gymast, open the conversation by discussing the dramatic change that has come over female gymnasts’ physiques in the past 50 years. Plus featuring segments on the Justice Department’s recent successful antitrust lawsuit against Google and the Olympics controversy over Algerian boxer Imane Khelif. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer!
The New York Times on Wednesday dropped a bombshell report revealing that Hunter Biden had actively solicited State Department help on behalf of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma while his father was vice president. The information was revealed via a FOIA request of State Department documents that was shared with Times reporters just a week after Hunter’s father dropped out of the 2024 presidential race. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether they believe the timing of this release and the Times story was merely a coincidence. Plus a segment with former top gymnast Jennifer Sey on the Olympics controversy over Algerian boxer Imane Khelief and another on the huge lie the public has been told about cholesterol and statins. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Former Representative and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard has been placed onto a threat list by the TSA. Gabbard is well known for her opposition to Vice President (then Senator) Kamala Harris in the 2020 presidential primary, and for her realist foreign policy views, particularly on Syria. Beginning two weeks ago, Gabbard and her husband have found their boarding passes marked with the “SSSS” designation indicating that the passenger is on a threat list known as “Quiet Skies” that subjects passengers to lengthy “random” searches and tracking by air marshals. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the appearance on Laura Ingraham’s show that likely led to Tulsi’s name being added to the list and what it says about our security state that a prominent politician and member of the US armed forces can be treated this way. Plus segments on Kamala Harris stealing Trump’s big idea to eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers, Hezbollah missiles penetrating Israel’s vaunted “Iron Dome” defense system, a majority of Americans now opposing sending US troops to defend Israel, and the Japanese city of Nagasaki refusing to invite Israel to participate in an event commemorating the city’s bombing in 1945. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from still-president-for-now Joe Biden!
Renowned University of Chicago Professor of Political Science John Mearsheimer has given a “gloomy” analysis about Israel’s standing, saying that the Middle Eastern nation’s problems are “deep, unfixable” and getting worse. Mearsheimer made his comment during an interview with Judge Napolitano, saying that ten months into its ruthless war against the Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip, the Israeli army is worn out, yet it has not defeated Palestinian resistance fighters in Hamas. “Israel is stuck in Gaza,” said the professor. It’s a hornet’s nest from which it had to leave in 2005, he pointed out, adding that Israel simply cannot comprehend that the catastrophic destruction and unresolved problems it has caused in Gaza lie on its border, and also has no hope of defeating Hezbollah in Lebanon or Iran. Plus segments on a top Israeli official lamenting that his country can’t starve two million Palestinians to death, Kamala Harris’s VP choice Tim Walz explaining that free speech doesn’t allow for misinformation or hate speech, NFL teams using facial recognition to scan game ticketholders and the latest Kamala Harris word salad.

Jimmy is joined by the eponymous host of The Mel K Show to discuss the subject matter of her soon-to-be-released book, "Americans Anonymous: Restoring Power to the People One Citizen at a Time.” In this wide-ranging interview the two discuss how the Founders’ vision for the republic can be reclaimed, and control of our own lives can be reasserted from the banks, Big Tech, the pharmaceutical industry, Wall Street, the military-industrial complex and the government that serves them all. Plus segments on U.K. residents being arrested for “unacceptable” Facebook posts and Syrian soldiers retaking oil fields in their own country previously held by the United States forces. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
On Monday the Dow Jones Industrial Average and NASDAQ both nosedived, recording substantial losses totaling trillions of dollars. Other economic indicators remain poor as well, and despite what alleged efforts the Fed may take, the signs of a coming recession are impossible to ignore. One individual who anticipated the crash was billionaire investor Warren Buffett, who unloaded a substantial amount of his Apple stock holdings just before the crash. Jimmy talks to Economics Professor Richard Wolff about how investors like Buffett help drive crashes, and why crashes like this are typical for a capitalist system and should be expected to happen every 4-7 years. Plus segments on Tulsi Gabbard calling out MSNBC for spreading fake news about Joe Rogan and Kamala Harris, Elon Musk getting “community noted” for the misinformation he spread about Venezuela and who the key players behind the recent Trump assassination attempt may be. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Ian Carroll, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. Plus a phone call from Jeff Bridges!
Once the intelligence community as a whole turned against Donald Trump and used their entire bag of tricks to bring him down, Democrats immediately jumped on board. Now the transformation is complete, with the formerly anti-CIA Democrats fully embracing the FBI, the CIA and all other arms of the intelligence industry octopus. Jimmy talks to popular online commentator Ian Carroll about the past 40 years of Democratic Party evolution from critic to passionate lover of all things intelligence. Plus a segment on the European Union’s new head diplomat announcing that she will not negotiate an end to the Ukraine War. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Mike MacRae and Kurt Metzger! And a phone call from JD Vance!
After his time in office, former President Donald Trump lamented that Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro was still in power when the Latin American country had been poised to fall, which would have allowed U.S. interests to swoop in and control Venezuela’s vast oil supply. This is a case of Trump saying the quiet part out loud, revealing that the United States’ interests in Venezuela has nothing to do with the well-being of the Venezuelan people and all about serving corporate interests. Jimmy speaks with Corporate Coup: Venezuela and the End of US Empire author Anya Parampil about Trump’s complicity in destroying Venezuela and the resultant migrant crisis, as well as the media’s ongoing lies about the recent Venezuelan elections. Plus an interview with Patrick Courrielche about his documentary exposing the lies behind the “Sound of Freedom” film and a segment on the FBI director’s refusal to release the results of a police raid on Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan home. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Controversy is swirling over the recent Venezuelan elections — specifically the announcement the President Nicolas Maduro has won another term despite terrible economic conditions, a united opposition and crippling sanctions imposed by the United States. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken addressed the election results, expressed concern that they may be fraudulent and vaguely implied that the United States may “take action” if it’s determined that Maduro didn’t actually win. Jimmy explains how propagandized Americans must be to think they need to care adamantly about whether Venezuela’s elections are fair. Plus segments on Seymour Hersh’s reporting that Obama and Kamala Harris, along with other Democratic power-players, threatened to invoke the 25th amendment against Joe Biden if he refused to step aside and the million-dollar settlement bestowed on anti-Trump FBI agent Peter Strzok by the Justice Department as a payoff for his service to the deep state. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker!
Van Jones has effected a full 180 on Kamala Harris, recently admitting that the VP is not particularly popular to today claiming that he spoke on the phone with 20,000 black men who, he says, stand at the ready to defend the presumptive Democratic nominee from any and all criticism. Putting aside the question of how one speaks on the phone with 20,000 people, Jones is essentially saying that because she is black, Harris is above criticism. Jimmy talks about how convenient it is for Harris that because she represents a minority group she cannot be criticized. Plus segments on California Governor Gavin Newsom’s new initiative to clear the state’s streets of homeless encampments, Trump acknowledging that Netanyahu is the main obstacle to peace in Gaza and Representative Thomas Massie skipping Netanyahu’s address to Congress. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
United States Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle acquiesced to a subpoena to appear in front of the House of Representatives to answer questions about why GOP candidate and former president Donald Trump came within a few inches of being assassinated under her watch. The results were brutal, with Cheatle withering under grilling from both sides of the aisle in the form of Nancy Mace, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ro Khanna. Jimmy goes over Cheatle’s testimony and all the holes in her claims about what happened on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania. Plus segments on Don Lemon denying that Kamala Harris is an African-American and MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski insisting that a “hate campaign” has begun against Harris based on the fact that some people intentionally mispronounce her first name. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Nick Cruse!
Trump Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance has been promoted as a populist with working class Appalachia roots who will promote the interests of everyday Americans over the rich and powerful. Yet at the same time he is almost entirely a product of multibillioniare Peter Thiel, who helped shepherd Vance’s career and also launched the massive surveillance company Pallantir. So who is the real J.D. Vance? Jimmy speaks with investigative journalist Whitney Webb about Vance’s history and how no one rises to his level of prominence without serving the corporate machine. Plus segments on Democrats’ cries of “racism!” in opposition to a GOP-led Voter ID law and the sad state of the left in the United States. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Craig “Pasta” Jardula and Nick Cruse!
Hospitals, banks, airports, airlines and broadcasters worldwide were impacted by a massive, ongoing IT outage Friday. Thousands of Windows PCs, which many companies and organizations rely on as part of their critical internet infrastructure, were hit by the CrowdStrike outage. Perhaps most concerning, several US states reported that their emergency 911 call centers were also hit. The outage was blamed on a faulty update from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike. The company handles the security of many Windows PCs and services around the world. In a statement Friday morning, CrowdStrike said the issue had been "identified, isolated and a fix has been deployed." Jimmy discusses the shameless TV interview given by casually attired CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz, who refused to answer basic questions or take any responsibility for the global tech catastrophe his company caused. Plus segments on loony Rachel Maddow’s conclusion that Trump VP pick JD Vance is a far right wacko because he’s a fan of Lord of the Rings, the Teamsters’ Union president addressing the RNC and wild accusations that Iran was behind the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
The story unfolding about the MASSIVE security failures that allowed 20-year-old Thomas Crooks to fire a direct shot at Donald Trump from less than 150 yards away during the former President’s Butler, Pennsylvania rally becomes more surreal and unbelievable every day. The latest bit to emerge is that snipers who were stationed inside the building saw Crooks outside looking at the building and disappearing before he climbed up on the roof to take his position. Oh, and the head of the US Secret Service says the roof was too pitched to send anyone up to investigate it before hand. How steep is the pitch? 10 degrees. Jimmy discusses all this and more about the unbelievable circumstances surrounding the assassination attempt. Plus a segment with “The Racket” author and independent journalist Matt Kennard on the illusion of democracy in our corporate oligarchy and whether Biden’s COVID diagnosis is the excuse he’ll need to drop out of the race. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, President Biden addressed the nation, calling for all sides to tone down the violent rhetoric. Of course, the day before the shooting Biden had said Democrats should put Trump “in the bull’s-eye,” along with his usual rhetoric about Trump ending democracy, being a dictator and representing an existential threat to the nation, so he himself was one of the main offenders. Jimmy points out how much aggressive and violence-laced verbiage has come out about Trump from Biden and fellow Democrats during the 2024 campaign. Plus segments on the dismissal of the classified documents case against Trump, the story about Trump’s assassination attempt not adding up and Dr. David Martin on the fraudulent agenda of the Food and Drug Administration. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
The Trump assassination attempt has rocked the nation, leaving many bewildered how secret service could have possibly allowed a shooter such ready access to a location with a clear shot at the presumptive Republican nominee during a rally. Not only that, but witnesses apparently spotted the shooter well before he fired at Trump, but nothing was done to prevent the attempt from taking place. Jimmy and Due Dissidence co-hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss discuss all the fishy circumstances surrounding the entire incident. Plus segments on Tucker Carlson predicting this very event six months ago and Rachel Maddow’s glowing review of Joe Biden’s non-stop warmongering foreign policy. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Jake Tapper!
During a recent appearance on CNN, Democratic Congressman Adam Smith chided President Joe Biden for criticizing the so-called “elites” who were trying to drive him out of the presidential race after his disastrous debate performance. Those are the same elites who put their collective thumb on the scale in Biden’s favor in 2020, Smith said, so the President should show a little more respect. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss this “quiet part out loud” moment from Smith where he essentially admits that the Democratic primaries are not, well, democratic. Plus segments on MSNBC host Ali Velshi’s recent unhinged anti-Trump rant, CNN’s Jake Tapper suddenly discovering Joe Biden’s mental decline and Biden’s slurred speech during the recent NATO summit. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Joe Biden and George Clooney!
In attempting to highlight how vigorous Joe Biden is, White House spokesman John Kirby described an upcoming event where the President will be speaking as a “big boy press conference.” And then Karine Jean-Pierre repeated it! These are the people who are supposed to be bolstering Biden and propping him up. Jimmy discusses how everyone in the White House appears to be treating the President of the United States like he’s a toddler. Plus segments on the left’s surprising victory in recent French elections, The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal discussing whether the Israeli newspaper Haaretz will apologize for smearing him and then publishing a story corroborating his reporting, and White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre melting down under withering press questioning about Joe Biden’s declining mental health.
Remember the drug gamma-hydroxybutyrate, known familiarly as “GHB,” which was widely derided as dangerous and a threat to the nation’s youth? What if you found out that GHB is, in fact, a miracle drug that can help address health issues as wide ranging as insomnia, depression, erectile dysfunction and narcolepsy? And that the widespread maligning of GHB was part of a coordinated campaign directed by powerful interests in the pharmaceutical industry? Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss GHB’s myriad applications and why fentanyl is readily available but GHB is so scarce. Plus segments on the recently resolved water crisis in Idaho, Blaire White’s scathing take on Dylan Mulvaney and the government’s final insult thrown Julian Assange’s way as he left prison and returned home to Australia. Also featuring Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, Idaho congressional candidate David Leavitt and Stef Zamorano.
In this episode Jimmy interviews James Corbett, an award-winning investigative journalist and, since 2007, host of The Corbett Report, an independent, listener-supported alternative news source. In this wide-ranging discussion, Jimmy and Corbett cover the malign global influence of Bill Gates, the truth behind 9/11, the globalist agenda of maximized centralized control, the lost promise of the Internet and cryptocurrency and much more. Also featuring Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano.
The Democratic-leaning corporate media, consisting of outlets like MSNBC and CNN, have been lying consistently and vociferously about Joe Biden’s mental acuity for years now. Despite the president’s obvious decline, the likes of Anderson Cooper, Joe Scarborough, Joy Reid and many others have claimed that video showing Biden’s cognitive failures were “cheap fakes” and that Biden remains “sharp as a tack.” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the Orwellian media’s insistence that you not believe your own eyes when it comes to Biden’s mental state. Plus a segment on the recent SCOTUS decision granting sweeping immunity protections to former President Trump and additional commentary on Joe Biden’s debate performance. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
During this nearly hour-long interview with YouTuber and former Daily Wire contributor Candace Owens, she and Jimmy cover a range of topics including Christopher Cuomo’s about-face on Ivermectin, her recent combative appearance with British talk show host Piers Morgan and the fading relevance of traditional “left” and “right” labels. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
CNN host Kasie Hunt abruptly terminated a live interview with Donald Trump’s spokesperson Karoline Leavitt on Monday after Leavitt began to criticize the two journalists whom the network chose to moderate the much anticipated upcoming debate between the former president and Joe Biden. Hunt had brought up the topic of Trump and his surrogates criticizing moderators but then refused to let Leavitt address the question. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why they think this was a setup and whether it’s a good debating tactic for Trump to target the moderators. Plus segments on Justice Alito lighting into his fellow Justices for punting on a key censorship case and recalling how commentators Cenk Uygur, Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti smeared and laughed at Julian Assange while the U.S. government was pursuing criminal charges against the Wikileaks founder. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden and Barack Obama!
In a last-ditch effort to get out the vote for incumbent U.S. Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) and avoid an upset in the hotly contested Democratic primary in New York’s 16th Congressional District on Tuesday, June 25, leftist political heavyweights U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) came out in support of Bowman at a rally in New York on Saturday. Unfortunately for them, their “star power” has waned to the point where turnout was embarrassingly low. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how the rally turnout would have been even worse if not for the pro-Palestinian protesters who came to express their displeasure with Bernie, Bowman and AOC over Biden’s Israel support. Plus segments on Massachusetts distributing migrant arrivals around the state to various motels in small towns and Trump prosecutor Nathan Wade’s DISASTROUS interview on Comedy Central. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from “Hillary Supporter!”
Have you heard? Funds appropriated to help fund the Ukraine war have somehow wound up in the hands of a mining company extracting cobalt in Idaho. In fact, farmers’ water supplies are also being restricted by the government and redirected to the cobalt mining efforts. It’s all about renewable energy and ending our dependence on fossil fuels, so no complaining when there’s no food. Jimmy discusses the sham of renewable energy and the lie that we will ever stop burning fossil fuels. Plus segments on the establishment ramping up bird flu hysteria and why Democrats have stopped saying “my body, my choice.” Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from George Clooney and Joe Biden!
At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the United States military launched a secret campaign to counter what it perceived as China’s growing influence in the Philippines, a nation hit especially hard by the deadly virus, an investigation by the Reuters news agency has found. Through phony internet accounts meant to impersonate Filipinos, the military’s propaganda efforts morphed into an anti-vaccination campaign, Reuters reported in a story released on Friday. Social media posts decried the quality of face masks, test kits and the first vaccine that would become available in the Philippines – China’s Sinovac inoculation. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how the U.S. government was actually the biggest spreader of vaccine misinformation during the pandemic. Plus segments on the FBI’s efforts to purge the bureau of Trump supporters and a recent study showing that fast food is bad for fetuses. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
The state of Kansas has filed a lawsuit against pharmaceutical company Pfizer, Inc. for alleged consumer protection violations related to the company's manufacturing of the COVID-19 vaccine, saying the company marketed the shot as "safe" even though it "knew" the vaccine was connected to "serious adverse events." "Pfizer misled the public that it had a ‘safe and effective’ COVID-19 vaccine," the 69-page lawsuit filed Monday in the District Court of Thomas County alleges. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the possible repercussions Big Pharma is facing over massive duplicity about vaccine effectiveness. Plus segments on how Haiti’s Jimmy “Barbecue” Cherizier is uniting the Caribbean nation’s rival gangs to fight the oligarchy and the end of the feud between Disney and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Dan Cohen!
Investigative journalist Ben Swann has compiled substantial evidence demonstrating that the Israeli government was aware well in advance that Hamas was planning the October 7th attacks. Not only did Egypt warn Israel and the IDF had collected their own intelligence, but Hamas was staging obvious military exercises leading up to the fateful date. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Swann about why the Netanyahu government might have allowed this attack to take place. Plus segments on CNN writer Oliver Darcy’s desperate but failed attempts to get Tucker Carlson’s tour canceled and South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham’s admission that the Ukraine War is all about securing Ukraine’s trillions of dollars in resources for the US & NATO and depriving China and Russia.
The Washington Post recently ran a hit piece on The Grayzone, their second this year, falsely alleging that the publication gets funding from Iran and Russia. The claim was retracted, but not before countless empire apologists and hacks in the mainstream media ran with the story and spread the smear campaign. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal about how mainstream sources like the Post are the actual purveyors of the most misinformation. Plus segments on Rachel Maddow’s fevered ravings about how Trump is out to get her and Kevin Spacey’s claims that he had no idea who Jeffrey Epstein was despite flying on his planes.
Bill Maher is no fan of Palestinians, of that there’s little doubt. But his frenzied Zionist leanings have escalated recently to the point where he’s now accusing all Palestinians of being pedophiles. And despite the ongoing genocide in Gaza, or maybe because of it, Maher argues that Israel is a lot “like us” in the United States. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how it’s actually Israel’s stated policy to give haven to and protect Jewish pedophiles from prosecution. Plus segments including Jackson Hinkle’s take on the right wing’s sweeping victories in European elections, Neil Oliver on Chris Cuomo’s abject failure to take any responsibility for spreading COVID misinformation and a live show conversation with Kurt, Stef Zamorano, Jeff Dye and Sam Tripoli about retired General Mark Milley’s comments that war crimes are OK as long as they’re done quickly.
Scottish archaeologist and commentator appeared as a guest on The Jimmy Dore show to discuss a range of topics, from the establishment’s pandemic lies to the Ukraine war and Gaza to the World Economic Forum, and offered his theory about how elites sense they are losing their grasp on the public narrative and feel compelled to try to terrify the populace into acquiescence to mass surveillance. Oliver also gives Jimmy his take on the new Scottish “hate speech” law and whether its purpose is to protect vulnerable members of the population or to silence certain voices and stifle criticism of the existing power structure. Plus a segment with Scott Ritter about US and NATO plans to rapidly deploy troops to the front lines in the war between Russia and Ukraine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Anthony Fauci!
Former Marine Intelligence Officer and UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter was at JFK airport, prepared to fly to St. Petersburg, Russia for a major conference when customs agents, at the behest of the State Department, seized Ritter’s passport and refused to allow him to board the plane. Jimmy speaks with Ritter about what happened and why he thinks the State Department has targeted him to prevent him from making this particular trip to Russia. Plus segments on Fauci being confronted during a Congressional hearing about his COVID lies and the mainstream media finally coming around to covering excess deaths from the vaccine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Chris Cuomo Completely Wrecked In Covid Debate w/ Dave Smith! The highly anticipated debate on Patrick Bet-David’s show between libertarian comedian Dave Smith and former CNN newsman Chris Cuomo has taken place, and the expected fireworks absolutely materialized. Specifically, Cuomo insisted that he had not participated in the smearing of Ivermectin as “horse dewormer” despite Smith’s insistence that he had, allegations backed up by numerous piece of video showing Cuomo doing just that. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the shamelessness with which Cuomo lies in the face of video evidence of his own words. Plus segments on Joe Biden issuing an executive order to adopt a border policy remarkably similar to Donald Trump’s and Anthony Fauci being confronted by Marjorie Taylor Greene with his own duplicity in passing off social distancing and masking as science-based. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from George Clooney and Brad Pitt!
During a recent episode of Howie Mandel’s podcast, fellow Jewish comedian Ari Shaffir dropped some truth bombs about the propaganda and brainwashing that’s gone on to persuade Jews in the United States that they’re not safe. Mandel, despite admitting that he never leaves the house, is flabbergasted to hear a fellow Jew say he feels perfectly safe in the U.S. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Howie Mandel’s cluelessness and whether antisemitism is a non-issue in America. Plus segments on how Bill and Hillary Clinton committed very similar crimes to Donald Trump but were NOT prosecuted and the dearth of anti-authoritarian, iconoclastic comedians today. Also featuring Dave Smith, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Actor Robert De Niro is not handling the Donald Trump trial well. De Niro is among Hollywood’s most prominent Trump critics, as well as one of the least articulate. But recently, outside the courthouse where Trump’s trial is taking place in lower Manhattan, the Academy Award winner got involved in a shouting match with Trump supporters and then was drowned out during a press conference by shouts of “Fuck you!” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the elderly De Niro’s final act as a political windbag who’s rapidly losing his marbles. Plus segments on Jimmy’s debate prep offerings for libertarian comic Dave Smith, the recent hilarious bickering between Zionists during a segment on James Whale Unleashed while the pro-Palestinian guest giggled, and Joe Biden’s latest whopper lies that the mainstream media chooses to ignore. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Libertarians have selected Chase Oliver as their presidential candidate, giving their top spot nod to a gay supporter of mask and vaccine mandates as well as open borders. Libertarian comedian Dave Smith openly accepted the blame for his faction taking the L in this contest. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Dave Smith’s hopes that Oliver will focus on his antiwar messaging during the campaign will likely come to pass. Plus segments on new allegations from the FAA that Boeing is cutting corners on safety in the manufacturing process and MSNBC traveling to Trump’s Bronx rally to discover that many immigrants and people of color actually support Trump over Biden. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
The North Korea run by Kim Jong Un is a brutal dictatorship with no freedom, widespread repression and frequent famine. Yet people in the north rate their lives as happier than their counterparts in the south. Is it possible that we’ve been fed a line of propaganda about the reality of life in North Korea? Jimmy speaks with commentator and Twitch streamer Haz Al-Din about what citizens of North Korea actually experience. Plus a segment on Bill Maher’s latest nonsense proving that he knows absolutely nothing about U.S. foreign policy. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. Plus a phone call from Liam Neeson!
Russian and China released a joint statement calling for a multipolar world order and condemning the instability western hegemony has imposed upon the world.

Plus segments on the two major presidential candidates agreeing to participate in two upcoming debates and Cornel West’s embarrassment when almost no one showed up to his recent rally in Harlem. Also featuring Mike MacRae, Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano! And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Western media depict North Korea as a soulless, oppressive dictatorship led by the buffoonish Kim Jong Un where personal freedom is non-existent and dissent is met with brutal repression. Author Michael Malice talks to Jimmy about the reality of life today in North Korea and where the truth conflicts with Western narratives. Plus a segment featuring an interview with Brianne Dressen, who is suing AstraZeneca after suffering long term health effects from participating in a clinical trial for the COVID vaccine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Vince Vaughn!

Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Joe Biden and Jake Tapper!
Regardless of whether a Democrat or Republican has been in the White House, for decades U.S. foreign policy toward Venezuela has been uniform in its demand for regime change, with virtually no success. Repeated coup attempts, crippling economic sanctions, the arrest of Venezuelan diplomats abroad — nothing has worked. As "Corporate Coup: Venezuela and the End of US Empire" author Anya Parampil explains, the failed Venezuela overthrow efforts are actually providing a blueprint for U.S. efforts to effect regime change in other countries around the globe as well. Plus a segment on the FBI operation to set up Donald Trump over alleged mishandling of classified documents. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Mitt Romney!
There is movement afoot within the international community — meaning the powerful western nations that exert a great deal of control over international affairs — to grant the World Health Organization sweeping new powers to dictate pandemic responses, and even to decide when a pandemic is occurring, around the globe. These are clearly antidemocratic measures that Republicans in the United States senate and a number of Republican state Attorneys General are vowing to fight. Jimmy apeaks with physician Meryl Nass, who has been an instrumental agent of opposition to draconian COVID response in the U.S., about this plan to put the WHO in charge of our lives. Plus a segment on Boeing’s screwup CEO walking away from the company with millions of dollars as punishment. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Agents of Wall Street, the defense industry, Silicon Valley and other powerful interests are working under the radar to persuade municipalities across Latin America to essentially sell off control of vast swaths of public lands for use as carbon credits. The claim is that the land will be protected while also generating income for these communities. Except that, not surprisingly, the powerful interests driving these efforts have far more nefarious reasons for wanting to control Latin American rainforests. Author and investigative journalist Whitney Webb explains to Jimmy the interconnectedness of this carbon offsets power grab with vaccine passports, digital currency, and mass surveillance. Plus segments on the likelihood that a so-called “smart” border wall will add a new and even more invasive wrinkle to the burgeoning security state and New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s insulting comments about black children.
Remember during the days of the COVID vaccine rollout when many media figures, among them CNN’s Chris Cuomo, were shaming the unvaccinated and maligning Ivermectin users for taking “horse medicine?” If so you’re going to be surprised to learn that Cuomo is now suffering from a form of long COVID (or maybe long vaxx?) and he’s treating his condition with — get this — Ivermectin. Jimmy unloads both barrels on the rank hypocrisy the “journalist” Cuomo is exhibiting by refusing to apologize for getting COVID so terribly wrong after shaming other people who got it right. Plus segments on AstraZeneca officially pulling its vaccine from European markets and Bernie Sanders ramping up his criticism of Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu. Also featuring Russell Dobular, Max Blumenthal, Keaton Weiss and Kurt Metzger!
Chris Cuomo used to be among the media’s biggest COVID vaccine pushers, frequently appearing alongside fellow CNN host Don Lemon to excoriate the unvaccinated, insisting they shouldn’t be allowed to go to the grocery store, to sporting events or really participate in any social gatherings. Except now it turns out that Cuomo himself was injured by the vaxx, and he’s singing a very different tune, pledging to get to the bottom of just how harmful these vaccines really were. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the about face from the former CNN host and whether the tide is now turning to the point where other mainstream media representatives can also begin to question the COVID narrative. Plus segments on a recent New York Times piece highlighting the plight of the vaxx injured and an interview with economics professor Richard Wolff about what Marxism really means.
In a bipartisan fashion the United States House of Representatives has passed the “Antisemitism Awareness Act,” a transparent evisceration of the first amendment’s free speech protections. If the bill passes the Senate and is signed by President Biden, virtually all criticism of Israel or Jews will be illegal. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the shocking abandonment of the nation’s core values this bill represents. Plus a segment on the scam dermatologists have been perpetrating against Americans over sun exposure and skin cancer while raking in millions since the 1980s.
Howard Stern has transformed from the over-the-top, say anything shock jock that made him famous in the ‘90s into a bootlicking shill for the establishment. This was never more on display than during the recent interview with Joe Biden, who received a tongue bath from Stern worthy of any MSNBC anchor. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Stern has always been this way or the $400 million he got from Sirius XM turned him into a rank elite apologist. Plus segments on the string of lies Biden spewed during his interview with Stern and Donald Trump’s recent decision to abandon his "America First" agenda to throw his full-throated support behind Israel. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Jeff Bridges, man!
SNL’s Colin Jost hosted this year’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, and after poking mild fun at Joe Biden over his age and slumping poll numbers, concluded the evening by praising the President for his “decency.” Not mentioned — Biden’s long record of racism, support for segregationists, near-constant warmongering and the litany of lies he’s told over the years — he’s just a decent guy! Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Jimmy, Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss and The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal to discuss how the WHCT has turned into a mockery of itself and a tribute to stenography and deference to power rather than journalism. Plus segments on a Zionist false flag shout of “Kill the Jews!” that got campus protesters’ encampment cleared by police and the Biden administration’s desperate efforts to keep the ICC from issuing arrest warrants for Israeli leaders on war crimes charges.
House Speaker Mike Johnson recently traveled to Columbia to add his voice to the chorus of recriminations against pro-Palestinian protesters on campus while also continuing to peddle debunked allegations against Hamas. In response, he got to face recriminations of his own in the form of jeers from the Columbia students chanting “Mike, you suck!” Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss to discuss Johnson’s genocide support. Plus a segment about the disturbing revelations at a Khan Yunis hospital of mass graves holding nearly 400 bodies, some showing signs of torture, and Israel’s attempts to deflect responsibility.
Since its inception Tesla’s much-ballyhooed Cybertruck has faced production woes and manufacturing quality issues. The latest concern: a faulty gas pedal that sticks, resulting in a recall of all Cybertrucks currently on the road. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss to discuss why anyone would have purchased a vehicle plagued by so many problems. Plus segments on MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough effecting a surprise about-face on Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the truth leaking out about why Mehdi Hasan’s MSNBC show was canceled. Also featuring Mischa Paullin!
After much debate, consternation and wheeling and dealing, House Speaker Mike Johnson has navigated a series of bills to provide more than $90 billion in war funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. Republicans were much more likely to oppose the bills, in particular the Ukraine funding, but Johnson pushed the funding through primarily with the help of Democrats. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Jimmy, Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss to discuss whether Democrats will help Johnson retain his speakership if members of the Freedom Caucus move to oust him. Plus segments on the Senate renewing warrantly surveillance to allow the intelligence agencies to continue spying on Americans and Tucker Carlson claiming that those intelligence agencies have the entire Congress terrified about their darkest secrets coming out. Also featuring Mischa Paullin!
Young, handsome, famous and profiled in the New York Times? Life is pretty sweet for Jackson Hinkle, even if the Times profile in question consists of equal parts smear job and puff piece. In fact, the entire article is riddled with innuendo, aspersions and intimations — without any actual evidence — that Hinkle is spreading misinformation and is being paid by nefarious foreign governments. Oh, and he pockets money given to him by supporters online! Imagine! Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Hinkle about the unusual coverage he received care of the New York Times. Plus a segment on the recent Congressional vote to gut Americans’ 4th amendment privacy rights.
Veteran NPR editor Uri Berliner has blown the whistle on how the publicly-funded broadcaster has become an activist organization obsessed with pushing progressive ideals. Berliner argues that NPR has gone from a respected information source to one that can no longer be trusted to honestly cover the news. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why NPR sucks so terribly. Plus segments on comedian Bill Burr’s takedown of the argument that WNBA players should be paid more and GOP Congress members Marjorie Taylor-Greene and Thomas Massie moving to vacate the Speakership of MIke Johnson. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Al Pacino!
Former Iraqi weapons inspector Scott Ritter has emerged as one of the premier critics of American foreign policy, and lately has set his sights on Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza and the recent strikes on Israel from Iran. The strikes were much more successful than the mainstream media is letting on, he tells Jimmy, and shocked Israel with how well they circumvented the much-vaunted Iron Dome defense system. Ritter joins Jimmy to explain just how calamitously Israel’s defenses performed against the Iranian aerial assault and why the outcome is either an ignominious defeat for Israel or a dramatic and globally perilous escalation. Plus a segment on RFK Jr.’s announcement that he was offered the VP spot by the Trump campaign but turned it down. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
Investigative journalist Lee Fang appeared on The Jimmy Dore Show to describe the sprawling constellation of media outlets in Ukraine, organized with substantial funding and direction from the U.S. government, that has supported strong censorship laws and shutdowns of dissident outlets, disseminated disinformation of its own, and sought to silence critics of the war, including Jimmy Dore, Glenn Greenwald and Aaron Maté. American taxpayers are indirectly funding their own censorship to aid the floundering Ukraine war effort, Fang tells Jimmy. Plus a segment on a secret recording of a CIA agent revealing the agency’s targeting of Alex Jones. Also featuring Keaton Weiss, Russell Dobular and Mike MacRae. And phone calls from Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer!
While establishment support for the Israeli assault on Gaza has been nearly unanimous, a few Squad members notwithstanding, additional fissures have recently emerged in that wall of consensus. Specifically, the list of Israel critics has recently added prominent powerful figures including Elizabeth Warren, Nancy Pelosi, Richard Haass and even an advisor to former Bush administration official Condoleezza Rice. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Due Dissidence’s Keaton Weiss and Jimmy Dore to discuss just what might have sparked this recent volte-face from former Israel hard-liners. Plus segments on The Young Turks’ host Cenk Uygur teasing support for RFK Jr. in the upcoming presidential election before calling for “sure winner” Jon Stewart to jump into the race and former Obama administration Defense Secretary Leon Panetta tacitly accusing Israel of war crimes.
Donald Trump has — finally, after much delay — weighed in on the abortion issue. And his position is that he did a great thing by appointing Supreme Court Justices who would overturn Roe v Wade but now the decision about whether to ban abortion, or after what period of gestation to make such bans, should be left to the states. It’s a deeply political stance without much in terms of conviction, and could risk a reaction from his ardent evangelical base. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss discuss Trump’s alleged sentimentality around babies and the “miracle of life.” Plus segments on The Rock refusing to endorse Biden again and Israel’s determined effort to drag the United States into World War III. Also featuring Mischa Paullin!
Popular podcaster Joe Rogan reacted strongly to what he felt was a demonstrably dunderheaded discussion about race by the hosts of The View while speaking with author and journalist Coleman Hughes, “It is the show that people love to hate,” Rogan said. “They get so much hate-watching … and viral clips of them saying ridiculous things. It is a rabies-infested hen house. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss discuss The View's handling of Hughes' perspectives on race and Rogan's assessment of the show. Also featuring segments on Joe Biden's increasing frustration with Benjamin Netanyahu over Gaza and Joe Scarborough's pointed questions to an Israeli spokesman about the Israeli government's past support for Hamas.
Israel killed seven aid workers operating in Gaza, spurring international outrage. The aid workers hailed from Australia, Britain and the US, among other nations, and were driving in vehicles clearly marked as aid trucks and with the approval of the IDF. Now, as a result, other aid organizations are pulling out of Gaza, increasing the likelihood that hundreds of thousands of Palestinians will face starvation in the near future. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss, along with Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, discuss the sheer inhumanity of the Israeli government’s willingness to massacre so many Palestinians. Plus a segment on California’s new $20/hour minimum wage for fast food workers going into effect. Also featuring Mischa Paullin and Mike MacRae. And phone calls from Joe Biden and Liam Neeson!
Since the October 7th Hamas attacks and the subsequent Israeli military assault on Gaza, many prominent “free speech warriors” on the right have exposed themselves as no different from the censorship-crazed “Woke” left they ridicule and excoriate. Most recently Ben Shapiro and Dave Rubin sat down to explain away how it was OK for Shapiro’s Daily Wire to part ways with Candace Owens over the latter’s comments critical of Israel. Guest host Russell Dobular and his Due Dissidence co-host Keaton Weiss discuss this incredible ass-showing from Shapiro and Rubin. Plus segments on Joe Biden being accused of desecrating the Easter holiday by celebrating trans visibility, Israel escalating the conflict in the Middle East by bombing Iran’s embassy in Damascus, Syria, and the Israel Defense Force pulling out of Gaza City’s Al-Shifa Hospital, leaving a trail of destruction and dead civilians in their wake. Also featuring Mischa Paullin!
Jon Stewart returned to the Daily Show with a humorous critique of both Donald Trump and Joe Biden. But his Biden-supporting sh*tlib viewers and friends couldn’t tolerate that, so Jon has had to backtrack, the latest example coming in his segment ripping into Donald Trump for overvaluing his properties when seeking bank loans while undervaluing those same properties for tax purposes. Except as some internet sleuths discovered, Stewart himself vastly undervalued his own NYC home for tax purposes and then sold it for many millions more. Whoops! Plus segments on Joe Biden’s $25 million New York Ciy fundraiser with Bill Clinton and Barack Obama getting interrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters and New York AG Letitia James’ outlandish lies about Donald Trump. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Jake Tapper!
As information comes out about the recent cargo ship bridge disaster in Baltimore, one area of concern relates to the cargo ship company’s track record of silencing whistleblowers who raised concerns about safety issues. In fact, the company illegally required employees to first come to the company with safety concerns before informing federal authorities. Jimmy and Due Dissidence host Russell Dobular discuss the company, Maersk, and what corners might be routinely cut to deliver its shareholders the $51 billion in 2023 revenue. Plus segments on GOP strategist Frank Luntz calling out the stupidity of the political prosecution of Donald Trump and former Daily Wire host Candace Owens being abandoned by her former friends on the right. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from Joe Biden!
Donald Trump got a last-minute reprieve from having to come up with a $454 million bond to appeal his civil fraud judgment as an appellate court reduced the bond to a more manageable $175 million. He will now have ten days to compile funds commensurate with the lesser figure, at which point he will be allowed to proceed with the appeal. Jimmy and Due Dissidence host Keaton Weiss discuss the politically motivated legal attack on Trump and whether the likely outcome will be the precise opposite of what the elites running the prosecution are hoping to accomplish. Plus segments on NBC host Chuck Todd’s freakout over the network’s hiring of Ronna Romney McDaniel and Israeli apologist and alleged free speech absolutist Bari Weiss’s celebration of the Daily Wire’s recent cancellation of Candace Owens. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Since its inception the CIA has been a nefarious operation, overthrowing governments, assassinating foreign leaders, fomenting rebellions and generally immiserating wide swaths of the world in the interests of corporate power and greed. But that’s all over now, at least according to Ana and Cenk of The Young Turks. Today’s CIA is too incompetent to pull any of that sort of stuff off, they say, ignoring what’s going on in, say, Ukraine. Or Syria. Or Haiti. Or Pakistan. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the level of apologetics and self-delusion necessary to believe the CIA is not still involved in all kinds of evil activity around the globe. Plus an interview with Dr. Mary Talley Bowman whose lawsuit successfully compelled the FDA to stop lying on social media about Ivermectin. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Vince Vaughn!
During a recent campaign appearance, Donald Trump said that if he wins in 2024 he will impose a 100% tax on vehicles manufactured in Mexico but that if he fails to defeat Joe Biden, there will be a “bloodbath.” Liberal heads instantly exploded over Trump’s obvious call for political violence, or so they claimed. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Morning Joe Scarborough’s leading the demented charge to indict Trump for using what is a commonplace term — one he himself has often used in the past. Plus segments on MSNBC host Ali Velshi’s shocking segment revealing the depth of AIPAC’s control of the U.S. Congress and an online commentator’s savage takedown of grifter Shaun King. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!
There's more to the proposed TikTok ban currently being considered in Congress than merely an attempt to silence a social media platform elite interests can't control. As Jimmy discusses with Dr. Robert Malone, Congressman Thomas Massie has exposed that the legislation will be far-reaching, and allow the government to eliminate any website or even internet hosting service. This is why Massie describes the bill as a "Trojan Horse" for mass online government censorship. Plus a segment on the co-optation of medical journals by Big Pharma and Big Money. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Chuck Schumer!
After losing his CNN hosting gig, Don Lemon was supposed to enjoy a soft landing at X/Twitter, where he was given the opportunity to host a whole new show. But that didn’t happen after a tense interview with Elon Musk during which Lemon applauded the X CEO for promoting free speech by adding Lemon’s show but criticized him for NOT censoring what Lemon termed “hate speech.” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why it’s a bad idea for tech industry billionaires to decide what speech should and should not be allowed. Plus segments on the January 6 committee withholding evidence exonerating Trump and rocker Neil Young coming crawling back to Spotify. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Mike MacRae and Dr. Robert Malone. And a phone call from Al Pacino!
Online commentator Ben Shapiro is NOT a fan of Social Security. In fact, he believes that the concept of retirement itself is outlandish, and people should continue working as long as they are physically capable of doing so. And they certainly should not begin getting payouts from the government at age 65, he says. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Shapiro not only gets the retirement age in the United States wrong (it’s 67), but that he is clearly so cloistered in his elitist, professional managerial class bubble that he has no conception of what it’s like for people who do actual physical labor to work well into their elder years. Plus segments about the recent suspicious “suicide” of Boeing whistleblower John Barnett and Candace Owens’ recent schooling of Chris Cuomo over the former CNN host’s Putin Derangement Syndrome. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Due Dissidence’s Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss.
In case you’re unaware that Robert DeNiro hates Donald Trump, the Academy Award-winning actor went on Bill Maher’s show to explain that Trump is really bad and that another Trump presidency would represent a “nightmare.” Yet as Maher points out, Trump is winning in polls and gaining — a reality that DeNiro has no answer for. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the way our media platforms the least-informed like DeNiro to talk about Trump even though he can’t even explain why he hates Trump so much. Plus segments on Krystal Ball and Ryan Grim on Breaking Points going all-in on supporting Joe Biden and Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff’s victory speech being disrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters.
Joe Biden delivered his much-anticipated State of the Union address, and not surprisingly the lies, duplicity, warmongering and pure service to the ruling class were all on display. Biden even opened to bipartisan applause in calling for pushing the pointless, horrific Ukraine War as a means of “deterring” Putin. And the rest was no better. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how little Biden addressed actual problems being faced by the vast majority of Americans. Plus segments on the New York Times’ phony “leak” about the CIA and Ukraine, and MSNBC’s hosts mocking voters who care about immigration.
As the New York Times “reporting” on allegations of widespread sexual violence during Hamas’ October 7th attacks falls apart, The Intercept is taking credit for exposing The Times. One problem? As The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal explains, The Intercept repeated the same allegations, and then later ripped off reporting exposing the Times from The Grayzone and other outlets. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Blumenthal about how The Intercept — and Democracy Now — operate as intermediaries between truly independent media and traditional corporate media. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And phone calls from Joe Biden and Hillary Supporter!
Political pundits Thomas Schiller and Paul Waldman recently appeared on MSNBC with Mike Brzezinski to explain what a threat to democracy is posed by rural voters. These Trump supporters are racists, misogynists, anti-immigrant and violent, the pundits argue, and need to be dealt with. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Schiller and Waldman undermine their own argument by identifying the pain rural America has experienced and that Trump has exploited. Plus segments on the January 6th journalist recently arrested by the FBI and Jon Stewart’s efforts to “both sides” the Israel-Hamas conflict. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Due Dissonance hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss!
Dr. Thomas Seyfried has been researching cancer treatment for decades, and he says the underlying theory for how we treat cancer — based on the premise that cancer is a genetic disorder — is all wrong. Instead, cancer is a mitochondrial disorder that is much more effectively treated by starving the cancer cells of the specific nutrients that they need to survive and grow. Jimmy talks to Dr. Seyfried about the history of cancer treatment, how his research led to his conclusions and all the problems underlying our traditional approach to cancer treatment. Plus a segment on Boris Johnson demanding $1 million before granting an interview to Tucker Carlson.
Former Democratic Congressional candidate Nina Turner recently appeared on CNN with Anderson Cooper, and as soon as she tried to bring up the devastation wrought on the Palestinians Cooper and the other panelists fought over who got to interrupt her more immediately. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Cooper’s desperate efforts to talk about the politics of Biden’s support for genocide without discussing the actual slaughter underway in Gaza. Plus segments on Michigan Democratic voters demanding a change in Middle East policy in exchange for their votes, a UN expert’s insistence that Israel is unequivocally committing genocide, Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico’s announcement of an investigation into the COVID vaccines and former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss’s discovery that banks run the world. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus phone calls from Joe Biden and Al Pacino!
Washington Post reporter Taylor Lorenz sat down with the online influencer who goes by “Libs of TikTok” for a confrontational discussion about using images of explicit sex as an educational tool in elementary schools and a range of other topics. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss just how poorly Lorenz comes across during this unbelievable conversation. Plus segments on the New York Times’ feverish backpedaling after hiring a non-journalist and former Israeli intelligence agent to pen a lie-filled front page story about alleged Hamas rapes during the October 7th attacks and an Alaska Airlines’ flight attendant’s recent invasion of Jimmy’s privacy on a flight home from Seattle.
During a recent Daily Show broadcast, Jon Stewart criticized Tucker Carlson for favorably comparing Russian subway stations’ cleanliness to what one typically sees in American cities, in particular New York.

Plus segments on MSNBC’s craven lies to protect Joe Biden and ESPN host Stephen Smith going off on New York City’s plans to give $53 million to migrants in the city.
A New York court has ruled that Donald Trump must pay a $355 million fine over allegations that he committed real estate fraud. As Shark Tank's Kevin O'Leary pointed out during a CNN spot, however, the laws that Trump allegedly broke are routinely flouted by every developer in New York City, which is why the state’s governor, Kathy Hochul, felt compelled to reassure business interests that only Trump would be targeted with this extraordinary type of prosecution. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how New York is exhibiting all the corrupt traits of a third world country. Plus segments on Stephen Colbert’s meltdown over the multiple criminal and civil cases Donald Trump is facing, Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters slapping down of U2 frontman Bono over the latter’s pushing of pro-war propaganda couched in peace-loving language and Trump’s recent comments suggesting as President he would renew efforts to steal Venezuela’s oil.

In this interview with Jimmy Dore Dr. Hulsey reveals the scientific basis that led him to conclude that the impact of the planes hitting the twin towers and any fires that were raging through the building could NOT have caused WTC 7 to collapse into its own footprint. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Dr. Hulsey about his research, how he was persuaded to undertake this project and what kind of response his evidence-based conclusions have elicited from the media.
Ever since the Special Counsel report came out, determining that Joe Biden could not be charged with criminal mishandling of classified documents because his memory is shot and no jury would convict, the liberal media class has closed ranks to defend the President and insist that he’s as sharp and incisive as ever, and allegations suggesting otherwise are all a right-wing plot. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how so many media liberals are repeating the same talking points to defend Biden, often comically so. Plus segments on Tucker Carlson explaining his reasoning for wanting to interview Vladimir Putin and a Connecticut fertility doctor who impregnated dozens of patients using his own sperm.
Bill Maher has progressed in his delusion and wealth to the point where he is now laughably out of touch with the concerns of everyday Americans. During a recent episode of his show he argued that the United States “won” the pandemic by emerging with a strong economy, seemingly oblivious to the serious economic struggles faced by so many in lower tax brackets. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how disappointing Maher’s commentary has become the richer he’s grown. Plus a segment on how the Senate is actively pursuing the Deep State agenda to prevent a future President Trump from cutting off war funds for Ukraine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
Since the release of the Special Council report explaining that Joe Biden should not be prosecuted because of his failing mental faculties, liberals have made great pains to defend Biden and pretend that his obvious decline is not, well, obvious. MSNBC hosts Chris Hayes and Rachel Maddow did their part, with Maddow in particular explaining that Biden couldn’t be losing his perspicacity because “he rides a bike.” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss with Dr. Drew Pinsky these laughable attempts to persuade the American public not to believe their own eyes and ears. Plus segments on new revelations that red meat is NOT bad for you after all and ESPN host Steven Smith going off on New York City’s plans to hand out $53 million in prepaid cards to migrants.
In declaring that charges will not be brought against Joe Biden in the mishandling classified materials case, the U.S. Justice Department explained that Biden is a “well-meaning, elderly man with poor memory” and as a result would be too sympathetic to a jury to be prosecuted. Biden did himself no favors by fumbling over his words in a press conference intended to deny the allegations. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Due Dissidence’s Keaton Weiss and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger to discuss whether Democrats may be actively trying to ease Biden out and select a new 2024 nominee. Plus segments on Vladimir Putin telling Tucker Carlson the United States is screwing itself over with Russian sanctions and the lies peddled by the Israeli government about the United Nations organization providing relief in Gaza.

Former Democratic Congressman and two time presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich appeared on The Jimmy Dore Show for a wide-ranging interview about his recently announced candidacy as an independent for a U.S. House seat in Ohio, the danger of the United States pursuing endless wars, the need to bring Americans together and how he feels uniquely positioned to operate as an independent in a nearly evenly divided House of Representatives. Jimmy is joined by Due Dissidence’s Russell Dobular and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger in conversation with the self-described candidate of peace.
Former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters has been a longtime supporter of the Palestinian people, as well as a harsh critic of fascism. But now that Gaza is under attack Waters is being criticized as an antisemite — to the extent that his music publisher has severed ties with the aging rocker.

Plus segments on journalist James O’Keefe’s latest undercover exposé, President Biden’s dustup with Texas Governor Greg Abbott over the border and the announcement that Biden is finally planning to visit the site of the train derailment and chemical explosion in East Palestine, Ohio.

Much of the western world is in the throes of a massive healthcare crisis and the proof is that despite the end of the pandemic, excess deaths and disabilities remain at shockingly high rates, in particular among the young.

A bill working its way through the Kentucky legislature would decriminalize the use of deadly force by homeowners against homeless people who had camped out on their land and refused to leave. The bill also includes myriad addtional punitive measures that will ensure sending more Kentuckians to prison for longer terms — all at the taxpayers’ expense, of course. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the bill and why it may be in the establishment’s best interest to require the citizenry to address the homelessness crisis themselves rather than deal with it legislatively. Plus a segment on the Biden administration’s disastrous decision to bomb the Houthis in Yemen that’s left the White House painted into a corner with few options on how to proceed to end the Red Sea blockade.

Donald Trump won the Iowa GOP primary in convincing fashion, but MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow insisted her network would not show Trump’s victory speech because — get this — MSNBC doesn’t air knowing untruths. Really! But it turns out that Maddow herself has uttered more than a few whoppers on air. Guest host Russell Dobular is joined by Due Dissidence’s Keaton Weiss and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger to discuss Maddow’s illustrious history of mistruth.

Also featuring Mischa Paulin and Kurt Metzger!

When Zionist Washington Post reporter Elizabeth Dwoskin was planning a hit piece on dissident media outlets like The Grayzone for failing to toe the Israeli narrative line, what she wasn’t expecting was a flaying from The Grayzone reporters Max Blumenthal and Aaron Maté. But that’s just what she got when the two began inquiring why the Post would assign a devout Zionist who promotes Israeli propaganda to cover the conflict with Hamas Guest host Russell Dobular, along with Due Dissidence’s Keaton Weiss and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, talk to Blumenthal about the confrontation and how best to respond to corporate media narrative enforcement.

Joy Behar and her fellow “The View” co-hosts used to decry as “misinformation” the idea that COVID vaccines didn’t prevent infection of transmission and shouted down a guest who suggested as much. But now Joy Behar is admitting that despite being fully boosted, she still got COVID.

Plus a segment about the Biden administration's humiliation after key European allies pulled out of an agreement to defend Israeli ships in the Red Sea. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Due Dissidence hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss!

Plus segments on Russell Brand exposing Bill Gates efforts to plunder Africa masquerading as philanthropy and CNN's Michael Smerconish admitting that Jack Smith's prosecution of Donald Trump is political. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
It’s the eternal question when it comes to Bill Maher and foreign policy: is he really this dumb or just pretending? The latest discussion of the Ukraine War on his show did nothing to solve the debate as Bill brought on two uber-establishment shills from the mainstream media to regurgitate long-ago exhausted talking points about having to deter Russian aggression and not appeasing power-mad dictators. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Due Dissidence host Russell Dobular about Bill Maher’s thickness and why he’ll never bring on guests like Glenn Greenwald and Thomas Frank again.

Jen Psaki has made the successful transition from lying at the behest of the Biden administration’s corporate owners to lying at the behest of MSNBC’s corporate masters. And as part of that job she’s now trying to tell Americans that Joe Biden will uphold the first amendment value of a free press that Trump won’t — all while Biden insists on forcing Julian Assange to rot away in a British prison. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how a Democratic Party mouthpiece like Psaki can presume to lecture anyone else about duplicity and suppression of the press. Plus segments on prominent Zionist Rabbi Schmuley hawking sex products, Israeli newspaper Haaretz debunking Israeli lies about Hamas atrocities and Fox host Greg Gutfeld coming to the defense of his former colleague Tucker Carlson.
For pundits like Krystal Ball and Ryan Grim, Force the Vote is the issue that keeps on giving — giving them heartburn, that is. Recently, while discussing Grim’s new book about The Squad, the two admit they don’t like talking about Force the Vote but then Grim goes on to pretend that Congressional progressives have learned from the experience how to wield power as a minority bloc. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss just how much bullshit Grim and Ball are trying to spread pretending that the Squad would ever challenge the power centers of the Democratic Party and that Force the Vote didn’t expose them as access journalists.

At the recent pro-Israel rally in Washington DC, House Speaker Mike Johnson described as “outrageous” any calls for a ceasefire in Gaza — despite the fact that a solid majority of Americans support a ceasefire. Instead Johnson, along with other politicians on stage with him like Jody Ernst and Hakeem Jeffries, insisted that the killings, the massacres, the genocide continue unabated. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to System Update host Glenn Greenwald about the consensus in both parties that many more civilians in Gaza must die.

MMA fighter Jake Shields and political commentator Jackson Hinkle have both found themselves running afoul of the censors at Twitter, who have demonetized the two over their posted messages about the conflict in Gaza. Shields has learned, in fact, that he was “ghost banned” following a meeting of Twitter executives during which they discussed ways to reduce both Shields and Hinkle’s prominence on the site. Jimmy and his co-hosting duo of The Convo Couch’s Craig Jardula and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Hinkle and Shields about why Elon Musk’s free speech platform would seek to block Twitter users from hearing their perspectives.

I love Israel.” He then went on to state that if he’s elected president again he will pursue “vengeance” against Hamas in response to the group’s October 7 attacks inside Israel. Jimmy, along with The Convo Couch host Craig Jardula and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, discusses how Trump is declaring himself as much of a bloodthirsty warmonger marching us into a global conflict as his fellow Republican candidates or Joe Biden. Plus a segment on CNN's Wolf Blitzer, a reliably pro-Israel cheerleader for war, questioning the Israeli military's cavalier approach to civilian casualties. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Andrew Cuomo!
In recent years certain high profile avatars of the right have begun self-identifying as “free speech warriors,” opposing efforts to deny campus speaking opportunities to other right-wingers, calling out social media platforms for banning controversial accounts and raling against so-called “cancel culture.” But in light of the recent Hamas attacks, Gaza bombardment and subsequent protests in favor of Palestinian rights, previous free speech absolutists like Ben Shapiro, Dave Rubin and Laura Loomer are calling for the cancelling of individuals whose speech they disagree with. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss, yet again, how supporting free speech means supporting the rights of people whose speech you abhor. Plus segments on why the Israeli military is upset about hostages being released and Jon Stewart abandoning his Apple TV show over alleged disagreements over content with Apple executives. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
Though most Israeli politicians and leaders have the political savvy not to say it in public, few would question that Israel’s ultimate objective is to drive Palestinians out of the West Bank and Gaza, leaving all of Israel just to Israelis.

Guest host Craig Jardula and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to independent journalist and filmmaker Dan Cohen about the open secret of Palestinian expulsion. Plus a segment on Americans' woeful ignorance of basic information about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano!

Plus a segment on the Israeli government's plans to deprive Gaza's 1 million children of basic essentials like food, water and medicine. Also featuring Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden, Volodymyr Zelensky and Benjamin Netanyahu, as well as Andrew Cuomo and David Axelrod!
Well, he did it. As threatened, GOP Congressman Matt Gaetz has called to “vacate” the Speaker’s chair and successfully ousted Kevin McCarthy. Establishment defenders on both sides of the political spectrum are decrying the move and the “chaos” that has overtaken the GOP House caucus. Meanwhile, leftists who supported the #ForceTheVote movement are throwing up their hands and wondering why The Squad never wielded their power in similar fashion against the House Democratic leadership. Jimmy and guests Craig Jardula and Kurt Metzger discuss Gaetz’s willingness to embrace the wrath of his own's party's establishment. Plus a segment on the sheer inability of Russiagating Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers Bill Maher and Sam Harris to confront their own demonstrably wrong positions. Also featuring Mike MacRae!

On Tuesday the United Nations Security Council welcomed a very surprising speaker — comedian and political commentator Jimmy Dore!

Bad Faith Podcast host Briahna Joy Gray recently sat down with Breaking Points host Krystal Ball and her husband to discuss the question that has been roiling the online left for a decade or longer — are Democrats really any better than Republicans?

Guest host Craig “Pasta” Jardula and The Miserable Liberal Stef Zamorano discuss Kyle and Krystal’s heel turn to MSNBC Lite. Plus a segment hosted by Jimmy with Craig "Pasta" Jardula and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger talking about California Governor Gavin Newsom's recent admission that he got COVID all wrong. Also featuring Mike MacRae! And phone calls from President Biden and Al Pacino!
If Dr. Cornel West hopes for his Green Party presidential bid to take off, he’s going to have to appeal to a wide swath of the voting public, including disaffected Democrats and Republicans, as well as independents. Whether he can achieve that objective by constantly beating the drums for trans rights and about white supremacy was a key bone of contention during his recent interview with Jimmy Dore. Jimmy argued in favor of an electoral strategy based on a solid foundation of economic justice while Dr. West said he would never stop talking about white supremacy and trans rights.

The devastating fires in Maui will require billions in funds to facilitate the island’s recovery. And while Congress is currently negotiating relief funds for Hawaii, there’s also the pressing need for additional billions in military spending to Ukraine. Which is why the debate over sending money to Hawaii is being tied to twice as much money being sent to Ukraine. Guest host Craig “Pasta” Jardula, along with Jimmy Dore and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss reports that FEMA is running out of money just when Hawaii is in desperate need. Plus segments on the U.S.'s involvement in the recent ouster of Pakistani leader Imran Khan and Alex Jones' prediction about the imminent return of COVID restrictions.

Now that the pharmaceutical industry has made its hundreds of billions from vaccines, and despite an all out smear campaign the agency itself participated in, the Food & Drug Administration has approved the drug Ivermectin as a treatment for COVID. So it turns out that, according to the FDA, it’s OK even if you’re not a horse for you to take Ivermectin to treat your COVID. That’s what you call a win-whinny. Guest host Craig “Pasta” Jardula, along with Jimmy Dore and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why Ivermectin had to be so severely demonized during the early days of the pandemic but now can be approved in such a cavalier fashion.

And a phone call from Alec Baldwin!
Hunter Biden’s longtime business partner Devon Archer recently testified to Congress behind closed doors about international deals he and Hunter were involved in and whether Joe Biden had any participation.

Jimmy and The Convo Couch host Craig Jardula discuss the weight of evidence suggesting President Biden helped and benefited from his son’s influence peddling schemes. Plus segments about a new poll showing a majority of Americans no longer support Ukraine War funding and out-of-touch elitist Joy Behar wondering why Joe Biden isn't more popular. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Andrew Cuomo and Joe Biden!
Donald Trump has been indicted yet again, and this time it’s not about secret payments to a porn star or mishandling of classified documents. No, this indictment is over Trump’s alleged involvement in fomenting the January 6 “insurrection” and other various efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the indictment and whether the various legal campaigns against Trump are collectively oriented at ensuring he can’t run again in 2024. Plus a segment with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. talking about what's REALLY destroying the middle class in America. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from Vince Vaughn!
There’s much debate on the left as to how much better, if at all, Democrats are compared with Republicans. Kyle Kulinski’s not engaging with that debate, however, as he forcefully recently asserted that black people tend to vote blue because Democrats are “one trillion times better” than Republicans. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Revolutionary Blackout Network’s Nick Cruse about Kulinski’s assessment and why he may be overstating the case by a factor of a trillion.

Reason, the magazine directed at libertarians, recently published a video titled “Why Are So Many Libertarians Suddenly Fond of RFK Jr.?” In the video Reason contributor Liz Wolfe wildly smears RFK Jr. as – predictably enough – anti-vaxx while insisting the Democratic presidential candidate is wrong about wanting to protect Social Security and Medicare and take on the oligarchy and the deep state. As Jimmy points out, Wolfe repeatedly uses misleadingly edited videos, announces RFK is wrong without citing how or why and generally doesn’t seem to understand libertarianism, not to mention how to make a cogent, coherent argument. Plus a segment on the blatant duplicity Biden and Democrats are engaging in to try to persuade young people to vote for Democrats over a student debt relief plan they have no intention of following through on. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from President Joe Biden and Jake Tapper!
Elon Musk and Joe Rogan touched off a firestorm over the weekend as they pushed prominent vaccine scientist Dr. Peter Hotez to debate Democratic candidate and noted vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., on Rogan's popular podcast. Rogan offered Dr. Hotez $100,000 to the charity of his choice if he agreed to debate Kennedy on Rogan's program after Hotez slammed a recent interview Kennedy had on Rogan's program as "awful" and "nonsense,” but Hotez refused, saying he didn’t want to participate in an exchange that would get turned into “the Jerry Springer show.” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Dr. Hotez’s reasons for refusing and what might happen if this debate did take place. Plus a segment on the latest undercover investigation from former Project Veritas CEO James O’Keefe, this time revealing the disturbing truth about global investment firm BlackRock. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from President Joe Biden and Liam Neeson!
Progressive activist and academic Cornel West grabbed headlines recently when he announced he would be running for President under the People’s Party banner. Now West has had a change of heart and will instead be running for the nomination of the Green Party. And, as if on cue, he is already being roundly excoriated by Democrats as a secret right-winger who will throw the election to Donald Trump. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger speak with journalist and author Chris Hedges, who helped persuade West to make the switch, about what a Cornel West presidential campaign could accomplish.

And phone calls from Alec Baldwin and President Joe Biden!
Writer, actor, director and standup comedian Mike Binder recently penned an article asking the rhetorical question: why has the standup industry been so thoroughly de-fanged in recent years to become so thoroughly pro-establishment? Gone is the bravery of Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor and George Carlin, he says, as comedic voices of dissent today have become the exception and can be numbered on one hand. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Binder about the state of comedy, and the few truth-tellers who have been willing to push back against the COVID narrative in particular. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Chris Christie and Vince Vaughn!
Leslie Aun, VP of Communications and Public Engagement for the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) recently called Max Blumenthal and Alex Rubenstein of The Grayzone to dispute their characterization of the NED as a “CIA cutout,” although she admitted she didn’t know what the term “CIA cutout” means. In response the two journalists educated Aun about her organization’s sordid history and many of the ways the NED has served the interests of empire but with the sheen of “democracy” to protect its image. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Max about the surreal conversation and whether he felt Aun was genuinely ignorant of the subject matter. Plus a segment on a recent Israeli Freedom of Information Act request revealing that there have been zero Israeli deaths from COVID among healthy Israelis under 50.

The notorious Ukrainian “kill list” that identified the Zelensky regime’s opponents like Aaron Maté, Scott Ritter, Roger Waters and even Henry Kissinger has added a new name: Jimmy Dore. The list is ostensibly maintained by an independent group, but an investigation into funding reveals that the Ukrainian government is behind the effort, as well as U.S. and NATO cutouts. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger speak with The Grayzone reporter Max Blumenthal about the individuals named on the list who have been assassinated and what being added means for Jimmy. Plus segments on a new poll showing a majority of Americans do not believe in Russiagate but do believe the intelligence agencies are interfering in domestic elections. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Harrison Ford and Joe Biden!
John Durham has issued his report on the Russiagate investigation, and the results are scathing, despite what many mainstream media outlets would have you believe. Durham found no evidence supporting allegations of collusion between Donald Trump and Russia, but rather that the FBI broke the law in pursuing the case and that the entire Russia-Trump connection was ginned up by the Clinton campaign in 2016. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Pushback host Aaron Maté about the ongoing Russiagate hoax that won’t die no matter how many times and ways it’s debunked. Plus a segment on the attacks from MSNBC's Joy Reid and The View's Sunny Hostin on Anderson Cooper over the CNN Trump Town Hall. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Andrew Cuomo!
Donald Trump has lost the civil case of sexual assault brought against him by E. Jean Carroll, and will now have to pay her $5 million, pending appeal. But did you know that this case could only be brought thanks to a recent amendment to New York statutes pushed by Democrats and Carroll herself and without this legislative “fix” the statute of limitations for the lawsuit would have run out? Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether this rape case is more about preventing Trump from running in 2024 than the triumph of justice. Plus a segment featuring U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy’s recent appearance on CNN with Erin Burnett where he perpetuated already-debunked lies about mask effectiveness in fighting COVID. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Jake Tapper and the duo of Chuck Schumer and President Joe Biden!
The recent dust-up between MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan and Twitter Files journalist Matt Taibbi has mushroomed to the point where elected officials are now calling for Taibbi’s arrest for allegedly lying under oath during his recent Congressional testimony. Author and academic Norman Finkelstein labels Hasan a “sewer rat” for misrepresenting the extent of Taibbi’s ostensible “errors” in the Twitter Files and challenges him to correct the record. Guest host Aaron Maté speaks with Finkelstein about Hasan’s reporting on the Twitter Files as well as his contribution to labeling the Labour Party’s Jeremy Corbyn an antisemite. Plus a segment dedicated to the demise of hipster empire apologist media outlet Vice News. Also featuring Mischa Paullin, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from President Joe Biden!
Top-rated Fox News host Tucker Carlson has been abruptly fired from his choice primetime show on the cable network. Carlson has consistently been the only voice on cable news calling out the war machine, criticizing his fellow media commentators for doing advertisers’ bidding and rejecting claims from Big Pharma. And now he’s gone! Guest host Aaron Maté and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to special guest Jimmy Dore about the silencing of Tucker Carlson. Plus a segment dedicated to the passing of singing legend and civil rights hero Harry Belafonte. Also featuring Mischa Paullin and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Jake Tapper and President Joe Biden!
JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon is being forced to testify in a civil suit about his connection to late financier/sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. As journalist Whitney Webb explains, the sordid ties between not only Epstein and Dimon, but also many of the biggest names in the growth of the financial service sector over the past 40 years, along with the government and organized crime, reveal an unprecedented web of corruption and sleaze. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Webb about the details of this story she’s uncovered in her reporting. Plus a segment with Alexander Mercouris and Alex Christoforou of The Duran on the 200 additional U.S. troops recently deployed to Taiwan. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from Alec Baldwin!
It’s been more than 20 years since the US and its allies invaded Iraq in what is now widely acknowledged was a war crime based on lies. And yet many of the same perpetrators who pushed those lies and the Iraq invasion remain prominent and respected members of the foreign policy establishment as they today push the Ukraine War. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to British politician and talk show host George Galloway about his principled opposition to the Iraq War. Plus segments featuring Galloway discussing Europe's possible "break" with the United States led by France's Emmanuel Macron, and a San Jose Police Union leader who's been charged with trafficking fentanyl.

The “Restrict Act” currently being pushed through Congress with bipartisan support, ostensibly an effort to keep the Chinese government from spying on Americans, will allow the U.S. government to dramatically restrict the websites Americans can visit. In fact, by using a VPN to circumvent restrictions Americans could possibly put themselves at risk of being sentenced to 20 years in prison. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss this draconian effort to monitor Americans’ online lives. Plus a segment with Professor Richard Wolff about the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and what it portends for the U.S. economy's future. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
Jon Stewart recently appeared on TV with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria to insist that Donald Trump be charged with crimes because in the United States even the rich and powerful should face accountability. We either have the rule of law or we don’t, Stewart said, and apparently he believes we actually DO enjoy the rule of law in America. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss all the ways the rule of law does not prevail in the United States. Plus a segment with Pushback host Aaron Maté on his testimony to the United Nations about the OPCW whistleblower scandal in Syria. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae!

In the latest installment of the Twitter Files, journalist Matt Taibbi reveals the far too cozy relationship between a variety of government agencies and Twitter that led the social media platform to censor even information deemed accurate about COVID vaccines if it was determined the information might encourage vaccine hesitancy. In their zealousness Twitter even went so far as to censor jokes that were deemed dangerous or tweets that might hurt Anthony Fauci’s credibility. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the rest of the media’s unwillingness to engage with the dangerous implications of the Twitter Files stories. Plus a segment on the International Criminal Court's sham indictment of Vladimir Putin on war crimes charges. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Jake Tapper!
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is mulling a run for the Presidency and challenging Joe Biden for the Democratic Party nomination. Kennedy admits that the United States no longer has a functioning democracy, and that the Democratic Party is already manipulating the 2024 primaries and refusing to hold debates — all in order to protect Biden. Jimmy talks to Kennedy about the 2024 race and why he believes he can break through despite the party’s rank corruption and win the nomination as an outsider like a 2024 Democratic version of 2016 Donald Trump. Plus a segment on conservative author Betheny Mendel's inability to define "woke" when asked on the "Rising" program. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Vince Vaughn and the duo of Andrew Cuomo and Chuck Schumer!
The East Palestine rail disaster has brought into focus the severity of the dangers posed by the United States’ degrading infrastructure, especially when combined with the monopolistic, neoliberal policies that seek to extract the highest possible profits while pushing overextended workers to their limits and beyond. Railway Workers United General Secretary Ron Kaminkow explains that the time may be ripe for a radical new plan for the nation’s railways. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to Kaminkow about just why the rail transit system in America has become such a shambles and devastating to its workforce. Plus a segment on Fox News host Tucker Carlson's evisceration of the lies told by the House committee investigating the January 6 Capitol "insurrection." Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae.

Tucker Carlson has been the rare media commentator to mention that there is substantial evidence the United States was behind the Nord Stream pipeline bombing. He even brought on Jimmy Dore to talk about it — something that blew the minds of other mainstream media outlets like Mediaite, which published a piece smearing Jimmy as a conspiracy theorist while neglecting to refute a single point he made. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether the Mediaite story was actually written by a sympathetic reporter. Plus segments on actor Sean Penn's unhinged warmongering during a recent appearance on CNN and Dilbert creator Scott Adams' bizarre rant cautioning white people to stay away from black people. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from Liam Neeson!
Unlike virtually everyone else in the mainstream media, Rachel Maddow opted to cover the recent anti-war rally in Washington DC. Except, as the inveterate warmonger and consent manufacturer she is, Maddow spread lie after lie and smeared participants as “pro-Russia” while showing none of the speakers except Tulsi Gabbard, whom she didn’t identify by name while describing her as a "occasional fill-in host for Tucker Carlson." Overall it was a disgusting display and a stark reminder of what a tool for the establishment Maddow is. Guest host Aaron Maté and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger, along with interloping Jimmy Dore, discuss Maddow’s rank dishonesty and knowing mischaracterization of the rally and its participants. Plus a segment on the "boutique" left's determined effort to undermine this anti-war rally and any prospect for uniting with those outside the left to pursue peace. Also featuring Mischa Paullin and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from Joe Biden!
The media’s purpose is to question dominant narratives and challenge authority, but too often today’s corporate media exists simply to regurgitate establishment talking points and run interference for powerful interests. Case in point: Business Insider writer Mia Jankowicz’s recent piece smearing Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh’s story revealing U.S. involvement in sabotaging the Nord Stream pipeline. Jimmy Dore Show guest host Aaron Maté and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how pathetically bought the mainstream media is today. Plus segments on media silence over the Hersh story, the Chinese "spy" balloon and former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's admission that a peace deal over Ukraine was in the works soon after the war began but the United States blocked all negotiations. Also featuring Mischa Paullin and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden!
MSNBC editor and political columnist Zeeshan Aleem recently penned the latest in the virtual cavalcade of pieces we’ve seen of late from Democratic Party apologists warning that “populist” left figures like Glenn Greenwald, Matt Taibbi and Jimmy Dore have been “flirting” with the populist right. Such a movement could funnel leftists into the arms of authoritarians, Aleem argues, as if the Democratic Party today isn’t authoritarian to its core. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the very real dangers this kind of “flirtation” can lead to. Plus a segment on Rachel Maddow's unhinged, ignorant anti-peace position on the war in Ukraine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Vince Vaughn and Mitt Romney!
It’s rare to hear a genuine, full-throated anti-war message on American television, much less on Fox News, but Tucker Carlson’s audience heard that message loud and clear thanks to the latest appearance by Jimmy Dore. Jimmy called out the corruption, the warmongering, the deception and the profiteering as the U.S. military industrial complex and its lackeys in government and media push for war with China. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why Tucker is the only broadcaster open to sharing Jimmy’s anti-war message with his audience. Plus segments on the lunatic Covidian who's likely to replace Anthony Fauci and a Newsweek opinion piece acknowledging that the government and scientific community has been lying about COVID from the start. Also featuring Dan Cohen and Stef Zamorano!
Newly minted House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has begun flexing his muscle, making good on his promise to kick prominent Democrats Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell off of the House Intelligence Committee. And for good measure McCarthy also took the opportunity to smack down a PBS reporter who asked why the two Democrats were being excised from this committee while noted fabulist Republican George Santos was being placed on other committees. Jimmy and Pushback host Aaron Maté discuss the more than legitimate reasons why Schiff has no business anywhere near the Intelligence Committee. Plus segments on a psychopath former Pentagon official in the Obama administration calling for "many more body bags" to bring down Putin and "Dilbert" creator Scott Adams' less-than-contrite apology for being wrong about the COVID vaccine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Vince Vaughn and the duo of Joe Biden and Volodymyr Zelensky!
During a recent Instagram Live chat, New York Congresswoman and “Squad” member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez explained why she and her colleagues refused to “Force the Vote” when Democrats took control of the House in 2021, unlike what the Freedom Caucus did earlier this month. Her response was enlightening, underscoring how AOC has become a complete Democratic Party insider and wholly abandoned the “bring the ruckus” persona that helped sweep her into office as an ostensible threat to the Democratic Party power structure. Jimmy breaks down all the ways AOC unwittingly acknowledges she has betrayed her supporters and become just another lying politician. Plus a segment on astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson embarrassing himself on a podcast with his ignorance about COVID vaccine efficacy. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Steve Kirsch and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Kevin Spacey and the duo of Joe Biden and Andrew Cuomo!
The days of the American empire are numbered, says journalist Chris Hedges, and the evidence is all too clear for anyone who’s studied history. Our rampant militarism abroad combined with neglect of the domestic needs of any but the wealthiest citizens describe a grim future for the United States, he says. And if you think progressives in government might help us avoid that destiny, think again – The Squad and their ilk are merely controlled opposition designed to provide false hope for change. Jimmy and Americans’ comedian Kurt Metzger discuss with Hedges the calamity that elites have wrought in condemning the United States empire to the dustbin of history. Plus a segment on actor Sean Penn's cringe-worthy fawning over Volodymyr Zelensky at the recent Golden Globes. Also featuring Aaron Maté, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
The Squad and their supporters in the liberal online media world who’ve fallen in line behind Biden, Pelosi and Schumer would be happy if everyone forgot about #ForceTheVote. But you know who didn’t forget? The GOP's Freedom Caucus, which is currently using its leverage to extract concessions in exchange for their Speaker vote in exactly the same way many progressives had hoped The Squad would do at this time two years ago. But that didn't happen, and as a result these so-called "progressives" were exposed as go-along, get-along institutionalists who would never challenge the power centers of the Democratic Party. Jimmy and Useful Idiots podcast host Aaron Maté discuss the legacy of #ForceTheVote and what might have been accomplished had House progressives been willing to use their power to move a leftist political agenda forward. Plus a segment hosted by Aaron speaking with The Grayzone's Anya Parampil about the sad end to Juan Guaidó's tenure as the pretend President of Venezuela.
The latest release in the so-called “Twitter Files” information dump has revealed the incredibly close relationship between the United States government and the social media platform as the two worked together (at the government’s insistence) to censor not just misinformation about COVID but also pretty much any information that conflicted with the official state narrative, true or not. Among the many Twitter users to get caught up in this public-private web was Martin Kulldorff, a former professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. Jimmy and Revolutionary Black Network’s Nick Cruse discuss all the ways the government and Twitter conspired to censor users who diverged from the party line on COVID. Plus a segment on the outrageous lies of incoming GOP House Representative George Santos -- as well as increasingly demented Democratic President Joe Biden. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
Scientific American Magazine editor Tanya Lewis has come down with COVID. This came as something of a shock to her since she feels she has been EXTRAORDINARILY cautious for the past three years, masking constantly while out of the house, taking all her vaccines and boosters and generally avoiding any possible exposure whenever possible. Yet she still got it, which means that maybe all those precautions didn’t do her a whole lot of good. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger wonder why a science magazine editor would be so oblivious about the science of COVID. Plus segments on the latest whopper lie to come out of Joe Biden's mouth and the "Twitter Files" revelations about the FBI dictating to Twitter which accounts should be banned and otherwise censored. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Alec Baldwin!
Jennifer Sey was a high-powered executive at the Levi’s corporation with an inside track to become the company’s next CEO. Then the pandemic hit and Sey spoke out against extended school closings. As she became a more prominent spokesperson for the science that suggested kids should be back in schools, she increasingly came under fire from others inside the “progressive” Levi’s corporation and was told she needed to quell her activism. When she refused she was given the opportunity to take a big payday to leave and keep her mouth shut, but she refused. Jimmy talks with Sey about her experience inside what she describes as a corporate “cult” where anyone expressing even the slightest deviation from the accepted narrative about COVID was sharply rejected and marginalized. Plus a segment on the out-of-control Pentagon spending approved by both parties. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
Time Magazine has named Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky its “Person of the Year,” continuing the corporate media practice of promoting the puppet leader of a nation NATO is using to wage a proxy war against Russia. Jimmy and antiwar activist and former CIA analyst Ray McGovern discuss whether Zelensky really deserves an honor that in the past has been bestowed on such luminaries as George W. Bush, Ayatollah Khomeini and Adolf Hitler. Plus a segment on a railroad workers union's calls to pursue electoral options outside of the two-party system. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Harrison Ford and Al Pacino!
Those wily Democrats, they’ve done it again! This time it’s the railroad workers who are bearing the brunt of the Dems’ screw job as Biden, Pelosi and company have stepped into the middle of a labor dispute between rail workers and management and are forcing workers to accept a deal half of them had voted to reject and hand railway owners a major victory. Jimmy and The Convo Couch’s Craig “Pasta” Jardula discuss the Democratic Party’s abject abandonment of the working class and this latest exposure of Joe Biden as no friend of union workers. Plus a segment on White House reporters demands that the Biden administration crack down on free speech online. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Alec Baldwin and Chuck Schumer!
Jon Stewart is a comedy legend who pioneered an entirely new way to deliver scathing but also funny commentary on the news. But now he’s apparently decided to piss away all the credibility he built up by interviewing and giving a virtual tongue bath to war criminals Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice, whom he allows to spew transparently false narratives about the American war machine with nary a peep of disagreement. Jimmy and his panel of Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger and The Grayzone’s Anya Parampil discuss Stewart’s embarrassingly cringe-worthy performance. Plus segments on Canadian comedy troupe Kids In The Hall's prescient wokeness parody from 1993 and the media-fed lie that Russia is giving its troops Viagra to assist in committing sexual assaults against Ukrainians. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Anya Parampil!
Joe Biden, in his move to abolish between $10-20,000 worth of individuals' student debt, decide to enact the policy via a means that was likely to be rejected as unconstitutional by the courts. So was this merely an oversight on the part of the administration or was this path chosen by the White House just to gain the political advantage for the midterms without actually having to provide a single dollar of student debt relief? Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the question with the Revolutionary Blackout Network's Sabby Sabs. Plus a segment on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's insistence that the rocket attack on Poland came from Russia and not, as is now universally acknowledged, from Ukraine.. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Jackson Hinkle and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Jeff Bridges and Joe Biden!
As the final counting takes place in the 2022 midterm elections, Democrats are already crowing about holding off a supposed “red wave” even though they may yet lose the House and Senate. But independent of the outcome in the blue vs red contest, the clear winners will be, as they always are, the oligarchs representing Wall Street, Big Pharma, Big Oil, the heathcare industry and Silicon Valley. Jimmy and his panel of Revolutionary Blackout Network host Nick Cruse and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger break down the results of the midterm elections and how fascism and oligarchy managed to eke out yet another electoral victory. Plus a segment on President Obama getting heckled at a campaign rally over Democrats' support for the march to nuclear war over Ukraine. Also featuring Mischa Paullin and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Al Pacino and the duo of Joe Biden and Jake Tapper!
Writing in The Atlantic, economist Emily Oster announced that it’s time for the COVID wars to end, and for aggrieved parties who may or may not have been “right” in challenging the dominant narrative about vaccines, masks, transmission and related topics to give their antagonists a pass so that we can all move on together. But is that how it works – thousands lose their jobs, while countless more are demonized on a grand scale and everyone’s supposed to just take a mulligan? Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the importance of expressions of contrition if there is to be any “amnesty” for the likes of Noam Chomsky, Piers Morgan and Jimmy Kimmel who did everything they could to smear COVID narrative skeptics. Plus a segment on President Obama getting heckled at a campaign rally over Democrats' support for the march to nuclear war over Ukraine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Alec Baldwin and Benjamin Netanyahu!
University of California-Irvine professor and physician Dr. Aaron Kheriaty (http://aaronkheriaty.substack.com) was fired earlier this year after refusing to get the COVID vaccine since he’d already had COVID and developed natural immunity. Since then he’s become an outspoken advocate against vaccine mandates and the torrent of disinformation and misinformation spread by very powerful interests pushing vaccines and mandates while downplaying natural immunity and possible preventive measures. Jimmy speaks with Dr. Kheriaty about his experience opposing COVID protocols and the lawsuit underway that will force government officials like Anthony Fauci to defend the strictures imposed on the public during the pandemic. Plus a segment on an international democracy forum silencing Dr. Jeffrey Sachs for sharing the truth about U.S. imperialism and violence across the globe since 1950. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Aaron Maté and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
During a recent sparsely attended town hall event, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was confronted by anti-war activists who demanded that AOC stop supporting the war in Ukraine that is rapidly leading the US and Russia to the brink of nuclear war. Instead of engaging with her critics, Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez called the activists “rude,” insisted they wait their turn in line and later upbraided them for shouting over a deaf constituent who she alleged had been trying to speak. Jimmy and America’s Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss AOC’s rank hypocrisy and how she used to emphasize the importance of activists holding the powerful to account even if it means making them uncomfortable. Plus a segment on a Pfizer executive's admission to the European Parliament that the company's COVID vaccine was not tested for transmissibility before gaining approval for distribution. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Harrison Ford and the duo of Barack Obama and James Carville!
During a recent episode of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, the titular host welcomed Rolling Stone Magazine founder Jann Wenner, and the conversation quickly turned to online censorship. Wenner expressed support for the tech industry and government regulating speech since government does so well regulating the food supply and the pharmaceutical industry. At which point Rogan stepped in and set Wenner straight in a gentle but nevertheless devastating way. Jimmy and America’s Comedian Kurt Metzger wonder at the founder of an iconically countercultural publication like Rolling Stone turning into such a neoliberal shill for the establishment. Plus segments on the escalating war in Ukraine, a former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff calling for NATO to negotiate a settlement to the Ukraine War, Joe Biden lying about codifying Roe v Wade into law and a Wired Magazine article with the dumbest work-related advice ever. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!
Chris Hedges is among the most incisive, trenchant analysts of the social, economic and political factors influencing the world for the past 30 years. And he’s here to tell you that the January 6th riots were not the great threat to American democracy they’re cracked up to be. American democracy has been steadily eroding since the Reagan administration, Hedges says, and if you think Donald Trump’s arrival on the political scene is what killed democracy you have not been paying attention. Jimmy and his panel of Hedges and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the myriad ways Wall Street, Big Pharma, weapons manufacturers, Big Ag and other powerful sectors snatched away the reins of power from the American people decades ago. Plus a segment on news that the Nord Stream 2 was not, in fact, permanenly disabled by the recent sabotage attempt, and may be operational again very soon.

On Tuesday it was revealed that the Nord Stream 1 & 2 pipelines that carry liquefied natural gas under Northern Europe’s Baltic Sea had been sabotaged, rendering them inoperable, possibly permanently. And almost as quickly the finger-pointing began, with many in the West alleging that Russia had intentionally damaged its own pipeline while others claimed that a more logical explanation would pin the blame on the U.S., likely acting to eliminate any possibility that European countries will revert to relying on Russia as a source of gas. Jimmy and his panel of The Dive’s Jackson Hinkle and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the competing theories and possible motives behind the Nordstream attacks. Plus segments on how the mainstream media silences internal voices attempting to tell the truth about war and Bill Gates' ongoing effort to blame the pandemic's devastating impact on regular people instead of the oligarchs and their minions in the government who actually make all the decisions. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kit Cabello and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Joe Biden and Vince Vaughn!
At the Detroit Auto Show for an appearance on 60 Minutes, President Joe Biden declared that the pandemic is over. Not surprisingly, handlers immediately started walking back the President’s comments, but the impromptu announcement nevertheless caused a great deal of controversy and heated reactions, both from COVID skeptics and COVID alarmists. Jimmy and his panel of The Dive’s Jackson Hinkle and Convo Couch’s Craig “Pasta” Jardula discuss whether the pandemic really is “over” and what that even means. Plus segments on the arrival of 50 Venezuelan migrants to Martha's Vineyard and the media freakout over Ben Shapiro allegedly grooming a new generation of incels online. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Jeff Bridges and Joe Biden!
The news networks have brimmed with stories lately of the stunning Kharkiv counter-offensive that has seen Ukraine recapture vast swathes of territory from the invading Russians. Have we reached a turning point in the war? Is the handwriting on the wall for Putin and his marauding Russian hordes? Or is this a mere blip, a short-term stumble for the Russian Bear before he continues his inexorable march across all of the Donbass, and possibly all of Ukraine? Jimmy and his panel of America’s comedian Kurt Metzger and The Dive’s Jackson Hinkle discuss this surprising turn of events in the Ukraine War and their larger significance. Plus segments on the latest round of booster misinformation from America's top health officials and the DNC's epic snub of progressives over dark money. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae!

And a phone call from George Clooney!
The FDA has announced emergency use authorization of a booster shot that targets the omicron BA.5 COVID variant. How the current state of the pandemic qualifies as an “emergency” is anyone’s guess. As is the likely effect on anyone given the booster since the authorization process did not involve any actual human testing. In fact, the little information Pfizer has made available to the public involves tests performed on eight mice. And that’s it! Jimmy and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the public’s dwindling interest in boosters and the skepticism from knowledgeable experts over the value of endless COVID boosters Plus segments on the FBI's role in Facebook censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story and Dr. Fauci's latest lie about COVID lockdowns.

If you can believe it, ex-President George W. Bush has announced that he will be teaching a “MasterClass” in leadership that you and anyone else willing to pony up the money can take to learn what Bush has to say on the topic. Whether students will learn the ins and outs of committing war crimes, ignoring the suffering of hurricane victims and overseeing a torture program that continues to this day remains unclear. Jimmy and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the curious choice of a colossal f*ckup like George W. Bush to teach a class in leadership Plus segments on bringing MAGA and communism together and Joe Biden's meager student debt assistance program. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Vince Vaughn and Jake Tapper!
The political world was rocked last week when FBI agents descended on Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump’s Florida estate, and scoured the former president’s home, making off with boxes and boxes of documents. Later reports emerged that Trump may have held on to highly sensitive classified materials relating to the nation’s nuclear program and will be accused of violating the Espionage Act. Democrats cheered the FBI raid while Trump supporters accused the Justice Department of engaging in a partisan witch hunt. Jimmy and his panel of The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss what might have really motivated this unprecedented raid on a former president’s home. Plus a segment on Andrew Yang's inability to defend his new third party effort under wilting questioning from CNN's Jim Acosta. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae!

Pink Floyd founding member and outspoken activist Roger Waters appeared on CNN recently and took advantage of the opportunity to school host Michael Smerconish on a range of topics, including the truth about the Ukraine War’s origins, Russia’s role in winning World War II against the Nazis and Taiwan’s relationship to China. Jimmy and his panel of The Dive’s Jackson Hinkle and America’s comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Waters’ teachable moment and Smerconish’s phony-baloney claims to even-handedness.

New York Times opinion writer Paul Krugman won a Nobel Prize for Economics, but lately it seems like he’s gunning for a new prize – that of Biggest Apologist for the Biden administration.
