The Jimmy Dore Show

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. Jimmy discusses the Stanford physician’s support for the Great Barrington Declaration during the pandemic and what his appointment at the NIH might mean. 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!
