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...

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.

Dec 27, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast 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 discus...
Dec 25, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast 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 a...
Dec 23, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast 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 l...

Dec 18, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast 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 Metzg...

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, ...

These would be blanket pardons, seeing as how none have been formally charged with any crimes. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger ...

Dec 06, 2024•57 min•Transcript available on Metacast 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.

Nov 29, 2024•1 hr•Transcript available on Metacast 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 revelati...
Nov 27, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast 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 ...
Nov 25, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast 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.

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Met...

Nov 20, 2024•1 hr 1 min•Transcript available on Metacast 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 th...

Nov 15, 2024•58 min•Transcript available on Metacast 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 unexpec...
