The Jimmy Dore Show

Donald Trump and his administration are now downplaying and dismissing the importance of the Jeffrey Epstein case, despite years of his own allies demanding transparency and justice over Epstein's ties to intelligence agencies and elite blackmail networks.  Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to investigative journalist Nick Bryant about how Epstein could not have operated alone and was likely backed by powerful intelligence interests from the U.S., Israel, and the U.K., with both political parties complicit in covering up the scandal. The discussion underscores how Epstein's connections, including to figures like Les Wexner and Peter Thiel, point to a broader system of blackmail and elite protection that remains untouched. Plus segments on the real reason the Trump administration is lying so transparently about Epstein and Charlie Kirk raising the alarm among MAGA that Trump may also soon issue amnesty for illegal immigrants in certain sectors of the economy. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

The Trump Department of Justice, headed by Pam Bondi, has announced it will not be releasing Jeffrey Epstein's client list, in what appears to be a transparent coverup for powerful figures possibly implicated in Epstein's sex trafficking operations.  As Jimmy points out, despite earlier promises from Bondi and FBI director Kash Patel that damning evidence existed, the official narrative now claims there is no client list, no blackmail material, and that Epstein died by suicide. As a result we have just another example of systemic corruption and hypocrisy in both political parties and the justice system. Plus a segment on Elon Musk's early effort to create a new political party to take on the duopoly's vise-like grip on our government. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Mike MacRae and Sam Tripoli. And a phone call from Liam Neeson!

According to online commentator Candace Owens, President Donald Trump personally called her to pressure her into stopping her coverage of allegations involving Brigitte Macron's gender. Trump was reportedly concerned that Owens' reporting could harm negotiations to end the Ukraine war, although Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger wonder how the first lady of France's penis or the lack thereof could affect delicate ceasefire negotiations. The call reportedly occurred amid growing controversy surrounding the allegations, highlighting Trump's willingness to use direct influence to control media messaging. Owens says she told the president that it's not her fault Macron married someone with a penis. Plus segments on the recent CDC announcement that mercury would be removed from all vaccines, the FDA expanding the warning labels on COVID vaccines and Trump's plans to prosecute CNN employees for covering the release of an app that tracks ICE agents. Also featuring Mary Holland, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!

Embalmers across the U.S. are reporting an alarming rise in unusual, persistent blood clots found in corpses since the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines. In this eye-opening interview, researcher Thomas Haviland shares findings from his national survey, highlighting what embalmers say was rare or nonexistent prior to 2021.  Plus segments on Israel and zonist turn on Piers Morgan and Diddy's acquitted of sex trafficing and rico charges.   Featuring Thomas Haviland, Kurt Metzger, and Stef Zamorano

At Glastonbury 2025, British punk-rap duo Bob Vylan, consisting of frontman Bobby Vylan and drummer Bobbie Vylan, performed a politically charged set on the West Holts Stage on June 28. During the performance, Bobby Vylan led the crowd in chants of "Free, free Palestine" and "Death, death to the IDF" (Israel Defense Forces), while displaying a screen message labeling Israel's actions in Gaza as a "genocide." The set, broadcast live on BBC iPlayer, sparked widespread controversy, with Glastonbury organizers and Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemning the chants as "appalling hate speech." Plus segments on the DOJ executes largest healthcare Fraud takedown and Trumps new WEF plan to end Gaza war in two weeks. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano

Kim Bright discussing the pervasive issue of microplastics in the human body, particularly their accumulation in the brain, liver, and kidneys, with links to health issues like dementia, heart disease, and reproductive problems. She highlights a study showing microplastics are 7-10 times more concentrated in the brain than other organs and connects them to various health risks. Bright emphasizes that microplastics are unavoidable, found in 94% of U.S. tap and bottled water, 88% of meats, and even clothing like polyester. Plus segments on no one is coming to save democracy and proof they lied about Israels attacks on Iran. Also featuring Mike Mcrae, Stef Zamorano, and Kurt Metzger

Description: A scary Muslim named Zohran Mamdani has won the Democratic mayoral primary, and Zionists are absolutely freaking out. In this clip Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger mock the over-the-top reactions from political figures and media personalities, particularly right-wing commentators, who equate Mamdani's Muslim identity and progressive views with anti-American and anti-Israel sentiment. They also explore how Mamdani's refusal to blindly support Israel during debates may have contributed to his popularity, contrasting it with exaggerated loyalty pledges from other candidates. Throughout, the hosts criticize the Democratic Socialists of America, highlight government hypocrisy, and deride fearmongering rhetoric around Muslims and leftist policies.  Plus segments on Iran Attacks backfiring on Israel and Marjorie Taylor Greene BLASTS Trump Over Iran Attacks! Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Mike MacRae, and Stef Zamorano. Plus a Phone call from JD Vance!

During his first term President Donald Trump adopted a vacillating stance toward Iran—initially issuing threats and then suggesting diplomatic negotiations.  In this video guest host Misty Winston and Jimmy talk to antiwar.com's Scott Horton about the White House's decision to keep “all options on the table,” calling it irresponsible brinkmanship tantamount to terrorism against a non-threatening nation. The hosts underscore that preemptive war violates international norms and point out that even past U.S. presidents with far greater threats refrained from such actions.  Plus segments on Donald Trump belittling Iran's weak missile attack on a U.S. airbase in Qatar and Trump using the same warmongering rhetoric as his predecessor George W. Bush. Also featuring Misty Winston, Stef Zamorano, Mike MacRae and Kurt Metzger. Plus a phone call from Andrew Cuomo!

Guest host Misty Winston, along with surprise “sitting-in” guest Jimmy Dore, criticizes the Western media's double standards in reporting hospital bombings by Iran versus Israel. They highlight the hypocrisy of Israeli and Western outrage over an Iranian missile strike near an Israeli hospital, given Israel's repeated bombings of hospitals in Gaza, Lebanon, and even Iran itself.  The discussion underscores how media narratives are manipulated to frame Israel as the perpetual victim while ignoring its violations of international law. Ultimately, the hosts argue that Israel's credibility has collapsed under the weight of its own actions and propaganda, especially in the age of social media. Plus segments on President Trump's demand for an investigation into the 2020 election, a judge freeing pro-Palestinian activist Khalil Mahmoud from detention, Trump threatening a nuclear first strike against Iran and NDI Tulsi Gabbard going “off message” to dispute whether Iran is developing nuclear weapons. Also featuring Antiwar.com's Scott Horton!

During a recent interview host Tucker Carlson questioned Ted Cruz about U.S. policy toward Iran, pressing him on his lack of basic knowledge about the country while accusing him of advocating reckless military intervention. Cruz awkwardly admits he doesn't know Iran's population, despite calling for regime change, and the exchange becomes increasingly combative as Carlson challenged the Texas senator's credibility.  Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence show note that Carlson gets Cruz to reveal that the U.S. is already backing Israeli strikes against Iran—contradicting official government statements. The hosts argue the push for war is being driven by pro-Israel influence and propaganda, echoing the prelude to the Iraq War. They also urge viewers, especially Trump supporters, to withhold all political support if Trump endorses military action, emphasizing the catastrophic consequences of war with Iran. Plus segments on the likely consequences of war between the United States and Iran with Iranian professor Mohammad Marandi and the most common responses trauma surgeon Dr. Feroze Sidhwa receives when he tells people about working in a Gaza hospital.

Billionaire tech bro Peter Thiel was recently awkwardly confronted by a reporter outside the Bilderberg meeting about his company Palantir's surveillance activities and his alleged ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Thiel refused to respond, and merely quickened his pace. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence show discuss Thiel's growing influence through Palantir and Anduril, which are tied to global surveillance and warfare technologies.  They criticize the secrecy of the Bilderberg Group and argue that such elite gatherings shape geopolitical events far beyond democratic control. The video highlights the convergence of tech billionaires, defense industry leaders, and political figures who allegedly benefit from global conflicts.  Plus segments on Israel bombing the Iranian state television station and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu trying to pin the Trump assassination attempts on Iran. Also featuring Aaron Maté and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Jake Tapper!

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard warned of a “nuclear holocaust” and chastised “warmongers” for bringing the world “closer to the brink of nuclear annihilation than ever before” in a foreboding video posted to social media on Tuesday. In the three-minute video, Gabbard details a recent visit to Hiroshima, Japan to learn more about the aftermath of the U.S. nuclear attack on the city in 1945 during World War II. The video features footage of Gabbard's trip and archival footage showing victims, interspersed with Gabbard speaking directly to camera about the consequences of a nuclear attack. Guest host Aaron Maté discusses the curious response from prominent neoconservatives who seem to feel that warning Americans about the dangers of nuclear war is a bad thing. Plus segments on White House advisor Stephen Miller's role in the ongoing ICE raids, Donald Trump calling for Gavin Newsom's arrest and Rand Paul badmouthing Trump's military parade through Washington DC. Also featuring Mike MacRae, Russell Dobular, Keaton Weiss and Jalyssa Dugrot. And a phone call from JD Vance!

The U.S. is evacuating nonessential staff from its Baghdad embassy and family members of military personnel from several bases in the Gulf amid growing concerns about the security situation, per two State Department and Pentagon officials. The unusual steps are taking place ahead of a crucial round of nuclear negotiations between the U.S. and Iran and amid threats made by Tehran to launch missiles against American military bases in the region in retaliation for any attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. Guest host Aaron Maté and retired United States Army Lieutenant Colonel, and foreign policy analyst Daniel Davis discuss the likelihood that an attack on Iran is imminent and why the consequences of such an attack could be dire.  Plus segments on Vice President JD Vance's flailing attempts to snow podcaster Theo Von about the Gaza genocide and gymnast Simone Biles'  confused attack on former competitive swimmer Riley Gaines over trans competitors in women's sports. Also featuring Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence show.

Conservative activist Laura Loomer weighed in on the ongoing ICE protests in Los Angeles, calling for tech surveillance corporation Palantir to assist in the deportation of immigrants in the country illegally. Many critics took issue with Loomer's take, pointing out that mass surveillance of the kind practiced by Palantir is far more dangerous than even the presence of millions of migrants. Jimmy joins the show from the road to discuss with guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss whether Donald Trump is a Trojan horse for the security state to exert total control over the populace. Plus segments on Israel's seizure of the Freedom Flotilla aid ship sailing with Greta Thunberg en route to Gaza and the recent escalation by Russia in the Ukraine War in response to Ukraine's drone attacks inside Russia.

Israel has always operated a powerful and effective propaganda system - they even have a name for it, “Hasbara.” But in the age of social media the Jewish state finds itself falling behind in the propaganda battle as the ongoing genocide in Gaza and general treatment of Palestinians becomes too horrific for the rest of the world to ignore or Israel to paper over. Jimmy speaks with formerly Gaza-based Palestinian-Egyptian journalist Youmna El Sayed about her reporting and why the tide has turned against Israel in the information war. Plus segments on the bloodthirsty commentators populating Israeli television, House Speaker Mike Johnson's disingenuous response to Elon Musk's criticism of the budget bill and Barstool Sports' Dave Portnoy's unhinged reaction to antisemitic jokes.  Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Mike MacRae and Aaron Maté. And a phone call from Douglas Murray!

Privacy activists, many of whom are supporters of President Donald Trump, are expressing anger and disbelief following reports that his administration had advanced plans to create a national citizen database with technology firm Palantir. The White House has reportedly contracted Palantir, a Colorado-based analytics company co-founded by Trump supporter Peter Thiel, to assist in compiling a database of personal information on American citizens, according to unnamed government officials and Palantir employees. The purported deal follows project talks Palantir had with the Social Security Administration and the Department of Education. Jimmy speaks with author, activist and investigative journalist Derrick Broze about how Trump's embrace of Palantir represents a betrayal of MAGA principles. Plus segments on Catherine Austin Fitts breaking down Elon Musk's plans to institute a social credit system in the U.S. and Elon going scorched earth on Trump's budget bill. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!

Zionists and their defenders frequently point to the indoctrination children in the West Bank and Gaza are subjected to as proof that Palestinians are raised from birth to hate Jews generally, and Israelis specifically. Yet if you watch a recent interview Benjamin Netanyahu gave to a young Israeli boy — and specifically how the Israeli Prime Minister described the conflict with Hamas -- it would be difficult to conclude anything other than that Netanyahu himself is engaging in rank propaganda and indoctrination. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss discuss with guest Dr. Gabor Maté what Netanyahu says to the child interviewer and why it's so difficult to break Jews away from this kind of programming. Plus segments on the recent Boulder, Colorado improvised flamethrower attack, Jon Stewart raking Jake Tapper over the coals for his crappy “journalism” and DNC official David Hogg caught on video calling out Nancy Pelosi's corruption. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Andrew Cuomo!

Billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk is leaving the Trump administration after leading a tumultuous efficiency drive, during which he upended several federal agencies but ultimately failed to deliver the generational savings he had sought. During a press conference with President Trump Friday, Musk pledged that despite his departure the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) would continue its work toward cutting a trillion dollars out of the federal budget Guest host Keaton Weiss and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how DOGE never came close to cutting the promised level of government funding, mainly because Musk and his acolytes refused to follow through on his promise to eliminate waste, fraud and abuse at the Pentagon. Plus segments on Joe Biden's bizarre threat of violence against CNN's Jake Tapper and Israel's radical ramping up of illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank.

Academic and political scientist Norman Finkelstein clashed with Israeli historian Benny Morris during a recent appearance on Piers Morgan's television program. Specifically, Morris kept interrupting and accusing Finkelstein of lying as he tried to share the results of a recent Penn State University poll showing that majorities of Israelis support genocide in Gaza and a substantial majority support ethnic cleansing. Guest host Keaton Weiss and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Finkelstein comparing Morris to a Holocaust denier. Plus segments on Donald Trump accusing Vladimir Putin of going “crazy” and Israeli troops firing on crowds of starving Gazans desperately crowding into designated relief zones.

L.A.'s top homeless services official Va Lecia Adams Kellum engaged in major misconduct, including hiring unqualified friends into powerful positions, trying to destroy public records and behaving inappropriately at a conference, according to two whistleblower claim letters. The letters were written by an attorney on behalf of two former L.A. Homeless Services Authority employees who alleged they were wrongfully fired for speaking up against wrongdoing by Adams Kellum.  Jimmy speaks with Food Not Bombs founder Keith McHenry about the persistent problem of homelessness in American cities and how institutionalized graft and self-dealing ensure that no solution will make a dent in the ongoing crisis. Plus segments on the Biden administration doling out $93 billion to suspicious recipients after Kamala's loss, CNN's unhinged freakout over “Free Palestine” and Tim Dillon schooling a CNN host about the comedy climate today. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!

Two Israeli Embassy employees were shot and killed Wednesday night as they left the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. The suspect in the killing, identified as 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez of Chicago, was initially "observed pacing back and forth outside of the museum" before he approached a group of four people, "produced a handgun," and shot the two victims.  As he was handcuffed, Rodriguez repeatedly shouted "Free Palestine.” The shooting was being investigated as a hate crime, a law enforcement source said. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the details of the case that don't exactly add up, and Israel's history of staging false flag operations to achieve geopolitcal objectives. Plus segments on Piers Morgan's recent turn against Israel, Trump's “Big, Beautiful Bill” passing the House and evidence that the Biden administration covered up serious side effects from the mRNA vaccines.  Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kim Bright and Mary Holland. And a phone call from JD Vance!

The Jeffrey Epstein crimes are no laughing matter, but the idea promoted by the top two officials at the FBI, Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, that Epstein killed himself in a prison cell, certainly is. In fact, that's precisely how commentator Tucker Carlson reacted when he and a guest discussed the purported coverup of Epstein's murder that appeares to be continuing apace under the new FBI leadership Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why Tucker's guffaws are the only logical response to what Patel and Bongino are slinging. Plus segments on Trump's newly proposed $175 billion dollar “Golden Dome” boondoggle, Bernie Sanders admitting that the Democratic Party is corrupt and new FDA recommendations for the COVID vaccine boosters. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

Little progress is being made in negotiations between the United States and Iran over the latter's nuclear program, and that may be by design. The U.S. is demanding a complete dismantling of Iran's nuclear enrichment program, which is a non-starter for the Iranians. Meanwhile, the U.S. appears to have reneged on a promise to get a ceasefire and humanitarian aid into Gaza in exchange for the release of the last American hostage, so Hamas — and by extension Iran — feel the U.S. cannot be trusted in negotiations. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Israel appears to be orchestrating a U.S. attack on Iran that few Americans have any interest in. Plus segments on why Joe Biden's cancer reveal is a huge scandal and Bruce Springsteen's epic hypocrisy in attacking Donald Trump.  Also featuring Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from George Clooney and Jake Tapper!

Republican divisions over changes to Medicaid — the federal health care program for poor, elderly and disabled Americans — are becoming the chief hurdle to getting President Trump's major tax, immigration and energy agenda through Congress. GOP lawmakers who represent swing districts insist they will not vote for any proposal that strips benefits. But conservatives are demanding deep cuts in spending and say restructuring Medicaid is one of the clearest ways to achieve that goal. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Republicans will be able to pass the bill despite the hits MAGA supporters on Medicait will take as a result. Plus segments on President Donald Trump dismantling corrupt ex-FBI head James Comey and the Justice Department's recent announcement of an investigation into fraud committed by UnitedHealth, the company formerly headed by slain CEO Brian Thompson. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Gavin Newsom!

When President Trump declared from the stage of an opulent ballroom in Saudi Arabia that the United States was done nation-building and intervening, that the world's superpower would no longer be “giving you lectures on how to live,” his audience erupted in applause. Supporters at home also applauded as Trump effectively denounced decades of neoconservative American policy in the Middle East. “In the end, the so-called nation builders wrecked far more nations than they built,” Mr. Trump said on Tuesday, during a sweeping address at an investment conference in the Saudi capital of Riyadh. “And the interventionalists were intervening in complex societies that they did not even understand.” Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how even frequent Trump critic Arnaud Bertrand applauded Trump's turn away from imperialist interventionism. Plus segments on the shocking revelations coming out of the Diddy trial, Trump lavishing praise on the ex-Jihadi now leading Syria, and Trump's peace efforts regarding Iran as well as the India-Pakistan conflict. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

President Donald Trump on Monday signed a sweeping executive order setting a 30-day deadline for drugmakers to electively lower the cost of prescription drugs in the U.S. or face new limits down the road over what the government will pay. The order calls on the health department, led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to broker new price tags for drugs over the next month. If deals are not reached, Kennedy will be tasked with developing a new rule that ties the price the U.S. pays for medications to lower prices paid by other countries. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the high prices of pharmaceuticals in the United States and whether Trump's executive order will have the intended effect. Plus segments on Trump bypassing Netanyahu to negotiate the release of the last U.S. hostage in Gaza and reports in the Jerusalem Post suggesting that Trump is planning to declare U.S. recognition of an independent Palestinian state. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Andrew Cuomo!

Reports are emerging that President Donald Trump has cut off communication with Benjamin Netanyahu over concerns that the Israeli Prime Minister is seeking to manipulate Trump into pursuing policies beneficial to Israel but not the United States. Trump has recently been accused even by allies of abandoning his “America First” stance in favor of a more “Israel First” approach. Jimmy and former HUD Assistant Director Catherine Austin Fitts discuss what will need to happen to demonstrate whether this break with Israel is real or just so much talk. Plus segments with Austin Fitts on the threat posed by digital currencies and House leadership killing a vote to make DOGE cuts permanent. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from JD Vance!

The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) has historically lost mass, significantly contributing to sea-level rise, with intensified losses in West Antarctica and parts of East Antarctica, particularly from 2011–2020.  However, between 2021 and 2023, driven by anomalous precipitation, the AIS experienced a record-breaking mass gain, even reversing trends in critical glacier basins like Totten, Moscow, Denman, and Vincennes Bay. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether all this hullaballoo about climate change and melting ice caps may be so much hot air. Plus segments on Israeli police beating up Hasidic Jews in Jerusalem for protesting the Gaza genocide, Donald Trump signing a ban on gain of function research and former congressman and presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich discussing the condescendingly warmongering ways of Arkansas senator Tom Cotton. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Aaron Maté!

Columbia economics professor Jeffrey Sachs is now saying he is “99% sure” that the University of North Carolina (UNC) conducted extensive gain of function research beginning in 2015 and that this research led to the development of COVID-19. Sachs says he is concerned about unregulated research and the lack of global governance for handling dangerous pathogens. This systemic issue underscores the plausibility of an accidental release from a U.S. lab like UNC. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the compelling evidence supporting the conclusion that COVID came from Ralph Baric's research at UNC. Plus segments on Trump wiping out any DOGE savings with increased military spending and how U.S. tariffs are driving African countries to pursue closer ties with China and India. Also featuring Mike MacRae, Moussa Ibrahim and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Alec Baldwin!

Conservative commentator Candace Owens has publicly criticized Donald Trump for abandoning his “American first” pledge in favor of Israel and against free speech. In a recent episode of her podcast, “Candace,” she voiced concerns over the administration's actions against universities, particularly regarding free speech issues. Owens stated, “I never thought that I would see a day where I would be rooting for a university above Donald J. Trump and his administration. But I don't recognize this administration right now.” She highlighted the administration's actions against Harvard University, which is facing threats of federal funding cuts for not complying with certain demands. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Trump has betrayed virtually every fundamental pledge he made to his MAGA base. Plus segments on actor Russell Brand's recent arrest on decades-old sexual assault charges and Health & Human Services director Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s announcement that all new vaccines will only be approved after more rigorous studies involving placebos. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Douglas Murray!

At the Jerusalem JNS Policy Summit, former U.S. Senator Norm Coleman proclaimed, "The masters of the universe are Jews,” identifying a list of major tech firm CEOs who are all Jews. In the face of Gen Z's growing support for Palestine, Coleman urged those CEOs and other powerful Jews to "win the digital battle." Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why young people who get their information from social media rather than traditional sources, would turn against Israel. Plus segments on Trump shredding ABC News reporter Terry Moran over the media's coverup of former President Biden's mental decline, a judge freeing detained international Columbia student Mohsen Mahdawi, Trump compelling Jeff Bezos to cave on including tariff-based price increases on Amazon pages, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky acknowledging that Crimea will remain a part of Russia after negotiations to end the war and Trump claiming he would like to raise taxes on the wealthy but the political cost would be too high. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Stephen Gardner!

Virginia Giuffre, one of the most prominent survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse, has died by suicide, her family said Friday.  Giuffre, 41, died in Neergabby, Australia, where she had been living for several years. Giuffre was one of the earliest and loudest voices calling for criminal charges against Epstein and his enablers. Other Epstein abuse survivors later credited her with giving them the courage to speak out. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Giuffre likely actually committed suicide or if other forces were at play in leading to her death. Plus segments on Democrats' demand that Donald Trump be subjected to the “rule of law” suddenly not applying to the Wisconsin judge who allegedly helped an alien in her court evade authorities and the more than 100 former Israeli spies and IDF soldiers who now work for Facebook. Also featuring Mike MacRae, Stephen Gardner and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from JD Vance! 

President Donald Trump is standing by his embattled Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, and brushing off concerns even as new details are emerging about the military information Hegseth shared in a second group chat on Signal that included his family and friends. Hegseth is also dealing with the fallout from a leadership purge at the top of the Pentagon as he cashiered three top advisers who have lengthy histories with the Defense Secretary. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how the knives have come out for Hegseth, demanding his resignation, and why powerful interests at the Pentagon may be eager to see him go — and it has nothing to do with the so-called “Signal” controversies. Plus segments on Trump's berating Volodymyr Zelensky for stonewalling negotiations to end the Ukraine War, Trump similarly posting “Vladimir, STOP!” to Putin about recent Russian attacks on Kiev and new Syrian president Ahmed al-Sharaa's recent attempts to cozy up to Israel. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Vince Vaughn!

After being embarrassed over his lack of an argument and insistence on semantic minutiae during his appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, British political commentator Douglas Murray raced to the New York Post to pen an opinion piece demanding better “standards” for podcasters like Rogan. Except while decrying the lack of “truth” and “honesty” of Rogan and others, Murray lets loose with a torrent of his own dishonesty and half-truths.  Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how laughable it is to suggest a code of standards for podcasters — meaning fealty to the Zionist party line — when such standards are noticeably absent in mainstream journalism. Plus segments on the UK following through on plans to dim the sun to combat climate change and a recent poll showing a sharp drop in Americans' support for Israel. Also featuring Mike MacRae, Norman Finkelstein and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from George Clooney!

On a recent episode of his podcast, Joe Rogan and his guest Tim Dillon mocked The Spectator's associate editor Douglas Murray for promoting “war tourism” and the notion that people should be barred from commenting on political issues in countries they've never visited Rogan specifically imitated Murray's British accent to say, “You've never beeeeen?” and insist that traveling to a war zone before criticizing anyone involved in the war is basic “courtesy.” Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Joe was mimicking Jimmy's previous mockery of Murray from his appearance on Rogan's podcast. Plus segments on Marco Rubio's announcement that the Trump administration is ready to wash its hands of the Ukraine War, the White House antisemitism task force furiously backpedaling over the demand letter “mistakenly” sent to Harvard and the Trump administration announcing it will soon begin importing cheaper pharmaceuticals from Canada. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from JD Vance!

The Trump White House re-launched the govenrment's official COVID-19 website on Friday. The revamped site blames the origins of the coronavirus on a lab leak in China while criticizing former President Joe Biden, former top U.S. health official Anthony Fauci and the World Health Organization. The website is also critical of steps like social distancing, mask mandates and lockdowns. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how not even this level of government sanctioned critique of the nation's COVID policy will be sufficient to shake some hopeless deadenders in the media and comedy community who refuse to engage in even the most cursory reexamination of their mistaken views over the pandemic. Plus segments on British political commentator Douglas Murray's savage takedown of… British political commentator Douglas Murray, Trump's all-out assault on academic freedom and Chinese commentators' better understanding of the United States than Americans'. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

The Trump administration's aggressive deportation practices, whether sending alleged gang members to a notorious El Salvadoran prison or rounding up foreign students for opposing Israel's war in Gaza, have led many pundits and others to raise the alarm about a Constitutional crisis and the evisceration of due process. But as Jimmy points out, this crisis has been decades in the making, and dates back to when Nobel Peace Prize-winner Barack Obama maintained a “kill list” and signed into law the virtual elimination of Habeas Corpus. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss why now all the President has to do is cry “terrorism” and Constitutional protections fly right out the Oval Office window.  Plus segments on the recent all-women Blue Origin “space flight” and the pro-Palestinian protester removed and arrested at a Bernie Sanders rally. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

On Friday's episode of Real Time, host Bill Maher opened up about a surprising meeting he had last week with former President Donald Trump at the White House. Maher said the encounter was far more cordial and humorous than he ever anticipated. “You can hate me for it, but I'm not a liar. Trump was gracious and measured,” Maher said. “And why isn't that in other settings—I don't know, and I can't answer, and it's not my place to answer. I'm just telling you what I saw, and I wasn't high.” During the meeting, Maher brought along a printout of Trump's past insults directed at him. Surprisingly, Trump took it in stride and even signed it with what Maher described as “good humor.” Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the hype surrounding Maher's visit to the White House and whether the Real Time host was merely charmed by Trump the consummate politician. Plus segments on actor Michael Rapaport whining that his pro-Zionist activism has cost him work in Hollywood, Glenn Greenwald schooling Megyn Kelly on the first amendment and Bernie Sanders mysteriously dropping his talk of the threat of oligarchy during the Biden presidency. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Liam Neeson!

American comedian Dave Smith and British cultural critic Douglas Murray recently joined Joe Rogan for a much-discussed episode of The Joe Rogan Experience. Murray confronted Rogan and criticised him to his face for platforming non-experts to discuss historical and political subject matter. Murray also claimed criticizing such figures was like “punching jelly” because they would fall back on an “I'm no expert” or “I'm just a comedian” defense. Yet when questioned about just who should be allowed to speak on which topics, Murray (who, by the way, has very limited credentials of "expertise") himself turned to jelly, arguing that he hadn't said that only experts should be “platformed,” at which point he pivoted to arguing with Smith for referring to the United States as “we” when discussing the myriad wars the US has fought around the globe. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the series of semantic arguments Murray brought up throughout the show rather than debate the substance of even the subjects he brought up. Plus segments on the recent SCOTUS ruling that the Trump administration must facilitate the return of a Maryland man wrongfully deported to an El Salvador prison and RFK Jr.'s prediction that we will know the real cause of the autism epidemic by September. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from JD Vance!

Donald Trump stunned markets Wednesday with another quick pivot on trade, announcing he would authorize a 90-day pause on his reciprocal tariff plans for all countries except China.  "They were getting a little bit yippy, a little bit afraid," he said Wednesday, referring to the market unrest that unfolded following his "Liberation Day" tariff announcement a week ago. Jimmy and guest host Aaron Maté discuss whether Trump is playing multi-dimensional chess with his tariff policy or is merely caving to concerns of the bond market. Plus segments on Trump taking credit for the rebounding stock market after announcing a 90-day reprieve on most of the tariffs, leaked audio from AIPAC's CEO boasting about the organization's “access” to top Trump officials, Benjamin Netanyahu pushing the “Libya Solution” for Iran, and Trump and Pete Hegseth boasting about the United States' first ever TRILLION-DOLLAR defense budget.

Some of Donald Trump's most prominent billionaire backers have begun sounding the alarm on the tariffs that have roiled markets. JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon warned they could have lasting negative consequences and impact America's long-term economic alliances and the global economy.  Meanwhile, hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, who endorsed Donald Trump's run for president, warned the country was "heading for a self-induced, economic nuclear winter,” and said business leaders were losing confidence in Trump. Even Elon Musk has expressed reservations about whether the tariffs are all that advisable. Guest host Aaron Maté and Americans' comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether maybe the tariffs are actually good if they're upsetting members of the billionaire class.

Stocks plunged on Thursday and then again on Friday as U.S. trading reacted to President Trump's announcement of heavy tariffs on nearly every nation exporting products to the United States.  Trump announced Wednesday he would impose a 10 percent tariff on all imports, with higher rates for key trading partners in response to what the White House considers unfair trade practices.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced far-reaching new tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners — a 34% tax on imports from China and 20% on the European Union, among others — that threaten to dismantle much of the architecture of the global economy and trigger broader trade wars. Trump, in a Rose Garden announcement, said he was placing elevated tariff rates on dozens of nations that run meaningful trade surpluses with the United States, while imposing a 10% baseline tax on imports from all countries in response to what he called an economic emergency. The president, who said the tariffs were designed to boost domestic manufacturing, used aggressive rhetoric to describe a global trade system that the United States helped to build after World War II, saying “our country has been looted, pillaged, raped and plundered” by other nations. Guest host Aaron Maté and former Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich discuss the likely negative economic consequences of Trump's tariffs, consequences that will likely be borne by those at the bottom of the economic ladder.
