The Jimmy Dore Show

Jimmy and Children’s Health Defense’s Mary Holland discuss Donald Trump’s recent shift in tone on Operation Warp Speed, highlighting his ultimatum to Pfizer to release full data on COVID-19 vaccines. They frame this as Trump aligning more closely with RFK Jr., who has long criticized vaccine safety and pandemic policies. The two accuse Pfizer of fraud, cover-ups, and knowingly downplaying vaccine injuries, while suggesting legal consequences under the PREP Act for willful misconduct. They argue that Trump was misled by Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, and Big Pharma interests, and that a broader “COVID reckoning” is coming as lies and conflicts of interest are exposed. Plus segments on the pushback RFK received after rooting out Big Pharma shills from the CDC and Trump’s boasting about killing 11 suspected “drug runners” from Venezuela in the Caribbean Sea. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

Despite the extreme dangers, limited medical care, and a lack of proper maternity support, pregnant Ukrainian soldiers are actively serving on the front lines, with many framing their service as fighting for both their country and their children’s future. The New York Times presented these stories as examples of resilience and feminist empowerment, though guest host Misty Winston and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger mock the framing as propaganda and a sign of military desperation. Testimonies from soldiers describe terrifying conditions, from daily shelling to struggling with prenatal care in combat zones, while some returned to service shortly after giving birth. The story highlights just how desperate the Ukrainian military situation has become. Plus segments on the likely implementation of Minority Report-inspired “pre-crime” technology to catch school shooters, Beverly Hills voting to fly the Israeli flag at area schools and the latest example of the New York Times’ shameless caping for Israel. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Jimmy Dore!

A number of prominent Democratic influencers were secretly offered contracts funded by the dark money group 1630 Fund through its project Chorus, paying them thousands per month to push party messaging while prohibiting disclosure of the arrangement. Guest host Misty Winston and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger criticize the hypocrisy of calling this “independent media,” arguing it’s simply undisclosed paid propaganda. They highlight how Democrats, unlike Republicans who’ve built strong influencer ecosystems for years, are scrambling to manufacture online influence while censoring dissent and silencing criticism. The segment frames the scandal as further evidence of corruption, elite manipulation, and the hollowing out of authentic political discourse in favor of scripted shilling. Plus segments on the corporate vultures snapping up public utilities and how unhinged Israelis can be about genocide when they think they’re only talking to each other. Also featuring Jimmy Dore and Stef Zamorano!

In the latest instance of right-wing infighting over Israel, commentator Nick Fuentes launched a fiery attack on Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA, accusing them of hypocrisy for supporting U.S. alignment with Israel while claiming to be Christian and “America First.” Fuentes condemned Kirk for defending what he described as genocide abroad, calling out the organization’s massive funding and influence while failing to challenge U.S. policy. Fuentes contrasted Kirk’s family-man image with the suffering of families in the Middle East, arguing that American Christians bear responsibility for enabling such violence. Jimmy credits Fuentes for being an effective communicator and in the right on this issue, while acknowledging that Kirk has at least allowed anti-Israel voices like Dave Smith and Tucker Carlson to speak at TPUSA events. Plus segments on former Biden administration paid liar Matt Miller admitting that he lied to the press about the Gaza conflict, Microsoft workers protesting the company’s contracts with Israel assisting in genocide and how private equity is destroying healthcare in the United States. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

The FBI recently raided John Bolton’s home over alleged mishandling of classified information, which is a bit ironic since Bolton is an unrepentant war-hawk who once criticized Donald Trump for mishandling classified documents himself. According to reports, CIA Director John Ratcliffe provided the intelligence foundation that led FBI Director Kash Patel to secure the search warrant, intensifying accusations of political weaponization. Jimmy and co-host Stef Zamorano highlight suspicions of hypocrisy, precedent-setting prosecutions, and the rotational retribution in D.C., arguing that such raids typically reflect a system that punishes dissenters across the political spectrum. Nevertheless, Jimmy admits enjoying the Bolton’s legal come-uppance but remains critical of Trump’s own militaristic path and the broader erosion of justice in the U.S. under his administration. Plus segments on Israel’s recent depraved and criminal “double-tap” attack on Nasser Hospital in Gaza, Trump’s abandonment of free speech in signing an executive order making burning the American flag a crime and a restaurant in Washington state fined $1 million for allowing indoor dining during the pandemic. Also featuring Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani!

FBI Director Kash Patel announced “Operation Restore Justice,” which he claims led to over 200 arrests of child predators, the rescue of 15 children, and a vow that offenders would find “no sanctuary.” Yet to Jimmy the announcement rings more than a little hollow, seeing as how Patel and other U.S. authorities protect certain offenders, especially when tied to Israel or powerful political interests. In particular Jimmy mentions the Israeli suspect who was allowed to return home after being caught in a sting operation in Las Vegas, the Epstein files, and other ways elites remain untouched despite repeated promises of accountability. Other commenters on Twitter also evince the same skepticism, viewing the arrests as a distraction from larger cover-ups involving Israel and Epstein’s network. Plus segments on a recent case that may make burning the Israeli flag a crime in the U.S., a former Israeli intelligence director justifying routine slaughter of Palestinians, Megyn Kelly’s shocking dismissal of Palestinian suffering as “propaganda” and Hillary Clinton’s newfound appreciation for Donald Trump’s foreign policy. Also featuring Mike MacRae, Stef Zamorano and Kurt Metzger. And a phone call from JD Vance and Vladimir Putin!

Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, an Israeli cybersecurity official tied to Netanyahu, was recently caught in a Las Vegas child-predator sting, then allowed to leave after posting bond, with blame for the release falling on acting U.S. Attorney for Nevada Sigal Chattah. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Chattah’s past ads and tweets and argue she falsely shifted blame to local authorities even though Nevada’s bail system allowed release before a judge could add conditions. They cite reactions from commentator Candace Owens and Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, contrasting the State Department’s refusing entry into the US to Gaza war-injured children with a lack of any visible push to extradite the suspect. More broadly, Jimmy and Kurt claim Israel is a haven for sex offenders, link the episode to alleged Epstein-related cover-ups and pro-Israel favoritism, and conclude that officials are lying about the case. Plus segments on Trump threatening war with Venezuela, Hamas’ offer to exchange hostages for a ceasefire and the disabled 16-year-old arrested for “stealing” food from the garbage at the Meijer’s supermarket where he worked.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky recently visited Washington, where he surprised many by wearing a suit instead of his usual military-style clothing while meeting with Donald Trump and Trump reportedly praised the wardrobe change. In this video Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger mock Zelensky as desperate for support amid Ukraine’s difficult war situation. They highlight Zelensky’s statements to European allies about sanctions, peace talks, and the need for security guarantees, but argue that his demands are unrealistic considering that the war is essentially lost. The segment concludes that Zelensky’s political survival may be tied to prolonging the conflict, even as Europe and the U.S. appear divided on how to move forward. Plus segments on MSNBC’s desperate rebrand as “MS NOW,” HHS Director Robert F. Kennedy deleting a tweet promoting a new universal vaccine, and millions of Israelis pouring into the streets to protest the ongoing war on Gaza. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Ryan Cristián!

A Department of Justice employee, Shawn Charles Dunn, was arrested in Washington, D.C. after drunkenly throwing a Subway sandwich at a federal officer. The incident, caught on video, sparked exaggerated reactions from officials like the Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, who framed it as a serious attack and even tied it to the “deep state.” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger mock the overblown response, noting that the case was initially charged as a felony before a judge downgraded it, and comparing it humorously to national security scandals. The discussion then broadens to concerns that the Trump administration is using such incidents to justify heavier federal crackdowns in D.C., raising fears of expanding authoritarian control. Plus segments on TikTok hiring an ex-IDF soldier as the platform’s new censorship czar, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s imaginary friends he consults with to determine policy and MSNBC hosts Joe Scarborough and Chris Matthews coming out in support of Donald Trump’s crackdown on crime in DC. Also featuring James Li and Stef Zamorano!

Washington DC’s highly touted 25–28% drop in violent crime is highly dubious, seeing as how murder stats are up while officials claim overall violence is down. Citing an NBC4 Washington report and a headline about a suspended DC police commander, Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss police-union allegations that police supervisors reclassified shootings, stabbings, and carjackings as lesser offenses (e.g., “felony assault” or “injured person”) to keep “violent” crime numbers low. The two add that even if citywide stats showed declines, residents still feel unsafe—pointing to carjackings—and criticize political responses including Trump’s federal intervention in DC policing. They argue resources should go to housing, mental health, and addiction treatment rather than mass incarceration, while questioning the integrity of DC crime reporting. Plus segments on MSNBC hosts praising Trump’s DC police takeover, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s secret plan for “Greater Israel,” the national debt exceeding $37 trillion for the first time and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen telling a protester he would be arrested in Russia — as he’s being arrested. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

A company called Saver in Batavia, Illinois has developed a new lab-made “butter” product that synthesizes fat molecules from carbon dioxide and hydrogen instead of using plants or animals. Backed by Bill Gates, the product is pitched as sustainable with a much smaller land and carbon footprint, and according to preliminary reports, “looks, smells, and tastes like butter.” Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger express skepticism about this product, mocking its “natural flavors,” warning about unknown long-term health effects, and recalling past nutrition flip-flops like margarine. Jimmy also skewers elite hypocrisy on climate and food solutions and says he won’t be adopting the lab butter without better science. Plus segments on Trump deploying federal agents and National Guard troops to DC to deal with violent crime in the nation’s capital and Matt Gaetz revealing that he was spied on by government agents when he traveled as a Congressman to Israel. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!

There’s little question anymore that political elites—Democrats and Republicans alike—are part of a so-called "Uniparty" controlled by billionaire interests, and both parties cater to the same oligarchs rather than the public. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss former Clinton era labor secretary Robert Reich’s appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where the two agree that it’s necessary to get big money out of politics, but they expose their own hypocrisy given that Democratic campaigns often outpace Republicans in billionaire backing. Jimmy points out that economic inequality has worsened instead of improving under both Democrats and Republicans, in particular citing the 2008 bank bailout without reforms, while he also notes that Democrats talk a big game about promoting democracy but rig their own primaries across election cycles. Plus segments on a Nebraska town hall audience jeering at GOP Rep Mike Flood after he gaslit them about universal healthcare and Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro responding to the FBI’s $50 million bounty on him by offering his own $50 million reward for anyone sharing the full, unedited Epstein client list. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Liam Neeson!

Congressional investigations into Jeffrey Epstein are now focusing on Bill and Hillary Clinton with subpoenas going out to the former President and First Lady, as well as other key players in the Epstein affair — but not Donald Trump, Kash Patel or Pam Bondi. As Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss, the investigators have to date pointedly avoided asking about Epstein’s 17 visits to the White House during Bill Clinton’s presidency, instead focusing on after Clinton left office, suggesting intentional deflection. The hosts agree that the most incriminating Epstein connections are being ignored, including what led to the sweetheard plea bargain Epstein received from then US Attorney and later Trump Labor Secretary Alex Acosta. Plus a segment on Bill Maher’s unhinged and unfailing support for Israel and the establishment. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

A former Israeli soldier testified that on October 7th 2023, the day of the Hamas attacks, troops were unexpectedly ordered to cancel all border patrols and stand down between 5:20 and 9:00 a.m., despite Gaza being one of the most heavily surveilled areas in the world. this strange directive raised serious doubts, especially since the attack began just over an hour later, and the official explanation about a sniper threat didn’t add up for soldiers stationed close to the fence. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger present a broader theory that Israeli leadership, including Netanyahu, intentionally empowered Hamas over more moderate Palestinian factions to justify military action and territorial expansion. The soldier, now injured and reflecting on the events, expressed confusion, betrayal, and a desire for the truth, believing that the attacks were used as a political pretext at great human cost. Plus segments on Democratic Senator and former intelligence operative Elissa Slotkin pushing the BS lie to Stephen Colbert that the CIA are just regular patriotic folks doing their best to help keep Americans safe and Donald Trump denying disaster relief to any state or city that boycotts Israel. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Andrew Cuomo!

A newly declassified annex to Special Counsel John Durham’s report includes a March 2016 memo showing that Hillary Clinton personally approved a campaign plan to publicly tie Donald Trump to Russian election interference, allegedly to distract from her private email scandal. The intelligence indicates the Clinton campaign enlisted both the DNC and outside groups to shape that narrative, then encouraged the FBI to amplify it. Despite FBI skepticism and internal disagreement over credibility, the Steele dossier was used to launch the public "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation, further fueling the false Russiagate storyline. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger point out how Jimmy got this story right from the beginning, yet was widely smeared even by others on the independent media left. So will apologies and mea culpas be forthcoming? Don’t hold your breath. Plus a segment on economist Jeffrey Sachs’ scathing indictment of Trump’s plan to saddle Russia with additional sanctions unless a ceasefire in Ukraine can be reached in ten days. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Jeff Bridges!

The new U.S.–EU trade deal negotiated between Donald Trump and the EU’s Ursula von der Leyen is surprisingly one-sided in favor of the United States. In the end Europe made major concessions, including accepting a 15% tariff on goods and agreeing to purchase $750 billion worth of U.S. energy, while the U.S. gave up virtually nothing in return. Although European leaders were unhappy with the deal, they accepted it to avoid a full-blown trade war, with critics like former Belgian Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt calling it disastrous and poorly negotiated. Jimmy argues that Europe weakened its own position by severing energy ties with Russia and becoming dependent on U.S. energy and defense, effectively allowing Trump to dictate the terms. He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger conclude that European leaders have sold out their own nations' interests to serve U.S. and transnational elite agendas, leaving their populations economically disadvantaged and politically powerless. Plus segments with Children’s Health Defense CEO Mary Holland on the newly confirmed CDC head and the surprise departure of Dr. Vinay Prasad from the FDA, and a closing segment on rocker Dave Matthews’ recent statement of support for Palestine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

Jimmy and Stef recount a terrifying flight experience on a Southwest Airlines trip from Burbank to Las Vegas, where the plane made a sudden drop due to a near mid-air collision with a vintage military aircraft. Passengers experienced several seconds of weightlessness, with some hitting their heads and two flight attendants injured, as the pilot took evasive action following a collision avoidance system alert. Jimmy expressed frustration that the airline never contacted passengers afterward. He also described lingering effects, including a sense of trauma and unease during a simulated motion experience at the Las Vegas Sphere. Plus segments on the new efforts in Congress to censor pro-Palestinian content online and Stephen Colbert’s surprising flip-flop on Big Pharma. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance!

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger cover the surprising news that French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron have filed a 218-page, 22-count defamation lawsuit in Delaware Superior Court against conservative commentator Candace Owens. The suit alleges that Owens spread false and malicious conspiracy theories, including claims that Brigitte Macron was born male and is secretly Emmanuel Macron’s brother, as well as that the couple is involved in CIA mind-control experiments. These accusations were widely circulated through Owens’ eight-part podcast series “Becoming Brigitte,” social media posts, and branded merchandise, which the Macrons argue were used to profit from their reputational harm. In response, Owens has doubled down on her claims, calling the lawsuit a “goofy PR stunt” and framing the legal action as an attack on her First Amendment rights. And special bonus: Jimmy is even called out by name in the lawsuit for talking about Candace Owens’ claims! Plus segments on Trump’s plan to solve the homelessness problem through incarceration and the target on Burkina Faso’s independent-minded president, Ibrahim Traore. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from George Clooney!

In response to CBS’s announcement that Stephen Colbert’s late night talk show had been canceled, Jon Stewart railed against the network and its parent company, Paramount, accusing them of prioritizing an $8 billion merger with Skydance and political appeasement over the value of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Stewart argues that the decision was more political than economic, although he admits that the Colbert show was not cost-effective and outdated, comparing it to Blockbuster Video and Tower Records. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger mock Stewart’s diatribe, noting that he has long played the role of establishment insider pushing dominant narratives about the Ukraine War, COVID and any number of other topics. Plus segments on Tulsi Gabbard’s explosive Russiagate accusations against President Obama and Rep. Thomas Massie pushing back hard against Speaker Mike Johnson and President Trump to get the Epstein files released. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

Carey Wedler, a content creator and former journalist/editor at TheAntiMedia.org, joins guest host Misty Winston to discuss her recent Substack article, “Five stories you probably missed during the Epstein circus.” Wedler highlights five underreported developments: massive Pentagon contracts to AI firms (XAI, Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) in warfare, a Pentagon office for weapons testing being dismantled, questionable claims about Trump striking Iranian nuclear sites, and emerging skepticism around official military narratives. Wedler also examines Trump’s contradictory positions—like supporting stablecoins (via the Genius Act) while opposing central bank digital currencies, and promoting “peace” while authorizing extensive air strikes, including in Yemen. Finally, she notes the EPA’s halted efforts to address fluoride in drinking water—a reversal of Trump’s prior approval—and emphasizes this string of broken promises as evidence that the MAGA movement may be awakening to the reality that politicians often fail to deliver on their radical claims. Plus segments on RFK’s dubious announcement of a huge MAHA win by persuading Coke to switch from corn syrup to real sugar and Democrats’ continued defense of support for the genocidal Israel regime.
