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!

“ Jimmy Dore is outrageous and outraged, bothersome and bothered, a crucial, profane, passionate voice for progressives and freethinkers in 21st century America.” -Patton Oswalt

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!

U.S. House Approves $95 Billion MORE In War Funding!

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.

New York Times TRIES To Smear Jackson Hinkle & FAILS!

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!

NPR Whistleblower SCORCHES NPR!

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!

The “Iron Dome” COMPLETELY FAILED! – Scott Ritter

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!
