Well, it's over — after much controversy and ugliness through a lengthy campaign, New York City has elected Zohran Mamdani as the next mayor. Contrary to the consensus on the left, however, Jimmy and Due Dissidence's Russell Dobler do not believe Mamdani's victory represents a radical political shift but rather a continuation of establishment politics backed by elite interests, including figures like Alex Soros.

Russell suggests that while Mamdani may implement limited reforms such as a rent freeze, his administration is unlikely to deliver transformative change, comparing his prospects to past Democratic mayors like Bill de Blasio. The discussion also highlights how demographic shifts and frustration with entrenched political power shaped the election, signaling the end of an era for New York's old political establishment.

Plus segments on Mamdani's decidedly anti-worker stance regarding fired city workers who refused to take the COVID vaccine and Israel arresting the nation's chief prosecutor after she charged Israeli prison guards with sexual assault of Palestinian prisoners.

In this episode Jimmy seeks to dispel misinformation about he SNAP program, which provides food assistance to low income Americans. He points out that nearly one-third of Americans are low-income and two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled individuals.

He also points out that the U.S., despite being the richest nation in history, prioritizes foreign spending—such as aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Argentina—over feeding its own citizens. This, he says, is evidence of a declining empire manipulated by billionaire and corporate interests that have captured both major political parties. He concludes that the growing wealth gap, rising inflation, and political distraction over culture wars reflect a system that serves elites while ordinary Americans struggle to survive.

Jimmy Dore and Reportage author James Corbett discuss a recent conversation on CNBC where the panel discussed the problem of wealth inequality in the United States, and suggest that a civil war between the haves and the have nots may be looming.

Corbett argues that the ruling oligarchs deliberately promote cultural and partisan conflicts to prevent a unified populist movement against systemic corruption and corporate dominance. Both conclude that true change requires unity across political lines and awareness of how mainstream media maintains public division to protect elite interests.

Candace Owens has responded to criticism of her speculation about Turning Point USA staffer Mikey McCoy's curious behavior immediately after Charlie Kirk's shooting. Owens defends McCoy by acknowledging he may have been following pre-set emergency instructions or reacting in shock, although Jimmy finds those claims less than plausible and questions inconsistencies in TPUSA's narrative.

Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger also question Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow's remarks comparing conspiracy theorists to addicts, which Owens frames as a psychological operation meant to discredit critics. The discussion expands to accuse media, political, and religious figures of gaslighting and covering up key details surrounding the incident.

Plus segments on the internal clash within the Trump administration between Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard over the Kirk investigation and journalist Michael Shellenberger upending the dominant climate change narrative about sea level rise.

Publicly, Megyn Kelly is accepting uncritically the official narrative surrounding Charlie Kirk's alleged murder by Tyler Robinson, based on her conversations with the FBI and Charlie's security team. Jimmy mocks Kelly for admitting she doesn't watch Candace Owens, who has exposed inconsistencies in the official story, and accuses her of dishonesty and career-driven cowardice.

Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger compare the situation to past government cover-ups surrounding the killings of JFK and RFK, claiming the evidence doesn't support the version of events being promoted.

Plus segments on Donald Trump Jr.'s clumsy doublespeak on questions surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination and suspicious Google searches for "Tyler James Robinson" in Huntsville, Alabama prior to Kirk's shooting.

In a recent video post, online commentator and former Trump devotee Candace Owens emotionally suggests that Charlie Kirk was "betrayed" and implies Donald Trump and his allies may have allowed his death to happen. Owens expresses that she's "fully lost faith in Trump" and makes dark jokes about how "they give you a holiday and a boulevard after they kill you," referencing the tributes given to Kirk, including "Charlie Kirk Square" in Israel.

Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger analyze Owens' comments, mock media reactions, and discuss the backlash from figures like Steven Crowder, who harshly attacked Owens, while allies such as Ian Caroll defended her interpretation. The discussion then turns into a broader critique of conservative hypocrisy, Israel's influence in U.S. politics, and fears of censorship or retaliation against those questioning official narratives.

The Trump administration's proposed $40 billion bailout to Argentina would seem to contradict Trump's "America First" rhetoric and shows this President is willing to treat the US treasury like a cash register doling out ungodly sums of taxpayer dollars to global billionaire interests.

As Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss, the bailout is structured in a way that allows private hedge funds — such as those tied to billionaire Rob Citrone and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant — to reap profits while U.S. taxpayers absorb the risk. Jimmy also points out that the policy is being pushed despite Argentina's poor economic track record and adverse impact on U.S. farmers (especially soybean and beef producers) in a trade war context.

This bailout is sadly just another part of a broader system where government subsidies favor elite global interests while American workers and everyday citizens get the shaft but still get to foot the bill.

Plus segments on Trump's abandonment of "America First" to screw over U.S. cattle ranchers and YET ANOTHER serious question raised about Charlie Kirk's security team.

Candace Owens recently announced that she will defy a Utah judge's gag order related to the Charlie Kirk assassination trial, claiming she's uncovered explosive evidence of a cover-up. The gag order, issued by Judge Tony Graph without formal requests from prosecutors or defense, restricts over 3,000 potential witnesses, attorneys, and even the media from discussing the case.

Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss alleged irregularities in the judge's appointment, unusual Israeli IP searches of court officials before the murder, and questionable handling of the defendant's legal representation.

Former National Security Advisor John Bolton has been indicted on 18 felony counts for allegedly mishandling and transmitting classified information, some of which was reportedly accessed by hackers linked to Iran. The investigation, which began under the Biden administration, followed standard Justice Department procedures and was not politically directed — despite what Bolton and his defenders claim.

Prosecutors allege Bolton shared sensitive information with his wife and daughter over non-governmental messaging apps while drafting a memoir, and later failed to disclose classified material on a hacked personal account. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger note that the case has drawn attention for its contrast with the Trump and Biden classified document controversies, with many observers highlighting Bolton's past calls for harsh punishment against others accused of similar offenses.

Remember the uproar when it was revealed that the Biden administration had pressured social media companies to remove certain online content, a clear assault on free speech? Well guess what — the Trump Justice Department under Pam Bondi is now doing the same thing!

In this segment Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Facebook removing an ICE-tracking group at the request of the Justice Department as well as earlier instances of the FBI and White House dictating censorship of COVID-19-related content on social media.

Jimmy exposes this behavior as blatant political hypocrisy, with each party criticizing censorship only when out of power but continuing it once in control. The segment concludes by framing the situation as evidence that U.S. administrations, regardless of party, maintain similar approaches to government influence over online platforms and speech regulation.

Plus segments on the Trump administrations increasingly invasive plans to stage a coup in Venezuela and the highly suspicious Google searches that took place in DC and Israel prior to Charlie Kirk's shooting.
