The Jimmy Dore Show

Jimmy Dore and The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal respond to Steve Bannon's claim that Trump has rejected a large-scale bombing campaign on Iran and that the Iranian government is supposedly on the verge of collapse. Max argues that the opposite is true, saying sanctions have failed to topple the state, pro-government rallies are massive, and a U.S. or Israeli attack would likely unify the population around the government. 
Max warns that Israel and hawkish U.S. politicians like Lindsey Graham are still pressuring Trump to escalate and draw the U.S. into a long regional war, and could succeed in those efforts. The two conclude by pointing out that regime-change fantasies ignore Iran's history, political base, and the catastrophic outcomes of similar interventions in Iraq and Syria.
Plus segments on Lindsey Graham's sadness over the lack of bombing of Iran, Trump critic Scott Ritter being debanked and an unhinged BBC talking head's theory about Iran controlling Trump.

It's become apparent that recent ICE raids are largely performative, aimed at signaling toughness to a political base rather than enforcing immigration law in the places where most undocumented labor actually occurs. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger point out that ICE recruitment and training standards are dangerously low, citing an investigative account in which a writer was quickly "onboarded" with minimal screening. 
Comedians and podcasters Tim Dillon and Joe Rogan are quoted criticizing masked, militarized street arrests as abusive, prone to mistakes, and harmful to public trust. The segment concludes that the raids distract from unmet campaign promises and broader policy failures, while putting unqualified agents and civilians at risk.
Plus segments on CIA and Israeli misinformation driving Americans' perceptions about the Iran protests and Caleb Maupin confronting pro-war Venezuelan expatirates protesting in New York City.

Great news! Remember how Donald Trump used to talk about cutting the U.S. military budget in half and making peace with China and Russia? Well, that's all over because Trump is now calling for a massive INCREASE in the Pentagon budget to $1.5 trillion. 
Guest host Chris Keene and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger argue that this dramatic flip-flop contradicts Trump's anti-war rhetoric on the campaign trail and primarily serves the interests of defense contractors, tech firms, and oligarchs rather than public safety. They criticize media and bipartisan political elites for normalizing endless militarization while homelessness, poverty, and social decay worsen at home. The discussion frames the spending surge as part of a broader drift toward global conflict and a clear example of how campaign promises collapse once power is secured.
Plus segments on how recent out-of-control episodes involving ICE are all part of a larger plan for cracking down on Americans' civil rights and why Trump is taking the wrong approach to the unrest in Iran.

Dan Bongino has returned to independent media after leaving his post as FBI Deputy Director, and is now back to being a bombastic "Twitter tough guy" after failing to deliver accountability when he actually held power. Guest host Keaton Weiss highlights Bongino's attacks on critics like Dave Smith while contrasting them with his record of defending official narratives around Jeffrey Epstein's death and other high-profile scandals. 
Keaton cites Jimmy replying on Twitter, arguing that Bongino damaged his credibility by shielding institutions and elites, then lashing out at independent commentators who demand transparency. The episode frames Bongino's online rage as a collapse driven by hypocrisy, ego, and the inability to answer for his own past claims.
Plus segments on JD Vance's bonkers, gaslighting defense of the Minneapolis ICE shooting, Tucker Carlson decrying the lack of humanity demonstrated by many Americans' response to the ICE shooting and the Trump administration's latest dodge to avoid releasing all of the Epstein files.

The political world has been upended by the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by ICE agents on a residential street in Minneapolis during a tense confrontation captured on multiple videos. Guest host Chris Keene and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger dispute DHS and President Trump's claims that the shooting was justifiable on self-defense grounds, arguing that Good was attempting to flee rather than intentionally run over an agent, while also criticizing her decision to drive off in a chaotic, armed encounter. 
They condemn the use of masked, allegedly undertrained ICE agents operating in neighborhoods, saying the policy environment created an unnecessary and dangerous situation that predictably led to loss of life. The segment closes by highlighting political fallout, including criticism from Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, escalating federal enforcement actions in the Twin Cities, and broader concerns about accountability, policing standards, and immigration enforcement tactics.
Plus segments on Zionist billionaire Paul Singer making a killing over the Venezuela conflict, Marco Rubio threatening a military takeover of Greenland and Rubio's wet dream of "liberating" Cuba.
