episode Trump Reveals REAL REASON He Caved To Iran! w/ Glenn Greenwald cover

Description

Jimmy and guest Glenn Greenwald argue that President Trump effectively acknowledged economic pressure—not military success—as the primary reason for ending the conflict with Iran, pointing to the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz and concerns about global oil supplies. They contend that Iran possessed significant leverage through its ability to disrupt energy markets and potentially threaten regional oil and gas infrastructure, making a prolonged conflict economically unsustainable. Greenwald argues that Trump was misled by advisers and Israeli officials who allegedly predicted a quick collapse of the Iranian government, while underestimating Iran's military capabilities, geography, and long-term preparation for conflict. Dore concludes that Trump was "petrified of what he was about to unleash on the world," realized the war as a costly mistake and became increasingly eager to reach a settlement. Plus segments on Trump suggesting Israel lay off Lebanon and let Syria handle Hezbollah, JD Vance revealing the poison pill likely to undermine the Iran deal, the latest research into a COVID vaccine-cancer connection and the coming war between Europe and Russia. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Senator Ron Johnson and Chris Hedges!

The Real Reason U.S. Wants To Crush Cuba! w/ Christian Parenti

In this interview segment, investigative journalist Christian Parenti tells Jimmy that modern U.S. policy toward Cuba is driven less by opposition to socialism and more by Cuba's continued sovereignty and symbolic resistance to American influence, despite decades of economic liberalization. He discusses how Cuba has increasingly embraced private enterprise while U.S. sanctions and embargoes continue to intensify, limiting investment and contributing to severe economic hardship. The conversation also explores Cuba's historical conflicts with the CIA, including intelligence operations, the Bay of Pigs, and Cold War-era tensions, as factors shaping current U.S. policy. The interview concludes with a discussion of whether normalized relations are possible, the risks of escalating conflict, and broader questions about U.S. foreign policy and intelligence operations. Plus segments on Tucker Carlson going HAM on the COVID vaccine and actress Mayim Bialik's crashout after seeing a pro-Palestinian t-shirt. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!

episode Zionist Establishment MELTS DOWN Over NYC Election Results! w/ Blakeley artwork

Zionist Establishment MELTS DOWN Over NYC Election Results! w/ Blakeley

Guest host Russell Dobular and online political commentator Blakeley discuss reactions to the New York City Democratic primary, arguing that many conservative commentators and pro-Israel figures are exaggerating fears about antisemitism and socialism following the victory of a candidate they refer to as "Mom Donnie." They mock claims that New York is collapsing, highlighting strong commercial real estate leasing data and dismissing warnings of a mass exodus, while criticizing what they see as coordinated messaging from political influencers and media figures. The two argue that critics falsely conflate anti-genocide politics with antisemitism, with one sarcastically summarizing the narrative as: "One Jew beat another Jew in NYC, but because the winning Jew is against genocide, people are panicking." They conclude with Blakeley discussing the need for a more transactional relationship with politicians, emphasizing that voters should focus on policies and outcomes rather than developing emotional attachments to political figures, noting, "You're not dating these freaking people… you're using them to achieve a goal." Plus segments on the escalating feud between Candace Owens and Laura Loomer, AOC backing establishment politicians in the New York primaries and Ohio public schools telling kids to get married. Also featuring Misty Winston and Kyle Anzalone!
