The Jimmy Dore Show

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that the decision was more political than economic, although he admits that the Colbert show was not cost-effective and outdated, comparing it to Blockbuster Video and Tower Records.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. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Ryan Cristián!

During a recent speech at a Turning Point USA conference Tucker Carlson questioned the official narrative surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and criticized the taboo around discussing Israel’s possible involvement. Carlson argued that asking critical questions about intelligence agencies and foreign influence is a citizen's right and not an expression of hate or bigotry.  Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger praise Carlson for speaking candidly in front of a conservative audience and highlight the backlash faced by figures like Charlie Kirk for platforming dissenting voices. Jimmy emphasizes that loyalty should lie with American citizens—not political leaders or foreign governments—and criticizes political influencers who demand blind allegiance. Plus segments on Donald Trump’s ongoing scramble to change the topic to anything BUT Jeffrey Epstein and CBS’s cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s late night show. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! And a phone call from Elon Musk!

Jimmy criticizes the Trump administration and Senator Marco Rubio for imposing sanctions on Francesca Albanese, a UN official who reported corporate profiteering from Israel’s actions in Gaza.  He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger argue that instead of holding war criminals like Benjamin Netanyahu accountable, the U.S. targets whistleblowers who expose human rights violations, highlighting the hypocrisy of lifting sanctions on known terrorists while punishing those who defend international law. Plus segments on China and 20 other nations meeting to discuss taking action to stop the Israeli genocide in Gaza and Trump calling his devoted MAGA followers “stupid” and “weaklings” for falling for what he terms the “Epstein Hoax.” Also featuring Mike MacRae, Stef Zamorano, Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss. And a phone call from Alan Dershowitz!
