The Jimmy Dore Show

Ben Shapiro CONFRONTED Over Israel's Attack On The USS Liberty!

Reports of an intense backlash at TPUSA's AmericaFest conference were not exaggerated, as younger conservatives in particular questioned Israel policy, foreign aid, and the historical 1967 USS Liberty incident, challenging Ben Shapiro's dismissal of it as "irrelevant." Jimmy highlights a viral exchange where an attendee confronts Shapiro, argues that the attack was deliberate, and frames the issue as putting "America first" rather than prioritizing Israel. TPUSA leadership and conservative media figures have been accused of suppressing criticism of Israel, while portraying a generational shift inside the conservative movement toward skepticism of U.S.–Israel relations. Jimmy also amplifies claims from USS Liberty survivors and critics who dispute official findings, positioning the debate as part of larger infighting over Zionism, foreign policy, censorship, and influence within conservative politics. Plus segments on Megyn Kelly accusing Shapiro of amplifying antisemitism, Steve Bannon going scorched earth on Shapiro and accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson's defense team's curious ties to the Turning Point USA team. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a series of well-wishing holiday phone calls to Jimmy from George Clooney, Kash Patel, JD Vance and more!

Tim Dillon Gets Erika Kirk & TPUSA EXACTLY RIGHT! w/ Ryan Matta

In this segment Jimmy and documentary filmmaker Ryan Matta criticize TPUSA's recent AmericaFest event, highlighting Tim Dillon's commentary that Erika Kirk's flashy, Hollywood-style entrance and early endorsement of JD Vance felt staged, elitist, and disconnected from everyday people. They accuse Ben Shapiro of influencing TPUSA toward a pro-Israel direction and allege growing internal tension at the organization. Jimmy and Ryan also discuss the multiple claims and suspicious allegations surrounding Charlie Kirk's death, donor influence, and TPUSA's future, framed as a hostile takeover driven by powerful interests. Overall, the video portrays TPUSA as shifting from grassroots authenticity to a choreographed spectacle driven by wealthy donors, media manipulation, and political positioning. Plus segments on the brutal backlash CBS News head Bari Weiss faced after killing a 60 Minutes story on the Trump administration sending migrants to a notorious El Salvadoran prison, Donald Trump defending Bill Clinton against Epstein charges and TPUSA setting up a Charlie Kirk "death tent" at events for fans to take selfies. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!

Dave Chappelle UNLOADS On Bill Maher Over Saudi Arabia & Israel!

Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger react to Dave Chappelle's recent public clap-back at Bill Maher after Maher criticized Chappelle for suggesting that free speech is "better" in Saudi Arabia than in the U.S. Jimmy agrees that Chappelle's joke about Western hypocrisy and journalist deaths landed, but argues Chappelle was dodging broader criticism about comedians signing censorship contracts to perform under Saudi government speech restrictions. Jimmy and Kurt discuss whether wealthy comics like Chappelle need to take gigs that require avoiding criticism of a regime, contrasting him with Tim Dillon, who mocked the restrictions on stage and was reportedly removed from the festival. The video also dives into larger debates about credibility, power, political hypocrisy, and how comedians like Chappelle, Maher, and others navigate money, speech, and moral boundaries. Plus segments on Tucker Carlson being named Antisemite of the Year and Trump's images being retracted from a recent Epstein files release. Also featuring Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from Jeff Bridges!

Thomas Massie EVISCERATES Trump Admin For Not Releasing Full Epstein Files!

Outrage is already brewing over the Department of Justice's failure to fully release the Jeffrey Epstein files by the legally required deadline Friday, despite legislation pushed by Rep. Thomas Massie, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, and signed by Donald Trump. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanch and Pam Bondi are acccused of hiding names of powerful men allegedly tied to Epstein, while establishment figures like Chuck Schumer publicly claim they want transparency. As Jimmy points out, Massie says attorneys for victims know of at least 20 men accused of sex crimes whose names should appear, warning that if they don't, the DOJ clearly withheld evidence. He frames this as bipartisan theater and a deep-state style cover-up protecting elites, corporations, intelligence networks, and political power centers rather than victims. Plus segments on Australia's crackdown on free speech after the Bondi Beach attack, Tucker Carlson's expert clapback at Ben Shapiro and Erika Kirk's latest lie. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Kash Patel!

Candace BREAKS SILENCE On Blockbuster Meeting w/ Erika Kirk!

Candace Owens has shared her account of the much-ballyhooed four-and-a-half-hour meeting with Erica Kirk and her lawyer, and Owens says she was not convinced by Turning Point USA's confidence that Tyler Robinson was the shooter in Charlie Kirk's assassination. Owens says the lawyer admitted there is no evidence beyond what the public has already seen and that investigators have not even interviewed key eyewitnesses whose testimony could challenge the official narrative. She argues that TPUSA and allied commentators are gaslighting the public by overstating the strength of the case while dismissing questions about inconsistencies, including eyewitness accounts, ballistics issues, and unexplored leads. Owens concludes she has not changed her position, will continue investigating TPUSA figures she finds suspicious, and believes the authorities are failing to seriously pursue alternative explanations for what happened. Plus segments on Tim Pool contradicting himself in statements about Candace Owens' security, Trump openly admitting he is bought by the Israel lobby and Erika Kirk getting caught in a lie about Egyptian planes. Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
