1. Introduction to the Mid-Air Incident

Jimmy Dore recounts a terrifying experience aboard Southwest Airlines Flight 1496 from Burbank, California, to Las Vegas. At approximately [08:43], Jimmy describes the onset of severe turbulence that escalated into what felt like a freefall.

"We were in freefall. And I was like, oh, I better get that passport." – Jimmy Dore [10:42]

He explains how the plane experienced sudden drops, leading to a sensation of weightlessness akin to being in space. The turbulence was so intense that passengers, especially those not wearing seatbelts tightly, were thrown from their seats.

"The women in front of us went out of their seats, hit their heads on the thing." – Jimmy Dore [10:43]

---

2. Interaction with the Flight Crew

During the chaos, Jimmy observed the pilot's delayed response. It took several minutes before the pilot addressed the cabin, apologizing for the incident and explaining that the collision avoidance system had been triggered to prevent a potential mid-air collision.

"The pilot comes out and says, 'Hey, I'm sorry about that. My collision avoidance system warned us, and I had to take aggressive action to avoid another plane.'" – Jimmy Dore [12:19]

Jimmy critiques the pilot's communication, expressing frustration that the pilot did not provide a more reassuring explanation.

---

3. Aftermath and Media Coverage

Upon landing in Las Vegas, the incident was publicized by various media outlets, including NBC and the Daily Mail. Despite the severity of the event, only minor injuries were reported, with two flight attendants receiving ice packs for disorientation.

"Southwest says it landed uneventfully. It's the latest close call in the skies." – Jimmy Dore [19:14]

Jimmy highlights the lack of direct communication from Southwest Airlines to passengers post-incident, indicating a disconnect between the airline and those affected.

4. Political Discussions: Censorship and Anti-Semitism

Transitioning from his personal ordeal, Jimmy Dore and co-host Kurt Metzger delve into a heated discussion about the "Stop Hate Act" supported by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). They critique the legislation for its broad definitions of hate speech, arguing that it enables excessive censorship.

"Social media companies can no longer hide the crimes that take place on their platforms, especially when they pose a threat to America's national security." – J.D. Vance [28:23]

Jimmy asserts that the bill unfairly targets criticism of Israel, equating legitimate discourse with anti-Semitism. He voices concern over the potential for the government to fine social media platforms exorbitantly if they fail to comply with the Act's stringent requirements.

"If you hate hate speech, too bad. You have to live with it." – Jimmy Dore [33:36]

---

5. Critique of Media Figures: Stephen Colbert

Jimmy shifts focus to media personalities, specifically targeting Stephen Colbert for perceived hypocrisy. He references a sketch where Colbert mocked Big Pharma's vaccine response before Biden's presidency and then juxtaposes it with Colbert's subsequent promotion of the vaccine post-inauguration.

"Stephen Colbert is one of the most partisan, shameless shills that America has ever seen." – Jimmy Dore [47:40]

Jimmy condemns Colbert for what he views as a betrayal of comedic integrity, suggesting that Colbert now serves as a mouthpiece for establishment narratives rather than maintaining his satirical stance.

---

6. Concluding Remarks

In the latter part of the episode, the conversation circles back to Jimmy's personal experiences post-incident, including his attempts to process the trauma. He discusses attending shows like "The Sphere" and recognizes signs of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

"I have a little Post Traumatic Stress disorder because I can't even enjoy this movie in this big IMAX kind of thing." – Jimmy Dore [22:28]

Jimmy emphasizes the lasting impact of the near-collision on his well-being, revealing a vulnerable side to the otherwise outspoken host.

Notable Quotes

• "Congress is adjourning for the summer to prevent a vote to force the release of information pertaining to the Epstein case." – Jimmy Dore [02:24]

• "We're riding shotgun." – J.D. Vance [07:33]

• "You're not allowed to hate stuff. You're not allowed to hate Zionism or Israel or genocide or any of that stuff or their control of our government." – Jimmy Dore [28:23]

• "Stephen Colbert is a good altar boy." – Kurt Metzger [50:46]

[J.D. Vance]

Hey, what's up, dude? It's J.D. van.

[Jimmy Dore]

Mr. Vice President. It's going on in Washington these days?

[J.D. Vance]

Oh, not much. Same old thing really. People just doing political stuff. Typical politics things. Nothing really to report. I mean, pretty slow summer, I think.

[Jimmy Dore]

How so?

[J.D. Vance]

Congress is going home for a while or. That's what I heard. Taking a five week recess. Just. Just a rest, really. Kind of a Congress nap.

[Jimmy Dore]

Why is it doing that?

[J.D. Vance]

I don't know. I guess they're tired. Hey Jimmy, did you see the Martin Luther King files that got released? There's some pretty crazy stuff in there. Did you see that James Earl Ray had a brother? That's crazy.

[Jimmy Dore]

No, that's not crazy. Why can't you admit. Why can't you admit that Congress is adjourning for the summer to prevent a vote to force the release of information pertaining to the Epstein case?

[J.D. Vance]

Because I don't want to. Because we're just avoiding talking about that.

[Jimmy Dore]

But that is true, right?

[J.D. Vance]

Oh, for sure. Totally.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah.

[J.D. Vance]

No, Trump told Mike Johnson to disband Congress like fucking Charles the First. And Mike Johnson did it because he's spineless and afraid of Trump and I think romantically attracted to him on some level. But that's story for another day.

[Jimmy Dore]

Okay? All right. Look forward to that day.

[J.D. Vance]

Just a few days ago, Johnson said, you know, we think all the information should come out, the people should know, and then a few days later, sends Congress home to prevent them from doing that. It's a clown show, dude. It's a total circus. Honk, honk. We're the government.

[Jimmy Dore]

Well, I. I appreciate your honesty, I guess.

[J.D. Vance]

Jimmy, since it's you, I'm going to level with you. Give you the straight dope. I'm not going to give you the spiel I gave Tim. Dillon. Put enough barbecue sauce on it, he'll eat anything up.

[Jimmy Dore]

All right, come on, J.D. that's a fact that. Well, look at. So why. Why this scramble to prevent this information from being released?

[J.D. Vance]

Because there's shit in there that will bring down the entire government, that's why. Stuff that would ruin Trump. Take it from me, he is shocked that all of all the campaign promises he made that this is the only one people are holding him to. Why this one? God damn it. I just figured they knew I was lying about this one for sure. I mean, come on.

[Jimmy Dore]

So what's he gonna do?

[J.D. Vance]

Well, apparently, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but the idea is to cut a deal with Ghislaine Maxwell, and then she testifies for Congress that Trump had nothing to do with their operations, and then she gets a full pardon. Problem solved.

[Jimmy Dore]

How do you think that that will be received among maga who made Epstein one of their top issues?

[J.D. Vance]

Not good, that's my guess. Although, who knows? Maybe after Trump makes it all about himself and then frees the only person actually serving jail time for Epstein's crimes, they'll say, well, that about wraps it all up. We're satisfied. No questions, no notes. Also, who knows? My fucking balls might learn to talk on their own and start doing Abbott and Costello routines.

[Jimmy Dore]

Both seem unlikely.

[J.D. Vance]

Agreed. All this is leading to a massive political cataclysm of some kind that will inevitably lead to. To some electoral damage in 2026. So I'm doing the smartest thing I can do, which is stay as far from the Epstein shit as I can and just look awesome in contrast.

[Jimmy Dore]

Oh, yeah? How so?

[J.D. Vance]

I'll tell you how so, Jimmy. Okay, Remember how I'm also the finance chair for the rnc, as well as Vice president?

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah, and that's insane.

[J.D. Vance]

Bananas, but it's true. Well, the other day, my wife Usha and I flew to Nantucket. Already? Awesome. Sounds fancy. Dirty limericks. To host a fundraiser for the RNC. We raised $3 million in one night from these rich ass people. Massive win, dude.

[Jimmy Dore]

Good job.

[J.D. Vance]

But the headline in the Media was I show up to find a protest against me? Oh, no. J.D. vance got protested in Nantucket. Well, who was protesting? These people were in an Instagram group called Cats on the Couch for Cat Lovers. And this event was called Meow Tuck it. That's what they came up with. They voted on that and everything.

[Jimmy Dore]

Wow.

[J.D. Vance]

So, yeah, say there's a guy who flies on a private jet to Cape Cod with his hot ass wife, gets rich people to give him $3 million just cuz. And these people don't like them are a bunch of childless losers who spend all their time on Instagram looking at cats and crying really hard for reasons they don't fully understand. I'd say this is a pretty awesome dude.

[Jimmy Dore]

I'd have to agree.

[J.D. Vance]

And they had these big posters of that fake photoshopped image of me, you know, where I look all distorted. And it went viral. You know what I mean?

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah, yeah, of course.

[J.D. Vance]

Okay. Even that. It's like, thanks for pointing out what I don't look like. Like they made me bald in that photo, which only underscores the fact that I have thick, luxurious head of hair. Dang. Sick burn. Hey, jerk face. Here's a picture of you if you were weird and ugly looking, which we had to conjure up digitally because you were not, in fact, weird and ugly looking. Oh, man, you got me. I'll never recover.

[Jimmy Dore]

Good point, J.D.

[J.D. Vance]

Anyway, this is how I keep my head above water. This contrast here. The people who hate me are cat losers. Don't even know how to make fun of someone properly. The people who hate who are angry at Donald Trump right now are people who hate hate pedophilia. Jimmy, as you know, you're only as awesome as your haters are lame. And right now, I'm riding shotgun.

[Jimmy Dore]

Ain't that the truth?

[J.D. Vance]

Boom. All right, dude, keep it real. Tell your haters to suck it. I'm gonna go back on the road and see if I can't get more millions of dollars. That's some baller ass right there.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah.

[J.D. Vance]

I love being around all this money dude. Changing me and who I am as a person. And I love it. Usha tells me she doesn't recognize me anymore, and I say I can buy a new wife. Okay, that probably revealed too much. Okay, back to awesome mode. Later, dude.

[Jimmy Dore]

Okay, later. Establishment media sucks.

[Kurt Metzger]

August lighting.

[Jimmy Dore]

So good luck. Bullshit. We can't afford fomenting this.

[J.D. Vance]

Watch and see as his jack off.

[Jimmy Dore]

The medium speeds and jumps the medium and hits them head on. It's the chimney door show, so I Didn't. I didn't go all the way up and hit my head. I did float. And the. The women in front of us, they went out of their seats, hit their head on the thing. I went to Las Vegas to see David Blaine and Shin Lin. I like magic.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Dore]

And I know that's not cool. It's not hip to say that you like magic. I like magic. And I like impressionists.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Dore]

I'm about. See, I know it's not cool to say those things. I like them, but. So on our flight out. On our flight out from Burbank Airport to Las Vegas, we're flying southwest, and people like, why are you flying southwest? Because they have a direct flight. Why wouldn't I fly southwest? You think they're worse than anybody else. But here we are. We had a. We had a Nair hit. Wow. We almost smashed into another plane. So I'm on the plane. This is the Daily Mail. They put. This is. This is our. Their coverage of it. They have. So Steph did a little video. And what happened was we're climbing. We get just above 10,000ft, and all of a sudden, it was like, we were in freefall. So we were.

[Kurt Metzger]

Katy Perry, Gil King.

[Jimmy Dore]

We were in freefall. And then it stopped for about four seconds, and I was like, wow, that was a big bump. I thought it was because of the heat. And there was an air pocket or something, and we just dipped. And then we dipped again. And it lasted a while. It was. It was what they call. I think. I think it's called zero G. So you know how when you see guys in the space capsule and they're floating around? Well, that's what was happening. Everything was just floating. My. I had my passport. That's my real id, in this pocket right here of this shirt. No, it was a different shirt. Anyway. And it. All of a sudden, I see it floating in front of me.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Dore]

And I'm like, oh, I better get that. Grab it. And it was. It was at least 6 seconds. I heard another guy say it was 10 seconds. It seemed like forever. Like, oh. And the women in front of us, they didn't have their seatbelts on. I had mine on, but I have it on loose. So I didn't. I didn't go all the way up and hit my head. I did float. And the women in front of us, they went out of their seats, hit their head on the thing. And two of the flight attendants were just about to do a drink service. Why did they. Why do you have to have. It's a 40 minute flight literally from Burbank to Las Vegas. They got to give you a cup of water. Why can't everybody just sit down? Stop it. Why do they have alcohol?

[Kurt Metzger]

For my next flight.

[Jimmy Dore]

What is Stories? I don't know. It's like, what is. So anyway, they. This is the video that Daily Mail had. Steph had given permission for them to use. Here it is. You want to see? It turns out that turbulence was taking an aggressive move because there was another.

[J.D. Vance]

Plane coming at us.

[Jimmy Dore]

That's what it was. Collision avoidance. Steph gets it in. She gets the joke in. We're driving home. We didn't. We took another plane home because we're crazy.

[Kurt Metzger]

So wait, wait, don't bury the lead. What genders were the pilots?

[Jimmy Dore]

So after this thing happened and everybody's shaking, I thought, you know, who knew what was going to happen? The pilot comes out and said, and it took forever, it felt forever for the pilot to come. At least a couple of minutes for the pilot to come on. I'm sure he had to. Was screaming at aircraft for control and he comes out and says, hey, I'm sorry about that. What happened was my traffic avoidance, my collision avoidance system warning went off and I had to take an aggressive mood to move to avoid another plane. And I was like, are you kidding me? So here's how NPR data from the live flight tracking website Flight Writer shows that Southwest Boeing 7 made. Made its ascent just before noon on Friday at the same time in the same airspace, a decommissioned Hawker Hunter. So this is. These are defense contractors and they're flying these planes from the 50s. I don't know why. I guess they're training somebody that they're, they're training military people. I don't know why they're there, but that's what. And so they were going, okay, so the Flight Raider radar shows that the flight dropped from 14,100ft to 13,600ft.

[Kurt Metzger]

That's like astronauts.

[Jimmy Dore]

So that, that's at least 500ft. I saw other reports that we flew, we dropped 700ft. I mean, it was just bam. And you were at zero G and you were floating like you're an astronaut in a capsule. That's what it was like. And people were, I was freaked out. The woman behind us kept saying, oh, my God, oh my God, oh my God. And she was saying, exactly. She was screaming what we all felt. And she, we could hear her. And the guy right beside me, he grabbed my arm while it was happening. I was in the middle seat. He grabbed my arm. And then he looked at me after. He goes, oh, I'm so sorry. I'm like, oh, we're in it together. Forget it. And the woman behind us yells, I want to get off. Which I thought was funny. She said, I want to get off. Oh, okay. All right, sure. We'll just stop the. Pull up next to the ladder, that 14,000 foot ladder, and we'll let you out.

[Kurt Metzger]

Speak it, Manifest it by speaking your truth.

[Jimmy Dore]

So. So this guy tweeted out, John Weissman. He said, he. He said your crew did what they were supposed to do and so your aircraft didn't get dangerously close to another. So he found this thing that tracks. It shows you. Show you what the flight did. This is what it's supposed to show you. Anyway, so here's my flight that I'm on. And then all of a sudden, here's ass swipe coming out of here. And we're gonna hit. We're about to hit. And then all of a sudden, my bike. So that's when he. He does the dive he did. It was two dives. It was one dive and then another really more aggressive dive. And so that's it. You want to see it again? I'll show it to you one more time. It was scarier than you think. And when terrifying and when the pilot comes on and he said, hey, it was my collision avoidance. We almost hit another plane. I would, I would rather he not said that and just said, yeah, we hit a pocket of air. That happens very rarely. We're fine now. And then when we landed, he would have said, hey, guess what? We almost smashed. Don't tell me while I'm up there. It was the longest 25 minutes to land in Las Vegas I'd ever experienced. It was very long. It was forever. We were. And I actually, you know, you go and you're in shock. Everybody was like, in shock. We're giggling, we're relieved, but we cannot wait to land.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yep. Makes you high. So did you ever get your water?

[Jimmy Dore]

We did not. So here's how. NBC. So everybody called me. NBC, cnn, CBS Morning show. On Saturday, the NPR everybody, Chris Cuomo called me three times. Not. Not himself personally, but his producer. We want you to come on the show. And I said, I said that was the only one I entertained going on because I would. I wanted to punk him. You know, I was going to say something like, hey, Chris, whatever. How come you got away with pretending you were hiding in your basement during COVID That you made all that shit up?

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Dore]

But I was like, I Don't want to do that. I didn't feel like doing that. I don't want to punk him.

[Kurt Metzger]

I mean I'd be killed again on a plane by a Lockheed Martin defense drone. Listen, however Jimmy goes, it was murder, everyone. Well for me, even if I die because of my own bad habits, know that I was murdered and it is a conspiracy.

[Jimmy Dore]

And so I just didn't do any, I didn't do any of the interviews. My, my, I have a PR guy now I'm working with to help promote the special that's going to come out either. I, hopefully it comes out this weekend but uh, we're still waiting to hear final word whether Rumble is gonna make it an exclusive to their viewers and if they are or not, I hope they do because then it'll help me recoup some of the costs. I had to fight self finance this special. Anyway, here's what and by the way and I'll see you this Sunday in Oxnard, by the way at the comedy club in Oxnard, California. Levity Live. Go to Jimmy Doe.com and then we're gonna be in Canada, we're gonna be in Calgary, will be in Edmonton, we'll be in Vancouver. Go to jimmy dore.com for a link for those tickets. Here's how NBC covered it. Tom.

[J.D. Vance]

This happened at 14,000ft as the Southwest plane was climbing out of the Burbank.

[Jimmy Dore]

Airport headed for Las Vegas.

[J.D. Vance]

A source with knowledge of the events.

[Jimmy Dore]

As a Hawker Hunter, a vintage British fighter plane came a Hawker Tua. That's what I keep thinking every time I hear him say that it was a Hawker Tua. She's got an airline now. That's what I thought anyway. Dangerously close to the Southwest plane setting off collision warnings and forcing Southwest to take evasive action.

[J.D. Vance]

Tonight a pilot forced to make a.

[Jimmy Dore]

Dramatic dive mid air to avoid a potential collision with another plane. I've never felt anything like that. And I turned to the people that I was flying with and I was like, I don't want to die. I was terrified. I thought this was it. So that's what they wanted me to do. They wanted me to do like these interviews and tell them that I was scared and whatever happened and, and I was just like, you know what, I'm going to take a nap. And I went and I took a nap and they said, can you do it later? And I was like, no, I'm not doing this. And then I just hung out in Vegas. We went to dinner that night at Sinatra's at the Wynn. But this is how I go out.

[J.D. Vance]

It happened on Southwest Airlines Flight 1496.

[Jimmy Dore]

From Burbank, Southern Cal, to Las Vegas. Southwest says its pilots got two TCAS alerts, terrain collision avoidance systems, serious warnings that they could soon collide with another plane and must change their flight path immediately. The pilots climbed, then descended. According to the airline, Steve Ulawes was on board. That there was this large drop. I want to say it lasted for 8 to 10 seconds. Just complete free fall. Was like, out of my seat, body out of my seat. People were screaming. Just felt like pandemonium.

[J.D. Vance]

Two flight attendants are being treated for injuries.

[Jimmy Dore]

Ulasewicz says he saw one of them. She looked disoriented. Her hair was kind of all of a mess. She had an ice pack and they sat her down at the front and gave her an ice pack. No passengers injured. The flight continued on to Vegas, where Southwest says it landed uneventfully. It's the latest close call in the skies.

[J.D. Vance]

Just last weekend, this video from the.

[Jimmy Dore]

North Dakota State Fair captured a Delta regional jet banking and diving to avoid an Air Force B52.

[J.D. Vance]

And on Monday, an Aeromexico plane landing.

[Jimmy Dore]

In Mexico City narrowly avoided a collision with a Delta flight cleared to take off from the same Runway. Tonight. Ulasewicz says he's just happy he's safely on the ground. Tom joins us again live. Tom, quite the moment when that plane landed in Las Vegas.

[J.D. Vance]

Yeah, that's right.

[Jimmy Dore]

We're told the passengers all applauded the.

[J.D. Vance]

Fact that they were on the ground safely and applauded the pilots who came.

[Jimmy Dore]

Out of the cockpit.

[J.D. Vance]

And the pilots then were shaking the.

[Jimmy Dore]

Hands of the passengers as the passengers thanked them. The faa. Yeah, I didn't see the guy shaking any hands. He was standing there. The pilot was standing there. And, you know, what are you gonna say? Hey, thanks, thanks for, you know, I'm glad you avoided it. We did. I just wanted to get off there. And so we did, by the way, tells us it is investigating time. It's investigating. And so guess what? Southwest contacted us to make sure. Oh, wait, they didn't, they didn't contact anybody. Southwest, nobody. Isn't that something? They, they didn't, they didn't contact anybody. Nothing. And so, and so the Hawker to a plane is now blaming air traffic control. Of course they're going to blame air traffic control. Of course they're going to do that. You know, one thing, one article that I read said that Hawker Hunter jet pilots, there's usually just one in that particular plane, only one pilot. And one article I Read, they said that the Hawker Hunter pilots were saying that it's the controller's fault. And I'm like, pilots? So were there more than one pilot in that Hawker Hunter? Right. Did somebody. Are there more Hawker Hunter planes that were in that vicinity? That's what I think. I'm trying to figure out why that was described as Hawker Hunter pilots stated that it was ground control's fault. And I wanted to know, come on, why are those Hawker Hunter pilots doing something? What are they doing? Flying? What's going on? What kind of training is happening? Why do you need to do training in a commercial air zone? And somebody was saying, oh, they can fly anywhere that they want.

[Kurt Metzger]

Hey, maybe they feel the need for speed. You saw a Top Gun?

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah, I saw it. So anyway, it was very harrowing. And to think that I. Wow. Just to experience that kind of weightlessness and that kind of. I mean, it's the worst. Think of the worst turbulence you've ever been in. It was way worse. Well, you know what's weird, Jimmy, is I actually felt closer to Lauren Sanchez at that moment.

[Kurt Metzger]

I think we all are thinking about them right now in light of this because that's basically their bravery, what they went through. They didn't thank the pilot either.

[Jimmy Dore]

No. So anyway, so that's what happened. And it was scary as hell. We didn't get. Southwest has not contacted anybody.

[J.D. Vance]

And.

[Jimmy Dore]

And I don't know if it's traumatized. I feel traumatized. Honest to God I do. So we went to the Sphere. The next day we went to the Sphere. And the Sphere has this great show. What is it? Postcards from Earth or something like that. And. But there's an interactive moment where the chair shake. The chairs shake and it feels like you're floating. Maybe I would have enjoyed it. Yeah, it felt like I was going to fall over a mountain. And I was like, oh, my God. It really repressed memory. And anyway, and it was. Yeah, it kind of. I'm like, oh, I think I do have PTSD a little bit. I have a little Post Traumatic Stress disorder because I can't even enjoy this movie in this. Like, it's a big IMAX kind of a thing. And it makes you feel like you might fall. Like.

[Kurt Metzger]

Ah, yeah, yeah, no, that's not good. Do you know, that same day when I got that text, a guy jumped over the fence of my backyard. I don't know if he thought nobody lived here because it looks crazy, but I didn't chase him out with my Glock. And it was quite dramatic as well, and then I had to call the cops. Fucking nuts, dude.

[Jimmy Dore]

You had. You have. You have a firearm.

[Kurt Metzger]

Oh, yeah. The cop said you should get one because it's it, you know.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah, I got you. All right, well, I'm glad that that sounds like a separate segment. I don't know why you're jamming that in this segment, but same day, you think it's always the same day.

[Kurt Metzger]

Military sends a drone to get Jimmy Dore. Then the hobo jumps my fence. Yeah, maybe he just on fenton meth, but I don't know.

You're not allowed to hate Zionism or Israel or genocide or any of that stuff or their control of our government. They're not you're not allowed to hate that. That's called hate speech. So the censors are at it again. And of course it's the adl, which is the American Defamation League. Right. Or Anti Defamation League. And so basically they're the, they're ironically named because what they do is they defame other. Every, anybody who tells the truth about Israel, they defame them and call them an anti Semite. So the Anti Defamation League is actually the Pro Defamation League. And they're like the boy who cried wolf and they've wrecked the word they that the term anti Semitism is more burned out than Gary Busey at Burning Man. Okay? And here's it is APAC funded reps. So Josh, a Democrat from New Jersey, he's an APAC tool. And Don Bacon, a Republican from New England or Nebraska introduced adl Beck. Stop the hate. That's what it's called. Stop the Hate Act. And if anybody knows apac, their hatred of hatred is world renowned. In fact, they'll start World War Three to stop hatred. They'll assassinate hateful people with impunity and take out their entire family just to play it safe. That's how much they hate hate.

[Kurt Metzger]

They'll kill their kids to stop hate.

[Jimmy Dore]

And so every day social media company. So they're going to pass this bill Stop Hate act to censor the Internet and suppress anti Semitism. Every day social media companies fail to comply with their demands will result in a $5 million fine. So. So this is $5 million fine to a media company that doesn't follow the rules set by apec. I'm not saying, I'm not saying that this is going to backfire epically, but I would not want to be the people who made this legislation for the foreseeable future. Here it is. You want to hear them? Yes. Bipartisan legislation will require social media companies to release detailed public reports of violations of their terms of service and to outline how they're addressing these violations, which includes the use of their platforms by terrorist groups. Everyday companies don't. The use of their platforms by terrorist groups. Is it the idf, a terrorist group? Aren't they committing a genocide right now? Is that not terrorism? What so terrorist groups is and also AKA people we don't like.

[Kurt Metzger]

Al Qaeda is okay though, right?

[Jimmy Dore]

Al Qaeda right at the head of Al Qaeda in Syria is now the head of Syria. And Trump loves him. So he's. He got taken off that terrorism list. You know, they put on that terrorism list the, the rap and tour for Israel from the UN The Woman who told you the truth about the genocide and the starvation that's happening, she's now terrorist. But the head of Al Qaeda is not a terrorist. Let that sink in for a while. And so now this is the adl, this is apec. This is your Israeli overlords going to fine your media companies $5 million for not censoring you.

[Kurt Metzger]

And the irony of having a guy named Bacon in on it.

[Jimmy Dore]

Support this information.

[J.D. Vance]

It will result in a 5 million dollar fine.

[Jimmy Dore]

Social media companies can no longer hide the crimes that take place on their platforms, especially when they pose a threat to America's national security. And we're very proud this bill has the backing of the Anti Defamation League. I saw anti Semitism for the first.

[Kurt Metzger]

Time when I was 15 years old.

[J.D. Vance]

I had good parents who taught me it was wrong and.

[Jimmy Dore]

But it left a lasting impression.

[Kurt Metzger]

I see my first incident.

[Jimmy Dore]

So his parents taught him anti Semitism is wrong, just not genocide. Isn't that weird? That's weird. That's a.

[Kurt Metzger]

They also didn't tell him what it means.

[Jimmy Dore]

I guess they could include Arabs.

[Kurt Metzger]

By the way, the word includes Arabs. I can't believe it's used the way it's used as a teenager.

[Jimmy Dore]

And if you're on my social media, you see it every day from people.

[J.D. Vance]

That are responding back with what I.

[Jimmy Dore]

Consider squarely anti Semitic kind of messages on social media.

[J.D. Vance]

I even saw a article today.

[Jimmy Dore]

It was about me but talking about we have opposed congressmen who are pro Zionists.

[J.D. Vance]

Right.

[Jimmy Dore]

And you're like, in other words, it's all over our social media and it's unacceptable. And you know people, people having thoughts that we don't like is unacceptable. That's what he's saying. You're not allowed to hate stuff. You're not allowed to hate Zionism or Israel or genocide or any of that stuff or their control of our government. They're not. You're not allowed to hate that. That's called hate speech.

[Kurt Metzger]

When the Jews that aren't happy with Zionism, I'm waiting to see how they handle that. I guess they'll be thrown in the.

[Jimmy Dore]

Lot with the terrorists and it looks a little more.

[J.D. Vance]

And what do.

[Jimmy Dore]

I saw the protests out here the last two days. They were vile, right?

[J.D. Vance]

They were.

[Jimmy Dore]

The protests were vile. Yeah. Guess what that's called freedom of speech. That's the whole point of freedom of speech and includes speech that is vile. That's the beauty of America. And if you don't like that we have freedom of speech here, you should go to North Korea or go to Saudi Arabia, go someplace else that doesn't have freedom of speech. Get the hell out of my country. That, yeah, it's like, oh yeah, I'm all for freedom of speech until, you know, until you say something I don't like that I'm, you know, not so much then. Not so much.

[Kurt Metzger]

I think Saudi Arabia lets you tweet about Zionism, though.

[Jimmy Dore]

I bet they would. You can see the anti Semitism in their comments and how they, how they were treating some of our members of.

[Kurt Metzger]

Congress who are Jewish. I saw that firsthand.

[Jimmy Dore]

It's unacceptable. And so we want to be in a country that makes clear that you know what's unacceptable? Censorship of people's hatred. People get to hate shit. And if you don't like what they're saying, don't listen.

[Kurt Metzger]

Majority spending their taxes on Israel, whether they like it or not. So for my money, I don't get to say whatever I want. That's interesting.

[Jimmy Dore]

That's just weird that you're not allowed. So any protest, by the way, of, of Israel is anti Semitic. And why are people. I'm not anti Semitic. I, I have lots of all the Jews I know pretty much. I like. I'm not anti them because if I'm anti someone, it's not because they're Jewish. I'm anti them because of their. In supporting a genocide.

[Kurt Metzger]

That would be why if you don't like Jewish. It's very similar to saying it's okay to kill kids because they're Arab. It doesn't work like that. They purposely conflate Zionism. And they had. What was that resolution they had in Congress to say it's the same thing. The reason they had that is so this idiot, this Nebraska dipshit closet case can stand here and go, somebody said I don't like. He gives no examples of any anti Semitism except someone against Zionism, which is not Judaism.

[Jimmy Dore]

And I, hey, I, I think you're allowed to hate stuff. You're allowed to be a vile person. I think you should be, you know, you should be. This whole anti hate speech stuff is just anti speech. This is that it's the speech you hate that needs protecting. It's not the speech you like. So if you, if you hate hate speech, too bad. You have to live with it. That's how I feel. And someone gets to be an anti Semite. You get to be whatever you want you don't get. I don't want the government fighting me for thoughts because that's all that is.

[Kurt Metzger]

Is thought crimes you think this will pass? It's pretty egregiously against the First Amendment. I mean, like, how would they get it passed all the way through?

[Jimmy Dore]

What? I don't know if you can tell in this video. These guys are scared because social media is over the target and the recipients have lost all grace and intelligence and are now just acting like animals barking at anything that moves. Now that's what this is, because they know social media's got. They can control the corporate media, they can control Wolf Blitzer and Chris Hayes and all of them. They can control Sean Hannity, Rachel Maddow, Anderson Cooper. They're all controlled. Chris Cuomo, they're all controlled. But they can't control social media. And that's what this is about. This is about just what you said before, Kurt, when, when Hillary Clinton said we've got to start censoring or we're going to lose complete control. And that's what this is. That's what, this is their, this is the fear. These guys are afraid and they're acting at the behest of their APEC donors. This is Israel panicking. This is the Zionist panicking.

[Kurt Metzger]

And look at this creep, by the way, Bacon with his dumb story. Nebraska. Did you say home of the Franklin scandal? Well, that's telling.

[Jimmy Dore]

And you still screaming about anti Semitism and defending Zionism. Makes you look like a piece of it to the world. Cuz you are.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah. Hey, how about the Epstein files? Is that. Hate to bring that up, you guy from the Nebraska Franklin scandal state.

[Jimmy Dore]

Here's what Glenn Greenwald says. He says there was a full consensus on the right for the last decade that big tech censorship was a great evil, especially if pressured and demanded by the US Government. That was a tenet of the right. All that changed when it came time to censor for Israel. We're very proud the bill has the backing of the adl. That's what they're saying. So these people who for the last decade they were all against. The worst thing in the world was censorship online, especially if it was pressured to by. To be censored by the government. And now they're just, there's. They're proud of it. So whatever. So again, most of the MAGA people that I come in contact with are not on board for this stuff. Most of the MAGA people are not on board for the Israel projects. They're not on board for Zionism. They're against the genocide and they're against Trump and the administration and our government being cucks to the APAC lobby. That they are. And Benjamin Netanyahu. So that's most of the people I know, most of the MAGA people.

[Kurt Metzger]

So can I not get away with calling him Bilbo? Not a Jew. Who anymore? Is that what this bill means?

[Jimmy Dore]

I think. I think that's what this bill means. Well, what they would do is they'll. If they don't censor you and kick you off their plate like Twitter, then you're going to get a $5 million fine. That's what they want to have happen. Not you, but the social media platform.

[Kurt Metzger]

So they're trying to collect it on that.

[Jimmy Dore]

So the bill would mandate that social media companies work with the federal government to implement moderation policies that curb the speech of groups the government designates as terrorists. So that's all. Again, all they have to do is say. They'll say. They'll say you're an. You're. The biggest terrorist groups in the world are environmental groups. They call it echo terrorism.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Dore]

So that's what they. They arrested the lady from Democracy Now. They said she was an echo terrorist. Right. Because she was out there protesting against the pipeline, a pipeline going through Native American land. And so they just said they're all. They're all echo terrorists. And then they don't get any rights. You can lock them up for all you want. They don't have to do it. If they call you a terrorist, then you don't get habeas corpus. You get. They can give you indefinite detention, meaning they don't have to charge you with a crime. That's what's. That's the world we live in now. That's what indefinite detention means. They'd be required to provide regular reports to the US Attorney General. Those that don't comply would be fined $5 million each day that they refuse. Bacon the guy. What a great name for this pig. We want to be in a country that makes clear that anti Semitism or any kind of racism is repugnant, unacceptable, not allowed in an online space, and that we have zero tolerance for it. I agree with half of it. That anti Semitism or racism. That they are repugnant, but they shouldn't be censored.

[Kurt Metzger]

Because who gets Space means a lot of things.

[Jimmy Dore]

Who gets to decide? Who gets to decide what's anti Semitic? Who gets to decide what's racist? Who gets to decide. Now, are jokes going to be censored? The whole. So again, you don't. You're going to appoint a board to decide what is. You know, it's going to be the ADL or maybe Dave Portnoy. However, other statements from the lawmakers make clear that their definition of anti Semitism goes far beyond expression of hatred or calls for violence against Jewish people. No kidding. As Matthew Petty wrote for the libertarian magazine Reason, the specific idea that Bacon had in mind was anti Semitism, and he made clear that it includes criticism of the state of Israel. That's anti Semitic. So now they can censor you. At the press conference, Bacon explicitly referred referenced recent protests against Israel's policy of starvation in Gaza. That's the problem, not the starvation in Gaza. Yeah, I saw protests out here the last two days that were vile. Right. He said they were. You can see the anti Semitism in their comments and how they were treating some of our members of Congress who. Who are Jewish. I saw that firsthand. So. So live with it.

[Kurt Metzger]

Are you going to read the comments? No. You're just going to say you saw some comments? I'm supposed to believe you?

[Jimmy Dore]

I think the current definition of anti Semitism includes not having personally killed a Palestinian. Yeah, I haven't killed a Palestinian. Well, you're an anti Semite, Bacon. He also suggested that merely stating opposition to pro Israel congresspeople, including himself, constitutes antisemitism. Do you see what's happening? This is like what the left was doing for the last 10 years on steroids. I even saw an article today was about me. But. But talking about we have to oppose congressmen who are pro Zionists. Right. It's all over our social media and it's unacceptable. No, no, that's acceptable. It's very acceptable.

[Kurt Metzger]

Opposing this congressman is what made him realize he had to act immediately. Is that what he literally just said? Exactly.

[Jimmy Dore]

So there's going to be a list of things on the tombstone of Zionism, and one of them is going to be hyperbole, because that's what this is. When you say that criticizing someone's Israeli policy is anti Semitic, that is unbelievable hyperbole.

[Kurt Metzger]

And Bacon, I'm going to say way worse things about you very shortly on social media. Don't get, you know, pace yourself getting upset.

[Jimmy Dore]

The two congressmen were also at the forefront of calls for the US Government to ban TikTok, which Gauthamer said was being used by the Chinese Communist Party to boost anti Israel and pro Hamas videos in the United States. They don't want you being able to have free speech. They don't want you to be able to say what you want to say. That's all this is. This is control. These are thought crimes. You're allowed to hate shit. You can hate whatever you want. You're allowed to be a racist in America. We're going to start putting people in jail because you say they're racist. They would also have introduced legislation that would criminalize efforts to boycott Israel products. Greenblatt, who spoke alongside the two legislators on Wednesday, has explicitly said that anti Zionism is anti Semitism. No, it's not.

[Kurt Metzger]

It explicitly is not.

[Jimmy Dore]

It explicitly is not exactly right.

[Kurt Metzger]

You know, what a scumbag group, ADL from its inception, what an evil group it is. It was to cover up for some scumbag child molester that they pretend was innocent and he was not. And that's not why it's called the innocent, so called the Innocence Project, called anti defamation because they're saying this guy, this guy basically framed a lower black employee like a janitor for the crime he did. And a coalition in the deep south of black and white people hung the guy that's in back in segregation times. That's how scummy the guy. So his very rich family formed this organization, which is why we can't acknowledge the Armenian genocide to this day. Because the adl, when Abe Foxman was there, was like he lobbied to not recognize any other holocaust but the main one.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kurt Metzger]

It's one of the worst, most evil groups that ever existed.

[Jimmy Dore]

Though he's faced criticism for this stance, including from members of the ADL itself, he has only continued to double down. And you can double down on comedy. This Sunday at Oxnard. Come see me telling jokes in Oxnard, California or Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver. Go to jimmy doar.com for a link for tickets. In one infamous exchange during the outbreak of pro Palestinian protests on college campuses in 24, Greenblatt suggested that students wearing kafifas or kafifa's. I don't know how you say that a kind of scarf commonly worn by Palestinians. They were doing were doing the equivalent of wearing a swastika.

[Kurt Metzger]

Oh, let's make laws around your Woody Allen neurosis maniac.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah, right.

[Kurt Metzger]

You know what that means.

[Jimmy Dore]

You know, at one time I might have told the ADL to stop doing all this. But you know, I've come to realize that nothing will shorten their tenure in this world faster than just letting them go right ahead and tell everyone who they really are. They're censorious, crazy, murderous, genociding fascists. Yeah, that's what they are. You are the fascists. There's only two kinds of people who are surrounding these people now. They're the ones who are looking for a way out of an association with them, and the ones who want to get rid of you to save their own name. You're encircled by a Shakespearean group of frenemies.

[Kurt Metzger]

By the way, the original name of the Zionists who founded Israel, it was the Zionist Fascist Party because they were fascists. They just dropped the fascist part later, after the war. But they were called the Zionist Fascists, not just Zionists. That's the original name of the people that founded Israel, the Zionist fascists. Katie Alpert had it on.

[Jimmy Dore]

And I wouldn't have known any of this stuff if it wasn't for how they responded to the October 7 attacks, which they enabled and financed. They certainly financed. Who's they? Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government.

[Kurt Metzger]

Meanwhile, Greenblatt's the good deli that I liked in LA closes down and this asshole still works.

[Jimmy Dore]

Greenblatts closed?

[Kurt Metzger]

Yes.

[Jimmy Dore]

Covid next to the Laugh Factory.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yes.

[Jimmy Dore]

So what's in there now?

[Kurt Metzger]

I don't know. Nothing. That was my favorite one. That was by me. I didn't like the one. Kantor stinks. Greenblatts was so much better. Completely gone. And yet this Greenblatt still goes on.

[Jimmy Dore]

Okay, so here is something is very surprising because we have Stephen Colbert saying exactly one thing before Trump was elected and then saying the exact opposite after Trump was elected.

[Kurt Metzger]

Is that surprising? Really?

[Jimmy Dore]

Very unlike what I'm going to be doing August 3rd in Oxnard, California. Come see me do stand up there at the Levity Live. Go to jimmy doe.com for a link for tickets or in Rutherford, New Jersey, or in Manhattan at the Village Underground. Mays found this. He said in the summer of 2020, Stephen Colbert aired a sketch warning people to be skeptical of vaccines and Big Pharma. Eleven months later, when Biden was president, Colbert was dancing for the vaccine. Colbert is one of the most partisan, shameless shills that America has ever seen. You think he's kidding? Let's watch. Some folks are skeptical. Thankfully, Big Pharma has come up with a way to reassure the public about their motives. And it's all in their new ad. So this is him making a fake ad lampooning pharma as the lying criminals that they are. This is before Biden became president. This is when everybody was going to be skeptical of the vaccine because Trump came up with it. Remember that? Joe Biden said so? Kamala Harris said, I'm not going to take it if Trump comes up. They all said that. And so here was Colbert. Joanne Reed said It.

[Kurt Metzger]

So she shrunk her wig in the wash. She used to go, I ain't taking that.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah. And here's Colbert saying the exact same thing. This was in. What was this? Was this in? This was in the summer of 2020 before the vaccine came out. This is the kind of stuff Stephen Colbert was saying. Some folks are skeptical. Thankfully, Big Pharma has come up with a way to reassure the public about their motives. And it's all in their new ad. Are you worried about the future?

[J.D. Vance]

Unable to sleep at night? Afraid that pharma companies will put their.

[Jimmy Dore]

Profits ahead of your health? If you are concerned about the cost of a vaccine, ask your doctor about Vaxilax. Vaxilax is the only medication proven to reduce anxiety about Big Pharma taking advantage of you in a national crisis. You can treat trust Vaxilax because of its mascot, Professor Cashington, the ethical money sack.

[J.D. Vance]

Side effects of vaccine include legless rest syndrome, kidney rhinestones, crumblefoot, spontaneous beard sparrows, the galloping hoop sticks, spinal crunch, wrapping, Ferdinand's flopsy, big old pink face, Gordon's fisherman syndrome, scrotal yodas, chronic vaccine resistance.

[Jimmy Dore]

Facial, Graham crackering, full blown coronavirus, and dolla dollar bills, y'. All. The vaccine. So that. So that's what he was saying in the summer of 2020. Who's his writers?

[Kurt Metzger]

Because they wrote that for him.

[Jimmy Dore]

Because his writers wrote that for him and he was scumbags for that dude. And no, that. That's what they should have been writing. That's this kind of stuff. You should. You should always be.

[Kurt Metzger]

For writing that. I didn't know that. For writing that and then going to the vaccine dance later. That means you're smart enough to come up with that. And then later you forgot about it. Like you're fucking Amy Goodman forgetting about Fauci.

[Jimmy Dore]

And so then after Biden was president, this is what he was doing. The vaccine. Yeah. Yeah, I guess. Unless that's his band playing. I bet it's his band playing. So no. So that doesn't matter. That's him doing it. So he went from.

[Kurt Metzger]

Are dead now.

[Jimmy Dore]

He went from that. I wonder if they're all dead.

[Kurt Metzger]

That's what Strokes from climate change.

[Jimmy Dore]

From climate change or watching TV late at night. So Stephen Colbert is a good altar boy. That means he says whatever he's told to say by an authority with their hand up his ass. That is most. That's one of the most remarkable things I've ever seen. I didn't know that he was taking the piss out Of Big Pharma during COVID before Biden became president. I didn't know that. Well, there it is. Great catch by Mace. So that's just one. One year apart.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yo. There's no excuse. He's a pure evil scumbag for that. How do you do that? And then I give Chris Cuomo more leeway because I think he's dumber than Simon Colbert.

[Jimmy Dore]

You ever see somebody of note say something and then immediately after do or say the exact opposite thing? Like the deep state met them out in the parking lot and straightened them out, because that's what that seems like. This is Colbert's humiliation, ritual, punishment, betraying his base, losing every shed of remaining dignity.

[Kurt Metzger]

This was he. He was made in a lab. His dad was the Fauci before Fauci, so. And he's a Jesuit scumbag like Foushee. So that means this. This improv piece of garbage is programmed probably from a very young age to be like this. A mindless authority puppet. Okay? And he was probably programmed in a terrible way. That's my guess.

[Jimmy Dore]

And so this is a guy who's supposed to be anti establishment. This is the guy supposed to be taking the piss out of the powerful and the politicians and the liars. Here's a video of him dancing with a mask. Watch it. Who's that guy? That's Chuck Schumer. That's Chuck. So if you see Chuck Schumer, waves him over. Come on, Stephen, dance with me. Come on. And Stephen Colbert. Oh, and they're wearing their uniform. Khakis. Khakis and a blue shirt.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah, it really works the clots out from the booster.

[Jimmy Dore]

And there he is. He high fives Chuck Schumer.

[Kurt Metzger]

It's totally normal looking Jimmy.

[Jimmy Dore]

That poor Internet. And everybody's just standing around watching the powerful dance.

[Kurt Metzger]

With masks on. With masks.

[Jimmy Dore]

With masks on.

[Kurt Metzger]

The burka of the face.

[Jimmy Dore]

I wonder where Stephen Colbert's mask is.

[Kurt Metzger]

By the way. This one, they ran all the funny male writers out and they were putting in like, those white liberal woman, fish speaker improv chicks. Right? That's. And they all think a bit is just doing a dance.

[Jimmy Dore]

And so, you know, like stupid Ghostbusters.

[Kurt Metzger]

Female Ghostbusters. Then there's a dance scene because we're dancing like no one's watching, but everybody is watching and they paid.

[Jimmy Dore]

So remember when he tried to pretend that CNN is impartial and their objective news. Watch this. His own. His own audience laughed at him. Remember this? People forget this. His heels by this. And he's not really sure how to go after Vice President Harris. He knew his attack lines on President Biden. He really has struggled with how to. How to go after someone who's 20 years younger than him, who is a different gender, a different race. It's kind of been this moment where he has not been able to coalesce around a single attack line. I know you guys are objective over there that you just report the news as it is. Oh, I know CNN makes. I know that. I know that my audience just laughed at me because I'm so obviously lying.

[Kurt Metzger]

They thought he's making a joke.

[Jimmy Dore]

They thought I was being honest. They thought I was being honest and making a joke. But what I'm actually doing, I was trying to bullshit my own audience, and they laughed in my face.

[Kurt Metzger]

Please don't have me beaten.

[Jimmy Dore]

You want to watch that again? Because I want to watch it again. You just report the news as it is. Oh, I know CNN makes you. I know you guys are objective over there that you just report the news as it is. Oh, I know CNN makes a. Is that supposed to be a laugh line? I wasn't supposed to be, but I guess it is. I guess it is. I guess I'm here lying for the establishment and they caught. They. They caught me. You can't. Because laughter is involuntary. I guess it is a laugh line. Yeah. You mean you just unwittingly said the funniest thing you ever said on your show. Unwittingly because you were actually trying to lie. You were being a phony. He was being a phony. Liar.

[Kurt Metzger]

He showed. He knows. He is right there.

[Jimmy Dore]

Right?

[Kurt Metzger]

Showing you. Look, I did my best. Yeah, it sounds like a joke, but I am following orders. He's showing you that he's doing it on purpose. And it ain't. It ain't like, no, I don't want. Like, he's doing it.

[Jimmy Dore]

I found this video of me. So Stephen Colbert interviewed Barack Obama recently. And I guess this because I had gray hair. So here he is. Here I am covering Stephen Colbert interviewing Barack Obama. Just watch this. Can we just. Just take a moment. Can I just.

[J.D. Vance]

I don't.

[Jimmy Dore]

And I want to talk. I just. I just want to take a moment to. To. To drink you in. I would just like to take a moment to ram the biggest fucking cock in the world right in his face. That's a good cat. But you'd have to take a number to get in the back of the line.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah, clearly.

[Jimmy Dore]

Clearly. Like, he's a good Catholic. He teaches Sunday school. So now the biggest pieces of. In the world are for sure Sunday school teachers. What a waste of a life. What a waste of a life to go from doing the. The best comedy show in the world to being the biggest ball washer of criminal establishment war criminals, murderers. The guy who prosecuted journalists. The guy who left those people in Flint high and dry. The guy who kicked 5.1 million films out of their house. Who opened the Arctic to drilling. Who built those cages. I just want to drink you in. That's the kind of psych psychosis that happens when you're handed a network television show by Les Moonves and millions of dollars to go with it. As much more money than he can ever spend. That's what happens to you. That's a guy who used to play a character that made fun of this guy. Now he is that character. He became the character. So you want to hear it again? Can we just. Just take a moment. Can I just.

[J.D. Vance]

I don't.

[Jimmy Dore]

And I want to talk. I just. I just want to take a moment to. To. To drink you in. Yeah, drink him in. Like Obama drank that Flint water. Just a little kiss on the tip.

[Kurt Metzger]

Then I run to a helicopter. Colbert's wearing his ankles for earrings. Like, come over here. Let me drink you in.

[Jimmy Dore]

I don't know how long I'm going to be doing this, but I just want to keep reminding people of what garbage people that the Democrats. They're not the left. They call themselves left. They're not. They're the Democrats are propping up. This guy's a. Could not be a bigger phony. It's unbelievable. He became the character he used to play on tv. He became that character.

[Kurt Metzger]

World Order.

[Jimmy Dore]

He's an asset of the New World Order.

[Kurt Metzger]

Oh. That's all it means is that's what that rally for sanity him and Stewart did.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yep.

[Kurt Metzger]

Where they promote that they did nothing.

[Jimmy Dore]

Bruce Epstein, even Bill.

[Kurt Metzger]

Mediocre shit.

[Jimmy Dore]

Even Bill Maher called out Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart for doing that. That rally that did rally for sanity. He said, hey, here's an idea. When you have 100,000 people show up in Washington D.C. for a rally, why don't you make it about something? That's what Bill said.

[Kurt Metzger]

Genocide. But at least I took a stand.

[Jimmy Dore]

Why don't you make it about something? It was about nothing.

[Kurt Metzger]

Yeah.

[Jimmy Dore]

It was about. Jon Stewart gave his speech and it was about how we need to be nicer in traffic.

[Kurt Metzger]

Hey, we should all get your salary to John, you absolute cut off from the world idiot.

[Jimmy Dore]

Who?

[Kurt Metzger]

A man who's only counseled by Yentas.

[Jimmy Dore]

So I. You could do this all day. Great job by Maze, by the way, for finding that a complete 180 flip flop. So that's what everybody was supposed to be doing, by the way. So all my comedian friends, I thought we were all supposed to be making fun of Big Pharma and being suspect and skeptical of them around Covid. And it all ended as soon as Joe Biden became president. That all ended. That was.

[Kurt Metzger]

Money's not coming from them. Is it because Colbert worked on networks and cnn, as we know with Anderson Cooper, they indirectly, through a series of things, are paying their salaries. So you're gonna be a good company man, aren't you? If through a couple of. Yeah, you're being paid to be what you are. I didn't real. I thought maybe he's like, I hypnotized Manchurian Candidate. I didn't know he's so intentional on it. That's how naive I am. So I saw him. That thing about Big Pharma and then his skull. Who are the writers that wrote that? What's. I mean, I hope they quit and protest later. Right? Because they wrote that bit that really summed it up.

[Jimmy Dore]

Right.

[Kurt Metzger]

And then I hope they.

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah. So how could his writers write that first thing and then also write all that. The vaccine dance number for him?

[Kurt Metzger]

I've been in writers rooms and I've been like where I got shouted down because there's no way I wouldn't have brought that up in a race room. Were we just talking about how they suck?

[Jimmy Dore]

Yeah.

[Kurt Metzger]

And I already know the kind of people. They're all improv. They're all upper class. They know Nick Kroll kind of people. Yeah, well, that and they all are gonna, you know. And his dad's for the CIA, Wall Street Company. That's Nick's. I love Nick Kroll show. But, you know, that's where he comes from. Real. And that's what all those improv people were. They came from real good families that are connected to big shit and they were always going to be on tv. Which, by the way, you can have it. That's crazy. How would you not like hang yourself with Brigitte Macron's dick if you had to flip flop like that?
