Not that it’s a surprise at this point, but the Wall Street Journal is now reporting that pretty much everyone in Washington DC knew for some time that President Joe Biden was sundowning, and collectively worked to hide the fact from the public....

Go to Jimmy Dore.com for a link for tickets. Hey, this is Jimmy. Who's this?
Tim Walz
Jimmy, this is Tim Waltz of the great state of Minnesota. How the hell are you?
Jimmy Dore
Oh, God, you again. Why are you still calling me?
Tim Walz
I love this rapport we have.
Jimmy Dore
Oh, Jesus.
Tim Walz
I guess I'm calling you because we both hate each other so much.
Jimmy Dore
Well, you're half right. You lost.
Tim Walz
Go away now, Jimmy, just hold on there. Hold your horses. Yes, Kamala lost the campaign, but that does not mean I am going to stop fighting for the working class of this country and reaching out to media outlets like yours to do so.
Jimmy Dore
Okay? Kamala lost. Kamala lost, did she? I thought it was the Harris Waltz ticket that lost.
Tim Walz
Well, I. As I was shrewd enough to keep saying during the campaign, Kamala's the star of the show. She's the boss. I'm just a middle aged, straight white CIS man who's here to help. And in hindsight, I guess I was covering my ass, wasn't I? Her campaign, her loss.
Jimmy Dore
Ah, how shrewd. Indeed.
Tim Walz
So I come out smelling like a rose, Jimmy. Or at least a honeysuckle. Either way, I'm slowly embarking on my what happened? Press tour, which is the next step to my own political career on the national stage. You know how it goes, Jimmy.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah.
Tim Walz
Yeah. So I went on Minnesota Public radio recently, you know, baby steps here and said that. Actually, I thought it was bizarre that we lost. Just bizarre. Yeah, I really thought we had a platform that resonated with the middle class.
Jimmy Dore
Is that so?
Tim Walz
Oh, yeah. And like I told them, I thought it was a real flex. Gotta use that Gen Z slang, Jimmy, that I don't have a lot of money and I pay my bills just like every other Joe Six Pack in this country. I was truly astonished. It was truly astonishing to me that that messaging didn't pan out. Hey, you're a broke dick like me. You have way more in common with me than this millionaire who lives in a resort in Florida and has a hot model wife but still bangs porn stars. Like, who would even want that?
Jimmy Dore
I don't know. I see some flaws in that messaging.
Tim Walz
Well, I thought it was bizarre, but.
Unknown
Hey.
Tim Walz
We have to acknowledge that it didn't work and move on. The autopsy of the 2024 campaign will continue for some time, but we have to call a spade a spade and be honest with ourselves.
Jimmy Dore
So the Democrats will change their messaging?
Tim Walz
Well, probably not. Let's be honest. We'll most likely just message harder and throw more guilt and shaming in there.
Jimmy Dore
You know, I think you may be right. So what's next for you?
Tim Walz
Well, Jimmy, election or no election, I'm currently the governor of the great state of Minnesota. How the hell are you? So basically back to my day job. At least here I have the opportunity to work for the middle class and working class of this great state.
Jimmy Dore
Oh, what's been happening lately there?
Tim Walz
Well, one thing we've been dealing with is a satanic organization that's put up some sort of satanic display in the state capitol building here in St. Paul.
Jimmy Dore
Excuse me?
Tim Walz
You heard right. Jim's Satan at Christmas time, no less. It's the same organization that put one of these things up in the Iowa capitol building in Des Moines.
Jimmy Dore
What did you do?
Tim Walz
Oh, it's stand put. Hell, I'm not satanic. And neither is this organization. Actually. They're a secular religious group, whatever that means. But they do this stunt occasionally to enforce religious plurality, and my hands are tight. Free speech. We can't favor one religious group over another. Or even a fake religious group acting as provocateurs. As governor, I am proud to declare Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah and Happy Kwanzaa and Hail Satan, imperator of all demons and eternal bringer of woe.
Jimmy Dore
And how did the working class of Minnesota feel about this, Governor?
Tim Walz
Jimmy, I'd like to thank the think the good people of Minnesota realize that our Constitution protects people of all religious faiths, expression, even people posing as Satanists, just to cause trouble.
Jimmy Dore
And do they?
Tim Walz
Apparently not. They are very angry. Livid, many of them. But Jimmy, this is one of those old fashioned American values that I simply cannot abandon as governor. Hail Satan.
Jimmy Dore
Okay, look, personally I find every part of this silly. But the people you want to win over might not.
Tim Walz
What do you mean? I don't understand.
Jimmy Dore
Well, the Democrats constantly take sides in culture war type issues that alienate them from working class voters. You know, gender stuff comes to mind. Some say that's why you lost to Trump.
Tim Walz
Hmm. I never thought about this. Interesting. Go on.
Jimmy Dore
And now it appears that the same voters that you are literally on the side to those same voters, that you are literally on the side of Satan. Do you see how that might be bad optics politically?
Tim Walz
But I'm defending the freedom of religion. Working class voters love religious plurality more than almost anything else.
Jimmy Dore
No, they don't. And they don't like Satan.
Tim Walz
Hail Satan.
Jimmy Dore
Okay, see, this is the problem.
Tim Walz
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's just sort of a reflex at this point. Look, you are throwing some curveballs at me. This is like 4D chess level poly sci stuff. So basically you're saying we lost a lot of voters over cultural issues where we were taking positions that seem to contradict their religious values and the way to get them back is not supporting Satanists?
Jimmy Dore
Yes, that's. That's what I'm saying.
Tim Walz
Wow. Okay. Well, this is a lot to think about. My head is spinning. See, Jimmy, this is why I like rapping with you. Because you come at me with ideas that sound kind of crackpot at first, but after a while I start to think maybe old Jim's is right.
Jimmy Dore
That's what I bring to the table, Governor.
Tim Walz
Well, you know what? You keep being you. I gotta go. But always a pleasure. Give my love to Steph. And Hail Satan.
Jimmy Dore
Stop saying that.
Tim Walz
Damn it.
Jimmy Dore
Sorry.
Tim Walz
I'll get it one of these days. Gonna have to make some flashcards. Toodles.
Jimmy Dore
Okay, toodles. Establishment media sucks. August lighting, so good luck. Bullshit.
Unknown
We can't afford why he's fomenting this.
Jimmy Dore
Watch and see as his jack golf.
Chris Cillizza
The medium speeds and jumps the medium.
Jimmy Dore
And hits him head on. It's the Jimmy Door show. The Wall Street Journal came out with this. I'm sure you heard of it. If you watch this show how the White House functioned without a diminished Biden. With a diminished Biden in charge. So now they're saying it the end of December 2024. Finally, the mainstream media is now going to tell you what the Jimmy Dore show has been telling you since 2019.
Unknown
That Joe. That Joe. You saw it with your own goddamn eyes.
Jimmy Dore
Joe Biden is demented. He has early. Well, I don't know if it's early. He's in his late 70s. He has dementia. So I don't know if it's Alzheimer's or dementia or.
Unknown
The thing I heard was called frequent aneurysm syndrome, which I've never heard of, but that's what I heard from a good source.
Jimmy Dore
So he's had two brain surgeries.
Unknown
Yeah, he'd had a few aneurysms that we know about. Yeah, but they were hiding the others. I just want to point out that Bill Maher won't have George Clooney on his show to explain himself because people, they're mad at Clooney because he wrote that tremendous.
Jimmy Dore
You're kidding.
Unknown
You met dude. I'm not making that up. George Clooney's mad at. At Obama for making him be the guy. Okay. He wrote and he. It's up to him at the end of the day. So they're mad at him. Which doesn't even make sense because you knew Biden was senile.
Jimmy Dore
That's right. And that Obama was the one who told Clooney to write that thing in the first place.
Unknown
Did you think Biden would win? Everyone knew he was gone.
Jimmy Dore
The sub headline is AIDS kept meetings short and controlled access. Top advisors acted as go between. As public interactions became more scripted. The administration denied. Biden has declined. So wait, so. So as I've always told you, I've always told you that the government is the biggest liars and then the second biggest liar is the corporate media. So this is them. This is the government lying. And then the corporate media covered for him for three years, eleven and a half months. So that's what this is. Finally, the corporate media is going to tell you the truth that we've been telling you since 2019. It was obvious that he was demented. And I'm going to show you in the next segment what they knew it at the debate in 2019 that he was demented when that. Who was the guy that called him out on it anyway?
Unknown
To adapt also they just. They admitted. Am I wrong? They also just admitted recently Nord Stream was America finally.
Jimmy Dore
America didn't admit that, but it was a European newspaper did. Ready to adapt the White House around. To adapt the White House around. The needs of a diminished leader. They told visitors to keep meetings focused, unlike Joe Biden, who was not focused. Interactions with senior Democratic lawmakers and some cabinet members, including powerful secretaries such as Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Treasury Janet Yellen, were infrequent or grew less frequent. Some legislative leaders had a hard time getting the President's ear at key moments, including ahead of the US Disastrous pullout from Afghanistan.
Unknown
It wasn't disaster. We forged bonds that will get us lithium.
Jimmy Dore
Senior senior advisors were often put into roles that some administration officials and lawmakers thought Biden should occupy with people such as National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, senior counsel Steve Richetti and National Economic Council head Lael Brainard. Never heard of him. And her pred. Oh, it's a woman and her predecessor. Frequently in the position of being go betweens for the president. Press aides who compiled packages of news clips for Biden were told by senior staff to exclude negative stories about the president. What is this guy? Is this guy a diva movie star on a. On a set. Julian Castro.
Unknown
Yes. All the magazines he's got. CAA is his agency. Yes.
Jimmy Dore
So Joe Biden has an agency. The most powerful agency in Hollywood is CIA. They represent the President of the United States.
Unknown
Why do you think me too. Didn't do anything when Joe Biden.
Jimmy Dore
That's right.
Unknown
Accused of grabbing a woman by the pussy as they accused.
Jimmy Dore
That's right. The president wasn't talking to his own pollsters. Wasn't talking to his own pollsters. As surveys showed him trailing in the 2024 race. The President's slide has been hard to overlook. Oh really? Because you guys did a great job of overlooking it for three years and 11 months.
Unknown
Yeah, Jimmy, I'm going to say something and if you can't handle it. F you.
Jimmy Dore
F you. As Joe Biden.
Unknown
Well, preparing the best Biden.
Jimmy Dore
This Biden while preparing last year. Last year in 2023 for his interview with Robert K. Hoor Hur, the special counsel who investigated Biden. So that was the special counsel appointed to investigate if Joe Biden mishandled secret documents. He eventually concluded that Joe Biden. A jury would not convict him because he's demented. That's what that guy. That's what that guy. He said they would not. You couldn't get a jury to convict him. So when he would. So when they were getting him prepped for his interview with the special with their investigator, this guy Hur. Hur. The President, he couldn't recall lines that his team had discussed with him. So he couldn't remember what his what his lies were supposed to be for the guy. At events, aides often repeated instructions to him. What kind of instructions? Like where to enter and exit the stage. The guy's running the free world. Supposedly.
Unknown
Supposedly Obama. Obama's our secret president.
Jimmy Dore
That's right.
Unknown
You know what? As a shitlib, I kind of know that and I'm glad.
Jimmy Dore
So he had to. They had to tell him where to get enter and exit the stage. Something that would be obvious to an average person. And you were called every name in the book by corporate media for pointing this out.
Unknown
Right.
Jimmy Dore
Called conspiracy theorists. Over and over. You're pushing deep fakes. You're pushing conspiracy theories.
Unknown
They called them cheap fakes.
Jimmy Dore
They call them cheap fakes.
Unknown
It didn't take off, but cringe. Jean Pierre tried to. That was a cheap fake. The real footage of Biden that in any context looks terrible.
Jimmy Dore
Biden's team tapped campaign co chairman. Guess who? Biden's campaign choke coach. Just to let you know, Jeffrey Katzenberg.
Unknown
Cenk Uyghurs funder for a while.
Jimmy Dore
He still is, by the way. So he gave the Young Turks $20 million. This guy, Biden's co chairman.
Unknown
Then why is Cenk going full?
Jimmy Dore
Because he lost his audience, gave him $20 million and because he's not going to get any more money out of Katzenberg.
Unknown
Right, that's what I'm saying.
Jimmy Dore
But that wasn't a loan. That was Jeffrey Katzenberg purchasing $20 million worth of the Young Turks. Jeffrey Katzenberg now has a seat on the corporate board at the Young Turks. There wasn't a load. That was an investment Hollywood. So Biden's team tapped campaign co chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg, a Hollywood mogul, to find a voice coach to improve the president's fading warble.
Unknown
This is.
Jimmy Dore
They're telling you this all now? Believe me, the Wall Street Journal has known this for as long as I've known it.
Unknown
Jeffrey Katzenberg, the guy who doesn't want homelessness fixed in California.
Jimmy Dore
So Jimmy, why are they saying this now? Why are they releasing this all now? Because, I guess.
Unknown
Because what are you going to do about it?
Jimmy Dore
Because it'll sell papers, I guess because it'll.
Unknown
They always do. They tell the truth. There's like a time. That's why I asked about the Nord stream, because I'm trying to map out the timeline of when they can finally tell you the thing we've all known.
Jimmy Dore
You know, the system put Biden at an unusual. Removed from cabinet secretaries, the chairs of congressional committees and other high rank. So they. He was. They Wouldn't let him talk to anybody. The people the President's supposed to talk to, even his own top advisors, he would. They wouldn't let him talk to them.
Unknown
This is not unusual. Reagan, when they went through this with Reagan, did we all forget Dianne Feinstein and fucking.
Jimmy Dore
But she wasn't President McConnell.
Unknown
This is just the standard operating procedure. And everyone should wonder, do you think your country's real when this is a thing? When all the people together go, oh, we can't say the President is fucking. They should say.
Jimmy Dore
So not only the people who are running the country know that the guy who's the, the head of the country neglected is senile. They knew he's senile when he was running in 2019, by the way.
Unknown
Well, that's.
Jimmy Dore
And so did the media. Let me finish. So they did. They, so did the media. Not only did they know his. The people actually running it, but the corporate media knew too. They also knew, so. Because I knew. So if me, a C student would know at the time, a pothead in my garage knew, you know, they knew. So you're being lied to it all the time. So this idea that somehow they got to worry about rumble or they got to worry about YouTube or Twitter or Facebook, those are where the missing. No, the misinformation comes straight from the top every day, all day, every day of the year. So just, just keep that. So that's why there's always a lie.
Unknown
Yeah. So it's only harmful to them.
Jimmy Dore
Now, now the Wall Street Journal says it also insulated Joe Biden from the scrutiny of the American public. You think?
Unknown
No, the media, the public noticed. Go look at that big red map of Trump winning. If Biden stayed in, he wouldn't have won. Everyone noticed. It was getting ridiculous to pretend he wasn't senile yet.
Jimmy Dore
A sign that the bruising presidential schedule needed to be adjusted for Biden's advanced age had arisen early on in just the first few months of his term. So immediately, immediately everybody knew. Everybody in the corporate press knew. Everybody in the White House knew. Everybody in Congress, Everybody in the. Everybody knew immediately. Just like Everybody knows Mitch McConnell, just like everybody knew that Dianne Feinstein. Just like everybody knows. Except they're lying to you.
Unknown
But Jimmy, you're one of these anti establishment.
Jimmy Dore
I know. Administration officials noticed that the President became tired. If meetings went long and would make mistakes, they issued a directive to some powerful lawmakers and allies seeking one on one time. The exchanges should be short and focused. According to people who received the messages direct from the White House. Ideally, the meetings would start later in the day. Since Biden has never been at his best first thing in the morning, some of his staff made these adjustments to limit potential missteps by Biden. The President, known for long and rambling sessions, at times pushed in the opposite direction, wanting or just taking more time.
Unknown
The White House for Carlos Mencia, the.
Jimmy Dore
White House denied that his schedule has been altered due to his age. They did his. They're just. If the President. Senility.
Unknown
It's a medical condition. It's not his age. There's plenty of old people.
Jimmy Dore
That's right.
Unknown
Brain doesn't work.
Jimmy Dore
That's right. If the President was having an off day, meetings could be scrapped altogether. On one such occasion in the spring of 2021. So the first few days of his administration, a national security official explained to another aide why a meeting needed to be rescheduled. He has good days and bad days, and today was a bad day. So we're. So we're going to address this tomorrow. That was in the first days of administration. They knew he was demented. Everybody knew. So that's what. And now the Wall Street. So again, this whole idea that that ass wipe from Axios who was getting an award at the press club saying Twitter isn't the news, we are, that's bullshit. No, no, you guys are bullshit. You guys are bullshit. And that's why people come to shows like this. Even, even if we're suppressed by the algorithm, we're considered borderline content. There are people with half quarter of the subscribers than me that get more views. Why? Because they're not considered borderline content.
Unknown
When you cock everything up, people notice that. What's going on? If honestly Reagan people were just like, whatever and he was senile the whole second term, but guess what? Everything wasn't as completely fucked as it is now. So your illusion doesn't work if you're going to not take care of the machine. Like they haven't been.
Jimmy Dore
I just thought it was Biden stuttering. I thought that. I thought he had a stutter. Yeah, he had a stutter.
Unknown
You know he's got a stuttering problem. So there's brain.
Jimmy Dore
So just like I've always told you, the biggest liars and spreaders of disinformation and misinformation and flat out lies and conspiracy theories is the government. Second is the corporate media. And a distant third are randos on social media and YouTube and rumble. Hey, I don't need to tell you that our current state of health care system is awful.

Jimmy Dore
CT mobile.com so now I'm going to show you a compilation or just some of my favorite clips of the news media lying to you now that the Wall Street Journal has written a front page article about how Joe Biden is demented and was since day one. Since day one. That's according to the Wall Street Journal. He was demented since day one. Guess what? He was demented before that. He was demented since 2019 when he was running for president. And we were telling people at this show he's demented and other people were saying, calling us crazy.
Unknown
He had had three aneurysm surgeries. Am I wrong about that?
Jimmy Dore
At least two.
Unknown
Three.
Jimmy Dore
At least two. Maybe three. I'm not. I don't know. So here's that. What's it, what's his name? Julian Castro. Julian Castro. Do you remember this at the, this is at the 2019 debate when they were all running for president and Joe Biden was just. They were the. That the. They were still hoping Kamala Harris, I think could win it. Remember that? Yeah.
Unknown
And that little girl was me, Jimmy.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah. So he calls him out for not being able to remember what he said five seconds ago. And the media pounced not on Joe Biden, but on him. Watch this. 10 million people uncovered.
Unknown
He wanted every single person in this country covered. My plan would do that.
Jimmy Dore
Your plan would not. They do not have to buy in. They do not have to buy in. You just said that.
Unknown
You just said that two minutes ago. You just said two minutes ago that they would have to buy in.
Jimmy Dore
You said they would have to buy in. To buy in. If she qualifies.
Chris Cillizza
Are you forgetting what you said?
Unknown
Are you forgetting already what you said.
Jimmy Dore
Just two minutes ago? I mean, I can't believe that you said two minutes ago. That they had to buy in and.
Chris Cillizza
Now you're saying they don't have to buy.
Jimmy Dore
You're forgetting that grandmother who has no money health care system, you're automatically enrolled enrolls people regardless of whether they choose.
Unknown
To opt in or not.
Jimmy Dore
If you lose your job, for instance.
Unknown
His, his health care plan would not.
Jimmy Dore
So that's Joe Biden getting. I think he was mostly upset because he was convinced he was debating Fidel Castro and not Julian Castro.
Unknown
Why did he, why did Bernie lean in to whisper like. Actually you did say that about two minutes ago.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah, like Bernie's helping him out. Bernie, he's turned. Bernie. What? What?
Unknown
You said that.
Jimmy Dore
So that was him being demented.
Unknown
The crowd picked up on it too.
Jimmy Dore
I think Joe, Joe Biden was just asking Bernie Sanders if he'd get a Schwinn bicycle for Christmas. I think that's what.
Unknown
Shoot your eye out, kid.
Jimmy Dore
So there's Joe Biden. How the White House. So this is the article how the White House functioned with a diminished Biden in charge.
Unknown
Does it just say badly in the article?
Jimmy Dore
So this is right. And so there we. They show a contemplative Joe Biden trying to figure out how they even fit Marmaduke into that little car in the first place. So here now Mays got grabs this one. In early June, before Biden Trump debate, the Wall Street Journal did a story on Biden's decline. Behind closed doors Biden shows signs of slipping. Brian Stelter claimed that that was fake news.
Unknown
Reliable Brian. I call him Reliable Brian. Also look at Joy Ann Reed's Joy Ann Reid's wig has been receding like the coral reef.
Jimmy Dore
This is what, here's Brian. Here's Mr. Reliable Sources, Brian Stelter. But Sinclair, they didn't do any original reporting. They didn't follow up, they didn't do any work. They didn't do any of their own work at all. They just ate it up. And then they regurgitated what the Wall Street Journal said. That's the worst form of so called journalism out there. It's not really news at all. And that's my biggest complaint about this. Yeah, they said this could be an election decider Joe Biden's age. Well that's true. If the media obsesses over it and ignores Trump's flaws, that will be true. If the media puts its fists on the scale. If the media puts their fists on the scale, Brian, this isn't a coke deal. Their fists if, if anyone's tipping the scale, it's your fat ass. Okay, Brian, this isn't a coke deal.
Unknown
Okay? No. First of all, it's called putting your thumb on the scale.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah.
Unknown
Your fist on. Are you making gay jokes about yourself? So your fist on the scale.
Jimmy Dore
So that's Mr. Reliable Sources saying that the report that behind Joe Biden, he's slipping. And by the way, he knew it. That he knows it. He. She knew it. She knew it. They all knew it. They all knew it since 2019. They all knew it because Julian Castro knew it. And he was the only one who had the balls. Julian. Yeah.
Unknown
You know what help their ratings if you see a picture of them if at the commercial break they all switch wigs when they come back and they have the two wigs on the two dudes.
Jimmy Dore
But Sinclair, here's In light of today's Wall Street Journal report exposing Biden as completely unable to do the job of president for the last four years, I once again raised you this June 17, 2024 clip from Nicole Wallace. Nicole Torture Wallace, who spoke about a Republican plot to create an insidious cheap fake. That's it. Here it is. Cheap fakes. Cheap fake. Here we go. Cheap fakes. There's a growing and insidious trend in right wing media, broadcast, print and social media. It is to take highly misleading and selectively edited videos of President Biden directly from Republican National Committee social media accounts and then use those videos to spread messages virally to cast doubt on President Biden's fitness for office. Here is this headline from the New York Post. Quote, Biden appears to freeze up, has to be led off stage by Obama@Megabucks LA fundraiser. The full video posted by Biden finance chair on Twitter shows something entirely different. No, it didn't. Reacting to applause and then walking off stage with former President Obama. It comes less than one week after the New York Post. They don't even show the whole thing. No, she didn't even show it.
Unknown
No, that didn't show the longer cut in the cheap fake.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah, the cheap fake showed the more accurate version, which is when Joe Biden froze up and Barack Obama had to grab him by the arm and lead him off stage.
Unknown
It was unedited. So that's actually. Maybe that's why it's cheaper, because there's not a lot of editing. Theirs was an expensive fake.
Jimmy Dore
The only difference between a cheap fake and a deep fake is that federal tax dollars aren't funding the cheap fake. That's it. I called Nicole Wallace a shallow fake.
Unknown
It's amazing. Looking at it now after the election is extra humorous.
Jimmy Dore
Cover out of another piece of deceptively edited tape calling him Meander in Chief due to what they claim was Biden walking away during a skydiving demonstration during the GC last week. The only problem is that the full video which emerged almost instantly shows Biden was going over to congratulate one of the skydivers who's cropped out of the video entirely. Both the articles are based on cheap. No, he didn't know. He, he got distracted like my dog when a squirrel goes by and they had to go grab him. No, no, no. We're over here, Mr. President. That was the Italian prime Minister. Had to grab him by the arm and lead him back over.
Unknown
Jimmy, you are doing a cheap fake about your dog. Your dog was merely turning to congratulate a squirrel.
Jimmy Dore
Videos of real events that are intentionally manipulated to fool viewers released on an RNC opposition research social media account. With zero independent fact checking by these so called journalists and spread throughout the right wing ecosystem, we would take the hand wringing by right wing media about Biden's mental fitness in videos intentionally manipulated to make him look unfit. Maybe a little more seriously if they weren't radio silent about the repeated glaring and real mental lapses happening behind podiums and on camera on the part of Donald Trump.
Unknown
What?
Jimmy Dore
Of course she doesn't show one.
Unknown
The way she said fact checking sounded like fuck checking.
Jimmy Dore
So that, so that is so again, this is this. These again the biggest liars in the world, the government and corporate media. Nobody's close. She's doing that with a straight face. You know why? Because her first job was to be a professional liar for George Bush and Dick Cheney and lie about their torturing and lie about the Iraq war. That's what you. And then of course they go, oh msnbc, let's hire her. She's a great liar for the establishment. That's what Rachel Maddow is. That's what Chris Hayes is fake tough guy. Lawrence O'Donnell, Joy Ann Reid, Anderson Cooper, Wolf Blitzer, Jake Tapper, Sean Hannity, they're all professional liars for the establishment.
Unknown
I mean it could be more obvious.
Jimmy Dore
In March 12, 2024, Adam Schiff makes a public show of criticizing Robert Ewer. That's the guy who was supposed to. He was in charge. He was the investigator who was hired to investigate if Joe Biden mishandled classified documents, which he did. And Robert Hoor, after interviewing Joe Biden. Joe Biden couldn't remember what he was supposed to say or even knew what he was talking about. And so after that interview, which, by the way, they prepped Joe Biden for. For a week straight. Three hours a day. Three hours a day. He couldn't remember what he was supposed to say. He couldn't remember what they were talking about. So this guy, Robert Hewer, the investigator, concluded that Joe Biden is too demented and that a jury would never convict him. So here is Adam Schiff criticizing Robert or for including Biden's poor mental state in his report. He said, well, I don't think we should prosecute him because a jury would never commit. So they were upset that he told the truth again. Nine months later, the Wall Street Journal reports that the White House had to cancel national security meetings due to Biden's poor mental state. Let's watch in the rules. Mr. Her what is in the rules is you don't gratuitously do things to prejudice the subject of an investigation. When you're declining to prosecute, you don't gratuitously add language that you know will be useful in a political campaign. You were not born yesterday. You understood exactly what you were doing. It was a choice. You certainly didn't have to include that language. You could have said vis a vis the documents that were found at the university. The president did not recall. There is nothing more common.
Tim Walz
You know this.
Unknown
I know this. There is nothing more common with a.
Jimmy Dore
Witness of any age when asked about events that are years old to say I do not recall. Indeed, they're instructed by their attorney to.
Unknown
Do that if they have any question about it.
Jimmy Dore
You understood that you made a choice that was a political choice. It was the wrong choice. Mr. Chairman, I yield back, gentlemen. Yield.
Unknown
What a scumbag. What he just said is so despicable because you knew that you should have lied.
Jimmy Dore
That's what he's saying.
Unknown
The only reason Biden got off is because his brain is goo.
Jimmy Dore
That's right.
Unknown
Why he so it's not gratuitous. It's the literal reason that he's not.
Jimmy Dore
Being he's saying why are you including an accurate assessment of what you you found when you investigated and interviewed Mr. Biden here?
Unknown
Mr.
Chris Cillizza
Her.
Jimmy Dore
What is in the rules is you don't gratuitously do things to prejudice the subject of an investigation. When you're declining to prosecute, you don't gratuitously add language that you know will be useful in a political campaign. You were not born yesterday. You understood exactly what you were doing. It was a choice you certainly didn't have. What is a choice here is him Lying to the American public constantly about everything. Russia gate.
Unknown
But he's told the truth here.
Jimmy Dore
Russia Gate, January 6th. No, what he's doing is he's trying to pretend that the investigator was the one making it political. He's the one making it political.
Unknown
I know that, but I'm saying to say the re. The one reason Joe didn't get prosecuted for his mishandling, because they're prosecuting Trump. The whole reason Joe got off is he's senile. And it's obvious to the guy interviewing him he can't prosecute. And this poor guy who looks young probably didn't know how the game is played. What I would have done if I was him is prosecuted him and let Joe testify.
Jimmy Dore
Right?
Unknown
And go, no, he's great, Joe.
Jimmy Dore
Here's. Of course, we get. We hear you remember this? Joe Scarborough, right?
Unknown
This is my favorite.
Jimmy Dore
This is my favorite. This is my favorite. He goes full state. This is like if you were watching Chinese TV or North Korean TV or old Soviet Union tv. They don't even do this stuff in Russia anymore.
Unknown
Fu.
Jimmy Dore
But comparing that guy's mental state, I've said it for years now.
Chris Cillizza
He's cogent.
Jimmy Dore
But I undersold him when I said he was cogent. He's far beyond cogent. In fact, I think he's better than he's ever been intellectually, analytically, because he's been around for 50 years. And, you know, I don't know if people know this or not. Biden used to be a hothead.
Tim Walz
Sometimes that Irishman would get in front of the reasoning.
Jimmy Dore
Sometimes he would say things he didn't want to say. This is. And. And. And I don't really. You know what? I don't really care. Start your tape right now because I'm about to tell you the truth. And F you, if you can't handle the truth, start your tape. Because for the first time all morning, I'm going to tell the truth. Why do you. You have to signal you're going to tell the truth. By the way, the reason he says that, because that's what liars do when they're about to tell the biggest lie they've ever told. And here it comes. That's like when someone says, hey, I'm a straight shooter. You know, that guy's a liar.
Unknown
Wait, Jimmy, hold on. I gotta get my tape started.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah, get your tape started. This version of Biden, intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever. Not a close second. And I've known him for years. The Brzezinskis have known him for 50 years. If it weren't the truth, I wouldn't say it.
Unknown
Okay, Jimmy, can I just say something? I think Joe is right, and for two reasons. This Biden is not only less racist, but he probably doesn't shower with his kids anymore.
Jimmy Dore
That's right. You could just see his CIA handler that morning prepping Joe Scarborough for his show. Okay, Joe, now you've got. You got to come at this very aggressively because studies show that America loves being scolded by someone who sells soap on tv. Don't worry. This is going to work out great. Don't worry about it. Start your tape right now, because I'm about to tell you the truth. Okay, first of all, who's still using tape? What's the deal, Joe? Do you still stop your car with your feet like Fred Flintstone too? You're using tape. Start your tape. And of course, if you don't agree with Morning Joe, Fu America. That's right, F you, America is in an abusive relationship with msnbc. Just so you know. And there's all the proof anybody ever needed. Kurt. He's referring to him as a version of Biden, making us believe that there's a giant warehouse full of Bidens. Like a scene from Westworld.
Unknown
Biden 4.0.
Jimmy Dore
Dude, if it's not the truth, he wouldn't say it. That's what he said. If it's not the truth, I wouldn't say it. That's exactly what a liar says. Why would that even come up?
Unknown
Yeah, why?
Jimmy Dore
Who thinks of in terms of, oh, I better only say the truth. That's supposed to be a given. But not to liars like Joe Scarborough on Morning Joe. So this is just some of my favorite. Now we have Chris Cilliza, professional liar for the corporate media. Now, after Wall Street Journal wrote this article saying that Joe Biden, who everybody knew he was demented from day one, now he comes out and gives me a culpa. Chris Aliza. He's going to apologize. You think I'm kidding? Watch.
Chris Cillizza
As a reporter, I have a confession to make. I should have pushed harder earlier. For more information about Joe Biden's mental.
Jimmy Dore
And physical well being, I should have pushed harder. You mean you should have pushed at all. I should have pushed. You know, I just didn't do a good enough job. Never. I'm always doing great. So let's listen to it again.
Chris Cillizza
As a reporter, I have a confession to make. I should have pushed harder earlier. For more information about Joe Biden's mental and Physical well being and any signs of decline. So let me explain any signs of decline. Joe Biden was president from 2020 to 2024. I worked at CNN through 2022. During that time, the early part when I was at CNN 2020-2022, people would regularly, Republicans would regularly ping me and say, why don't you ask more questions to Joe Biden and how he's doing? He's 76, 77, 78 year old man. And I would sort of brush them off. Because what I would say is, well, there's no obvious evidence that he's declining. Yeah, he moves a little slower, he talks a little slower, but there's no evidence that he's declining and there's no.
Jimmy Dore
There'S no actual evidence that he's declining. You know, unless you watch several videos of Joe Biden for yourself, there's no actual evidence. Here we go.
Chris Cillizza
The White House and the people around Joe Biden were absolutely adamant that suggesting anything, asking the question about whether he was in some physical, mental or both decline was offensive. How could you. It's age shaming. And I think that impacted me at some level because while I did ask the question from time to time of, you know, not directly the White House, but aides and people around in that orbit, I didn't really push on it, if I'm being honest now. Once I left CNN and once it became a little bit more clear to me about Biden's age, I think I did write pretty regularly and talk pretty regularly about how I wasn't sure that this guy was up to it. And then Obviously after the June 27th.
Jimmy Dore
Debate, everybody, you mean, after I lost my job at CNN and it was safe and it was, I was, I was, I started to kind of around the edges talk a little bit more about this. So he's, so he's apologizing for not looking into something that he was so convinced about. He should have looked into it more. That's what he's saying, Jimmy.
Unknown
Look at his apartment. You think in New York that's cheap?
Jimmy Dore
Of course not.
Unknown
He doesn't pay rent.
Chris Cillizza
Including me was writing and talking about it. The reason that I bring this up is in the last 48 hours, there have been two stories, one by the New York Times and one by the Wall Street Journal, that document the decline of Joe Biden and how we probably should have known then and reported then what we know now.
Unknown
So why.
Chris Cillizza
That's what's got me thinking about the fact that I probably should have pushed harder on the Biden age stuff. Because in retrospect, it's clear that the people close to him knew that at best he had some good days and some bad days. June 27, the debate clearly was a bad day. But if the bad day was that bad, as bad as he performed on that debate stage, the fact that he had been President without a whole lot of questions being asked about his physical and mental decline, and I'll add, the fact that he continued to be president from June 27 until January 20, 2025, I think is a little bit concerning and begs the question of, like, what? When did people near him know? What did they know? And why did they not share? I get protecting Biden's privacy, but he's the President of the United States, right? Like, this isn't. This isn't just your grandpa who you want to like, take the keys from, but you're not. To his car, but you're not totally sure how to approach it. This is the sitting President of the United States who will continue to be after June 27th.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah. Why? Why? Why all the, all the more serious your lack of investigation. Because this was the sitting President of the United States. And it was obvious to anybody who watched Joe Biden for five seconds on video, the guy who didn't know how to get on or off a stage. That's what led to my joke, why don't they buy him a dog to lead him off? Stay. They can't buy him a dog. And, and so this guy's like, yeah, you know, this is really serious. Yeah, I know. That's why you guys suck so extra hard. That's why Chris Cilliza is a liar for money. That's why he has a nice apartment in Manhattan.
Unknown
That's why he number one first.
Jimmy Dore
And he's, he's pretending now that, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is really important. You know what? Those guys were lying to me. That's what. That's the old Chris Cuomo defense about. Oh, they were. The government was telling me Ivermectin was horse paced. That was lied to. Yeah, I know you're supposed to assume they're lying. You. You liar. And so, and Chris Cuomo knew they were lying, just like this guy knew that they were. That Joe Biden was demented. But when he worked at cnn, just like Chris Cuomo when he worked at cnn, their money was paid for by the establishment. They weren't allowed to tell the truth. And they were okay with that. He's 100% okay with not telling the truth. 100%.
Unknown
He's worse. I think Lizzo's worse than Cuomo because Fredo, okay. Is from a political family of Democrats. It's like the level of pressure on him and him. He's more of a blank. I feel this guy's supposed to be an actual journalist. We know Chris Cuomo is not a journalist. He's a talking head. But isn't this guy. Isn't this pedigree that he's a realtor?
Jimmy Dore
He's supposed to be a real reporter.
Unknown
I think Chris Cuomo doesn't remember anything he said on CNN because he read it off a prompter. Just like the movie Anchorman. He's brick. I really do think that about him. Him because his producer, like this guy, presumably. And probably not, but presumably this guy comes up with his own stuff, his own material. Chris Cuomo. It's being written for him by a producer.
Jimmy Dore
Am I wrong?
Chris Cillizza
Is the president for another six months. And we don't know how far back signs of this physical and mental decline went.
Unknown
We do.
Jimmy Dore
Yes, we do. Again, he's still lying. Or we don't know how far. Yes, we do. At least 2019, when he was running for president. At least then.
Unknown
It's amazing what higher education and bona fides are. It's like I'm allowed to say the truth. I can see with my eyes because I have enough schooling you who can see this way ahead of me. Like that old fable, the emperor has no clothes. Because this is not a new thing. You are supposed to. Are you an expert?
Chris Cillizza
Don't put it just on myself or just on journalists, because I know journalists did ask and I can tell you. I mean, I know from my experience there was a shame factor that went into that. A shape factor worked to make you feel bad when you asked whether he was up being president, running for president again and serving as president for another.
Jimmy Dore
So I'm going to ask really important questions. As long as someone doesn't make me feel bad about them, I'm going to ask. Really? These guys are supposed to be reporting and asking questions of the most powerful people in the world. That's your job. Your job is to find out when they're lying and expose them. But there's like they would make me feel bad. Talk about a beta male. The exact opposite of what you. But of course, this is the guy who gets elevated to the top of journalism in America because those are the. That's the kind of people that the establishment and the billionaires want. They want to cuck. And a beta male like that who's going to be easily shamed from asking a real question. And even if he knows the truth, which he did, he'll never tell it because they're going to make them feel bad. Meaning? Meaning they're going to. They're going to ostracize you from the group.
Unknown
Yeah.
Jimmy Dore
Like all my friends did over Russiagate, Ukraine and Covid. And I still did it. I still told the truth. Because what is the fucking point? I want to stay friends with a bunch of assholes who don't have enough dignity, integrity and courage to tell the truth about the biggest story of their life. Covid. I give a fuck about staying friends with those people or being shamed or ostracized. Shame on those people. I can hold my head up high and look myself in the mirror. This guy never had any integrity. That's why. That's how he got to be where he is. That's how people like Joe Scarborough get there. And Rachel Maddow and Chris Hayes and Lawrence O'Donnell and Anderson Cooper. Because they don't have any integrity. That's how you get there.
Unknown
Jimmy, are you, as a young guy. As a young guy, are you impressed though at least that in his quest to not be ashamed, he has become absolutely shameless?
Jimmy Dore
Yeah. Haha. I think there's more to this.
Chris Cillizza
Four years. How could you. You know, and they did a very good job. At least until they couldn't hide it anymore. Of hiding it. Of making it so that it was very hard to know. Yes. But he didn't do a lot of press conference. Yes. He didn't do a lot of media interviews. But you know, when he did things, the thing I always remember is he gave the State of the Union speech this earlier this year. He was fine.
Jimmy Dore
Okay. Again, he's still. He's still alive. It was really hard to tell. It was easy to tell.
Unknown
We made. Me and Kyle made a fresh press episode just based on his insane State of the Union with the bright red background.
Jimmy Dore
No, that wasn't a State of the Union. That was just some speech he gave trying to demonize MAGA and split the country. That was the red. Yeah.
Unknown
Oh, the State of the Union. State of you when he was killed.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah. When he was screaming at the top of his lungs the whole time like a madman. Like someone who's demented and they're deaf person. Yeah. Or a deaf person.
Chris Cillizza
There were no obvious signs of declining. Yes, he looked like a 70, you know, 80 year old guy. But he didn't.
Unknown
It didn't.
Chris Cillizza
I wasn't like this man cannot under no circumstances be president.
Jimmy Dore
So he also doesn't know anybody who's old because there are some people that are 80 and look youthful. That's right. Are able to function. That's right. And this. This is so disturbing that I'm seeing journalist after journalists come out and they're like, well, I should have asked the harder question. You're right, Jimmy. It's like, yeah, you didn't ask the hard question. And they're still not asking the hard question. Like, who's running the country? Like, who's running the country now, wait.
Unknown
My grandfather at 96 years old, I held conversations with him and he did nothing. Like Biden. Stop saying age. That's the big. That in.
Jimmy Dore
My dad was 912 years old. We had fine conversation at my nephew's wedding. No problem.
Chris Cillizza
Hiding it for a long time. Journalists. And I put myself here. You've got to. We should have been pushier. We should have. I should have. I don't speak for everyone. I should have not let the shame campaign to make you feel bad for asking the question get to me. Because it's now clear from both the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times piece that there was real deterioration even before. And by the way, all the reporting that we've seen since the June 27 debates, not just these two stories, that there was real and significant decline in Joe Biden and that it was being managed by the people around him. They were insulating him. They were keeping.
Jimmy Dore
You did it. You part of it.
Chris Cillizza
And that should have been something we knew more about.
Unknown
You know what? I'm going to say this, and you might think it doesn't apply, but I don't trust anyone with bisexual glasses frames. And by that I mean his are blue.
Jimmy Dore
That's all I mean.
Unknown
And there's something about that that is so dishonest, I don't know how else to put.
Jimmy Dore
Let me think about. Do I have a pair of blue glasses? Yes, I like blue glasses. I have. I don't think I have a pair. No, you don't. But I want. But I used to have. I think I had a light blue one. Here we go. So here's Mahamaga lady. This is what she says about Chris. Aliza Smith didn't just not ask questions about Joe Biden because the Biden White House told him it would be ages to do. Sh. To do.
Chris Cillizza
So, no, this guy was in on it.
Jimmy Dore
That's right. All these guys were in on it.
Unknown
Yes.
Jimmy Dore
Here is what Chris. Because they looked at it as Fighting Trump and fighting Hitler. That's why they were all in on it. That's why they all lied.
Unknown
Chick know how old is she? 20.
Jimmy Dore
She knows it. Ciliza wrote for CNN at the time.
Unknown
Republicans keep trying to make Biden's mental capacity an issue.
Jimmy Dore
That's the headline and the piece reads, this is the sort of gross, lowest common denominator politics that drive people away from public life. If Republicans have some sort of proof that Biden is declining, they should bring it forward. So Chris Cilliza didn't give in to them shaming him. He was the one doing it to other people. Just like Chris Cuomo. Chris Cuomo was the one being lied to about Ivermectin. He was the one lying to you about Ivermectin and shaming other people for telling the truth. That's what corporate news is. And that's what my old friends in Hollywood think. We still need to censor people like me, but not people like CNN and MSNBC and the New York Times and the Washington Post. Yeah, they're all in on it. They're all constantly lying. Chomsky proved this with manufacturing consent over 25 years ago.
Unknown
Well, you know what, Jimmy? They're not all in. What they're doing is. It's like you're checking out and giving into a hypnotic suggestion because they say the same phrases over and over again. Right. Democracy's on the ballot. That kind of thing. Very similar to Rwanda with cut the tall trees on the radio. So they don't want to have to think about it. What they want is for it to be handled like an app. So that's how they're all in. They're all in on not being conscious of anything going on and going with the herd. And you're an asshole.
Jimmy Dore
That's right.
Unknown
Do you care about your career?
Jimmy Dore
So I always thought so. That's the weirdest thing that has I've experienced in Hollywood is that I came to Hollywood not as an actor, but as a stand up comedian. And I always wanted to be George Carlin. That was what I wanted to be. I wanted to be George Carlin. Attacks, problems and. Yeah. And so I always. That's why I always liked being part of the comedy community, because we didn't go along with the herd. We were the ones.
Unknown
I thought that, too.
Jimmy Dore
We were the ones who got to stand up and say that the emperor has no clothes and we got to poke holes in the status quo and we got to push back on things that. But then that all went away when Donald Trump became president. That all went away even before you were all. You weren't allowed to tell the truth. People got mad at me for telling the truth about Barack Obama being a complete piece of it and a warmonger. People got occupied.
Chris Cillizza
You got where it started.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah, that's right. So you weren't allowed to tell the truth to. I'm talking about comedy comedians.
Unknown
Yeah. I'm exempt from your stupid star rules. From your job.
Jimmy Dore
Yes.
Unknown
That's why I took this job, so I don't have to observe the nonsense you do in a corporate environment.
Jimmy Dore
But that all changed, you know, even just me, when I supported Tulsi Gabbard. That was it. I became completely. I was already. Because I wouldn't. I wouldn't vote for Hillary Clinton. And I told people not to, and I told people, make Hillary Clinton come get your vote. She's not doing that. Hillary could come get my vote. She won't. Just like Joe Biden wouldn't come get my vote.
Unknown
You're supposed to be beta.
Jimmy Dore
Just like. Just like Kamala Harris. Come get my vote. They won't come get my vote. They won't offer me anything to vote for.
Unknown
You have to woo them.
Jimmy Dore
Yes. So they. And so comedy and comedy, they all flipped it. So now that's what I. That's what I loved about. And I'm still a comedian, and I'm still upholding the traditions of comedy where you get to tell the truth and go against the herd. But that's what journalism is. It's all herd thinking. It's cult like thinking. My old. My old comedy friends, they still say ivermectin is horse pace. They still have cult thinking. They still say, I thank God for the vaccine. I thank God for. And I can't believe you would criticize Fauci. I've had people in comedy say that to me.
Unknown
I wish you'd say their names so I could trash them.
Jimmy Dore
I've had people say that to me in comedy.
Unknown
I know.
Jimmy Dore
I can't believe that you would.
Unknown
I would trash them publicly.
Jimmy Dore
What are you, a Trumper? No, I'm a comedian. You're supposed to make fun of the powerful.
Unknown
Well, that's, you know, Jimmy, that's why I always, when I'm talking with anybody, go just, you know, I don't believe in America. And the reason I'm saying that is because it's so shocking to them. But I don't want to hear that. I like Trump because I don't believe in this shit.
Jimmy Dore
Right.
Unknown
So I want to establish What I'm saying, I'm not a campaigner. Like I'm allowed to point out facts like how Adam McKee yelling at the guy for doing his job. Yeah, I'm not supposed to campaign for you. I'm supposed to do a thing separate from you. But they want you to campaign. I'm with her.
Jimmy Dore
That's right, I'm with her. So here, there's more. So, so this is Chris Saliza. So all these guys are liars. So Chris Cuomo, Chris Cilliza, Chris Hayes, all the Chris's, they're all liars. The Rachel Maddows, the, the Anderson Coopers, the. They're all liars because they're all in on it. They were all in on it. Just like all my comedian friends. They were all in on the lie. Oh, the economy's doing great. How do you know? Restaurants are full. They would say this on stage.
Unknown
Well, they're dumb.
Jimmy Dore
Yeah, they're not dumb. They're. They're in a cult. Here we go. If they don't, they should stop doing.
Chris Cillizza
What they're doing immediately.
Jimmy Dore
So let me play that again. This is Chris. Elizabeth Smith didn't just not ask questions about Joe Biden because the Biden White House told him it would be ages.
Chris Cillizza
To do, shout to do so now.
Jimmy Dore
This guy was in on it. All these guys were in on it. Here is what Chris Cilliza wrote for CNN at the time.
Unknown
Republicans keep trying to make Biden's mental capacity an issue.
Jimmy Dore
That's the headline and the piece reads. This is the sort of gross lowest common denominator politics that drive people away from public life. If Republicans have some sort of proof that Biden is declining, they should bring it forward. If they don't, they should stop doing.
Chris Cillizza
What they're doing immediately.
Jimmy Dore
That's Chris Cilliza. He was doing the thing he claimed someone was doing to him. They were shaming me, they were bullying me. They were making me feel bad for asking questions. No, you were the one doing that. And now here he is lying about it. Lying. And that's what, that's what a corporate journalist is. A professional paid liar. Hey, become a premium member.
