Get ready for an outstanding entertainment program, The Jimmy Doors show.

Hi, this is Jimmy. Who's this? Judy, it's Vince Vaughn. Oh, hi. How are you doing?

I'm freezing. What? Why?

Where are you, buddy? I, I oh, know, I'm stranded, I'm lost, I.

OK, slow down, tell me what happened.

I was at a Trump rally last night on the outskirts of town. It was amazing Donald Trump was there and the spirit of America. But then he left Gibeah. He took off in an airplane and they didn't make arrangements to bosses back home. So we all just sort of stood around waiting and it got colder and colder. So so I decided to wander off into the forest because I thought maybe it would be warmer in there, you know, because of the trees.

And now I'm lost in the forest and it's nighttime and I'm lonely and frightened. Oh, OK.

Why did you call our show instead of someone who could actually help you? I don't know.

I'm sorry. I'm not thinking very clearly right now.

Oh, OK. Sorry. He just left as Jimi, how could you how could he do that? How could he just abandon us? Vince, it's because he doesn't care about you or anyone or anything. That can't be true, that man was put here by God to save America. This suffering that I am enduring due to his actions, it must have some kind of meaning. No, it doesn't. It must be it must be the only way I can process my predicament while keeping my sense of identity attached.

This sounds kind of like a religious thinking. He's tried to teach us something. Uh. Oh, my God. Oh, but why? This is a lesson just to be stronger so we could fight for him and the path to strength leads to suffering. Joseph Campbell Sabich.

I don't I don't think it's also clear to me now. Wow, what an honor. Thank you. Donald Trump. It is an honor to be fucking freezing to death on your behalf, sir.

Vince, you need to get to safety, buddy. What a rejecters beautiful gift I've just been given. No, excuse me. Thank you. I will be suffering right here for at least a little while longer. Maybe maybe get a little frostbite like a Revolutionary War patriot. Wait, what was that, Vince?

I think I heard a wharf holder. OK, I got to get the fuck out of here. OK, Vince, what do you see?

OK, to my right, I see some buildings and lights in the distance to the left is very dark, just dense forest as far as the eye could see.

All right. I need you to go right towards the buildings and the lights. Are you sure? Because I would stick it to the left. It might be warmer there because of the more tree. OK.

You seem to be under the impression that trees generate heat and they do not. Please go. Right.

OK. OK, fine. But I'm a little nervous about the wolf. What else lives in woods? Bigfoot dinosaurs.

The dinosaurs are extinct birds.

Yeah I know, but all of them. How can we be so sure. Is that not the very arrogance of man? I promise you you need to get to safety, Vince.

All right. OK, OK. All right, you know what, we're going. There's a McDonald's like 500 yards away, too. All right. A nice chat, Jimmy. I hope you liberal policies enjoy getting your asses handed on November 3rd. Margot, baby, I'm going to get a filet of fucking fish.

I guess something like bull shit they can't afford to miss. He has his share of the media speeds and jumps the media somewhere down the chimney to show.

Hey, everybody, welcome to this week's Jimmy Dorje Show, I'm Jimmy Dore, and I've been canceled more times in the five cent stamp this week, Pope Francis called covid-19 a lady who must be obeyed. It's probably the closest the Catholic Church will ever come to giving women control over their lives.

Am I right? Come on.

You know, the biggest problem Democrats are going to face after winning the White House is Trump leaving the country because that means they'll actually have to come up with a platform.

Mm hmm.

Pam? Hey, scientists just announced after years of searching, they found water on the moon. Don't worry, we're not going to ban fracking there either. You know, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope also discovered an asteroid with a metal content that could be worth 10000 quadrillion dollars put into Earth terms. That's how much it now cost to go to college. Hey, what's coming up on today's Jimmy Dorje show? Why does journalism suck in America? The answer just may surprise you.

Or will it? It had something to do with the richest man on the planet and the CIA. Plus, on 60 Minutes, Kamala Harris is asked if she is a progressive or a socialist. And that's when the interview gets weird. Democrats arrogantly believe they have the so-called black vote locked up, but do they really? The answer is going to surprise them. America is a failed state. Don't believe me. Just see how the establishment expects. Go fund me to save the American people.

Plus, we got phone calls today from Vince Vaughn, Chuck Schumer, Barack Obama and Joe Biden, plus a lot more. That's today. And a Jimmy Dojo. Amy CONI Barrett is confirmed to the Supreme Court. You know why? Because Democrats are feckless frauds, the Democrats have allowed Republicans to seat over 250 federal judges and three Supreme Court justices without a fight. These right wing judges will be with us for the rest of our lives. Democrats could have denied unanimous consent for procedural votes.

They didn't. Democrats could have demanded quorum from Republicans for process votes. They did it.

Democrats could have filibustered amendments and filled endless procedural challenges. They did it. Pelosi could have coordinated impeachment of Trump or William Barr to force the Senate into a procedural session. She didn't. Democrats could have gummed up the nomination, but they didn't have the guts. In a press conference last week, Chuck Schumer floated the possibility of the Democratic Senate caucus denying quorum. He didn't. Dems could have used every trick to stall the nomination past Election Day, but Democrats are lazy, arrogant and stupid.

It wasn't Jill Stein that prevented Democrats from having any balls, the Democratic Party leadership is a disgrace. The only power they wield is forwarding the Republican Wall Street agenda without appearing to be the authors.

Yet they will continue to fundraise off their Supreme Court failure. That's the real game here. Democrats approve these judges because Wall Street approves them and they get the added bonus that progressive legislation will be almost impossible unless the court is expanded.

The political theater is endless. So that's what I have to say about that. But guess what? Look who Joe Biden is looking to put in his cabinet. Gina Raimondo being considered as Biden's treasury secretary, she's the Rhode Island governor, she would not be a popular selection among progressives or organized labor.

Not popular with progressives, right on brand for the Democrats. Wow, Joe Biden's transition team has informed Democratic officials that Gina Raimondo is under consideration as the next secretary of the Treasury should Biden win the election, multiple sources have confirmed other options include Ebenezer Scrooge, the ghost of Andrew Carnegie and an Ayn Rand hologram.

This is what you're voting for. You guys vote, you happy, you guys proud of yourselves? This is what you voted for.

This is your antidote to Trump I. Raimondo has built her career on subservience to Wall Street, and her selection would be an affront to organized labor, said David Segal, executive director of Demand Progress. She has built her career on subservience to Wall Street and her selection would be an affront to organized labor. So she's a big grassroots organizer, right? That's what I'm getting.

Reymundo, governor of Rhode Island, is a former venture capitalist who took the governor's mansion on the strength of millions of dollars in Wall Street donations. Raimondo's name will stir the long memories of union leaders. Union leaders will all give out a collective shit.

Unions have held a grudge with her for years over her tenure as state treasurer, why would she do well when she cut pension benefits for public employees while steering over a billion dollars in state money to hedge fund investments?

So she's a real life supervillain. Not amazing. She's a real live supervillain, and Joe Biden is going to put her in his cabinet. This is what you're voting for. Here's 009 Father Joe Biden, Paul Ryan was correct when he did the tax code, what's the first thing he decided we had to go after Social Security and Medicare.

Now we need to do something about Social Security, Medicare. That's the only way you can find room to pay for it. He gets giddy about screwing over Medicare and he gets giddy about it. They just gave five trillion dollars to the richest oligarchs in the country and he's telling you we can't afford. Social Security, he needs to lean closer to the mike to avoid smelling his own bullshit. That's what I think he does. You know, he's he leans so close to that bike.

You think it was an eight year old girl's hair? Hmm. Senator, we have a deficit, we have Social Security and Medicare looming, the number of people on Social Medicare is now 40 million people are going to be 80 million in 15 years. Would you consider looking at those programs, age of eligibility for cost of living? Put it all on tape and the answer is absolute.

You have you have to you got I mean, come on. I mean, common sense says that you got to work well here. What's wrong?

You said my you know, the political advisers say to me is, whoa, don't touch that third. Look, the American people aren't stupid. It's real simple proposition we have to do. We you and I were talking about Bob Dole earlier. I was one.

All right. I've had enough. American people aren't stupid. They know we can't afford to take care of our old people. We got to cut Medicare and Social Security. We're in a huge deficit hole. How are we going to get out of this hole unless we push a bunch of old people in it?

He's been trying to cut Social Security, Medicare his whole goddamn career. Now he's going to put a woman in the cabinet who just cut retirement benefits for union workers. OK, wow, a lawyer says the family of a black man who was killed when police fired on him more than a dozen times in Philadelphia had called for an ambulance to get him help with the mental health crisis, not for police intervention. So I just want to point out the reason why I showed you all these clips, because of who he's putting in his cabinet and Joe Biden has been trying to loot Social Security and Medicare his whole life.

And they just did loot the Treasury, they got five trillion dollars for the richest oligarchs and so. A lawyer says the family of a black man who was killed when police fired on him more than a dozen times had called for an ambulance to get him help. Not for police intervention, Joe Biden. Biden says no excuse for looting. So it's OK for his rich friends in suits and ties to loot the American treasury, what black people are being gunned down in the street, left and right by the state?

Without any repercussions. That's the looting that he wants. There's no excuse for it, the other looting, it's OK. Hey, Joe, they were just shooting Wal-Mart in the leg, they were looting a. Rumsfeld says looting is a transition to freedom. You'll remember that Iraq war, you you voted for it. You were you had your finger at people for not supporting even after it started. And everyone knew it was horrible. Joe Biden, the Iraq war.

Remember that? The Iraq war that you loved. Well, the guy who ran it said looting is a transition to freedom, so maybe that's what they're doing when they're looting Joe. Federal Reserve to lend an additional one trillion today to large banks, that's not looting, though, right? That's not looting. And the first floor, you got your truck, this is how it started talking, right, and Harris, how the fuck was talking about.

Police the first week talking about voting in the author of the crime bill, himself a top cop, the map method. The map method. For this kind of little movement, we say not fuckin Instagram post, but people are trying to live.

So there you go. There's black people saying after a whole summer of protests, we're about to vote in the author of the crime bill and someone who calls herself the top cop.

Hey, maybe if I vote for Trump, I can push him to the left. So expecting Biden and Harris. To do anything about police brutality is like expecting an insurance company to solve our health care crisis. That's not happening. So there you go, so now I mean, I don't know. I could I I'm just warming up doing these segments about how horrible Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are because you could do it and his and his cabinet. I mean, this is amazing.

This is a this is like Nixon's shit that Joe Biden's doing. And you got to vote for it or you're not a good person, and then everybody else can go to sleep after Joe Biden's prowar and go back to brunch. OK, wow. Wow. And they got, uh, they got all those Progressive's AOC dorsum, uh, the sunshine, all the environmental groups endorse him. What does that group called Why am I blanking on the names are called Sunshine.

What does that environmental group run run by the young kids? The young kids, the young kids sunshine movement, what is it, the Sunshine Movement, I think it's called maybe that's old. I don't know. Sunrise, sunrise, that's have young people uniting to start it. I was right, young people. I was right, OK. So they're there and they've got their. Joe Biden's got their endorsement. Hey, not everything we want. So there you go.

And all the justice Democrats are telling you to vote for, this is it, this is what this is why you vote for progressives. So they support this shit, really, instead of screaming about it.

And now you know why Joe Biden becomes president, things are going to get worse, man, way worse. Who do you think Joe Biden is going to take care of? He's going to take care of the billionaire class first and then the millionaire class.

And by the time he gets around to you, it's going to be just like it was with covid. They got nut. Wow. Well, Chuck Schumer is on the line. I wonder how he's taken the Amy Byrd confirmation. Hello.

Oh, my goodness. This is the last straw. Jimi, I am almost beyond words with these Republicans and all their shenanigans and such.

So what happens next, Chuck? I'll tell you what happens next. And excuse my language, but it's time to really get down to brass tacks and lay down the law to these bullies that they can't ride roughshod over this country's traditions. What's your strategy, Chuck?

I'm going to come right out and say it. There is no way to express this gently, I am formally voicing my opposition to Amy CONI Barrett and you may quote me on that.

Yeah, but the Senate just confirmed her to the Supreme Court. I understand your frustration to me. And I assure you right down to my bottom dollar, Nancy and I will use every arrow in our quivers to stop dark money flooding into politics, the limiting of voting rights and curtailing the right to choose. This is our sacred pledge to you, the American voters.

OK, but why didn't you do anything before? Well, this just came out of the blue, didn't it, like a freight train? No one expected this to happen, Jimmy. Apparently, we're playing a whole new ball game here, my friend. These people just don't want to play by the rules with all their kibitzing and such. Well, I've added it ends here. Wow.

You sound angry. Angry is not an adequate word to describe it. Jimmy, I am miffed, miffed?

Yes, Jimmy, I know that Mitch McConnell thinks that this will eventually blow over, but he is wrong. The Republicans will never, never get that credibility back with these kind of antics. We have arrows.

So you're going to use those arrows Nancy talked about then?

Oh, yes. Make no mistake, we are very much prepared to use those arrows. We have quivers and quiver is full of arrows. And, boy, let me tell you, are we ever going to show them to the people? And we are going to display those arrows in a very stern and forceful manner for added emphasis so the whole world may see those arrows. Hmm.

Well, where where have you been? Where have those arrows been all this time? In our quiver, prepared for action. Yeah, and where the hell is your quiver? I think it's in the back of the closet, underneath the stairs, behind some old family pictures. You know how mom is about that stuff, you can't take it out without disturbing the other boxes. And before you know it, you got old Christmas decorations on the floor and tinsel everywhere and land's sakes alive.

I don't want to think about the disorder that happens once the cat gets in it. Oh, such a mess. You would not believe Christmas. Chuck, are you Jewish?

I'm covering all my bases anyway, I want the American people to know we will not stop this struggle. We have six more days until the election and I can almost guarantee the president will not try to confirm another justice before then. And that's all because the Democratic Party is out there in the trenches fighting for you.

Well, thanks for that inspiring message, Chuck. I can see why they call you the master of the Senate. You're welcome, Jimmy. Now comes the time I must ask something of you, all this impassioned pleading really takes a toll on our party's resources. Will you please take the time now to make a contribution?

No, thanks. Please, please, Dr.. We will be all right here. Don't worry anybody there. Thank you so much. By the way, for letting me sit here waiting for your reply. Oh, dear. Maybe he forgot I was on the line. All right. I'll make sure he'll call me back tomorrow. Dum dum, dum dum. OK, we'll talk later. I guess hanging up now, bye bye later. OK, bye.

Call me back. OK, this is Chuck Schumer. I'll just call back tomorrow. No problem.

But I built the cages, Joe.

Joe, who built the cages, who built those cages, Joe? He should have just said that all night. That and why don't you why don't you do this four years ago? Why didn't you do this four years ago? That's that's what he should have said to hold the first debate and this debate. And what, Jimi, are you suggesting that the problems that we're experiencing right now just didn't happen overnight? They did not start in January 2017, it turns out.

This is Frank Luntz, the right wing pollster, pollster. He tweeted this out, he says, Nearly my entire group of undecided say they're more disheartened instead of excited by this election compared to previous ones. Neither candidate speaks to me or my issues, they care more about winning than they do about serving. That's Frank Luntz, focus group. Not Michael Moore's. I just want to make sure that's not Jeffrey Toobin down on the bottom. Yeah, I just want to make sure going to anyway, she's interviewing three.

Working class black women. And who say they're not going to vote for for Joe Biden? I think that's Chris Jansing. Yeah. So here's some more of it. I am totally undecided. I write your name in at this point, usually by now I would have voted already, but I I'm just not comfortable with either one of them right now. What are you looking for? What do you need to hear?

Let's start at the what are you looking for. What do you what do you need to hear? How is the guy who wrote the crime bill disappointed you?

He. What are you looking for? You want them to actually do something for you? Do you want them to have a policy that makes your life better or the country's? Is that what you guys want? Crime bill, and the fact that he has not not only not apologized, not only he is not, he is not only not rectified every time he reverts back to well, it was some the Black Caucus members in the church where they were with the two.

OK, you fooled them as well. You know, you never said I'm sorry. You know, it's like I didn't do it. I want to hear an ironclad plan. I don't want to hear if this or if that or after the election. Does the presence of Kamala Harris on the Democratic ticket sway you at all? Not at all. I don't know who said she had our vote. She does not.

We were supposed to grab onto all who's who said she had our vote. Rich, she goes, Oh, that was me, snap.

By the way, they're asking for a long overdue apology from Joe Biden for the crime bill. They're asking for a long overdue apology. And even that's too much to ask for. Komala with the black girl magic, but that didn't happen because she didn't right or wrong, like I hold officials accountable. I don't care what color you are. And I think that too often we automatically think that because someone looks like you that they're going to have your best interests at heart.

And that's that's just not simply true. Look at Barack Obama, for instance. Joe Biden did the 1994 crime bill, which created mass incarceration, created more prisons, created longer sentencing, escalated the war on drugs and targeted African-Americans. That's Joe Biden and he was proud of it. He said, we do everything except hang you for jaywalking in our bill.

He was proud of it. Who who needs Nixon when you got Joe Biden, who needs Trump when you got Joe Biden? Liberals are absolutely livid at the prospect that black people might want something in exchange for their vote. So here's someone who tweets out, very undecided black women voters spoke to my colleague about why Joe Biden has yet to earn their vote, despite everything that Donald Trump has said and done during their presidency. I just don't get it, is what he's saying.

I just don't get it after everything you've seen from Biden, I mean from Trump. Well, here's some more here's some more stuff that is going to blow your mind.

This is from 2016, this is right after Trump beat Hillary Clinton. So New York Times and a reporter to some barbershops in Milwaukee to see why the black people would be voting and why Hillary lost. Many in Milwaukee neighborhood didn't vote and don't regret it. Yeah. To remember that, to remember that. The DNC not not learning from history. Mannan, severe, owner of the juice kitchen, said Barack Obama's election was like going to the beach, then he said eight years happened.

And that was at. And then eight years happen, their lives didn't get better. There's another guy in 54, a cook at Jake's Delicatessen, said he did not vote, we were stuck between Trump and Hillary. He said they really left us with no choice. The election was notable as much for the people who did not show up. As for those who did at the Milwaukee Barbershop, only two of them had voted. But there were no regrets, this is about the people who, after Trump got elected, they were not regretting not voting who minorities in Milwaukee were not regretting Trump being elected.

They were not regretting not voting for Hillary Clinton. I don't feel bad, Milwaukee is tired, both of them were terrible. They never do anything for us anyway. Talk of politics in the barbershop inevitably comes back to one man, Barack Obama. Mr. Obama's election infused many here with a feeling of connection to national politics they had never before experienced. But their lives have not gotten better. And sourness set in, so they voted for Barack Obama twice, their lives got worse and now sourness has set in.

I'm so numb, said John Tony forty five, he said no president in his lifetime had done anything to improve the lives of black people, including Mr Obama, whom he voted for twice. It's like I should have known this would happen. We're worse off.

Than before, but it's really Jill Stein's fault, right, or my fault or Susan Sarandon or anybody who doesn't have power or someone else who doesn't have power. Right. Not the people who actually could have gotten these votes. As far as the claims of racism that have dogged Mr. Trump, Mr. Babar wasn't so worried. It's better than smiling to my face, but going behind closed doors and voting against our kids, he said. Which is what Joe Biden does and did.

He was real, unlike a lot of liberal Democrats who are just as racist, but keep it hidden. He said, his jaw slathered with shaving cream. Still, he voted for Mrs. Clinton, as did many others here. Here is Ice Cube, the way look, they don't have a plan, everybody's, you know, talking about. Get Trump out, get Trump out, get Trump up, if you vote, that's going to happen on the first day.

So now what? Trump out now what what what do we get in the first 100 days? That's what we're trying to figure out, what do we actually get that we that they could give us overnight like that? They just put three trillion dollars out there and gave it to my friends, that's American taxpayer money. That's your money. That they just gave away Indianness half, 42 percent of black businesses closing none of that money. Where's where's our fucking bailout?

Where's the bailout, not the people that they that they didn't give us. Where's the bailout? I don't want to hear about deficit. I don't want to hear about what are our generation's going to have to pay, because if we don't have shit dangling shit anywhere to pay nothing. So we got to start something right now. Democrats don't seem like they got a plan. Republicans don't seem like they've got a plan for us. So how the hell are you going to vote for them?

Make them make them earn that vote. They can start today. They've got it. Yet they can start to make their earn that vote. Man, stop playing with these people and they'll stop playing with you. Wow, white Hollywood blue check, it would be really mad at that black guy, he's privileged. He doesn't know what he's talking about. How dare he not vote for the people who've been fucking him over his whole life? How dare you?

By the way, Joe Biden, it's a rich donors, nothing would fundamentally change if he's elected. I can't believe that this wasn't his campaign slogan. I have reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negroes greatest stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the Klu Klux Klan or but the white moderate. The white moderate who was more devoted to order than to justice, who prefers a negative peace, which is the absence of tension to a positive peace, which is the presence of justice.

Who constantly says, I agree with your goals, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action. Who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom? Who lives by the mythical concept of time and constantly advises to wait for a more convenient season. Who said that the white moderate was the greater obstacle? To black people than the Klu Klux Klan or who said this, Martin Luther King Jr. said this. And this is what he's talking about.

He's talking about this guy. The white moderate who was more devoted to order than to justice, who prefers a negative peace, which is the absence of tension to a positive peace, which is the presence of justice. There it is. The Negroes greatest stumbling block in his stride towards freedom is not the Ku Klux Klan or. But the white moderate. OK, there you go now, not maybe you know why blacks won't vote Biden.

Hey, Barack Obama's me from the campaign trail. Hello. All right, Jerry, I'm calling you from a campaign. I feel like I have purpose again. I'm so excited. It feels so good to get out of Martha's Vineyard. Our new place get so darn cramped.

Sometimes it feels good to get back in front of loving audiences again. Oh, yeah, Jimmy, I've given so many speeches on the now got couple pointing index finger knuckle karpal, podi index finger knuckle.

You know the thing where you qualify point at a non-threatening manner while sidestepping an important subject with bullshit dime store phraseology.

Wow. You're really working it. I know the crowds love it when I look into the air, hopefully. And fake gesticulate. Joe Biden's going to win this thing and continue the Obama legacy. Did you read the thing I just wrote for The New Yorker about our great struggle to give health care America your great struggle? It's probably the best presidential memoir ever. Beautifully written, walking on the South Lawn with the light fading in the streets of purple and gold.

And while I was engaged in the greatest struggle of my life to give everybody affordable health care where they could pick whatever doctor they want.

Did that ever happen? No fucking way. You made so many Republican roadblocks. I couldn't get anything done. No, no.

Then what legacy is Biden running on exactly? I just told you, asshole, access to health care based on class status and land ownership. You passed the ACA with 60 votes and modified it through reconciliation. The reconciliation bill contained the public option. And you took it out, you had the simple majority votes to keep it in. Why did you take it out, Barack?

And I got my Republican colleagues, I couldn't do that, then they'd roadblock all my legislation, but you kept saying they did anyway.

That's the progressive's fault for forcing us to put in the public option, which you had Harry Reid take out. Because we didn't want to anger our Republican colleagues, then they brought back all my legislation, but if you included the public option, maybe more voters would have come out for the 2010 midterms and you'd have had a Democratic Congress instead of losing it. Oh, I see what you're saying, if I follow through with the public option, I'd have a Democratic Congress and the power to do shit.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Well, I couldn't believe it. Why not? Because the next time Republicans take Congress, they might do the same thing, maybe not if you actually helped voters. Oh, I see what you're saying, help voters and I'll back to you and your party. Yeah. But I couldn't do that. Why not? I'm so fucking rich. I don't know anymore. Maybe I'll write about my next book, The Power of Nothing.

Hmm. Hey, who do you think karma is going to pick for a running mate in 2024? I put my hopes on Tom Cotton.

So, Cabela. Can I call her Cabela, you got like, uh huh, Jesus. Uh huh, uh huh. Let's put more poor people in prison, huh? Uh, all right.

So Kamala Harris, what, on 60 Minutes. And it was a guess. She laughed at nothing. She ran away from real issues and she gaslighted. So let's watch.

You're very different in the policies that you've supported in the past. You're considered the most liberal United States senator.

Oh, and what does that tell you? What does that tell you? She's the most liberal United States senator, a tool of Wall Street and a cop who had to be sued to let people out of prison. I somebody said that it actually was Mike Pence on the debate stage.

Yeah, well, actually that nonpartisan, I she's just again, she just cackles for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

And. And guvs track has rated you as the most liberal senator, you supported the Green New Deal, you supported Medicare for all, you've supported legalizing marijuana. Joe Biden doesn't support those things. So are you going to bring the policies, those progressive policies that you supported as senator into a Biden administration?

Oh, so what this news person is saying is you and Joe Biden are really different. I mean, he wrote the crime bill, you implemented it, see how different you guys are. I thought that this is fake controversy. Yes, and I also thought the reason why she had to tell Comilla all the things that she was progressive on, otherwise Comilla couldn't come up with a list anyways, right?

You're right. You're right, you're the most progressive in it. Unbelievable. You're considered the most liberal United States senator. They didn't include low level drug offenders in that assessment.

Bet. I'll be honest, when she. OK, let's go, let's keep going. What I will do and I promise you this, and this is what Joe wants me to do. Oh, yeah. This was part of our deal. I will always share with him my lived experience as it relates to any issue that we confront.

I will I will relate my lived experience. That's the that's the new buzzword. My lived experience. That's the new buzzword or term, you know. You know who else has a lived experience? Komala I know a guy who has a lived experience of being having Steve Manoogian steal his house from him illegally and then you not prosecuting him because you're a tool of Wall Street. What about that lived experience? Is that the lived experience? You're going to tell Joe about how to screw over fucking homeowners and old people in favor of the banks?

Is that your life? Because that's your real lived experience, your lived experience of growing up privileged? And I promised Joe that I will give him that perspective and always be honest with him. And is that a socialist or progressive perspective?

Oh, no, it is the perspective of of a woman who grew up a black child in America who was, I'll be honest, which she compared her to a socialist.

I laughed pretty hard to as pretty she. So that's that's a solid laugh.

So a prosecutor who also has a mother who arrived here at the age of 19 from India who also, you know, likes hip hop. What do you want to know? I want to give you I want to give you the average.

I don't know what she's laughing about, but she likes hip hop so much she can travel in the future to hear stuff that hasn't been released yet.

Did you know that, uh, what do you want to know? We need to address this.

OK, ready? Here's what. Aisha says she says, I can't get over the fact that when asked whether she'd pushed Biden to adopt Medicare for all or Green New Deal, Kamala Harris laughed hysterically and said no, she would be bringing her lived experience as a black woman who likes hip hop. What an exchange to define the times. I'm surprised he didn't show us her cool shoes. I'm cosponsoring Bernie Sanders Medicare for all bill, because health care is a right.

Add your name if you agree. Remember when she did that? Mm hmm. Not doing that, but here she is trying to win an Emmy. Watch this. I believe and it is personal, and I was actually very it was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country. And it was not only that, but you also worked with them to oppose busing.

And, you know, there was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools, and she was bused to school every day. And that little girl was me. So I will tell you that on this subject, it can.

Here we go. Do you agree today, do you agree today that you were wrong to oppose busing in America, though? Do you agree? I did not oppose busing in America. What I opposed is busing ordered by the Department of Education. That's what I opposed.

I was not a failure of. So that's her, that's her trying to get an Emmy. And then she goes. Here and says because in those debates, you landed haymakers on Joe Biden. I mean, they were his teeth were like chocolates all over the stage. And now I believe you that you're fully supportive of him. How does that transition happen? How do you go from being such a passionate opponent on such bedrock principles for you?

And now you guys seem to be pals.

It was a debate and not everybody landed punches like you did, though, and debate.

So. It was a debate. Come on, I don't actually care about that stuff, that's just shit I was saying. To try to score points at a debate. That's what she's saying. Come on, I don't care about that shit. That buzzing shit. I mean, it it was a debate that the whole reason literally it was in debate called a debate. I understand now to the debate. There were journalists there covering the debate. You know, at debates, everybody just lies and stuff, it doesn't say things they mean, you know, whatever that is, throw a lot of shit on the wall and see what sticks and that that's stuck.

It's like she's a psychopath. It's a debate debate, you're a journalist, there was a debate was called a debate.

Oh, I got she found a way to get out of that question. That's what she thinks. She's just going to that's what they do. She just keeps laughing.

And she's right. It was literally I debate ha literally literally a debate where there would be a debate.

Jesus, I should have been an actress. My. Here's someone I would not be standing here were it not for the education I received, and I know many, many of us will say the same thing, and I believe a child going without an education is tantamount to a crime. So I decided I was going to start prosecuting parents for truancy. Well, this was a little controversial in San Francisco. I'm going to I'm going I'm going to put the poorest people in jail for truancy.

Isn't that funny? Ha ha.

I'm not going to help people. And frankly, my staff went bananas, they were very concerned because we didn't know at the time whether I was going to have an opponent in my re-election race when I said, look, I'm done.

I mean, I'm doing some horribly draconian shit that the poorest, most vulnerable people in society. And I'm fucking bringing down the hammer of the government on them as hard as possible.

And I don't give a fuck. And my staff was I have like I don't care.

I'm a fuckin dead inside. This is a serious issue and I've got a little political capital and hey, education's important. Here's another here's an even more horrible idea, though. We're going to spend some of it, and this is what we did. We recognized that in that initiative as a prosecutor and law enforcement, I have a huge stick.

The school district has got a carrot.

Let's work in tandem around our collective objective and goal, which is to get those kids in school so that end on my letterhead. Now, let me tell you something about my letterhead.

When you're the D.A. of a major city in this country, usually the job comes with a badge and there is often an artistic rendering of said badge on your stationery. So I sent a letter out on my letterhead to every parent in the school district outlining the connection that was statistically proven between elementary school truancy, high school dropouts who will become a victim of crime and who will become a perpetrator of crime. We sent it out to everyone. A friend of mine actually called me and he said, come on, my wife got the letter.

She freaked out.

She brought all the kids into the living room, held up the letter, said, if you don't go to school, I was going to put you and me in jail.

And that funny.

Yes, we achieved the intended effect. Is that funny or people aren't scared to death enough, poor minority people aren't scared enough, we got scared, scurvy another. It's another way to put you in jail, get you in the system. Prison stocks went up right after Kamala Harris was confirmed as vice president. That's who Kamala Harris is actually going to do socialism for. The for profit prison industry like she always has. That's why she's giggling about locking people up, that's why she had to be sued by the federal government.

To have her release prisoners, prisoners in California that she would not release. Hey, Kamala Harris has to answer for not prosecuting Steve Manoogian, she likes prosecuting truants, but she will prosecute Wall Street criminals. Isn't that interesting? She goes, why didn't prosecute him because his kids weren't late for school, his kids went to school. So what he what I don't understand is what to do with that. How Kamala Harris fought to keep nonviolent prisoners locked up as California attorney general, she spent years subverting the 2011 Supreme Court ruling requiring the state to reduce its prison population.

The overseeing judicial panel nearly found the state in contempt of court. One wrote the crime bill, the other enforced it. Authoritarian establishment ticket all the way, nothing will fundamentally change, build more schools, not jails. Just joking. Build more jails is what Kamala Harris says. She's just joking. So there she was on 60 Minutes, that's who she is. That's what you're getting. You're getting two unbelievable right wing authoritarians in lefty clothing. They're not.

They're unbelievable right wing things are going to get way worse. What Joe Biden is president. So I know all the blue check assholes are going to go back to sleep. Andy Richter will be happy. As a city, he lives in turns into fucking Brazil. He'll be happy, though, because Trump won't be on TV and then he can go to parties and act like a good person. Even though those people will never use their platforms to. To lampoon the cause of Donald Trump, they'll only lampoon Donald Trump.

And that's why most comedy, most comedy sucks right now. Those late night shows are fucking garbage. Garbage Stephen Colbert did one of the maybe the best comedy show in the history of political comedy. The Colbert Report, the show he's doing on CBS is the exact he turned into the character he was making fun of. That's how bad it is, his show, his show is horrible. I see you see a lot of people shows go horrible under Donald Trump when that amazing news shows not a lefty new shows turned into garbage because of Donald Trump.

They turn into conspiracy theorists. They turn into people who repeat CIA talking points uncritically.

They turn into people who shame journalists who get it right. Because of Donald Trump that happened that happened to YouTube lefties that had happened to his fuckin assholes at CNN. And to this day, those people still do it. And now you wonder why everybody's being censored under the idea that it's because the left is pushing Russia again. The left is propping up the intelligence community. The left props up the surveillance state.

And if you think when you vote for Ellen O'Mara, fuckin AOC that they're against the surveillance state, you're wrong. They all voted for it. They all voted for it. None of us voted against it. As Norman Solomon pointed out last October. What's the point of voting for progressives if they're just going to vote in favor of this surveillance state anyway? There is no point in Joe Biden's calling me again, hello. Hey, man, stop calling me, and if you ain't voting for me, you must be black.

See, here's the thing.

The United States of America needs a change, a change to normalcy. Hmm. A change we can believe in again. Man, build to the back to the better, buddy boy. Now is the time where we stand up and counting. No, looking back, those days are gone.

Mr. Tambourine Man cries Nowadays your hair, the old days are there, you know. I mean, Jesus, not really.

Sometimes you just slur your words and mix things up. And it really scares me, Joe. Give me a break for Kate. What? Yeah, fuck you, Porky. Next question. I really don't have what? Now you're scaring me. Something anything happens to me. President, ask you to take over. I love her. Creepy laugh. Berberich for Halloween.

Are you sure you're up to the stress of the job, Joe? Will you shut up, man? I'm practicing my addiction with tongue twisters all week long. Have you seen this one? She says she's she's so seashores and rubbed her rubber baby buggy bumps by the shells of the lake.

I don't remember that that would go that way. I don't think that's how it goes.

You're crazy. Ask me if I can do this one. I should be sitting in a shoeshine shop.

OK, say it. I should be setting up shop next.

No, that's not it at all. Come on, man. This is that classic for disinformation. America has been hearing all about. What if I asked you how good a clam clam and a clean cream. Jesus Christ.

Jesus, I don't want to do tug twisters with you, Joe. Maneater, believe me. No, seriously. I've always wondered how a clam can do that. I want anyone to tell Joe, for God's sake, what's the motivation here?

Hey, how do you feel about Republicans labeling you a socialist radical? Shuey. Orange, you glad Bernie is running, I beat the crap out of that Bolshevik, so much misinformation going around. Jack, let me be clear. Joe Biden must not allow medical for all. He will not ban fracking and he does not support the create to deal with new shale.

You said crème newdeal, OK, whatever the clean Newville is.

Oh, look, we're on a freight train to hell and the crazy old fuckhead at the controls. We about saving the world for now because Trump is going to not save the world faster. Yeah. Got a clear choice to members. Don't forget, Trump could still win because of how he plays.

What do you mean by how he plays?

He could pull a fast one by not killing another 10000 people the next week. It might only be 5000. You see what I mean?

That's a clear difference. 5000 people. I get it. Another thing. Another thing. I'll tell you what I told that Leslie Stall Girl over a six minutes. No new taxes for the under 400000 hours.

Read my lips and you shoot them. Read my lips. Oh, like my life depended on it. Because to tell you the truth is, is the only thing that keeps me going. And number two, will you shut up and read my lips?

Yeah.

I don't know if you've noticed what's happened recently is that George Orwell was unbelievably accurate in his prediction. Not only are people embracing censorship, but censorship coming from the left. Censorship of accurate information is coming from the left as the left embraces evidence free conspiracy theories at the same time. So they're censoring accurate information, meaning the story about 100 Biden's emails, which is 100 percent accurate, that gets censored. But the evidence free conspiracy theories about it, like it's Russia, it's a Russian psy ops that that's completely bogus.

That's a conspiracy theory with no evidence yet that gets tweeted out, gets reported ad nauseum. Isn't that interesting? The facts get censored. The conspiracy theory with no evidence gets so a lie makes its way halfway around the world before the truth gets its pants on.

And that's what's happening right now again. So watch this. Right now, a lot of us liberals and progressives are swatting aside the Biden family corruption stuff as basically nothing compared to Trump. And it looks like they will succeed if he does win. However, it is not going to go away and it will not look like nothing. Which this is shocking, I mean, corporate journalists usually never swap things aside. Well, except for the, you know, the climate crisis, Flint's water dappled police brutality, all nine of our wars, protests, wildcat strikes, public opinion, net neutrality are predatory.

Health care systems are predatory. Prison system are predatory. Student loan system are predatory housing system. Other than that, though, that journalists in this country are on it.

Here's Glenn Greenwald, it's totally legitimate for liberal activists, Democratic partisans and ordinary Biden supporters to try to ignore, dismiss the reporting and attack those who discuss it, that's their role.

So you would expect people who are supporters of Biden to try to do damage control for him. You would expect that. But then Glenn says it's utterly shameful for journalists to do this. And they're the ones leading the way.

Yes, it is. Yes, it is. Here's Lee Fong says the class divide has never been so apparent in the media. Many journalists grew up rich, went to twenty thousand dollars a year. Prep schools are obsessed with fights over vocabulary symbols, fringe boogeymen ignore crumbling public schools, unsafe streets, rampant poverty as secondary concerns. So, you know, most journalists today really have their thumb on the pulse of regular people in America. A study found that there were a higher proportion of graduates at elite schools among reporters and editors at The Wall Street Journal, The New Republic and The New York Times than in the U.S. Senate or among Fortune 500 CEOs.

Hmm. So that's education for the elite, right? That's a very elite, educated group of people. Reserving education for the elite is literally one of the pillars of fascism. But if enough people can't go to school, nobody will know that. Clever play, ruling class, clever play. Amazon, CIA, 600 million dollar deals facing scrutiny, what's the CIA doing on Amazon cloud? Hey, even the CIA can't resist the sweet, sweet deal of free two day shipping with Amazon Prime American.

Jeff Bezos is doing huge business with the CIA while keeping his Washington Post readers in the dark. Because democracy dies in darkness and he's happy to help. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos joins tech titans on Pentagon's Innovation Advisory Board. I call this art piece Douchebag and the Rocket we wish he would take on a one way trip. Oh, boy, now that. This is the guy who runs The Washington Post. OK, this is why journalism sucks in America.

Amazon considering suing over loss of 10 billion dollars Pentagon contract after Trump attacks on Bezos. So there's a bad guy suing other bad guys over shit having to do with another bad guy, you don't need to root for anyone in this situation, folks. During the pandemic, Jeff Bezos became 78 billion dollars richer while denying paid sick leave and hazard pay to over 450000 Amazon workers, 20000 of them got covid. Pro-war movement springs into action. That's from February 2003.

This is this is why journalist, this is journalism in America. This is in 2003, pro-war movement springs into action, the pro-war movement, what's their slogan, war? This time it won't be bullshit, we promise. So this is there was a pro-war movement. Even on College Students for War is an ad hoc committee recently set up to build support across America for military action. Not to mention they have a psychotic hazing ritual. Northwestern University junior Dave Weigel.

Also, editor in chief of the campus weekly Northwestern Chronicle organized a group of about 25 people over email to counter an anti-war protest on campus last week. Now, who the hell would want to be in a group called Students for War? Star reporter for The Washington Post, Dave Weigel Tatsu. That's a. Dave Weigel wants to oppose the anti-war protest, what he calls an anti-American movement, the effect of not letting the media treat it like a burgeoning war antiwar movement.

If there is no pro America presence whatsoever, it is very easy for American reporters to just totally anti-American line. Man, he's really looking out for the little guy who's going to speak up for the poor weapons industry date, Dave Weigel from The Washington Post.

Hey, did you did you organize pro-war rallies when you were the editor of your school newspaper in college? Yes. Then you could get a job at The Washington Post. Because his his his boss sits on the board of the Pentagon, his boss is a 600 million dollar deal with the CIA. That's awesome. It is funny that he has a B.S. in journalism, so here's what I say to a guy like Dave Weigel and his in his 70s porno mustache.

What I say to a guy like Dave Weigel, if you love war so much that you're going to go organize pro-war rallies while you're in college, shouldn't you just have. Went to the war and fought it yourself. Yes, you should have. That's what a man would do. But Dave Weigel is not a man, Dave Weigel is a willing tool of the establishment who is pro-war. He was a right wing Republican up until Donald Trump. So now he's a good guy.

That's who he is and why do I bring it up, because he's coming for real lefties. Here's Dave Weigel. He's coming after that Ryan Knight, he says Ryan Knight is changing his handle from proud resister to proud socialist, told the story of Clout Jacir. So here you go, Ryan Knight, Ryan Knight is a guy who used to be an Elizabeth Warren supporter and said shitty things about Jelena's, he was a regular centrist Democrat, and then he finally woke up.

So he finally woke up, he had an evolution politically because he saw what was happening. And guys like Dave Weigel, pro-war rally, Dave Weigel. He wants to counter journalists because they're too anti-American. Comes after him, so right, Knight says, or maybe I just finally woke up and saw that both corporate parties use our government to enrich themselves and their corporate donors, and we, the people are paying the price. He goes, yeah, I get that you want people to argue with you online, it's just more interesting to argue with people.

Isn't it funny that this guy came out of nowhere to start a fight with a guy?

He says he wants to argue. Dave Weigel completely out of nowhere, attacks a guy who says, I get you want to argue with people online. This is why so would Dave Weigel sent me an email the first time he did an article on me. There were three obvious lies in his email, so I didn't return it because I knew he was a piece of shit. And then when then when he came up to me at a Bernie rally and said, hey, how come you didn't return my email?

Because you're full of shit, that's why and I know you are. I don't want to talk to you. You're full of shit. So here he is, he starts off, picks up a fight with a guy, just a regular person. So he's punching down and punching left, of course, Mr. Pro-war Rally, who works for billionaire Jeff Bezos, who's in bed with the Pentagon. Of course, that's how this works. You work for Jeff Bezos in The Washington Post and you decided to join the blue maggot cult.

And piling on anyone who dares to vote outside the corrupt two party system get bent. Well said. By the way, just so you know what kind of a piece of shit Dave Weigel really is and all these people are. The ABC Washington Post has a contract. Six hundred million dollars at the CIA. That's a fact. So our friend Russell Lewis tweeted about it and he said he he likes to hang the bankers that come. He says Washington Post made a 600 million dollar deal to CIA in.

This guy is telling us we shouldn't believe him.

We should we should believe we should write this guy saying we should believe him, meaning we should believe Jeff Bezos. And his comeback to that is he's so he denies it. And he says, well, I can hardly brush aside the reporting of hang the bankers dotcom. So what he's trying to say is that this is an accurate. So what he's trying to say is that is not accurate. That's Dave Weigel saying that this reporting is not accurate because somebody said it.

I'm hanging the bankers dotcom. So when he comes back. With a different source, he says, here you go, Mr. Professional Reporter that apparently knows nothing about his own newspaper. So when it's irrefutable now Dave Weigel goes, That's Basils, not The Washington Post NALGO. So at first he lies. This is the star reporter, pro-war star reporter who's now attacking, attacking lefties. Again, he always does. But here he is doing it again.

He always shit on Bernie supporters, and here he is doing it again on the left and here he when he gets caught lying. He was flat out lying for Jeff Bezos. He gets caught by a regular person and then they bring back another source for him and then he all right, you can't me lying. And now I'll just pretend like it's not important. Now, you just got outed as a liar because Dave Weigel is a liar. He's a shitty right wing on purpose tool who gets to gets orders from his bosses on how to smear people.

So he was told to go after Ryan Knight and he did. Dave Weigel was told to go after Ryan Knight. That's why he did it. Dave Weigel was told to go after me. That's why he did it. Dave Weigel takes orders. From Jeff Bezos or the people Jeff Bezos hires? But I love his mustache. So Ted Cruz just finished his event, we just saw Dave Weigel, the reporter for The Washington Post, come by with his fake mustache.

And again, I don't know why. Show him he's right behind you. Turn just turn around.

So that's Dave Weigel from The Washington Post and his fake mustache. It's funny, that's why he does it. And I appreciate it. I like comedy.

And now you know why journalism sucks in America. Because it's owned by billionaires who are sitting on Pentagon boards and are in bed with the CIA and then they hire pukes like Dave Weigel, who did pro-war rallies in college and then smears anybody to the left of Jeff Bezos.

That's why American journalism sucks. There you go. Hey, this is Jimmy who says Jeremy Sabbatino. Oh, hey, Mr. Presedo, how are you? Now doing half bad. Hey, look, I want to talk to you about something you want.
