The Jimmy Dore Show

One area of contention within the MAGA movement is over the question of Israel. Many Trump supporters are adamantly anti-Israel and wish to sever the close ties between the US and the Jewish state. Within the Trump camp, however, there is near unanimity in offering unconditional support for Israel in its genocidal assault on Gaza and aspirations for expansion into what’s termed “Greater Israel.” Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast talk with Black Conservative Perspective host Greg Foreman about why MAGA will never do anything to change the Trump administration’s policy on Israel. Plus segments on the LA fire chief’s foreknowledge of empty reservoirs and broken hydrants and the prison laborers being used as virtual slaves to fight the LA fires. Also featuring Mike MacRae! And a phone call from David Axelrod!

California Gov. Gavin Newsom was confronted by a mother in Los Angeles County who said her daughter's school burned down as several fires have devastated the region this week.  In a video aired by SkyNews, the woman approached Gov. Newsom in the middle of a street surrounded by burned-down buildings. "I live here, governor. That was my daughter's school. Governor, please tell me what you're going to do," she pleaded with Newsom.  The governor responded, "I'm literally talking to the president right now to specifically answer the question of what we can do for you and your daughter." The woman then asked if she could hear the call with the president "because I don't believe it." Newsom then showed her his phone screen and said he couldn't get through to the president.  Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast talk discuss whether his administration’s utter failure over the LA fires will completely douse Newsom’s presidential prospects. Plus segments on sentencing in Donald Trump’s New York hush money case and Joe Biden and LA Mayor Karen Bass fumbling and bumbling reaction to the raging fires. Also featuring Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Joe Biden!

Meta will get rid of fact-checkers, “dramatically reduce the amount of censorship” and recommend more political content on its platforms, including Facebook, Instagram and Threads, founder Mark Zuckerberg has announced. In a video message, Zuckerberg vowed to prioritize free speech after the return of Donald Trump to the White House and said that, starting in the US, he would “get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X”. Zuckerberg said Meta’s “fact-checkers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they’ve created”. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast discuss the move from Zuckerberg, and the sordid history of fact checking at Facebook. Plus segments on callous Israelis’ total lack of concern for the deaths of children in Gaza and Democrat dead-enders rallying in DC on January 6th to register their objection to the Trump presidency.

According to authorities, the recent New Year’s attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas are likely the work of ISIS and Al Qaeda, who are determined to initiate attacks on the U.S. homeland and terrorize the American populace. According to investigative journalist and author Whitney Webb, however, these incidents actually have the hallmarks of U.S. and Israel-based intelligence operations, although the objective — terrifying the American people — remains the same. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss of the Due Dissidence podcast discuss with Webb what about these attacks and the historical record leads her to conclude that the CIA and others are probably involved. Plus segments on Canadian PM Justin Trudeau’s announcement that he will resign his post and Joe Biden’s last shipment of $8 billion in weapons to Israel before he leaves office.
