Committed socialist politician and activist Kshama Sawant and Abandon Harris co-founder Hassan Abdel Salam joined The Jimmy Dore Show guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss to discuss their opposition to the Biden administration’s support for Israel’s genocide in Gaza and beyond, breaking the duopoly’s control of our politics, and their endorsement of Jill Stein even if votes for the Green Party will potentially lead to Kamala Harris’s loss in Michigan and elsewhere.
Â
Democrats, predictably enough, are lashing out at potential third party voters, lodging wild accusations of foreign influence and calling Jill Stein a grifter — all in a desperate effort to distract from the very real shortcomings of the Harris/Walz ticket and Democrats as a whole.

Plus a segment on the CIA touting a new recruit representing the agency’s “woke” turn into a more diverse global terrorist organization.

Earlier in October the Grayzone reporter Jeremy Loffredo traveled to Israel to report on the ongoing conflict between Israel and its neighbors in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and Iran.

Â
Plus a segment on a recent Trump ad targeting older Jewish voters playing on their fear of Palestinians.

Increasing numbers of Israeli soldiers are becoming disillusioned with fighting in Gaza and other areas of conflict in Lebanon and the West Bank, leading some to refuse to return to the battlefield. According to a report in Israeli outlet HaMakom, interviews with over 20 parents and fighters in a range of battalions have revealed increasing disatisfaction in the ranks.

Jimmy welcomed John Jay College economics professor and former investigative journalist Christian Parenti to the show to discuss the fundamental lie at the foundation of the whole “wokeness” phenomenon — specifically that the act of centering identity in the political discourse inevitably, and by design, marginalizes discussion of class while eroding worker solidarity.
Â
Specific topics covered include whether wokeness can continue to expand in influence or will taper off and die, why young people will turn away from the woke agenda in favor of more pressing economic concerns and a preschool that warned children not to mis-gender animals.

The Posse Comitus Act, passed by Congress in 1878, bans the United States Armed Forces from being used to enforce domestic policies. Meaning the government can’t deploy the army to suppress protesters or otherwise act as police within the U.S. borders. Except that the Defense Department recently issued a directive that conflicts directly with the Posse Comitus Act and states that the military can and will be deployed domestically to crush internal dissent

It seems like everyone in mainstream news media has just accepted that Kamala Harris “won” the Democratic presidential nomination without getting a single vote in a primary. So it fell to an attendee at a Kamala appearance on Univision to point out to the Vice President that some voters are uncomfortable with the way she was anointed and pushed aside the rightful Democratic nominee and sitting president.
Â
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Harris’ inevitably mediocre response to a question she feels she shouldn’t have to answer.
Â
Plus segments on the New York Appelate Court destroying the arguments underpinning Trump’s fraud case, black voters clapping back at Obama for vote shaming, Trump’s vow to “remove” the “Jew haters” from America and Bill Clinton unwittingly doing a commercial for Donald Trump while talking to voters about immigration.

Seed oils — going by a variety of names including “canola oil,” “sunflower oil” and “vegetable oil” are everywhere, in virtually any processed food item sold at your local grocery store. Unfortunately, says osteopathic physician and board-certified family physician, as well as bestselling author, Dr. Joseph Mercola, these seed oils are also essentially poisons, doing great harm to the body’s cellular health, specifically the mitochondria.
Â
Jimmy and Dr. Mercola discuss the pernicious ubiquity of seed oils and how consumers can find alternatives that will deliver better cellular health, as well as the health benefits of enjoying direct sunlight during “solar noon” and some of the other widespread lies the medical establishment has foisted on us over the years.

Remember when Howard Stern was a towering anti-establishment figure, the shock jock who wasn’t afraid to speak his mind, mock the culture’s sacred cows and push every possible limit? Well, those days are clearly over as Stern has embraced a new role as an inveterate “shitlib” who kisses up to the most mediocre and compromised political media figures, from Hillary Clinton to Joe Scarborough.
Â
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the tongue-bath interview Stern recently held with Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris.
Â
