Jimmy could do a whole stand-up set where he just talks about needing make-up, and when he was fat/etc. hilarious shit man!
special progressive regressive aggressive monotheistic monopoly brothers of crime!
I’m having issues with the whole tyt site. Videos won’t play, pages load really slow. Is spectrum throttling you guys?
It is so great to see my Aggressive Progressive family every week!
Hey, how about seating Stef in the middle? It might cut down on Steve’s mansplaining tendencies (yes, YOU, Steve), and discussions could be more inclusive. It is true that Steve, in playing devil’s advocate, usually gives the “other side” waaaay too much credit (almost like “good people on both sides”– HELP we need no more of THAT, do we!).
All the topics were Right On this time. THANK YOU!
You left me wanting more. Great show!
Great show guys! This is the reason why I contribute to TYT. You fuckin’ tell the fuckin’ truth. Keep up the good work.
Now this: enough with the Ocasio-Cortez elevation, please. My hope is that SHE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE. The progressive ideas she espoused is something progressives have wanted for a long time — this is not new. I would also hope that TYT and other progressive media reveal candidates that continue to embrace and support these old ideas. So…who the fuck else is out there that can support this shit? Progressive ideas are what Americans want. Trump and Bernie proved that. Mainstream media won’t support this for obvious corporate reasons. Keep supporting this and the idea of THIRD PARTY MOVEMENT for 2020. A cool thing if Ocasio-Cortez bailed on the Dems and joined the THIRD PARTY MOVEMENT. She should do this before she becomes absorbed into the BORG of the neo-lberal Democrats.
“I would also hope that TYT and other progressive media reveal candidates that continue to embrace and support these old ideas.” Um, TYT literally does this four times a week on Rebel Headquarters.
Great show. I love you guys, you are the main reason I keep my TYT membership. Jimmy, you don’t need a makeup artist, we love you because you are you not fake. The three of you are terrific together but I have one request, let us hear more from Steph. She is brilliant and I love her perspective but when Jimmy and Steve get going she gets left out.
Great to see Steve O back. Please don’t play our fav TYT personalities off. Let the show go overtime. The key to fixing a lot of the YouTube TV issues is editing. Edit the show if you have to for YouTube TV, but let us see the shows the way it always was.
I love TYT, I plan to stay a member, but I am worried. I am afraid the show could get compromised in order to not offend YouTube.
I think you guys and progressive candidates for office need to address how to transition to a society like your example of Norway and Sweden, taking on a system that pays one to go to college, pays for health care, to prevent people from going to jail but we have all these people in jail right now, all this student debt and people going to be pissed of they had to pay but these durn kids nowadays dont, how do we make the transition and pay for everything for the interval time, and I think part of he answer may be ceasing the fear tactics politicians use to get the country behind funding the military industrial complex.
Steve – Many of us in America making under $50k annually would love to move to a country like Sweden, where we can enjoy a social safety net, but the problem is that we make less than $50k. Moving is expensive. Moving internationally feels impossible.
Jimmy – I love you. I really do value your opinion and your endless diatribes. But I have a request. Can you please stop shitting on Stef so often? She’s a strong, intelligent woman who’s got your back more than anyone else in that room. Treat her that way! Don’t brush her comments off and make snide remarks to her on air. Please&thanks. <3
OMG… can you just shut the hell up and let the clip play for more then 5 seconds before going on a 5 minute diatribe
Welcome back Steve, you really do an amazing contribution the the show. What a great team. Sorry about being a bit scattered, I interspersed the show with the Brasil-Belgium soccer match coming from Putin’s Russia. That should be the media’s sword that they should fall on, but they are never going to give an inch. The British and Swiss said that the Russians were preparing hooligan fighting, like the Portland clashes. But, get this, Russian people are nice. They like to watch soccer and drink with other people. Bu they have been under crippling sanctions. Which is warfare. We are also waging warfare on Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, Palestine, Yemen, Somalia. I am getting a Neo-Liberal Swiss newspaper and they are trying to say that the poor Swiss cannot do anything because it is the Americans that rule the world. Bullshit. They are supporting the sanctions, and are happy to go along with every move since they make a nice profit.And they are financing the war machine, and Western Europe is churning out Death Weapons. Deutsche Bank gave money to Trump? They were greasing his already greasy very tiny palms. But he likes it that way, it makes his money look bigger. Jimmy, why can’t you do a crowdfunding for a makeup artist. That way you can cover up the time and a half chin. Good job for losing all that wait. Oh, weight, weren’t we mixing met a fours?
One of the best episodes ever! So much better when Steve is there, too.
Steve! In 1970 I received a grant(?) to attend my college of choice . It wasn’t ’cause I was smart or had curly hair.
It was because I was a citizen of this country. I have to admit it was a NY State – It covered completely –
tuition , transportation, supplies ( it was an amazing art school) , lunch etc. If I needed anything, I went to see my counselor ( from the state ) – the premise was to be able to attend school without distractions. There were no contingencies like I had to work in the state, etc. I had attended college before that, with a Federal guaranteed low interest loan. It was also a time when graduation from HS was an automatic entry to public college or 2 year community college. That was HERE. It was reality. It happened. It was part of life here. Do not erase it.
To me this is more powerful than pointing out it is possible in Finland(?) Although if I was a bit younger I would probably move there :)
Thank you for AP!
Damn fine episode – keep up the truth-telling!
Obama could have appointed Cornel West while the Senate was in recess. Appointed, not nominated. The confirmation process would be bypassed. West would be seated.
Hey Jimmy,
Terry Schrunk Plaza is where the US Federal Building is located. It looks like they had it cordoned off and weren’t letting any protesters on the property. They probably didn’t coordinate their response with the Portland Police which is bullshit.
Loved your Saturday PDX show!
Eric
Let’s not forget the real primacy to be added to your comments, the indigenous peoples such as the Sioux being cheated out of the Black Hills .We owe them to implement the treaty of 1868 and the genocie of their tribe, and many tribes were inflicted by genocide.
Jimmy what’s funny is that they said they stand for everyone getting an equal and fair chance, yet they had to rig an election to screw over Bernie. Doesn’t sound very equal or fair, their hypocrisy knows no bounds.
I love the original Steve Oh and Jimmy Dore! Only Steve is willing to push hard against what Jimmy is saying, trying to take into account where other people are coming from, though I think he does give some people too much credit.
I supported Ms. Cortez’ campaign when she was on the Jimmy Dore show. I was happy about the Justice Democrats. However, at this point, I’m not happy about Ms. Cortez’ victory due to two missing things from her platform:
1. Mass Incarceration of blacks, specifically the descendants of slaves who built this country.
2. Reparations for black descendants of slaves.
What is happening with the separation of children from their parents at the boarder is heartless and speaks of a moral decay that is getting worse. This separation of families and caging of blacks and trauma to the children has been going on for 399 years (via slavery, black codes, Jim Crow, and now mass incarceration). Where is this in the platform? It’s great to have a universal basic income but who will decide who gets this versus who doesn’t? Blacks experienced these kinds of programs when they came back from WW2 and were not allowed to take advantage of the GI Bill, they are shut out of publicly assisted housing if they have a felony and denied employment for this as well. Having these programs may or may not work but whether they do or not blacks are owed reparations.
Don’t be so politically purist that you can’t see which side you need to supprt. You won’t get any movement on your ideas in either the R or D party, the Greens are OK but I have a hard time since they have leaders that get very dispersed. You have someone that just one a selection, she will be going for the general. But if there is anyone that would fight for what you want, she would probably help you before about 999 other politicians. So don’t be so quick to dismiss. This is divisiveness from the left. Or are you a troll?
Stephanie Kelton would inform you that our federal tax dollars actually pay for zero federal spending. Federal taxes are only extracted from the economy to create a demand for the dollar. Jimmy almost had it when he said we create our own money. Maybe you guys should have her (Stephanie) on. The establishment loves how working class people fight over “our tax dollars”. Dems and Repubs are in back rooms laughing together.
Jimmy joking about the $20 million … how much did YouTube TV pay you for the Jimmy Dore Show?
I support Jimmy on Patreon as well, but there’s very little content there… the Sat/Sun Super Chat, but not much else. Will JDS be available there?
Anyone have any news?
Question ~ Since the Jimmy Dore Show is now going to be on YouTube TV (along w/Ana & John’s shows and Michael Shure’s new show) and behind a $40@month paywall, does that mean JDS clips won’t be available on regular YouTube anymore? Will they be available on Patreon as well as YouTube TV?
Cenk announced it before the holiday, and I’ve been looking for answers.
If JDS can only be viewed behind a paywall, I would argue he will have less influence because not everyone can afford the $40@month. If that amount seems miniscule to you, then you are probably excited more about Michael Shure’s opinion and less about Jimmy’s.
Does anyone know?
I don’t know the answer to what will be available on Jimmy’s Patreon. I’m glad the audio portion of JDS is now available as a podcast from TYT. Regarding Michael Shure, does anybody really believe any meaningful portion of TYT’s core audience would pony up $40 a month for the privilege of listening to more of Shure? I think Micheal does add value to the network in things like live election coverage because he’s a geek when it comes to the nuts and bolts of elections and what’s going on at the district level, etc. (And he sometimes provides much needed hockey coverage on TYT Sports.) But I cannot stand him when he delves into strategizing because he will invariably take the mainstream Democratic line of sacrificing progressive principles in the name of alleged appeal to the “real Americans” in the heartland. It’s nauseating to listen to. At least with the corporate Dems I know why they do that – they are beholden to their donors and maintaining the corrupt lifestyle to which they are accustomed. But I have no idea why Shure sticks to that way of thinking because he isn’t getting rich within that system. If it’s to try and get more lucrative employment on mainstream outlets he has failed miserably.
Haven’t watched the show yet.
But just wanted to say…
Will Jimmy just run for president already?
Stop talking about needing a new party and just do it.
Its not like he needs to win. Its enough to raise awareness of the issues. I just realised I trust Jimmy as much as Bernie. Maybe more.
Why not just throw your hat in the ring. Maybe hold a vacancy for Bernie….
In the most recent Italian elections the new successful 5 stars party was instigated by a political comedian.
OMG could you imagine his RALLIES? I think you are ON to something here.
And STEVE-you NEED to be on the show EVERY WEEK PLEASE!! When it’s Jimmy, Steve and Steph it’s the BEST!!!
How about a Jimmy Dore Jesse Ventura ticket, or vice-versa. They would be amenable to it.They have already talked about it but Jesse wanted Howard Stern, with good reason. But it is time to have a real firebrand, a real rabble rouser. I could see Steph as FLOTUS. Or actually, why doesn’t Steph run as president, and Jimmy as Veep. Io suo com ella.
I thought Jesse Ventura too, but surely some of his Libertarian views would be at odds with progressives.
Amazing show!
Can I brag about Alexandris Ocasio-Cortez? I live in Astoria, Queens and actually got to vote for her(and of course contribute to her campaign).
Brag away, you deserve it. In your position, I’d be walking on air, high-fiving everyone I pass on the sidewalks in Queens.
Heck, I’m on the other side of the continent, and I’ve had an ear-to-ear grin on my face ever since June 26. And, I also donated to AOC. There are happy members of Team AOC everywhere. But you are at the epicenter, so yes… brag away!
OMG JIMMY STOP FORGETTING YOU CAN SWEAR!!!!!
Also shame on TYT for even starting the anti-swearing thing, but good job getting rid of it again!
hey the way u guys address the prison thing where you say hey heres 50 grand just don’t come back sort of relies on the stereotype that there are these people who kinda chose “thief” as their career… not many people actually do that and in most cases, theft is for drug habits…unfortunatly the situation is more nuanced
thanks again for the prompt posting. Have a good holiday!
The swear or not swear rule seems to change each week. Who does AP have to answer regarding censorship?
Except for my wife, Mom and sister, I love you guys more than anyone else on the planet.
I love them more than everyone (except my dog, of course)!
