More Than A Red Line, Russian Policy To Mirror Attacks on Shadow Fleet (The Duran)




This 'threat' is not a warning, but an order to target Western shipping in the Pacific. It's a retaliatory measure against NATO-European nations targeting Russian ships. However, the big problem with waging a submarine war is that the US does have dominance in this regard. It's one thing to board ships using surface vessels and another thing to use submarines. If Russia does act in the Pacific it will need to be in the same manner we saw with the Europeans, using surface vessels.

Candace Exposes IMPOSSIBLE Tyler Robinson Timeline! (Jimmy Dore)


Citing a video released by Candace Owens, Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger question the official timeline presented for Tyler Robinson’s alleged assassination of Charlie Kirk, focusing on the extensive driving, repeated clothing changes, and other details they find implausible. They also raise questions about the rifle, the DNA evidence, the alleged difficulty locating the weapon, and the involvement or knowledge of Robinson’s roommate, Lance Twiggs.

Jimmy argues that these inconsistencies undermine the official account and criticizes Turning Point USA’s handling of security and the broader political fallout surrounding Kirk’s death. The discussion ultimately portrays the case as deeply suspicious while acknowledging that some of the claims presented remain unverified.

Tyler Robinson Photos FAKED! Courtroom Photos ALTERED! (Jimmy Dore)


For this segment Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger point out that the surveillance footage shown in court identifying Tyler Robinson as Charlie Kirk's killer was horizontally compressed, making the person appear thinner and more like Robinson, while the uncompressed image shows a stockier individual who doesn't match his build. Jimmy also points out that the lead prosecutor identified the person in the altered footage as Robinson despite the visual discrepancy, suggesting the video was manipulated to frame him.

Candace Owens has publicly defended the image as unaltered by AI, stating that the court showed "compressed footage.” The segment also questions why Tyler Robinson's court-appointed defense team appears ineffective and why other lawyers have been prevented from representing him
.



If they're trying to frame Tyler Robinson then the assassination of Charlie Kirk was an inside job. This is the true nature of the US State. Assassinations and corruption.

The online argument, infighting, about HOW the video was altered distracts away from the fact this footage was CLEARLY ALTERED. How it was changed is not as important as observing that it was clearly changed.

Dems ADMIT They Rig Primary Elections! (Jimmy Dore)


It’s something of an open secret that Democratic Party leadership has historically exercised significant influence over who becomes the party’s nominees. Now former Biden Press Secretary Jen Psaki is admitting the truth. Jimmy connects this history to Bernie Sanders’ 2016 and 2020 campaigns and the Democrats’ 2024 nomination process, arguing that voters were denied meaningful choices and that this helped drive some voters toward Donald Trump.

He and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger argue that the Democratic Party’s establishment has become increasingly unpopular because of its positions on issues including war and Israel, while mocking the “No Kings” movement as hypocritical given what they describes as the party’s treatment of its own voters. Overall, the segment contends that anger should be directed at the political system and party leadership rather than at voters who chose Trump

Why won't Labor simply copy Canada on immigration? (Leithvo)


This Treasury of Common Sense on Radio 2GB/4BC discusses the latest rumblings from Labor pertaining to immigration.



Labor might cut back on immigration in the short term to win favour for the upcoming elections (State and Federal) but only until enough of these new arrivals can vote and then they will ramp things up again. They want a big Australia future, but the problem is the country is headed towards an economic disaster thanks to NET ZERO. Hopefully the voting public can see that voting for this globalist government is a road to ruin.

Col. Macgregor: U.S. Military in CRISIS as Sailors JUMP OVERBOARD from USS Lincoln (Rachel Blevins)


Military families are speaking out and warning about a growing crisis onboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, as its 5,000 sailors and marines are now in their ninth month at sea—with 250 consecutive days without making land—as the deployment has been extended to take part in the U.S. war on Iran.

Ret. U.S. Army Col. Douglas Macgregor noted that reports of sailors attempting to jump overboard the USS Lincoln come as no surprise, given the circumstances, and they should be taken seriously by the Trump Admin. But the opposite is happening, as the U.S. pushes its military into a crisis for a war of choice they know they can’t win against Iran.




Macgregor points out that US foreign policy appears to be clearly under the control of Israeli interests. The US faces no external threats. All of their problems are internal. The current wars are wars of choice, to destroy countries that oppose Israel and to (fancifully) seize control of ME oil assets. The politicians support these wars because they have been bribed (or blackmailed). Exposing the truth is the first step in addressing this corruption. Another important interview. 

Note: The intro text, and heading, to videos like this tends to hide the deeper issue about who is controlling and blackmailing the US Government (maybe to avoid censorship).

Fauci Hearings Were a Complete Coverup! Here’s What They’re Hiding w/ Dr. David Martin” (Jimmy Dore)




Dr Martin sees the pandemic as premeditated murder, and that Fauci engaged in criminal activity outside of his pardon, where he explains that what they were doing was working on biowarfare enabling technology. He says that this technology ultimately led to deaths during the pandemic. Furthermore, back in 2012, a remedy to corona-virus infection had been published that included Ivermectin, HCQ and Zinc, which means that there was no need for the experimental (and deadly) Covid shots.

He says that this bio war connection, and a clear admission of gain of function work, has been passed over by Senators Rand Paul and Ron Johnson who he believes are covering for the wider biowarfare industry that still engages in dangerous research. He says that both Paul and Johnson could have stopped the pandemic with the documents he cites in this video.

SHOCKING! Democratic Insider Exposes Party’s ULTRA ROTTEN CORE! w/Evan Barker (Jimmy Dore)




The clip opens with Jimmy and Evan reminding viewers that the DNC rigged their own primary vote multiple times. It's become a party of elites, as opposed to supporting ordinary people. Anti establishment candidates get dumped, including in situations where they are in elections against Republicans. Most of the people running things are there to gain power rather than to make changes for the better, and it applies to both regular Democrats and Progressives within the party. Evan also strongly raises the issue of Identity Politics where merit is sidelined in favour of the person's 'oppression status'. She points out that this agenda was heavily pushed by donors, such as George Soros (people who want Western countries demolished). Evan and Jimmy are both from the left, and they're talking a lot of sense here. A good insight into blanket corruption and screwed up thinking. 

ps. Evan Barker should think about connecting with the new America First Party considering the values she currently holds.

Victorian taxpayers are trapped in a no-win situation (Leithvo)


This interview with Melbourne Radio 3AW unpacks the latest estimate that cancelling the Suburban Rail Project could cost Victorian taxpayers more than $12 billion.



It will cost from 34 to 50 billion to complete the Suburban Rail Loop and 12 billion to cancel it. The problem is that continuing with the project will bankrupt other programs (like general services and policing). A lot of the increased cost has come down to rorting. Those who are corruptly milking taxpayer money are actually helping to sink the overall ship.

Something Is Very Strange About Human Civilization (Michael Button)


For almost 300,000 years, humans built no cities. Then, within a tiny window of our history, civilizations began appearing independently across the world.

Why did humanity wait so long? And why did it suddenly happen in so many different places?

In this video, we explore one of archaeology’s biggest unanswered questions: what actually caused civilization to begin?




Did humans build civilisations during the Ice Age, or earlier, that vanished from the pages of history? While the video asks why farming did not appear before modern times there may have been a different form of food production at work that heavily involved fishing and fruit gathering, or something like that, that allowed human civilisation to flourish. The ending of the Ice Age would wipe out most traces of such societies.

UKRAINE IS SCREWED: Kiev CAN’T STOP Record Russian GLIDE BOMBS, BALLISTIC MISSILES | Mark Sleboda (Rachel Blevins)


While the mainstream media has been working to paint a picture of Ukraine “standing up” to Russia and Zelensky getting back on Trump’s good side…. the reality is becoming increasingly bleak for the Ukrainian people, as the war of attrition Russia is waging takes a toll both militarily and economically.

International Relations and Security Analyst Mark Sleboda noted that although the West’s air defense systems have never been able to stop Russian ballistic missiles, the reason Kiev is lobbying so hard for interceptors is because they are on the brink of Russia reaching “not just air superiority, but air dominance” and leaving Ukraine a land-locked shell of a country

Marjorie Taylor Greene: The Money Trail in Washington DC (Daniel Davis)




Inside information from Marjorie Taylor Greene. MTG explains how things changed after Trump's second election. She was blindsided by Trump's bombing of Iran. She points out that Trump ended up doing the bidding of his Israel first donors and took onboard former critics. Trump turned into someone she did not recognise over the cover up of the Epstein files. She points out that Tulsi Gabbard briefed Trump on Iran and he knows that Iran is no threat and that they don't have a nuclear weapons program. 

As things stand there's no end in sight for the wars against Iran or Russia because the US has been hijacked by Israeli donor money, and also because of the Deep State (remember all the assassination attempts levelled at Trump and the killing of Charlie Kirk). The only way these conflicts are likely to end is through an economic calamity caused by oil shortages, and through a complete Russian military victory in Ukraine. 

MTG's future plans are for a new America First political party that won't be beholden to donor money. The problem this faces is vote fraud that will certainly skew elections so they can never win. If the US does face an economic collapse a new party may win through. The other alternative is a military coup that arrests the corrupt and traitors to The Constitution.

HUGE WIN For Medical Freedom Over COVID Censorship! w/ Dr. Pierre Kory (Jimmy Dore)


This segment focuses on a legal challenge to California’s COVID-19 misinformation law, arguing that doctors should retain First Amendment protections when discussing medical information and treatment options with patients. Attorney Richard Jaffe tells Jimmy that after earlier rulings treated doctor-patient advice as regulable “conduct,” a later Supreme Court decision on protected therapeutic speech changed the legal landscape, leading a federal judge to rule in favor of three doctors challenging California’s restrictions.

Dr. Pierre Kory argues that the case has implications far beyond COVID-19 because allowing governments or medical boards to dictate what physicians may say could suppress medical dissent and independent judgment. The three characterize the ruling as a major victory for doctors’ and patients’ freedom of medical discussion, while also crediting legal organizations that supported the litigation

Col Doug Macgregor - Iran War: THE ART OF DEFEAT / We Have No Influence Over Iran (Daniel Davis)




Macgregor reminds viewers that the US has been captured by Israeli interests. Despite knowing that a prolonged conflict will lead to an economic calamity the war is being pushed nonetheless. It is certainly not being waged for US interests.

The goal is to basically destroy all of Israel's rivals in the Middle East, regardless of the cost. This comes after decades of Zionist involvement in flooding the West with migrants. The idea behind such a policy is to weaken Western countries who may oppose to what they are doing. Globalist corporatist types also approve of mass migration because the influx of people lowers labour costs. The bottom line is that these people are no friend of any country. To them, everyone is expendable, including other Jews who prefer Western countries (their homelands) to remain safe and prosperous jurisdictions.  

Another aspect to what's happening here is that the entire conflict is a wake up call when it comes to globalism - particularly trade route choke points. It is a lesson for every country to be as self sufficient as possible.

The last part of this clip deals with military organisation and implementing the lessons from recent conflicts, and looking back at how this was done in the past.

NEW HOPE for Vaccine Injuries with Low-Dose Naltrexone! w/Dr. Angus Dalgleish (Jimmy Dore)




The video offers a range of treatments for those suffering jab injuries and 'long Covid'. If your body takes in the right substances it can perform near miracles. One disturbing anecdote from Dr Dalgleish was that hospital administrators told him they'd block any research he was doing into combatting spike proteins - likely because it was seen as an 'alternative treatment'. One can guess that people within the establishment only care about following industry approved medicine - like they are conditioned robots.

COVID Vaxx Link To Turbo Cancers EXPOSED By Legendary Oncologist Dr. Angus Dalgleish! (Jimmy Dore)


Dr. Angus Dalgleish joins Jimmy to discuss his objections to COVID-19 vaccine development, the origins of SARS-CoV-2, and his concerns that the virus's spike protein and vaccine safety were ignored. Dr. Dalgleish argues that COVID-19 vaccines were developed around a flawed strategy and cites the Cleveland Clinic study as evidence he believes links multiple vaccine doses with increased subsequent infection risk and so-called “turbo cancers.”

Dalgleish also criticizes Anthony Fauci and the broader public-health establishment, alleging that scientific debate and evidence concerning COVID-19 origins and vaccine risks were suppressed. The discussion concludes with broader concerns about institutional influence, scientific funding, media narratives, and the reliability of AI-generated answers about COVID-19.
