The Democrats Have a Bold New Plan… To Do Absolutely Nothing (Jimmy Dore)

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger criticize Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, arguing that despite Democratic election victories and calls for change, the party's leadership is unlikely to challenge U.S. support for Israel or deliver major progressive policies. Jimmy highlights criticism of Jeffries from commentators and progressives, including questions about his relationship with Schumer, his support for Israel, and his reluctance to commit to Medicare for All, while mocking Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's stated reasons for supporting Jeffries.

He also examines calls for Democrats to become an antiwar party and prioritize affordability, contrasting those demands with the party's historical support for military interventions and its record on healthcare, labor, and corporate influence. He concludes that Jeffries may constrain progressive ambitions within the party, citing a fundraising invitation involving Jeffrey Epstein as further material for scrutiny, and questions whether Democratic electoral gains will produce meaningful policy changes.



The only real difference between the Dems and the GOP is that the latter at least closed the southern border. The Dems will open up the border and help to further destroy the country. They're both pro war and corporatist controlled.
