Hey, come see us on tour. We'll be in Duluth, Georgia, right outside of Atlanta, Jacksonville, Florida, Tempe, Arizona, and Burbank, California. Go to JimmyDore.com for a link for those tickets.
It's been a crazy day and the left and the right had flipped. So that's, that's what I'm going to show you that in a second. But first let me show you what Bobby Kennedy did today. Bobby Kennedy came out and he, and he said this, watch. 16 months ago in April of 2023, I launched my campaign for president United States.
I began this journey as a Democrat, the party of my father, my uncle, the party which I pledged my own allegiance to long before I was old enough to vote. I attended my first Democratic convention at the age of six in 1960. And back then the Democrats were the champions of the Constitution, of civil rights. The Democrats stood against authoritarianism, against censorship, against colonialism, imperialism, and unjust wars.
We were the party of labor, of the working class. The Democrats were the party of government transparency and the champion of the environment. Our party was a bulwark against big money interests and corporate power. True to its name, it was the party of democracy. As you know, I left that party in October because it had departed so dramatically from the core values that I grew up with. It had become the party of war, censorship, corruption, big pharma, big tech, big ag, and big money.
When an abandoned democracy, by canceling the primary to conceal the cognitive decline of the sitting president, I left the party to run as an independent. The mainstream of American politics and journalism derided my decision. Conventional wisdom said that it would be impossible even to get on the ballot as an independent because each state poses an insurmountable tangle of arbitrary rules for collecting signatures. I would need over a million signatures, something no presidential candidate in history had ever achieved.
And then, I'd need a team of attorneys and millions of dollars to handle all the legal challenges from the DNC. The naysayers told us that we were climbing a glass version of Mount Impossible. So the first thing I want to tell you is that we proved them wrong. We did it because beneath the radar of mainstream media organs, we inspired a massive independent political movement. More than 100,000 volunteers sprang into action, hopeful that they could reverse our nation's decline. Many worked 10-hour days, sometimes in blizzards and blazing heat.
They sacrifice family time, personal commitments, and sleep months after. So I just want to remind you, when Bobby was on my show the first time, apparently most of the people missed that video or that interview. I told him, it's a fool's errand that you're running as a Democrat. There's a reason why they have—I can't get excited about your campaign. I can't even get that interested in it because there's a reason why they have superdelegates.
And look what they did to Bernie. And so you can't become the nominee. And he even said, no, we're going to do it. And I'm a Democrat. My dad was a Democrat. My uncle was a Democrat. My whole family have been Democrats all our lives. And he even made the case that the Democratic Party was better.
And the Republican Party, he even made that. So he's been disabused of that idea because he ran and tried to run a presidential campaign in the Democratic Party. And then he ran as an independent and they kept so they're still suing him.
So they took him to New York this week. He was in court in New York and Pennsylvania. And then they rigged the judges. The judges are DNC judges. And so the judges don't even let him testify. They'd screw them. So he's gotten a good dose of the fascism that the Democratic Party is pushing. The most I've said this, I'll say it again, the most anti-democratic Democratic Party in the history of our country. And so now he's been woken up.
And so I just wanted to make that point that I told him that he was he was wishful thinking. And now here he is. He got his mind right. He got disabused of that. And now he sees things clearly. So I just. So let's finish the rest of this. Energized by a shared vision of a nation, yield of its divisions. They set up tables at churches and farmers markets.
They canvassed door to door. In Utah and in New Hampshire, volunteers collected signatures in snowstorms, convincing each supporter to stop in the frigid cold, to take off their gloves, and to sign legibly. During a heat wave in Nevada, I met a tall athletic volunteer who cheerfully told me that he had lost 25 pounds collecting signatures in 117 degree heat. To finance this effort, young Americans donated their lunch money and senior citizens gave up part of their social security checks.
Our 50 state organization collected those millions of signatures and more. No presidential campaign in American political history has ever done that. And so I want to thank all of those dedicated volunteers and congratulate the campaign staff.
who coordinated this enormous logistical feat. Your accomplishments were regarded as impossible. You carried me up that glass mountain, you pulled off a miracle, you achieved what all the pundits said could never be done. You have my deepest gratitude and I'm never going to forget that, not just for what you did for my campaign, but for the sacrifices you made because you love our country. You showed everyone that democracy is still possible here. It continues to survive in the press and in the idealistic human energies.
that still thrive beneath a canvas of neglect and of official and institutional corruption. Today I'm here to tell you that I will not allow your efforts to go to waste. I'm here to tell you that I will leverage your tremendous accomplishments to serve the ideals that we share, the ideals of peace, of prosperity, of freedom, of health, all the ideals that motivated my campaign. I'm here today to describe the path forward that you've opened with your commitment and with your hard labors.
So he goes on to say, so Mr. Truth Ultra is going to lay it out. He's not terminating his campaign. He's only suspending it in 10 battleground states in order to benefit Donald Trump. In a nutshell, RFK is staying on the ballot in states where his presence hurts Kamala, but he's removing himself from states where it hurts Trump. By staying on the ballot in key battleground states, he would likely hand the election over to Democrats.
This is absolutely brilliant. But this announcement revealed something very important. The 10 battleground states will be the states ripe with most fraud. I'm eager to learn which states he drops out in. He's also said that Trump and Harris could end up in the elect an electoral tie, resulting in him becoming president. So let's move on. So I cannot in good conscience ask my staff and volunteers to.
to keep working their long hours or ask my donors to keep giving when I cannot honestly tell them that I have a real path for the White House. Furthermore, our polling consistently showed that by staying on the ballot in the battleground states, I would likely hand the election over to the Democrats with whom I disagree on the most existential issues, censorship, war, and chronic disease.
I want everyone to know that I am not terminating my campaign. I am simply suspending it and not ending it. My name will remain on the ballot in most states. If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me without harming or helping President Trump or Vice President Harris. In red states, the same will apply.
I encourage you to vote for me. And if enough of you do vote for me, and neither of the major party candidates win 270 votes, which is quite possible. In fact, our polling shows them tying at 269 to 269. And I could conceivably still end up in the White House in a contingent election. But in about 10 battleground states,
where my presence would be a spoiler, I'm going to remove my name. And I've already started that process and urge voters not to vote for me. It's with a sense of victory and not defeat that I'm suspending my campaign activities. So there you have it. Guess what? During his speech, CNN cut away from his speech as he was explaining how the DNC rigged the primary.
replaced their candidate with one who didn't receive a single vote and how the media covered up for it and censored him. CNN cut away. And what did CNN do? They bring on some bastard first cousin of his to come on and say how Bobby's wrong to do this and how his father would be rolling over in his grave. No, JFK and RFK Sr. would be rolling over in their grave of what has become of the Democratic Party. That's what... Because right now, what this means...
Is is that the Democrats have fully become the party of George W. Bush. They're they're anti freedom. They're anti democratic. They're rigging primaries. They're using lawfare against their political opponents. They're getting people kicked off the back of the exact opposite of Democrats and they're pro war and anti worker.
And they're pro-censorship. The hallmark of dictators and authoritarians. And if you watch this Democratic convention, it was all run on Trump hate. That was it. They don't have policies. They don't have anything. They have Trump hate. That's it. Our billionaires are better than their billionaires. That was their argument. So CNN is evil.
Just so you know, I had two producers from CNN want to come to my show on Friday because they want to do a documentary on the left. And I was like, no, you can't come. And then they went at the DNC. They wanted to interview me and they kept reaching out. I was like, no, CNN's evil. I don't trust them at all. And what do I get out of being on CNN? Nothing. I'm more popular than CNN is. Yeah.
So here, oh, he's going to make the same point. Watch this. Instead of showing us her substance and character, the DNC and its media organs engineered a surge of popularity for Vice President Harris based upon nothing. Nothing. No policies. Based on nothing. No interviews. No debates. No, nothing. Only smoke and mirrors and balloons and highly...
produce chicago circus there in chicago a string of democratic speakers mentioned donald trump 147 times just on the first day oh who needs a policy when you have trump to hate in contrast at the rnc convention president biden was mentioned only twice in four days so they cut away from that cnn did not want you to see any of that uh and that's 100 true and accurate
So here, Canoka the Great makes a point. He says Democrat mega-donor Reid Hoffman, we've showed you Reid Hoffman. He was the one who said, well, I don't... Anyway, he runs the Democratic Party. He's one of those guys. He's the billionaire that...
He's Democratic megadonor Reid Hoffman and Ron Conway's clear choice pack sued to remove Robert Kennedy Jr. from the ballot, stripping millions of his voters of their choice. This led Kennedy to form a unity party with President Trump. Let's be clear about what's happening. The Democratic Party, which lectures the nation about voter suppression and protecting democracy, disenfranchised millions of American voters.
And that's what dictators do. The thing that they claim Trump is the Democratic Party is today. They have all the bad things that George W. Bush had and Dick Cheney and then some worse. Here is Federal Election Commission, Clear Choice, Clear Choice Pack, Inc. Ronald Conway, Reid Hoffman. Yeah. Okay. So.
Here RFK says he's going to join Trump on the campaign. Watch this. I'm giving the chance to fix the chronic disease crisis and reform our food production. I promise that within two years, we will watch chronic disease burden lift dramatically. So he's going to be an environmentalist. He's going to go after big agri. He's going after big agriculture. He's going to be an environmentalist. He talked about in this speech about how 50% of American kids are overweight or obese. You know, in Japan, it's 2%. And he's got a plan to fix it.
Yeah, we eat garbage. We eat our food supplies, poison. I've just woken up to this since I started following a Midwestern doctor's sub stack. I thought not all about seed oils. Seed oils are in everything. Seed oils are poison. Seed oils are poison. You should only be eating avocado oil or olive oil or butter or ghee.
That's it. And fat's not. And the whole thing about fat is bad for you is a lie. Cholesterol, it's a lie. OK, so anyway, that's another segment. But he he really is going to do something. We will make Americans healthy again. Within four years, America will be a healthy country. We will be stronger, more resilient, more optimistic and happier. I won't fail in doing this. Ultimately, the future, however it happens, is in God's hands.
and in the hands of the American voters and those of President Trump. If President Trump is elected and honors his word, the vast burden of chronic disease that now demoralizes and bankrupts the country will disappear. This is a spiritual journey for me. I reach my decision through deep prayer, through hard-nosed logic, and I ask myself, what choices must I make to maximize my chances to save America's children and restore national health?
I felt that if I refused this opportunity, I would not be able to look myself in the mirror, knowing that I could have saved lives of countless children and reversed this country's chronic disease epidemic. I'm 70 years old. I may have a decade to be effective. I can't imagine that President Harris would allow me or anyone to solve these dire problems. After eight years of President Harris, any opportunity for me to fix the problem will be out of my reach forever. President Trump has told me that he wants this to be his legacy. I'm choosing to believe that this time he will follow through.
His son, his biggest donors, his closest friends, and all support this objective. My joining the Trump campaign will be a difficult sacrifice for my wife and children, but worthwhile if there's even a small chance of saving these kids. Ultimately, the only thing that will save our country and our children is if we choose to love our kids more than we hate each other.
That's why I launched my campaign to unify America. My dad and uncle made such an enduring mark on the character of our nation, not so much because of any particular policies that they promoted, but because they were able to inspire profound love for our country and to fortify our sense of ourselves as a national community.
held together by ideals. They were able to put their love into the intentions and hearts of ordinary Americans and to unify a national populist movement of Americans, blacks and whites, Hispanics, urban and rural Americans, inspired affection and love and high hopes and a culture of kindness that continued to radiate among Americans from their memory. That's the spirit on which I ran my campaign and that I intend to bring into the campaign of President Trump. Instead of vitriol and polarization, I will appeal to the values that unite us
the goals that we could achieve if only we weren't at each other's throats. The most unifying theme for all Americans is that we all love our children. If we all unite around that issue now, we can finally give them the protection, the health, and the future that they deserve. Thank you all very much. So the Republican Party is now a party of environmentalism. So I'm going to show you in just a second that when Bobby got introduced by Trump at the rally today,
in Arizona, they cheered for him and they cheered for him saying he's going to clean up the food supply and he's going to take on big agribusiness and act big agriculture. They cheered for him. That's Republicans cheering on an environmentalist. The things have. So so that is an amazing story. That's the inspiring Bobby Kennedy that he can be. That's the guy who can bring people together. Now, the
The one problem, the thing that kept me from getting on board Bobby Kennedy's was his stance on Israel-Palestine. So, you know, and I say if you can't, you have to be able to draw the line at a genocide, which is what's happening, or some people call it ethnic cleansing. And I have a, well, now, you know what I've been saying that, you know, Trump is often over the top in his rhetoric.
And then like you did with Kim Jong-un in North Korea, and then he brings it around. So he does that. So he creates space for himself to get a settlement. Right. Just like Nixon could only go to. It was Nixon who spent his whole career as a red baiter. He went and got friendly relations with China. And they said only only someone like Nixon can do that. Because if somebody from the left did it, they would be calling the communist. So.
My hope, my cross your fingers sliver of a hope is that that's what Trump is doing with Israel and that he's going to because he likes to force a deal. They're both on the same page when it comes to ending the war in Ukraine. Now, that's what Bobby says. And the Bobby and Trump says at the today, he said he wants to obliterate the deep state.
So I'm going to get to that. I'm going to get to that. But this is so there's other people starting to agree with my opinion about that. The Republicans have a better chance to force a deal in Israel, Palestine than the Democrats. So other people. So that's been my contention.

After Bobby gave that speech today, announcing that he's going to drop out of the swing states, but he's going to stay in the red and blue states on the ballot. He's going to drop out of the swing states because he doesn't want to hurt Trump. He certainly doesn't want to help Kamala Harris.
So he goes to this in Arizona. He goes to this rally that Trump's doing in Arizona and Trump introduces him and people go crazy for RFK. This guy has made his whole life as an environmentalist. And now he's fighting big pharma the last 10, 15 years, which is why the media has turned him into a crazy. But of course, he's not crazy. He's on point with that. He knows exactly what he's talking about when it comes to vaccines and the FDA and health and safety and the safety of our food supply. He knows exactly what he's talking about.
And Republicans are cheering that. So Trump said he's going to put RFK on the presidential commission. And guess what? For what? To put him on a commission to release the assassination docs on RFK and JFK. Watch this. And this is a tribute in honor of Bobby. I am announcing tonight that upon my election, I will establish a new independent presidential commission on assassination attempts. Yes!
And they will be tasked with releasing all of the remaining documents pertaining to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. That's unbelievable. And he also said prior to this that he is going to obliterate that. He said the Democrats love the deep state. I'm going to obliterate it. Now, the last guy who said that was JFK, and we know what happened to him.
So it seems like Trump has got his balls back. I don't know what's going on, but something happened. Here we go. And they will also conduct a rigorous review of the attack last month. But I tell you, I have never had more people ask me, please, sir, release the documents on the Kennedy assassination. So that's amazing. So then he introduces Bobby. Let's Bobby give a speech. He gives like a five, four or five minute speech.
And I want you to listen to this. And I want you to, it's remarkable for several reasons. One, that the Republicans are cheering for it. Now, Glenn Greenwald talked about this a year or two ago, about the difference between Trump Republicans and establishment Republicans. There is a difference. And so, watch this. Now, Bobby made his bones as an environmental lawyer. They're cheering an environmentalist. That's what's happening at a Republican presidential campaign.
A few hours after the assassination attempt at Butler, I got a call from a safe food advocate named Kelly Means, who's been fighting for many years to try to end the corruption at CDC and FDA and USDA. So he's talking about taking on the regulatory agencies and fighting big corporations. Yes.
And they're cheering it at a Republican presidential rally. Let that sink in, how it has flipped and how immediately Donald Trump is miles to the left of Kamala Harris. He is far, far to the left. Like I said before, when he announced he's going to get the taxes off tip wages, I go, he's immediately already to the left of Kamala Harris. He's already.
And then Kamala Harris, then she copied his proposal because it was so popular. Even though a year earlier, she cast a tie-breaking vote to make sure you could go after tipped wages. So just this is enormous. This is really kind of groundbreaking what's happening. And these institutions, these regulatory agencies are actually run by the big food processing companies, the big ag and the chemical companies.
that they're supposed to regulate. And they're booing big corporations that run our food production and chemical companies. He's got Republicans. I know I'm repeating myself, but he's got Republicans at a Republican presidential rally cheering and booing big corporations, cheering him to regulate them and clean them up and get the corruption out of them and booing these big corporations. That is amazing.
He said to me that he'd been advising me for many years and on my campaign, and he told me that night that he was also advising President Trump. And he asked if I would talk to President Trump. And I said, "Of course." And about a few minutes later, I got a call from the president. And we talked. We had a very good talk. And then he invited me to come see him the next day. And I went to Minneapolis and saw him. We met again a couple of weeks later in Florida. And we talked about, not about the things that separate us because we don't agree on everything,
but on the values and the issues that bind us together. And one of the issues that he talked about was having safe food and ending the chronic disease epidemic. Our children are now the unhealthiest, sickest children in the world. Don't you want healthy children? And don't you want the chemicals out of our food? And don't you want the regulatory agencies to be free from corporate corruption? And that's what President Trump told me that he wanted. He also told me that he wanted to end the grip of the neocons on U.S. foreign policy.
That is amazing. The end of the grip of neocons on our forecast. Who else is a neocon? Joe Biden. Guess who else is a neocon? Kamala Harris. Guess who else? Everybody who runs the Democratic Party. They're neocons. They're the party of George Bush and Dick Cheney now. And this is why CNN cut away when he started saying this is when they cut away. No, they don't want this message. OK, here we go.
He said he didn't want any more 200 trillion, 200 billion dollar wars in Ukraine that we could use that money back here in the United States. He's now anti-war. So now Trump becomes anti-war. He sounds like, first of all, right now, that sounds like what we say on this show. That's what I say at all my live events. You know, lefties just want to, we just want to end the wars, invest that money back here and have health care that doesn't bankrupt us. And he's going to clean up the food supply. He's going to get everybody healthy. Here we go.
The crowd is cheering. And the safest, the best way to build a safe America is to rebuild our industrial base and rebuild the middle class in this country. And don't you want a president who's going to get us out of the wars and who's going to rebuild the middle class in this country? This is unbelievable. And he told me that he wanted to end the censorship because the whole basis of American democracy is the free flow of information. And we know that a government...
He's pro free speech, anti censorship. He's now he's the peace candidate and he wants to go after big agribusiness and the regulatory agencies and fight to clean up our food supply for big corporations and chemical corporate. This is this. This is what the Democrats should be saying, because, first of all, it's popular. Second of all, it's the right thing to do. This is what people have been. This is populism.
And CNN doesn't want to show you that. The Democrats don't want to show you that. And now Trump and Bobby Kennedy are miles to the left of Kamala Harris. But if if this message gets out, which it will, I'm I'm bringing it to you right here on this show. They will crush Kamala Harris, crush her.
All the fake, phony, empty enthusiasm that I saw at the Democratic Convention this week for Kamala Harris, which is just fake. It's just based on she has a vagina and she's black. That's all it is. That's all it is. And people are projecting things onto her. You talk to anybody in that Democratic Convention Hall, nobody has a clue about policy and they don't care. OK, here we go. That can silence its opponents as license for any kind of atrocity.
And can you think of any time that you can look back in history and say that the people who were censoring were the good guys? They're always the bad guys. Because it's always the first step down that slippery slope to totalitarianism. And don't you want a president who's going to protect America's freedoms and who is going to protect us against totalitarianism? And I want to ask you again, don't you want a safe environment for your children?
He's got Republicans. Oh, you want to know that the food that you're feeding them is not filled with chemicals that are going to give them cancer and chronic disease. There's cheering environmentalism. And don't you want a president that's going to make America healthy again? Thank you all very, very much. And God bless you. And God bless America. That's amazing.
What you're seeing here is historic. That is amazing. That is the complete flip-flop of the parties. There's Trump and Bobby Kennedy being populists, being anti-war, pro-free speech, anti-corruption in government. That's what's happening. He's miles to the left of Kamala Harris. How is Kamala Harris going to combat this? She's not. She's not because she's an idiot and she's corrupt, 100%, 100%.
And so this leaves the problem of Israel-Palestine because they have the same position as Kamala Harris and Joe Biden and Tim Walz, right? So that's the big problem, right? Well, what I've been saying is, you know, Trump likes to make deals. And what he'll often do is be over the top in his rhetoric and then like he was with North Korea and then make a deal.
And he said, you know, I would end that Ukraine war in 24 hours. And he knows exactly how to do it. Hey, I'm going to cut off your money. That's it. And then that's it, because that is what would end it. That's the same thing that would end the Israel-Palestine conflict. I'm going to cut off your arms and I'm going to cut off your money. And that's that. Because Israel's economy is cratering right now. And Zionism looks like it's going to be a fail. My Jewish friends who are in the space, Russell and Keaton, tell me that it's failing.
that there's a big brain drain leaving Israel. Now Israel is supposed to be there to create a safe zone for Jewish people. It now is going to be the least safe place to be because of all the carnage and the genocide and the ethnic cleansing and the murdering of the Palestinians that they've done. They're creating anti-Semitism. Zionism is. And they've conflated, the Zionists have conflated Zionism with Judaism.
They want to do that. So when you criticize Zionism, they can call it anti-Semitism. But it's not because the most Jewish Jews, which are the Hasidic Jews, are against Zionism. Did you know that? People don't know that. I was on Benny Johnson's show last night. He didn't know that. Yeah, the Hasidic Jews are not on board for Zionism and for the Israel project. Did you know that?
So, I've been saying that I think just like how Nixon was, he was a red baiter his entire career. He was able to go, because they always said, well, only Nixon could go to China. Because that was a big deal when he did that. Because anybody who was less than a red baiting maniac right winger, if they went to China to open up, they would say, oh, he's a communist. That lefties, you know, he's too red. Right.
So just like so Trump did that with Kim Jong Un and he's talked in the past about we don't have to be enemies with Russia or China. We could we can turn our enemy enemies into friends. And he's right about that.
And so he's also said he's going to end the Ukraine war. And so I hope I was hoping I'm like, am I crazy to think this, that he is doing over the top rhetoric so he can come in and force a deal? Because I found that audio tape where he says F that it's Benjamin Netanyahu that doesn't want to deal. The Palestinians want to deal. And he had a very warm relationship with the leader of the PLO.
very warm and he realized that those guys want a deal and it's that benjamin netanyahu and the israelis that don't want a deal and so i was hoping that trump was being over the top rhetoric first to get the 100 million bucks from adelson's wife uh widow which he got and then so he could go in and force a deal because that's trump wants that we have credit for deals that's his deal that's his deal baby
Well, guess what? So I've been saying that, right? And I haven't heard anyone else saying anything close to that, except now here's this guy, Zaid Jelani. He says, the last thing Democrats want to hear, but I don't work for them, so here it is. If Democrats are unwilling to use leverage against Israel, then it falls to persuasion. Netanyahu is more likely to be persuaded by Republicans than Democrats to settle it.
Netanyahu has to pick an endpoint to this war to declare victory and kicking the Dems out of power is a good point for him.
Members of his cabinet said that they don't want a ceasefire. That's a gift to Biden. It would hurt Trump. Biden and Harris are getting played by him. They're getting played by Netanyahu. So look at this part. It would be humiliating for the Democrats to lose the election. Trump takes office and Netanyahu declares victory. And then Trump brags that he brought about a peace deal with Israel-Palestine.
But that's a real possibility right now because Biden and Harris don't use U.S. leverage to stop the war. So there's the first other person I've seen say this. And so there's my fingers crossed hope for the Israel-Palestine is there. It certainly isn't in the Democratic Party. It certainly isn't with Biden-Walls or Biden-Harris or Harris-Walls. It is not.
She wants, in her speech, she's talking about she wants to bomb Iran. They're nuts. The Democrats are completely like listening to Dick Cheney and George Bush, listening to Harris talk. They're nuts. So there it is. So it's big day, super big day. I think Bobby pushes Trump way left. Trump was already to the left of Harris. He was. Bobby pushes Trump even. Now they are so...
I don't think Harris' campaign, they're dumb. They were dumb at the DNC. And the people at the DNC, it was so depressing. They're all brainwashed zombies, zombies, brain dead zombies. They don't care about anything. They don't care about this country. They treated going to the Democratic National Convention as like, it was like they were all going to prom. That's what it was like. Mike, you were there with me. You saw the people. That's what it was exactly like. And they couldn't give a shit about policy.
It was all about hating Trump. And so I had one more point to make, and now it's slipping from my mind. So what's this? We already did. So so it's this is historic. This is big. And Trump said earlier in that speech that he wants to obliterate the deep state. And the Democrats certainly don't.
Now they're going to take on big pharma. They're going to take on the FDA, the CDC. They're going to take on big agra. This is amazing. They're going to end the war in Ukraine. They're going to end the war in Ukraine. That's what they're saying. That's what they're saying. And at some point, Kamala Harris is going to have to take a question from the media.
The brain-dead Democrat. So in 2016, when I went to the Democratic Convention, because they didn't have one in 2020 because of COVID. So in 2016, when I went, half of the delegates inside the convention hall were anti-democratic corruption. They were against the party and the party leadership because they were Bernie delegates. Bernie ran against the Democratic Party in 2016. And so it was a raucous event. It was great.
There was actual policy discussion. There were people, there was friction. There was debate happening. There was none of that this time. None. It was a bunch of brainwashed, brain-dead zombies cheering corruption. That's what they were doing. And division in the country, because that's what the Democratic Convention was all about. It was all about hating the deplorables. It was all about hating your neighbor. It was all about hate, hate, hate. And then...
And then a bunch of millionaires and billionaires pretending that they are discriminated against in our country. They had Oprah and Obama. Oh, and abortion. Oh, they can't stop talking about abortion, how sweet it is. They talk about abortion like it's Christmas. It's the weirdest thing in the world. If you saw that interview I did with the originator of The Daily Show, Liz Winstead, she
I'm pro-choice. She's pro-abortion. And she's proud of it. You got to be pro. Like, she talks about abortion like it's Christmas. Like, it's a great thing. Like, it's a good thing. It's not like... That's like to me like being pro-amputation. Yeah. Oh, it's so great we can amputate a leg. No, you do that. It's always a dark thing. But if you do that to save the life, then you have to do it. But that's how they... You don't go, yay, I'm pro-amputation. Oh, what she told me? On abortion. Yeah. Yeah.
I said, well, what is it? Yeah. I said, what's your message for me? Someone like me who I have qualms about abortion, but I'm pro-choice because I don't want the government getting in between a doctor and a patient. I just don't want that. So I think that thought that was the gold standard. And she said, no, you're not really, you're too wishy-washy. You have to be pro-abortion. And I was like, well, what's your message for someone like me? She didn't have one. She goes, well, you got to look inward, she said. And that requires a longer conversation. What? Yeah.
You don't have a message for people like me, though. They don't have a message. So anyway, that's the Democratic Party for you. They're super pro-abortion. That's all they talked about. They talked about dividing the country. They talked about hating your neighbor and fearing your neighbor. And it's nuts. This is amazing what's happening here. So this is amazing. They got a Kennedy. The Democratic Party is so corrupt.
The Democratic Party is so fascistic, so anti-democratic that they got Bobby Kennedy to endorse a Republican for president. That's how bad the Democratic Party is. And they're in collusion with the corporate media. The Democratic Party is the establishment party now. And they're in bed with the media. And the media is covering for them. They told you Joe Biden was fine up until five minutes ago.
They all lied to you. The media, I mean. Cheap fakes. You guys are conspiracy theorists. CNN is the liars. CNN is the conspiracy theorists. CNN are the evil. The MSNBC, the ABC News, the Washington Post, the New York Times. They're evil. And they're bought by the people who don't give a shit about you. It's all smoke and mirrors. All of it.
So this is groundbreaking what's happening in politics right now. These Republicans cheering a populist message that used to, you would think was supposed to come from the Democratic Party, but it ain't. It's coming from the Republicans. Crazy. People are asking, am I really falling for this? What do you mean falling? What does that mean? Well, at least they're saying it. First of all, I trust, I certainly trust the people are saying, can you trust what they're saying? I trust Bobby Kennedy. What are you saying?
Certainly, I do. Trump didn't start any wars. He's the only president that didn't start any wars. And the deep state tried to kill him. So I made that point on Benny Johnson's show last night. Say what you want. They're not trying to kill Joe Biden. They're not trying to kill Kamala Harris.
They are trying to kill Trump. And why is that? Because Trump has the naive idea that the president should control the intelligence community and the president should control them. Oh, hi, baby. And the president should control the military. That's what Trump thinks. So then you realize that no president has controlled the military since JFK. None of them. And Trump thought the president should. And that's why they're trying to kill him.
So you can't deny that. So it's not about falling. But what do you mean fall? I just saw a stadium full of Republicans cheering, cheering for environmental policy, cheering for freedom of speech, cheering for ending wars. Are you going to fall for that? You think all the people in that crowd are lying? You don't think they're genuinely enthusiastic because they are. So that's a populist message.
And now, if I had more time, I would go to show you the video that Glenn Greenwald did where he discussed the difference between Trump Republicans and establishment Republicans. And so there's a that I think this is very real. I think this is very real. And I think Trump is 70, you know, what, eight years old or whatever. And he wants to leave a legacy. And, you know, the entire establishment loved Donald Trump up until he beat Hillary Clinton for president.
Oprah encouraged him to run. She's like, you should you you and I should run together. She loved him. Oprah loved him. The women of The View love Donald Trump. They get NBC loved him. They gave him his own goddamn television show for over 10 years. They gave him Emmy nominations. The establishment loved Donald Trump. The Clintons used to got Bill Clinton goes to a golfing with them. Their kids are best friends. It was Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton that encouraged Donald Trump to run for president in the first place.
So it's nothing to fall for. And the Democratic Party is unbelievably undemocratic. That's why they have super donors, super delegates. Republicans don't have that. That's why they use lawfare against their political opponents. The Republicans aren't doing that. Donald Trump didn't go after Hillary Clinton. He didn't lock her up. He didn't do any of that shit. Guess who's doing that? Joe Biden and the Democrats. So there's nothing to fall for. I'm sticking my head down the street and I'm reporting back what I see.
That's what's happening. Not falling for anything. I'm telling you what's happening. There's a stadium full of people cheering. I just came from a stadium full of people cheering for hatred, division, and for war. They're cheering for war. They're cheering the other way. Those people were cheering for mandates, and they're cheering for censorship, and they're cheering for war, and division, and hating your neighbor. I just came from a stadium full of people that did that all week.
And now here's a stadium full of people doing the exact opposite. So there's nothing to fall for. These are just facts. These are just facts. I don't think too many of you people have heard of him. He's very low key. He's a very low key person, but he's highly respected. He is a great person. I've known him for so long. For the past 16 months, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Look at that. See if they're still playing music. Yeah. Yeah, they are.
And Trump's got to be thinking, how did I settle for J.D. Vance? I could have had this guy. Right? It's like eating a Sparrow's pizza because you mistook it for a Spago. And he deserves it. He deserves it. So now Kamala has to come up with actual things to say. She was just trying to coast along on love vibe and laughter. She's going to tell, I bet you she tells Walls that he needs to get a brain worm just for sympathy. That's what I think is going to happen. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
This is like being on stage with Trump is like a comic doing Rogan. The world is just a slightly different place when they leave the studio. So in the age of miracles, Kennedy has figured out a way to become an outsider. How did that happen? How did Donald Trump, a billionaire, and a Kennedy become outsiders? Well, they are because they're hated by the media and they're hated by the establishment. ♪
And guess what happened because of that? So because they won't let a Palestinian speak, there are these what they call uncommitted delegates. There's not many of them. So they're pretending they're delegates for the Democratic Party, and they're pretending that they're not going to vote for Kamala Harris. And they're doing a sit-in. You want to see it? Here it is.
So they're upset that they're so all they want. This is literally what they're asking for. All they want is for a speaker to be allowed on stage at the Democratic National Convention. Boy, talk about a small ask. So this is their big demand. Their big demand is we're going to sit out. So they're sitting outside the hall. They're still in a fenced in area. You can't get in without a pass. So they're out just outside the hall in a fenced in area and they're all sitting there.
And what do they want? They want a Palestinian speaker to be loud on stage. And the Democrats say no. Kamala Harris says no. No. And so here's this guy, James Zogby. He tweeted this out. And who is James Zogby? I'll show you who he is. James Zogby is the founder of Arab Americans in the USA. JamesZogby.com. He worked for Jesse Jackson in 84 and 88. And he worked for Sanders in 16 and 20.
And he's a Democrat. He gives them his support without demanding anything. And so he tweets this out.
He tweets this out and he says, memo to the Harris camp. Well, let's listen to what this guy says and then we'll read his tweet. This is not James Ogby speaking. This is one of the uncommitted protesters. He's a leader. I'm waiting for the call. As soon as I get the call saying...
that they'll allow a Palestinian American speaker from this stage, which I think would be very reasonable, then I want to go home. Until then, we'll be right here. My phone is charged. I'm waiting for the call. I will not suppress the voices. So that's it. That's their big demand. Their big demand is they want a speaker on stage there, and then that's it.
So James Ogby says, memo to Harris campaign. Since you invited American Jews with a child held captive in Gaza, you should have also invited a speaker, a Palestinian American with family in Gaza suffering from the assault. Palestinians deserve respect. To fail to do this is an unforced error. Fix it now. That's what he says.
And let me see if I have my tweet in here. I said, people like this can't admit to themselves that they support and are going to vote for a politician committed to genocide. They beclown themselves by pretending having a Palestinian speaker at the DNC is going to fix something. You are supporting evil and genocide, full stop. Okay. So, I mean, I guess it's better than nothing. I'm glad they're protesting a little.
As you know, I know there's lots of Muslims in Michigan who have said they're not going to vote for. Is that what they're doing? So here's what some people said to that. It's wild to me that any of these people think the DNC, the Democratic National Committee, and particularly Kamala Harris, cares about them at all. She doesn't. They don't.
They don't. And it's embarrassing that they keep begging for scraps at the table because that's what they're doing. How many more ways can the DNC say we don't want you before they'll get it? Yup, they are still going to vote for her despite the fact that she's been murdering Palestinians for almost a year and has no intention to ever stop. I'd never be able to forgive or forget this heinous crime. Oh, and guess what? So now there's this Muslim Women for Harris campaign.
How that is even a thing is beyond me, but it is. That's a real thing. So here's what they they put out a letter because they won't let a Palestinian speak. We cannot in good conscience continue Muslim women for Harris. Wow. It only took what, 11 months of a genocide that they're funding for you to put your foot down?
We cannot in good conscience continue Muslim women for Harris. In light of this new information from the uncommitted movement, that Vice President Harris team declined their request to have a Palestinian American speaker take the stage at the DNC. That's your red line? That's your red line? Talk about begging for a scrap of a scrap. That's your red line.
The family of the Israeli hostage that was on the stage tonight has shown more empathy towards Palestinian Americans and Palestinians than our candidate or the DNC has. This is a terrible message to send to Democrats. Palestinians have the right to speak about Palestine. We pray that the DNC and the Vice President Harris team makes the right decision before the convention is over for the sake of each of us.
So we can get back to supporting Kamala Harris. Just put a speaker on stage and we're going to vote for you. We're going to be Muslims for you. That is bonkers. Why wouldn't they try to support? Brianna Taylor's apartment walls matter, says poster child of shit lives. Wait until they start getting confronted on. Oh, wait, this is different. That's from a different thing. That's not that's not for this. So you got to remember.
what Lawrence O'Donnell said. Lawrence O'Donnell said this before he had his own show on MSNBC. Now, he'll never say this again. But you've got to remember this. If you want to pull the party, the major party that is closest to the way you're thinking, to what you're thinking, you must, you must show them that you're capable of not voting for them. Because the way the Democratic Party... Did you hear? So that's been my message.
Since 2016, if you want to pull the Democratic Party to your position, you must show them that you're capable and willing to not vote for them. When I did that, I told Hillary Clinton after they cheated Bernie and Bernie bent the knee. I said, come get my vote. That's how politics works.
Come get my vote. That's what Kyle Kalinsky used to say. He no longer says it anymore because he has a shit-lip billionaire Democratic donor that gets him on the good algorithm at YouTube. No doubt. That's my theory anyway. No doubt that's happening. That's what he used to say. Doesn't say it anymore.
That's what I still say. I've been the one who's consistent. People hate me for saying that they hated me. I lost a lot of friends in Hollywood. I had a lot of heat come down my neck in Hollywood in 2016 because I said that I soon thereafter got an email from my manager saying that we're no longer working together. Didn't say why. Didn't say why.
So, but I had the executive producer of Modern Family come at me on social media because they heard my radio show on KPFK where I was telling the truth about Hillary Clinton and I was saying, come get my vote. That's how this works. Hillary Clinton wouldn't come get my vote. Joe Biden would not come get my vote. Kamala Harris is not trying to come get my vote. So let's listen to Lawrence O'Donnell. I'll probably play this all the way through. It's pretty remarkable.
Not to pull the party, the major party, that is closest to the way you're thinking, to what you're thinking. You must, you must show them that you're capable of not voting for them. Because the way the Democratic Party is run now for quite a number of presidential cycles is they pick a nominee in a kind of half-assed process that doesn't really represent much of anybody and then they tell everybody to just shut up.
Don't bring up anything that will complicate life for your nominee. You know he's not for you on this. Why badger him? He's not going to be for you for reasons that you don't understand but are good reasons. Shut up. Turn off your brains. And that's what I was told in 2016. I was told that by people at the Young Turks. They would bring people on the show just to say that to me.
I was told that by the executive producer of Modern Family. I was told that by comedian friends of mine. I was told that by people in the same political space as me on YouTube. I was told that by everybody. Even Bernie Sanders said that kind of stuff. So back to Lawrence O'Donnell. If you don't show them you're capable of not voting for them, they don't have to listen to you. I promise you that. I worked within the Democratic Party.
I didn't listen or have to listen to anything on the left while I was working in the Democratic Party because the left had nowhere to go. Because the left has nowhere to go. And that's why you see stuff like this. You see stuff like Muslim women for Harris because they got nowhere to go. They got nowhere to go.
