Get ready for an outstanding entertainment program.
The Jimmy Dore Show!
Hello.
Hey, hello, is this Representative King?
Who wants to know?
It's Jimmy Dore.
Okay, Jim.
How are you?
I'm doing well.
What do you want?
I just wanted to chat for a minute if you have time.
Sure, why the hell not?
What are you doing?
Are you busy?
I'm microwaving sausages.
So, if by busy, you mean making lunch for me and my schnauses, then yes, I'm busy.
Okay, well, I'll make it brief then.
I'd like to talk to you about Donald Trump.
God, Jesus fracking Christ on a crutch over here.
I don't want to talk about that.
Why not?
Look, some other time.
Some other time.
Why some other time?
We'll talk about that later.
Why?
Why some other time?
Now's just not the time.
I just know.
Congressman.
No.
Please.
No.
Congressman, Donald Trump is the presumptive nominee for the Republican Party.
You, sir, are a Republican leader in Congress.
How can you have no opinions about this?
I didn't say I ain't had no opinions, Jimmy boy.
I got opinions out to warzo.
Well, share them.
This is a safe space here on the Jimmy Dore show.
All right.
Look, there's a cycle.
Trump says something bananas, and then the media repeats it 20 million freaking times.
And then they come to us for comment.
It happens constantly, and we're all getting all tired of it.
Must we ever answer for this dodo birds bon mutts?
Well, maybe not answer them per se, but you know, at least comment.
For example, his latest comments doubled down on his anti-Muslim stance.
Okay, yeah, right.
See, this is exactly what I'm talking about here.
What do you mean?
Well, before old Pumpkinhead came around, I was the anti-Muslim guy.
I was a guy who talked about how the mosques were trained in camp for terrorists or whatever I said.
Who knows?
People knew me.
They knew the way my song and dance went.
You know, here comes old P.D. King waging a holy war against the Saracens in the Congress, people would say.
I was a known quantity.
Right.
Then here comes Trump taking a hard line on the Mohammedans that made my hard line look as soft as Lindsey Graham at scores.
I'm getting out-hardlined over here, and we can't have that.
So his comments on Islam are too extreme even for you.
Well, not on any kind of personal or ideological level, mind you, but in a political sense, yes.
I don't get it.
I don't understand.
Well, let me explain it to you, Amelia Bedir.
On any issue in American politics, you have to have a range of two extremes that average out to a reasonable central position.
So take the Muslim thing.
You had my hardline position, and then on the far left over there, you had the position that basically said that we should be legally forced to let Muslims fuck our wives as reparations for the crusades.
Now, somewhere in the middle of those two would be the idea that Muslims aren't inherently terrorists, but that there is a homegrown threat of terrorism and perhaps radicalizing influences should be monitored in a constitutionally acceptable way by the state.
But you have to keep the two extremes where they are to keep that average.
Oh, okay.
If you move the hardline shit over to the right, you see, you drag the middle position further to the fucking right, too.
And then he got problems.
So Trump is just saying that we should ban all the Muslims and put them in camps or whatever.
That throws off the whole goddamn thing we've been working on together.
The right and the left.
He's got no friggin' idea about this delicate balance we've achieved since 9-11.
He's screwing everything up left and right, literally.
Oh, you know what?
Sometimes I just think you're a bloviating simpleton, but then sometimes I think you're just a Machiavellian long game player.
That's how I prefer to be daughter right there.
I'm playing a long game, Jims.
Okay.
And I got the country's welfare, welfare, at heart and mind.
This Trump guy doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.
I've been bashing Muslims for years now, and he thinks he could jump into the party.
I'm personally offended.
Well, we're offended for you.
Listen, what do you do?
You think that Paul Ryan's going to try and take over?
You know, kind of try to do a coup at the convention?
Because that's what people are hinting.
Nah, he's too much of a puss.
Yeah.
Yeah, you can lift weights and listen to Rage Against the Machine all you want.
You're not fooling anybody.
That kid ain't got no backbone.
Okay.
So.
Cottage cheese-eating Wisconsin fruit.
So now they say this is they, but did you agree that Trump is going to really hurt you in the in the Senate and the Congress?
I mean, in the election.
Oh, right.
Right.
He's going to screw everything up.
No one's going to.
Yeah, he's going to get the.
It's going to be the witch lady all over again, like a Delaware.
He's going to force everyone who's a Republican over to vote for the Wagadoodles.
Yeah.
So we're going to get a whole bunch of more Ted Cruzies in here.
Thanks to that a-hole.
You see what I mean?
We have a balance over here in the government.
Yeah, you know, I get I see your theory now.
I don't know if I doesn't necessarily agree with it.
But yeah, believe me, that's how it goes.
Well, in fact, I don't agree with it, but I appreciate you sharing the inside of a Republican congressman's mind from the Northeast.
It's really a fascinating journey.
I want to say thanks for letting us see inside your head today.
Thanks a lot.
All right.
Well, my sausages are about done anyway.
Gonna be a nice little feast for me, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, and Mr. Wiggles.
Those are my schnauss.
Yes, I got that.
They breed him, you know.
Oh, no, I didn't.
You breed schnauzers.
Purebred schnausers.
Really?
Wow.
How did that...
Dogs are the best.
You kidding me?
How did you settle on a schnauzer?
Look at them.
How can you not?
They're loyal.
They don't put up with any shit from strangers.
That's that.
Yeah, People knocking on the door.
That's a dog version of a foreigner.
They hate him.
It's a good.
It's a good breed for me to have.
Oh, I get it.
Okay.
Wow.
Well, you know, your conservatism is really runs deep with you, Senator.
I mean, Congressman King.
So again, the more we talk, the more fascinating it becomes.
Blood in, blood out.
That's what I say.
Okay.
And you're a sorry excuse for an Irishman.
I'd just like to point that out, Toby.
Yeah, I definitely am.
I definitely am a sorry excuse for an Irishman.
I don't know.
What would be a good excuse for an Irishman?
Because I'm not race?
I don't know what that means.
Because you're liberals.
Oh.
Okay.
You're taking the side against your own people.
Yeah.
There's a special place in hell for that.
We're all one people.
Round world last time I checked.
That means literally nothing.
Yeah, it's a round world and there's a one little green island in there where we're all supposed to stick together.
Okay.
All right.
I appreciate it.
We're all sticking together.
Thank you, Congressman.
We're on the same side, I guess.
It's the Jimmy Dore Show.
The show for...
Up-minded, lowly-lovered lefties.
The kind of people that are...
It's the show that makes Anderson Cooper save.
It's hard to talk to you, Kali.
And now, here's a guy who sounds a lot like me.
It's Jimmy Dore.
Hey, everybody.
Welcome to this week's Jimmy Dore show.
Good news.
Good news.
We started a crowdfunding campaign two months ago, eight weeks ago.
It just ended yesterday.
And guess what?
Our goal was $48,000.
You want to know how much we ended up getting?
Bam!
$59,714.
Bam.
Bam!
Holy shit.
124% funded.
We blew past that $48,000 goal.
That's right.
Thank you.
You did it.
I didn't do it.
You did it.
Thank you so much.
Thanks to everybody who did that.
I look forward to making a video eating donuts with Chris Christie and being a whore.
I'm going to be a whore.
Now you can get a new toupee.
I get a new toupee.
Oh, this one.
It's fucking.
And that third testicle removed.
I got to give that.
Boy.
Call me Double D. Okay, so thank you very much and welcome to this week's show.
I am joined in the studio from the Miserable Liberal blog.
It's our resident Latina.
It is Steph Zabarado.
Have you been kicked out of the country yet?
No, I'm still here.
Hello, ladies.
Hello.
Also with us, the author of Morning Remembrance, funny obituaries of real dead people.
It's Jim Earl.
Hey, Jim.
Former writer for the daily show.
Hey, thanks, Jimmy.
I'm directionless and rudderless.
And I look to your personality for guidance.
Oh, good luck with that, huh?
Good luck with that.
Here I am sitting in my garage.
All right.
Next to him is hilarious comedian Hank Thompson is back with us.
Hey, Hank, how are you?
Hello there.
Hashtag I'm with herpes.
All right, let's get to the jokes before we get to the jokes.
Hey, did you hear Microsoft purchase LinkedIn?
Happened about a week ago.
Happened about a week ago, but nobody knew about it because the announcement was made on LinkedIn.
I don't know if you heard about Trump.
He's got caught ripping off.
Anyway, only Trump has the ability to unite working class people of all stripes and stiff every one of them on money that he owes them.
That's our frats, our friend Donny Trump.
We're calling him DT.
Got the DT.
You know, Romney is upset with Donald Trump's racism.
Mitt Romney.
Mitt Romney.
Mitt Romney objects to Trump's trickle-down racism, but not the blatant in-your-face racism of Trump's birtherism when he endorsed Mitt Romney in 2012.
Remember that?
Oh, touche.
Remember that he didn't have any problem with Trump's racism back then.
But now all of a sudden it's a little unpalatable.
That's funny.
He was networking.
You know it must have This is the beauty of Trump, right?
This is the beauty of Trump when he exposes these hypocrites, right?
This is because it must have been inspiring for the Faith and Freedom Coalition audience to hear religious views of a serial adulterer and wife raper, Donald Trump.
There you go.
Hope he sues me.
Hope he sues me for one of these jokes.
He believes in traditional divorce.
He does believe in traditional divorce.
I got to put these in my act.
Hey, of course, Republicans, by the way, I've been having these Twitter battles with people over the Republic who hates gays more.
They want to feel, they want to puff their chests up because they found another religion that might hate gays more.
Yeah, so of course, Republicans don't want gay people slaughtered, but they do want them healthy and alive when denying them their basic rights.
That joke cuts right to the core.
That joke, huh?
The Orlando shooter pledged allegiance to ISIS, as did the politicians who blocked the legislation that would have prevented him from buying an assault weapon.
That's a nice twisty joke.
That comes back around and punched you in the back of the ear and even see it coming.
He's got a message.
He's got a message, that joke.
I'll repeat it.
No, I won't.
Obama is not coming for your guns.
He's not coming for your guns, but it would be so fucking awesome if he was.
You know, I don't want to take away your guns.
I just want to cut off your hands.
That seems a little extreme, Jim.
But hey, if it stops gun violence, I think we got to start thinking outside the box.
Every morning I pledge allegiance to ice cream.
That's right.
Ooh.
See what I did there?
Yeah, you did.
You took a switcheroo.
Do you know what was Trump's birthday the other day?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was Trump's birthday.
So he treated himself to a nice, quiet, romantic evening with his daughter.
Isn't that nice?
Love blossoms.
Don't freak out.
I say forget mosques, right?
Because if we're going to crack down on buildings where plots against America are being hatched, I say we focus on Trump Towers.
Am I right?
Come on.
See, I've been doing a lot of these switcheroos.
What's coming up on today's show?
We're going to take a look at how is the mainstream media still, still, still finding new ways to dismiss Bernie Sanders and his 46% of the pledge delegates.
Also, hey, is it there a double standard when it's a white murderer and a Muslim murderer?
The answer just may surprise you.
Or will it?
What else is going on?
Hey, Gucifer 2.0.
Huh?
Hacked into got some information on the DNC, Hillary Clinton.
We're going to take a look at that.
Also, a reporter went to a Trump rally and live tweeted it.
He had the same reaction I had when I went.
We're going to talk about that.
Plus, John McCain reveals himself to be not only the horrible person who chose Sarah Palin and inflicted her on us, but he turns out he's even worse.
How?
The answer just may surprise you.
I bet it won't.
Plus, we're going to talk about, I don't know, we got phone calls today from who was it?
Chris Christie.
Chris Christie calls in today.
Plus, a lot lot more.
That's today on the Jimmy Dore Show.
So we all saw what happened in Orlando, the biggest mass shooting in American history.
And it will only be outdone by the next bigger mass shooting in American history because it's coming, right?
That doesn't go away.
So I was watching Chris Cuomo interview Rudy Giuliani.
And let's just get right to it, because what happens here is kind of a it's been happening a lot.
And it seems to be.
Here we go.
I'll just we'll do it and we'll talk.
The fact is that the weaker you are, the harder they hit you.
And there is a connection between radical Muslim and attacking gays and lesbians.
Radical Muslims believe that the death penalty is the correct punishment for gays and lesbians.
And when Anderson before, who I thought had some very beautiful remarks, talked about people, you know, having come.
People argue over gay marriage in the United States and things like that.
Well, look, we argue about gay marriage in the United States.
There's nobody in the United States who argues for death for homosexuals in the United States.
So this is a very, very different culture.
No, it's true.
Not true.
First of all, not true.
A lot of people arguing for that.
Go ahead.
And we're at a very different level of civilization.
And somebody should point out the superiority of our civilization is.
to the barbarians that we're facing oh absolutely and that's why we have these discussions you know me well enough to know that mr. mayor no i have no argument with you so he has no argument with the mayor on what rudolph giuliani just said that uh they're barbarian culture so that just kind of stuck with me when i when i heard him say that and then chris cuomo says back oh you have no arguing with me on that barbarian culture you
So any culture that suppresses people's rights is horrible.
Yes.
The fundamentalist, fundamentalist conservative religious people in any religion are horrible.
Now, he's making the case that not only is the Islam as a religion not come into modernity with their religion, but he's saying that their culture is barbarian.
Their culture is barbarian.
So, by the way, they're talking about a mass murder of 50 people, which was enabled because of the corruption inside of our culture.
The barbarianism in our own culture.
What is that culture?
The guy was allowed to buy a gun.
We can't even get terrorists, people on the terrorist watch list barred from buying guns.
And you know why?
Because money.
Money.
They slaughtered 20 kindergartners.
And you know what we did about it?
Nothing.
And you know why?
Because we have a superior culture.
They just slaughtered 50 gay people.
You know what we're going to do about it?
Nothing.
You know why?
Because we're a superior culture.
They just poisoned with lead in the drinking water for over a year.
And everyone knew about it.
The governor did it in Michigan for money and political power.
And nobody's in jail.
Poisoning kids, putting lead.
Did the Taliban do that?
Did the Muslims do that?
Or was it our nice superior culture government?
Poisoning a whole city with lead in their drinking water, poisoning children.
I don't know.
It's absolutely nobody in jail, by the way.
Which culture invaded another country, another Muslim country, on a lie to steal their oil?
And slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people.
And then ordered torture to cover it up.
And then threw in jail the people who revealed the crimes they were committing and prosecuting that illegal war.
WikiLeaks.
sanj private manning our superior culture did that our superior culture did that and get this according to a pew research center this is from the pew research center u.s muslims are ready for this they are more likely to support same-sex marriage than are u.s evangelical christians did
you know that yes 42 percent of u.s muslims support same-sex marriage you know what the percent of u.s evangelicals 28 percent that's 42 percent of muslims supporting same-sex marriage 28 of u.s evangelicals uh black protestants 40 support it mormons only support same-sex marriage 26 jehovah witnesses
14 percent and in fact according to the pew research center u.s muslims are roughly just as likely to support same-sex marriage as christians roughly 44 percent isn't that something and this is from an article in the intercept that reminds us that uh both china and
russia are overwhelmingly non-religious and also vehemently anti-gay isn't that something uh catholic officials in cameroon catholic uh church officials continue to spew the most vile and inflammatory anti-gay rhetoric uh This is,
according to The Intercept, a prominent evangelical, multi-millionaire Brazilian pastor and congressman with a history of vile anti-gay rhetoric, Marco Feliciano, yesterday attacked the LGBT BT community for, quote, using the Orlando massacre for self-promotion.
And instead, said that it was the support for Palestinians was to blame for the massacre.
And, you know, we haven't covered it on the show, but it's been reported widely, or not wide enough, I guess, that there's a bunch of Christians in the United States that go to other countries and get them to pass laws to repress gay people in Africa,
in Christian Africa, like we're in, like in Uganda, where they tried to implement the death penalty for homosexuals.
So it's, you know, okay.
By the way, that law was passed criminalizing homosexuality and has led to a severe increase in violent attacks against LGBTs.
So I just wanted to remind people of that stuff.
That's all.
So is are there, is it horrible when Muslim culture kills gays and da-da-da?
Yes.
That is horrible.
But don't break your arm, patting yourself on the back there, Rudy Giuliani, Rudy Giuliani, who's willing to exploit the biggest terrorist attack in history for his own political gain at the drop of a hat.
A hat didn't even need a tip of a hat.
Didn't even drop your hat.
He's going to put a noun, a verb, and 9-11 in a sentence for political gain.
He's also a race baiter.
Mr. Superior Culture.
I don't know.
Who knows how many women he's cheated on within the government in the Mr. Family Values, this guy?
Rudolph Giuliani.
So that's the, so the whole barbarian culture.
Hey, how many, how many barbarian?
This whole thing of we're somehow we're this, you know what's better?
Secularism is better than religious cultures.
Secularism, not Christianity, because when the Christians were in control, we had the Crusades, we had the Inquisition.
We had to wrestle the culture away from those people.
Half of our country used their Christianity so they could make other people literal slaves.
And we had to fight a war over it and kill hundreds of thousands of people over their Christian slaveddom.
It was a generation ago we let black people vote in this country.
We have to fight against that stuff.
Anyway, so that's kind of so that whole thing of Thurbar, oh, they're bar we're in by sure, we fight over gay marriage.
So what he's literally saying is, sure, we try to take away their rights.
Sure, we try to demean them at every turn.
We demonize them.
We scapegoat them.
We smear them.
And then we try to deny them the rights.
And we try to treat them as second-class citizens.
But, you know, we don't throw them off of buildings.
Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back there.
*music*
And now it's time for another reading from the book Morning Remembrance: Fake Obituaries of Real Dead People by Jim Earle.
Lillian Bounds Disney, wife of Walt Disney.
Lillian Bounds Disney, wife of cartoon mogul Walt Disney, but died peacefully in her sleep Tuesday, accompanied by funny sound effects and exploding asterisks above her head.
For 41 years, Lillian Disney worked patiently in the background, raising their family and serving as a sounding board for her husband's scary reactionary beliefs and weird hand-washing rituals.
She first met Walt in 1917 and was instantly charmed by his brash dreams of achieving fame and fortune by stealing the ideas of others.
Lillian was credited with advising Walt to rename the now legendary mouse character Mickey instead of the original Mortimer.
She also persuaded Walt to abandon another new character entirely, the ill-conceived Heinrich the storm-trooping hedgehog.
For years after her husband's death, the devoted Lillian said she could always feel the reassuring presence of Walt watching over her from within a liquid nitrogen tank suspended above her bed.
I know.
Don't email that he wasn't really frozen.
It's just a joke.
The deceased requested her body be taller than the bottom of the sign in order to ride on the 20,000 leagues under the cemetery ride.
And that was a reading from the book Morning Remembrance, Fake Obituaries of Real Dead People by Jim Earl, available at jimerl.com.

It's not a little deal.
It is a big deal, and it is a big help to the show.
Now let's get back to the second half.
Welcome back to the second half of the Jimmy Door show.
We got a lot coming up in the second half.
We got a phone call from Chris Christie.
He's coming up.
And we're going to talk right now.
We're going to talk about how they're finding new ways to dismiss Bernie Sanders and contradict themselves all at the same time.
Let's get back to the studio where I'm joined by the miserable liberal, our resident Latina, Steph Samurano, former writer for The Daily Show and Emmy Award-winning comedian.
It is Jim Earle, also with his comedian Hank Thompson.
Let's get back to the studio.
Let's get back to the studio.
So Bernie Sanders is not conceding, which is fantastic.
He shouldn't because that means like you're conceding on your ideas, which he's not.
He's not conceding on his ideas.
Hillary Clinton and he himself are not close enough together.
She hasn't moved far enough left yet.
Although I did see Joy Reid on NLSNBC yesterday saying that Hillary Clinton has been dragged to the left by Bernie Sanders.
So what do you know?
Pie in the sky guy is actually having an effect, according to Joy Reed.
Anyway, so Bernie Sanders gave a speech where he outlined some of his demands that he wants from the DNC.
And so let's listen to some of them here, shall we?
I do believe that we have to replace the current Democratic National Committee leadership.
We need a person at the leadership of the DNC who is vigorously supporting and outworking to bring people into the political process.
We need real electoral reform within the Democratic Party.
And that means, among many, many other things, open primaries.
We need same-day registration.
And that means that anybody in this country can walk in and get registered to vote on the day of a primary or a caucus.
We also need, obviously, to get rid of superdelegates.
The idea that we had, in this case, 400 superdelegates pledged to a candidate some eight months or more before the first ballot was cast is to my mind absurd.
I'm joined now by Joy Reid, the host of Emma.
Okay.
And might I add preferred voting?
Where you have two choices, your first choice and then your second choice.
If your first choice doesn't get enough votes, your vote goes to your second choice.
Also known as instant runoff, instant runoff voting.
As Jill Stein of the Green Party has advocated for years.
No, a lot of people are making a stink that he didn't mention caucuses because he does well in caucuses.
And they're saying that that's a little hypocritical on Bernie's part that he didn't call for the end of caucuses.
And I'm not a caucus fan myself because I saw how caucuses are run, even though they say Bernie Sanders does well in caucuses.
They're set up to really favor the establishment.
Because whoever's running the caucus, which is usually the establishment, the party insiders run it.
And I saw it be manipulated for their favor, right?
So it just, but Bernie likes caucuses because he says that it's good to have people come out and debate and try to convince each other and all that.
I think caucuses are a horrible idea.
So this is one spot where I'll disagree with Bernie.
I think caucuses are a horrible idea for many reasons.
The biggest reason is working people don't have time to go spend three, four, five hours talking with people they don't know in a gym somewhere about they need to vote, right?
You know where they can talk to people at a bar.
They can talk to them at Thanksgiving.
They can talk to people at Sunday church or after wherever at a Blittle League game.
They don't have time because when I was in Des Moines during the caucus, I was eating dinner at a restaurant and I asked the waitress, are you caucusing?
She said, no, I have to work.
And I realize everyone in that place had to work.
So I'm all for getting, and they can't caucus because it takes hours to caucus.
So I'm all against caucuses, right?
I'm watching Chuck Todd.
So now let's keep this in mind.
The slam on Bernie has been all through this process.
The mainstream establishment slam on Bernie is that he thinks too big.
Is that he's pie in the sky, fairy dust unicorns, and that Hillary Clinton is a pragmat.
She'll get it done.
She's not a dream or some fairy tale guy like Bernie Sanders.
She's more pragmatic.
She's incremental.
You take little itty-bitty baby steps.
That's the whole thing about Hillary Clinton as opposed to him.
That's why they were dismissing him as some kind of, even though he's 74 years old, he's been in government for his whole life.
He somehow doesn't know how it works and he's some kind of flighty child.
He's 74.
So here's what Chuck Todd had to say about that.
Here's what he says.
Here's what I'm trying to figure out.
Sanders has his list of demands.
They include new leadership, no superdelegates.
It all seems small.
After for 10 months demeaning him and dismissing him at every turn about how he's fairy dusty and unicorny and thinks too bad.
He'll never get it done.
And there's going to be still going to be Republicans when he gets there.
He wants to know what he's going to get stuff done.
Why is it he thinks smaller?
So here he comes out with a list of demands, which, by the way, aren't small.
He wants to change the way the Democrats nominate their candidate.
That's a big deal.
And he wants to get rid of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who's in charge of the DNC.
Also a very big deal.
You know, watching Amazon NBC News is like being in a bad relationship.
You know, you can never do anything right.
Yeah, you're thinking too big.
Oh, you're too small.
I think it's too big.
How about I just do these little changes?
You're thinking too small.
What the frick?
What are you, Goldilocks?
This is, that's literally what he just said.
I mean, that was kind of, that was kind of mind-blowing.
So he's asking the question.
I'll hear he'll ask it again, and he gets an answer.
He gets an answer.
Let's listen to what the answer is that he gets.
It all seems small.
It is a little bit small bore.
And I think at this point, also, he doesn't have a lot of leverage anymore now that the primaries are over.
But I mean, I think, you know, he's already got his people on the platform communities.
So to the extent that it's about getting policy changes in terms of the Democrat, moving the Democratic Party to the left.
That's going to come about through the platform committee and through his conversations with Hillary Clinton.
The procedural reforms, they may seem relatively small more, but these are the kind of things that he got very worked up about during the primary.
There's no doubt, but Paul Kane, he hasn't been a member of the Democratic Party for very long to suddenly say, change all your ways, you club that I just joined.
No, tell me if I'm out of my mind, but did Chuck Todd just do say two completely different things?
Did he just say, oh, man, those things he wants small, and then he turns to his next guest and goes, this guy wants to change the whole way they do everything.
Did he not just do that?
Yes, he did.
He did that.
Yes, he did.
He did.
So she gives him an honest answer about, no, this is actually what he's been talking about all along, and he's got a real chance to make these things happen.
And this is a big deal.
And he's already got people on the rules committee.
This guy's making that.
And Chuck Todd.
What the heck?
He wants to change everything?
The guy's thinking too small.
Well, he's actually getting it done.
Why does he want to change everything?
Who is he?
Yeah, he went from he has no ambition all the way up to, how dare dare you?
How dare you?
That's exactly what happened.
Yeah.
That is exactly what happened.
He went from, he went from this guy, what it's so bad with, why doesn't he think big?
That is certainly hubris.
Who to say, hey, Mr. Faye, must be nice, Mr. Fancy Pants.
Mr. Want to change everything.
So you just saw it in real time.
You saw it within, I don't know, what was that, 30 seconds?
Chuck Todd just said two completely opposite things, completely.
Any way to dismiss Bernie Sanders?
It's just, I don't think, I don't even think he's doing it consciously at this point.
I just think that's how the gears work.
If there's a way to dismiss this guy who's going to upset the money cart inside news and politics, whatever it is, no matter what, it's again, it's like watching people try to take a dump on Bernie Sanders is like listening to Bush supporters defend George Bush after Katrina.
That's what this is like.
It's like whatever they can, whatever, doesn't matter if it makes sense.
Doesn't matter if it contradicts what they said five seconds ago.
That's what Chuck John just did.
Doesn't matter that what he just said freaking 10 seconds ago, he completely contradicted.
Doesn't matter.
And by the way, nobody calls him on it.
Guess who did call him out at the Jimmy Door show?
So now, let's go back.
Let's see what else.
I don't know what this clip is.
You know, Susan, it seems that one of the things that Bernie doesn't have going for him is there are a lot of congressional Democrats up there that are upset that Clinton's the nominee.
Like the way he doesn't have any allies going, Bernie, let's go.
Let's do more.
So there's another way to dismiss Bernie.
Bernie doesn't have any friends in Congress.
That's another one of those things.
He doesn't have any friends in Congress.
Yeah, all he has is millions and millions of voters, 46% of the pledged delegates in the Democratic Party.
That's all he's got.
That's all he has.
That's all he can do is get 30 to 60,000 people to show up to hear him talk about policy at a clip.
That's all.
That's all he has.
And you know why he doesn't have those people in Congress screaming for him?
It's because he doesn't play the money game, right?
And because they're all part of the establishment.
You saw them all knuckle under.
They're all afraid of Hillary Clinton, the Clinton machine, which is why nobody else would get in the race, which is why Bernie Sanders got in the race.
You think he wanted to do this?
You think he wanted to travel around the country doing three hour-long speeches every goddamn day?
You know what that takes out of you?
He's 74.
It exhausted me to go to one of those things a day.
It exhausted us.
So, yeah, that's why he doesn't have another BS way to try to find a way to dismiss Bernie Sanders.
Doesn't have a lot of people in Congress.
He's screaming if he doesn't have friends in Congress.
Everybody respects the guy.
Nobody can speak up on his behalf because it'll cost them inside the Democratic machine.
That's why.
That's why.
That's why when Tulsi Gabber did it, it was a big deal because everybody knew what she was risking.
She left the DNC to stand up for a true liberal inside the Democratic Party.
So now let's go back to Chris Matthews.
Chris Matthews is going to play some of this game too about Chuck that Chuck Todd just played.
Chris Matthews, let's see what he has to say about Bernie Sanders' demands.
Now, let's remember Bernie Sanders' demands.
He wants open primaries.
He wants the new change at the DNC.
He wants to get rid of super delegates.
Same-day voter registry.
He wants to make it easier for people to become Democrats and participate in their elections.
So let's hear what here's what Chris Matthews had to say he had on Ed Rundell.
Let's see.
So the Democratic Party can only recommend, and I think most of the reforms he's talking about are correct, are right.
And I think we should get.
So there you go.
Super insider, super mainstream establishment guy, Ed Randell, says, I think most of the things he's saying are true.
Which, you know what?
Is what every person in the Democratic Party either believes outwardly or inwardly.
Everybody knows what Bernie Sanders is saying is true.
Everything he says is what you believe if you're even a little bit liberal.
So that's the thing that's been driving us crazy is to watch supposed Democrats scream and yell at a guy who couldn't be more of a liberal for 12 months.
So that's the problem.
That's what's been driving us crazy.
It's like, no, the guy stands up for what you're all supposed to be standing for.
So Ed Rundell, and here's Ed Randell.
He's like, hey, everything he said makes sense.
Let's see how Chris Matthews handles it.
Find him.
Before I get to Joy, I want to ask you one last one.
This is the one about open primaries.
Now, they benefited Bernie, of course, and people like what benefits them because young people who hadn't registered as Democrats, who are independents, they can vote in open primaries.
Do you think Pennsylvania, for example, is pretty old state in terms of politics?
Do you think that fits to let people who are not even Democrats pick not Democratic nominees?
Does that work culturally?
Culturally.
Did you hear what he just said?
He just said, no, this thing about letting young people who haven't registered as Democrat come in and actually participate in our party because they're excited about one of our candidates.
Does that work culturally?
Culturally?
What?
Does that work?
You mean letting other Americans who get excited about a candidate running for your party's nomination?
You mean letting other Americans come in and participate in your party?
Does that work culturally?
That's the craziest.
Not in a culture of corruption.
I mean, it's like he's embracing the bubble culture.
Yeah.
Culturally, like somehow Americans prepared to tribalism or something.
Somehow regular salt of the earth Pennsylvanians just don't go for those young kids coming in mucking up their primaries.
Oh, the kids today with the hair in the clothes.
Am I right, Ed?
Well, let's see what Ed says back.
Well, I'm in favor of same-day registration.
Bam!
Right in your fucking establishment face, Chris Matthews.
I'm in favor of it.
Oh, you mean you're in favor of more democracy?
You're in favor of making it easier for people to vote in America.
What the fuck is wrong with you, Ed?
This is about consolidating power for the wealthy in 1%, which I happen to be a part of.
And I'm not going to bring it back on this stupid show if you keep disagreeing with me like this.
That's what Chris, I'm doing Chris Matthews' inner dialogue.
Same day registration would obviate having to have open primaries because then you just go in and say, I'm registering as a Democrat.
Boom.
And you can change it under that system.
Under that system, could you change from R to D or from independent to D the same day?
Yep.
Well, that obvious it off.
Great.
So that obviously drives Chris Matthews crazy.
You mean you could just come in?
Let's say if you've been a Republican and you want to come vote for this guy, you can just come and vote in America.
You could just vote?
I think his logic, if you can call that, is there's going to be massive, massive deception on the part of Republicans to turn a Democratic primary in favor of a candidate that their Republican candidate would want to run against.
Yes.
And win over.
So what?
So the theory is that if you let independents come vote in your primary, people who haven't been Democrats for a while, what will happen is they'll come in and they can vote for a less of a, the idea is they'll vote for a less of a liberal.
They'll vote for more of a centrist.
That's the theory.
But it turns out when it works the other way, when they come in to vote for more of a liberal, it freaks the establishment out.
Yeah.
So that's the idea behind that.
But does that ever really happen?
I mean, I don't think that is the history of that ever.
That's an idea that people cross over to pick the weaker candidate to run against their party.
That's what you're saying.
Right.
Yeah.
So I don't think that that has ever been proven to have happened.
Yeah.
Right.
I don't think people do that.
I don't think people threaten to do it.
Some people do it, but it's like people usually normally, more of the times that I don't know.
I'd have to see some data on this, but my hunch is that people who bother to go vote, when they get there, are going to vote for the person they like.
Yeah.
I think people to bother to vote, you're not going to bother to vote to go vote for some guy who you think might be the second best of the other party that you might want to have your guy vote.
It just doesn't, I just don't think that happens.
So that was nice to see.
That was nice to see Ed Randell.
Boom, right in the kitchen.
So it's a great way.
Establishment media finding any way they can dismiss Bernie Sanders.
And look, establishment MFers pushing right back on them.
you So I have on the phone right now from RT.
It's Lee Camp.
You've been doing some great work on the fraud that's been happening in the Democratic primary.
First of all, Lee, how are you?
I'm good, man.
Good work on all you've been doing.
I've been really impressed.
You've been doing the great stuff.
Thank you very much, Lee.
You are correct.
I've been doing some stellar work over here.
So tell, you know what?
People have been getting on me.
People have been telling me all the great work you're doing on this topic.
And they keep telling me, why don't you cover it more?
And my whole thing is it's depressing to me, right?
Because I live through Al Gore.
I live through Al Gore, and the Democrats won't fight.
And if what I keep telling people is as soon as Bernie says something, I'll be on it.
But until he does, I won't say anything.
So what have tell me what you have found?
Okay, if you can briefly say what you found.
Oh, God.
I don't know if I can be brief about it, but, you know, I started, I started getting involved with this when I saw various people talking about it.
And then I looked into it more.
And, you know, I'm trusting academics, certain academics that I feel have done a lot of great research on this.
And that's, you know, the conclusion they're coming to.
And different people have come to, you know, have pointed out different areas of this.
But like Greg Palace, who's done amazing work, you know, New York Times bestseller, he points out how extensive the voter suppression had been.
Richard Charnin, who has two advanced degrees in applied mathematics, points out how far off the exit polls have been in many states.
And Bob Pebbrequez and others have pointed out the election fraud that's gone on in various states.
And I could go into each individual state.
It's like, you know, New York, you have over 100,000 knocked off the rolls in Brooklyn alone.
And by the way, all of those have been reinstated, meaning they were illegitimate and they were knocked off for no reason.
So they've now been reinstated, but that means those were 100,000 people or a lot of them who would have voted for Bernie Sanders just vote for Bernie Sanders that are not now counted.
You know, you have all the chaos going on in California.
And so it's a lot of things.
A Stanford study that I covered on Redact tonight this coming Friday that shows that Hillary does did phenomenally much better in the primaries that there is no proof of a paper trail.
Like you can't prove who voted for who.
She does a lot better.
So the easier places to have fraud, she does better.
And they calculated for other variables and stuff like that.
And that Stanford study shows that shows that Hillary's doing better where fraud is more prevalent.
So it's just one thing after another that's kind of adding up.
So I saw Ari Melber's article today where he tried to debunk everything.
Did you see that?
I haven't seen it, although I think it had someone tweeted it at me and it has something to do with Joshua Holland, who went after me and others in the nation.
And I and Richard Charnin and others debunked most of what Joshua Holland said.
And Joshua Holland's research was really kind of sad.
I mean, I felt like I had a higher standard of the nation because, you know, he tried to say that Edison Research, you know, doesn't think exit polls mean anything and they're all meaningless.
And it was like his research was kind of laughable.
He didn't really, he wasn't even able to spell the man's name correctly who he talked to at Edison Research.
So I know I haven't seen the Ari Melbourne thing, but I dealt with Joshua Holland a couple months back.
So basically what I've noticed is that even here in California, so the polls had them neck and neck and some of them had Bernie up.
And then when and then when the vote happens, it's what she's up 10 points, 12 points.
So that's what we're talking about.
The exit polling is not matching up.
Why is the exit polling seemed to be matching up with the Republicans, but it doesn't seem to be matching up with the Democrats?
Does that make sense?
Yeah, no, it's because there is kind of an establishment election fraud Going on.
And that doesn't mean that Hillary's pulling the levers.
It just means that the establishment is pushing for the establishment candidate.
And in the leaked document that just came out yesterday or whatever, they show that the DMV was already planning for a Hillary Clinton run at the beginning of her running.
Even a month after Bernie had announced, they were still thinking it would be Hillary because that's who the establishment wanted.
So, you know, in California, I don't know whether there was computer election fraud going on, but what went on in California, which Greg Palace reported on, is this kind of excess, an incredibly large amount of provisional ballots given out for anything that was questioned at all.
You know, you aren't, your party affiliation is not correct.
You're an NPV voter.
Here's your provisional ballot.
But provisional ballots, in some counties, they're counted well.
In most counties, they're not counted well.
So they're placebo ballots.
They're basically meant to get you to go away and go home.
And the biggest thing is that NPP voters who showed up in California and said, I want to vote, were told they couldn't vote for president unless they said the secret code phrase, I want a crossover ballot.
That literally you had to say those words or you were given a fake ballot, a provisional ballot, to vote.
So I think that's why you see people, tons of people coming out for Bernie Sanders, and then he gets crushed in California.
Although California is still voting, so we won't know the results of California for another month.
Yeah, they're still counting those votes.
So it didn't make sense to me.
The California thing is what really got me going crazy because of the pre-polling and they decided to not do exit polling in California, correct?
Is that correct, Lee?
Yeah, the only place doing exit polling, which was hired by the mainstream media, is Edison Research.
And they did it through many states.
And then, you know, I and several others started pointing out the difference in the active polls.
The guy who did the mathematics behind it, which is not my forte, is Richard Charnon and others.
And we were pointing out the difference in the exit poll between that and the electronic machines, the voting machines.
And then all of a sudden, the mainstream media basically stopped funding out of the research.
They said, we don't need you for California and New Jersey and the others.
And so there were no exit polls done other than citizen exit polls for California and New Jersey.
So that's it feels a lot like the mainstream media realized there was a problem with the exit polls, so they stopped funding.
That's certainly what it looked like to me.
And that, that, you know, and here's my thing.
So I can immediately get pissed off about this immediately, right?
And I can get upset about it.
It'll keep me up at night.
And I'll be, I'll have a heavy hat, you know.
Here's the thing.
I feel like, what do you think is going to happen here, Lee, because what do you think the end game is?
Because I think if Bernie Sanders doesn't scream about this, it's not really going to get pushed forward or someone in power.
So we need like an attorney general or a governor or a mayor.
You need somebody who has power or an election official or somebody that has power to do something.
And this doesn't seem, and it's easy to marginalize people like me and you when we bring these points up.
As, you know, half the Democratic Party is going to marginalize us, right?
So where do you think this is?
Do you think anything will come from this?
I mean, to me, it really feels like people are waking up.
They're waking up to both the manipulation of the mainstream media, not talking about Bernie Sanders, and they're waking up to the fact that the elections are not being calculated correctly, whether it's suppression or actual, you know, computer voter fraud and election fraud.
But I do agree that it'd be great if Bernie says something.
I think that would really light a fire under this thing.
But I don't think that that needs to be the only way this becomes a huge issue because until we deal with this, we are never going to have a fair election.
You know, if we let this go, and even if Hillary wins, we're still dealing with a system that is phenomenally corrupt and we're not getting our real election.
And I don't give a crap who wins.
It's like we should want the legitimate results.
We should want what people voted for to be clear.
And so it's like whether Bernie says something, and I don't know that he will, because I think that he is willing to start a revolution, but he's not willing to set fire to the Democratic Party.
I think that whether he says something or not, people have to stand up about this.
And it doesn't matter whether it, you know, if it hurts Hillary, I'm sorry.
Then deal with it, people, but it might hurt Hillary, but whatever.
We need legitimate elections.
That's what this country's based on.
Hello.
Hey, Jimmy.
