In this episode Jimmy seeks to dispel misinformation about he SNAP program, which provides food assistance to low income Americans. He points out that nearly one-third of Americans are low-income and two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled individuals.
He also points out that the U.S., despite being the richest nation in history, prioritizes foreign spending—such as aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Argentina—over feeding its own citizens. This, he says, is evidence of a declining empire manipulated by billionaire and corporate interests that have captured both major political parties. He concludes that the growing wealth gap, rising inflation, and political distraction over culture wars reflect a system that serves elites while ordinary Americans struggle to survive.
Plus segments on the surprising outcome of Trump's tariff trade war with China and FBI head Kash Patel's reaction to being caught using a government jet to attend a pro wrestling event with his girlfriend.
Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. Plus a phone call from George Clooney!
