“I oppose Trump, but I will not let him steal my critical thinking skills.”

So jokes LA-based comedian Jimmy Dore at minute 18 of yet another irreverent and insightful take down of US politics – this time re: the “Nunes Memo” and secretive FISA “courts.” Other targets include the US Empire, corporate media, the “Deep State,” our Corporate Cloud Lords’  demonetization of “inappropriate” YouTube videos, and other bipartisan imperial nonsense.

Kudos to Jimmy, Ron, and Steph for keeping it real in the City Of Angels.

We’ll keep supporting them through Patreon, and so can you.

Free media, free Vermont, and long live the UNtied States!
