The Jimmy Dore Show

Is JD Vance A Real Populist Or Captured By Donors?

61 min • 24 juli 2024

Trump Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance has been promoted as a populist with working class Appalachia roots who will promote the interests of everyday Americans over the rich and powerful. Yet at the same time he is almost entirely a product of multibillioniare Peter Thiel, who helped shepherd Vance’s career and also launched the massive surveillance company Pallantir. So who is the real J.D. Vance?

Jimmy speaks with investigative journalist Whitney Webb about Vance’s history and how no one rises to his level of prominence without serving the corporate machine.

Plus segments on Democrats’ cries of “racism!” in opposition to a GOP-led Voter ID law and the sad state of the left in the United States.

Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Craig “Pasta” Jardula and Nick Cruse!
