Jimmy Dore

Jimmy Dore. James Patrick Anthony Dore. He has many names… but really he remains: Citizen Jimmy. Fighting for America. Fighting for Free Speech. Fighting for Press Freedom. Fighting for Peace and not War.

Wikipedia describes him as “…an American stand-up comedian, political commentator, podcaster, YouTube personality, and conspiracy theorist. He is the host of The Jimmy Dore Show, a comedic political talk show on YouTube.” Conspiracy Theorist? Really? Jimmy thinks that’s funny, actually because whatever “It” is, it’s not a conspiracy… when it’s true.

Jimmy had long been dubbed as “The Comedy Darling of America’s Progressive Left”, because he had always stood up for the average Joe, advocating on his show for health care for all, better wages for workers, and other common sense causes that everyone can get behind – even railing against some public sector unions whose perpetual greed surpasses any good they might do for their members. But then, something happened. All of sudden, he wasn’t the darling anymore. What happened? Why did he fall out of favor with those who had supported him, and his political comedy and analysis, for so many years? Could it be for simply asking questions about what has happened since 2020?

Jimmy explains it like this:

Comedy Club: “Jimmy, you can do your show, but everyone in the audience has to be in a mask”.

Jimmy D: “Why do they have to be in a mask? The public health officials say they don’t”.

Comedy Club: “We just canceled your show”.

Undaunted, Jimmy continues to tour, still doing stand up comedy at different clubs, as well as bringing the live version of The Jimmy Dore Show to a variety of venues. And now, he is available for events and conferences as a keynote speaker, where his talk will be laced with his usual political observations, wit, anger/rage/rant/smiles, cultural commentary, and bold insights into what is happening in Dystopia America today. He also loves the moderated Q&A “Fireside Chat” format, which can get as raucous and fun as any keynote. He loves taking questions from the audience and engaging with his fans.

Finally, Jimmy is available to MC your event, too. (How much fun would that be?).

Speech Topic

What Happened To America?

It seems whenever you log in to social media in America, it seems there’s always a video of a fight breaking out at a fast food restaurant, an antifa riot, a January 6th, an assault on a subway or a drag queen story time at an elementary school; But these are only symptoms of the inane madness that emanates not only from within, but from above. In America today, leaders from governments, corporations and associations and NGO’s are treating biological men competing in women’s sports as somehow brave and heroic figures; in America today, a trans swimmer was a nominee as The NCAA WOMAN of the Year. In America today, we are giving young kids puberty blockers instead of being allowed to grow up and figure out if they have what was once a psychological condition called “Gender Dysphoria”. Now we call it “questioning” and are normalizing psychopathy.

In America today, you can’t question the “Public Health” narrative; but if you do, and you are, say, for example, a well known comedian with his own show on youtube, with a massive following, with the initials JD, you might not be able to work at the places you used to work before – because they cancelled you. For asking questions. About masks.

There is perhaps no better cultural and political commentator on What Happened To America than Jimmy Dore… (maybe because it happened to him?) In this talk laced with his sardonic wit, candor, fiery delivery, and, his sense of fun and humor, Jimmy lays bare the barren cultural wasteland that America has become, lays bare the blatant hypocrisy put forth by our leaders and media. All the while, your audiences will be nodding, grinning, laughing and crying at the same time asking… What Happened To America?
