In this segment Jimmy argues that the U.S. political system is an oligarchy controlled by billionaires and corporate interests, where elections are rigged and the government works against the working class. He calls for a nonviolent worker-led revolution—suggesting that railroad, port, and truck workers shut down the economy and force demands like public financing of elections and a constitutional amendment to ban corporate money in politics.

He points to economic data (70% living paycheck to paycheck, 100 million with medical debt) as evidence that voting cannot fix the system, and criticizes Marjorie Taylor Greene's proposed third party for potentially allowing billionaire influence. He contrasts the U.S. with China, where the government sits "above capital" and provides universal healthcare and high homeownership, arguing that American workers must unite across political divides to overthrow the system.

Plus segments on the ADL admitting to regular clandestine meetings of powerful Jewish groups and an interview with former Congressman Curt Weldon about his investigation into what really brought down the twin towers on 9/11.
