Episode Netanyahu LOSES Election… But Still In Power?
In this segment Jimmy examines Israel's election results, arguing that Benjamin Netanyahu may remain in power despite his political bloc falling short of the 61 seats needed for a Knesset majority. He explains how the opposition's difficulty working with Arab parties, who hold potentially decisive seats, could give Netanyahu another opportunity to form a government or prolong his tenure as caretaker prime minister.
As other political commentators have noted, tribal loyalties, culture-war divisions, religious beliefs, and attacks on opponents have traditionally helped Netanyahu retain support within his coalition. Meanwhile, Jeffrey Sachs argues that replacing Netanyahu and his far-right allies could create an opportunity for a different political direction. The segment also criticizes Donald Trump's support for Netanyahu and explores possible coalition arrangements, including cooperation with Arab parties or a unity government without Netanyahu, amid concerns about racism, regional conflict, and the future of U.S.–Israeli relations.
Plus segments on Shawn Ryan's inability to answer basic questions about claims he censored a recent guest, the real reason why Europe is erupting in protest and a CNN panel's meltdown over a recent anti-Israel campaign ad.
Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Glenn Diesen and Stef Zamorano!
