Newly minted House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has begun flexing his muscle, making good on his promise to kick prominent Democrats Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell off of the House Intelligence Committee. And for good measure McCarthy also took the opportunity to smack down a PBS reporter who asked why the two Democrats were being excised from this committee while noted fabulist Republican George Santos was being placed on other committees. Jimmy and Pushback host Aaron Maté discuss the more than legitimate reasons why Schiff has no business anywhere near the Intelligence Committee.

Plus segments on a psychopath former Pentagon official in the Obama administration calling for "many more body bags" to bring down Putin and "Dilbert" creator Scott Adams' less-than-contrite apology for being wrong about the COVID vaccine. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae! And phone calls from Vince Vaughn and the duo of Joe Biden and Volodymyr Zelensky!
