Episode 741: Trump Lawyers Unconventional Defense; RFK Jr's Effect on Trump and Biden
April 26, 2024 14:20 - 31 minutes - 10.9 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump's lawyers have so far done a horrible job of convincing the jury that he didn't do anything wrong. In their opening statements this week, the lawyers claimed that Trump is "innocent," and then proceeded to claim that even if he did it, it still isn't a crime. His lawyers appear to be less focused on proving his innocence than they are on convincing the jury that the crimes aren't actually illegal. That's never a winning strategy in court. Presidentia...
Episode 740: How a Felony Conviction Could Open Up More Problems for Trump; Huckabee Embezzlement Claim
April 18, 2024 17:00 - 35 minutes - 12.2 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Now that Donald Trump's first criminal trial has officially begun, questions are swirling all over the media about what could happen if he gets a felony conviction. The odds of Trump losing this trial are great, but there is still a possibility the charges could be reduced in a way that avoids felony convictions. But if that doesn't happen, it opens up a whole new world of legal problems for the United States. Even before jury selection began on Monday, Donald Tr...
Episode 739: What is Trump Promising to Big Donors? Lindsey Graham in the MAGA Crosshairs
April 11, 2024 16:10 - 29 minutes - 10.3 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! At his fundraiser this past weekend, Donald Trump promised the crowd of wealthy supporters that he would fight to keep their taxes low if he gets back into office. This was part of his sales pitch to ensure that they give him money for his campaign. The wealthy class doesn't care about his coup attempt or his criminal charges or the threat he poses to the country - all they care about is saving a few million dollars a year on their taxes. The company that is back...
Episode 738: Trump's Billion Dollar Week; Giuliani's Podcast Studio in Jeopardy?
April 05, 2024 20:38 - 54 minutes - 18.6 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! According to recent financial filings, Donald Trump's Truth Social - which was just merged with Digital World Acquisition when they acquired the Trump Media and Technology Group - lost WAY more money last year than previously thought. Previous estimates assumed the company lost about $30 million, but the real amount was actually a loss of more than $50 million last year. So how can a completely worthless company that is hemorrhaging money be worth $8 billion in th...
Episode 737: Trump and Our Two-Tiered Justice System
March 28, 2024 16:16 - 29 minutes - 17 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! As expected, Donald Trump manages to escape justice, yet again. The appeals court decided at the last minute on Monday to not only reduce his bond from $464 million to $175 million, but they also gave him an extra 10 days to pay it. There was no reason at all for the extension or the reduction, but this is the kind of thing that always happens with Donald Trump. While speaking to reporters on Monday, Donald Trump suggested that being a convicted felon might actua...
Episode 736: Cash Seems to Be Hard to Come By for Trump; Will Pence Bend the Knee; Update on Document Case
March 21, 2024 20:59 - 36 minutes - 12.5 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump's lawyers were finally forced to admit in a court filing on Monday that he does not have the cash available to pay the $464 million bond for the fraud judgement against him in order to appeal the verdict. The lawyers are asking for the judge to simply postpone the posting of the bond until after the appeal, but that's not how things work. Due to the fact that he was rejected by at least 30 underwriters, it is apparent that Trump is a risk for paying a...
Episode 735: (M) The Return of George Santos? Kellyanne the Tik Tok Lobbyist? Trump to Cut Social Security and Medicare?
March 14, 2024 18:00 - 34 minutes - 11.8 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! George Santos isn't worried about the prospect of spending the next few decades in prison, and he's already making plans for the next few years. Santos announced just a few days ago that he is once again running for Congress, this time trying to unseat Republican Represenative Nick LaLota for New York's First Congressional district seat. Santos has more important things to worry about, but he would rather get media attention than fret over his upcoming criminal tr...

Episode 734: SCOTUS Disappoints in Trump Ruling; Ted Cruz in Trouble in Texas; Boebert's Family Drama Continues
March 07, 2024 15:18 - 33 minutes - 19.3 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! The United States Supreme Court handed down their predictable ruling on Monday that allows Donald Trump to stay on the ballot this year. This is what was widely expected, but it certainly flies in the face of the language of the Constitution. However, their unanimous ruling did leave the door open for potential challenges in the future. The latest polling out of the state of Texas has some horrific news for Ted Cruz. The poll shows that Cruz is in a dead heat wit...
Episode 733: RNC Now Under Trump Rule; Haley In or Out? Is Shut Down Inevitable
February 29, 2024 21:21 - 37 minutes - 12.8 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump is getting everything that he wanted from the Republican Party with Ronna McDaniel announcing her retirement on Monday. McDaniel had played coy about media reports saying she was retiring after the South Carolina primary for weeks, but ultimately did exactly what was predicted. Now Trump will have the ability to completely take over the Party, and that could be the beginning of the end of the GOP forever. On Monday, Donald Trump's lawyers filed a not...
Episode 732: Trump Makes Excuses for Gaffes; Nepotism is a Trump Family Affair; Giuliani's Bankruptcy Recap
February 23, 2024 15:17 - 33 minutes - 11.5 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! During a rally last week, Donald Trump attacked the media for reporting on all of his mental gaffes, and then he told the cult-like audience that he's actually doing all of those things (making constant mistakes) on purpose. This man is incapable of telling the truth, and his followers are incapable of believing the truth, so this really is a match made in heaven for Trump. But for those of us in reality, this claim is just another lie that Trump tells to make him...
Episode 731: Trump Keeping RNC Leadership in the Family; NATO Comments Insane; Will SCOTUS Bail Out Donald?
February 15, 2024 18:40 - 37 minutes - 12.9 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! The RNC is about to get a leadership makeover, and somehow it looks like it'll be even worse than the leadership they have today. Donald Trump has put forth a list of people that he wants to run the Party, and he'll almost certainly get his way. One of the people is his daughter-in-law Lara Trump, who Trump has endorsed as being the co-chair of the Party. When this happens, it'll solidify Trump's hold over the entire Party and that could be the beginning of the en...
Episode 730: No Immunity for Trump; Who will be VP for GOP?; Document Case Update
February 09, 2024 15:55 - 37 minutes - 13 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! The DC Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in a unanimous decision on Tuesday that Donald Trump does NOT have immunity from prosecution, and therefore the election subversion case against him can, and will, go to trial. But that doesn't mean that the immunity fight is over. Trump still has the option to appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court, which has already been put into motion. But the Appeals Court's ruling might be written in a way that already bypasses the Supre...
Episode 729:(M) Boebert is Looking at Fifth Place After Switching Districts; Immigration Idiocracy for Trump; OAN and Powell Have Shady Exchange
January 31, 2024 21:08 - 32 minutes - 11.1 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Lauren Boebert has a little over one month before the primary in Colorado for her new district, and things are off to a horrible start for her. A new straw poll taken after the first primary debate last week puts her squarely in fifth place, meaning she's actually doing worse in her new district than she was in her old district. The window of opportunity is closing on Boebert, but it should have closed years ago. Republicans are up in arms - almost quite literall...
Episode 728: Trump's VP Pick Revealed? DeSantis Ends Run; Trump Rants After New Hampshire Victory
January 25, 2024 17:00 - 32 minutes - 11.3 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! The hunt for Donald Trump's running mate is on, and a former aide to the ex-president believes that Trump has already made up his mind. On a recent episode of The View, Alyssa Farah Griffin said that she believes he'll pick Arkansas governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders as his running mate, even as speculation swirls around Elise Stefanik. Huckabee Sanders has proven herself to be a loyal Trump stooge, but she doesn't bring much else to the table. Ron DeSantis announce...
Episode 727: Iowa Results Leave Haley Delusional; DeSantis Fires Back at Right Wing Media
January 18, 2024 20:02 - 33 minutes - 11.4 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Ron DeSantis is no longer the darling of conservative media outlets, and he can't stand it. While speaking with reporters at an event last Friday, DeSantis whined about the fact that Fox News appears to be protecting Trump, and they are running cover for all of the horrible things that he does. Of course, DeSantis isn't actually wrong about his assessment of Fox and the rest of conservative media, but it is only bothering him because he wants that level of adorati...
Episode 726: Direct Ties to Trump for Fake Elector Scheme? Epstein List is Out; Boebert Tries to Win over New Constituents
January 11, 2024 18:43 - 32 minutes - 11.3 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! The chances of Donald Trump being charged for the fake elector scheme in the state of Michigan are increasing, as investigators in the state have now directly tied Trump's campaign to the fake elector plot. In addition to the new links, Michigan prosecutors also have multiple Trump allies cooperating with their investigation, including three of Trump's former legal advisers: Kenneth Chesebro, Boris Epshteyn, and John Eastman. New Epstein documents were unsealed t...

Episode 724: Desantis Campaign on Life Support; Trump Spreading Conspiracies; Vivek Cancels TV Ad Buys
December 28, 2023 16:00 - 36 minutes - 12.5 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump seems to have woken up panicked about being prosecuted on Wednesday morning, so he got on Truth Social and posted a string of conspiracy theories before demanding that he receive legal immunity from prosecution. The Supreme Court is eventually going to take up the issue, but not before the appellate court gives their decision in the coming weeks. Vivek Ramaswamy's presidential campaign has cancelled their TV ad buys and they don't have any ads planne...
Episode 723: It's the Economy Stupid; Trump's Lawyer Seriously Confused; Huckabee Sanders Kicks Kids off of Medicaid
December 21, 2023 15:07 - 33 minutes - 11.5 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! The Biden Campaign is going on the offensive on the economy, but they are doing it in a way that directly calls out Donald Trump. After a stronger-than-expected November jobs report, the Biden campaign touted the numbers and said that they are "cleaning up" the economic mess that they inherited from Trump. This is a strong, and accurate, message that the campaign needs to be hitting on as frequently as possible. During a recent appearance on Fox, Trump lawyer Ali...
Episode 722: Trump Unhinged!; VP Rumors; Giuliani Trial Off to Bad Start
December 14, 2023 18:00 - 44 minutes - 15.2 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump apparently woke up more unhinged than usual on Saturday morning, and he immediately got on Truth Social to let the world know that he is not doing well at all. But it was a post that he didn't write that made everyone scratch their heads. Trump re-posted a message from a conservative lawyer that suggested that President Obama should be indicted for murder (because a court recently ruled against Trump saying that presidents don't have immunity for life...
Episode 721: Trump Has Reasons for Supporting Capitol Rioters; MTG Called Out Over PPP Loan; Trump's L's in Court
December 08, 2023 16:32 - 32 minutes - 11.2 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump is back to pretending that he cares about the Capitol Rioters, and he shared a post from another user on his Truth Social platform that called for the arrests of police officers that violently engaged with his supporters during the riot. The post contained a video clip of officers using batons to strike the people storming the Capitol and made mention of Ashli Babbit being killed by a police officer. There's a very specific reason why Trump is going d...
Episode 720: Gag Order Repealed; Update on Biden's Impeachment; George Santos Drama
December 01, 2023 01:02 - 35 minutes - 12.1 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! According to a court filing last week, Judge Arthur Engoron and his court clerk have received hundreds of threats, and most of them have been deemed "credible" by the threat assessment officials at the court. This information was revealed in a filing that was attempting to state the importance of the gag order against Donald Trump that an appeals court temporarily lifted earlier this month. Trump knows exactly what he is doing, and legal experts say that there's n...
Episode 719: Trump Repeatedly Going After Clerk in Court Case; Santos May Be Out; DeSantis Losing Record
November 22, 2023 14:00This week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump wasted no time after an appeals court judge temporarily lifted the gag order on him from Judge Arthur Engoron. Trump immediately got to work by attacking the very same clerk that got him in trouble in the first place, and this is likely exactly what the court was looking for. Trump was put in front of a trap, and he walked right into it without even thinking about the consequences. The Republican Chair of the House Ethics Committee on Friday introduc...

November 16, 2023 14:00 - 33 minutes - 11.6 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Donald Trump is once again embroiled in a firearm-related scandal. The former president recently auctioning off a customized firearm with "Trump" branding all over it, and the auction at Mar-a-Lago claimed that the weapon belonged to Trump.

In a ruling late Friday afternoon, Judge Aileen Cannon said that she is not going to delay Donal...

Trump ended up admitting that some of the values on his financial statements were, in fact, inflated, which could end up dooming the entire company. We'll bring you the details.

Episode 716: News Dump Mostly Trump
November 02, 2023 17:19 - 32 minutes - 11.3 MBThis week on Ring of Fire! Former Vice President Mike Pence announced over the weekend that he was ending his presidential campaign (actually, "suspending" it) after it became crystal clear that he has no path to the nomination. This frees up a small percentage of Republican votes that will now go to other candidates, and it could be enough of a bounce to give another candidate some much-needed momentum as the Iowa caucuses rapidly approach. Judge Tanya Chutkan set another trap for Donald ...

Rudy Giuliani is being sued by a former staffer for $10 million in a lawsuit that makes some seriously grotesque and horrific claims about the former New York City Mayor.
