Evangelical Leaders Say God Wants Them to Protect Trump


Disgraced evangelical leader Ralph Reed has become the most recent member of the “religious right” to come forward and say that God wants us to protect Donald Trump. Reed has a new book coming out that allegedly makes the moral case for Christians to support Trump, but his pleas might be falling on deaf ears, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.


Who’d want to be an American Evangelical Christian? They have such a crazy (mis)understanding of Christianity!

Trump Admin Threatens to Defund Colleges for Portraying Islam in Positive Light


Donald Trump swears that he doesn’t discriminate against anyone, but the actions of his administration say otherwise. The Department of Education, headed by Betsy DeVos, has warned Duke and UNC that they will cut funding for the colleges if they don’t stop portraying Islam in a positive way. This is a disgusting move by this administration, but sadly, not all that shocking. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Jeffrey Epstein Kept Super Creepy Painting of Bill Clinton in Manhattan Townhouse


The searches of Jeffrey Epstein’s homes and his private island were bound to uncover some seriously bizarre items, but the painting of Bill Clinton that Epstein had hanging in his Manhattan townhouse might already be the weirdest thing. The oil painting features Bill Clinton sitting in a chair, pointing at the artist while wearing a blue dress and high heels. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins attempts to make sense of the painting and why Epstein had it in the first place.

Wall Street Banks Just Rolled on Trump and His Kids


Major Wall Street banks began handing over volumes of data and documents this week about Donald Trump, his children, his business, and everything he’s ever touched as part of an ongoing investigation in New York State, as well as investigations in the House of Representatives. These documents detail the extensive links between the family and Russian oligarchs, and could potentially reveal evidence of criminal activity. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

Trump Has Run 2,200 Facebook Ads Featuring The Word “Invasion”


Donald Trump is still refusing to own up to his role in spreading hate across the country and the deadly consequences that this language has, but a new analysis by Media Matters has found that his campaign has used the word “invasion” in at least 2,200 Facebook ads in the past year. That same word is being used by Fox News today and we have seen what happens as a result of this. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Support for Impeachment Surges as Trump Grows More Unstable


More than 100 Democrats in the House of Representatives now support moving forward with an impeachment inquiry, a surge that occurred shortly after Robert Mueller’s recent testimony and amid Trump’s nonstop Twitter meltdowns. Impeachment is the only option at this point to uncover the crimes committed by Trump, and a strong focus needs to be on his financials. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

Trump Attacks Another Black Man After Being Called Racist


Donald Trump doesn’t seem to understand the fact that the more he attacks prominent African Americans, the more he’s going to be called a racist. And that is a label that is 100% accurate. The President always reserves his harshest attacks for people of color, and this is no coincidence. We have to start calling it what it is, and it is clearly racism. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Jeffrey Epstein Just Had a Really Bad Day In Court


Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein was in court on Monday for his bail hearing, and things could not have gone worse for him. The prosecutors unloaded a treasure trove of new information showing that Epstein was not only a flight risk, but that his lawyers’ claim that he’s been squeaky clean for the past decade is an absolute lie. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what happened.

Most Ambassadors Think Trump Is a Complete Idiot


Earlier this week, British ambassador to the United States Kim Darroch resigned after cables were released showing Mr. Darroch calling the Trump administration “inept.” But according to other former ambassadors to the US, it could have been any one of them writing those words because Trump and his administration are so painfully ignorant and horrible to work with. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

Right-wingers Now Claim Jesus Was a Free Market Capitalist


The folks over at PragerU are terrified of the word “socialism” and they’ve gone as far as to say that Jesus Christ himself was definitely not a socialist but instead was a full on free market capitalist. This is an absolutely ridiculous claim, even when they try to give us examples from the Bible with their own unique, reality-warping spin on them. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Startling Numbers Show How Bad the Wealth Gap Really Is in America


The wealth gap in the United States has been getting worse for decades, but few understand just how bad things really are. Since 1989, the top one percent has gained $21 trillion in wealth while the bottom half has lost more than $900 billion. The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer, and that isn’t an accident. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Republicans Terrified That Their Anti-Abortion Crusade Will Cost Them 2020


Republicans from Pat Robertson to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy are terrified that the string of strict anti-abortion laws that Republicans are passing are going to cost them dearly in 2020. They deserve it. The Republican Party has no idea how far they are setting back reproductive rights for women in this country, and given the backlash that we’ve already seen, it seems likely that Republicans are going to pay dearly in the near future. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

The Trump Administration Is Lying Us Into Another War


The Trump administration claims that the threat from Iran is growing in the Middle East, and that’s why we may need to go to war against the country. Nothing could be further from the truth. Foreign intelligence and military members have said that this threat is overblown, and retired experts in the US are saying the same thing, but that hasn’t stopped this administration from ramping up their preparations against Iran. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

Trump’s Lifetime Of Lies Comes Crashing Down


The past few years haven’t been kind to Donald Trump, and he completely deserves it. The man has spent his entire life creating an image that has been revealed to be a complete con job. His businesses are failures, his net worth is overblown, and his presidency has been an utter failure by every stretch of the imagination. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains how things went so bad for Donald.

Pompeo and Bolton Push Us Closer to War with Iran


With the United States designating a part of Iran’s military as a terror group, the administration is inching even closer towards a war with Iran. And thanks to a law passed by Congress shortly after the 9/11 attacks, they might be able to do it without having to get approval from Congress first. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains how this new designation could allow the administration to act unilaterally against Iran.

Tucker Carlson’s White Power Hour Is Losing Tons Of Money


Tucker Carlson’s ratings might be at a near-record high, but his ad dollars have been cut nearly in half in the past year. This is due to the fact that he has completely turned his program into a nationalist hour where he rails against immigrations, assimilation, and other issues that only appeal to a certain sect of the white population. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

Trump Autographs Bibles In Alabama Because Nothing Makes Sense Anymore


Donald Trump toured disaster areas in Alabama last Friday after a monster tornado destroyed a town and left more than 20 people dead. But the President didn’t waste too much time mourning those we had lost, as he then headed to a church where he signed bibles for phony religious Republicans. This is exactly the kind of thing that the bible warned us about, and this fake evangelicals don’t even realize it. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.
