Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is sitting on a mountain of cash right now - almost more than any other candidate running for any office this year. His fundraising haul dwarfs anything that Florida has ever seen, and it is way more than he would need to run for governor. So why are big donors still flooding him with cash? The answer, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins points out, is incredibly obvious.

Florida's Republican governor. Ron DeSantis might actually be the richest person in American politics today. And I'm not talking about his net worth. I'm talking about how much money that that goofball has on hand here in the state of Florida, as of the end of may, the last month for which we have full accounting for Ron DeSantis had more money than any member of the Senate running for reelection than any member of the house running for reelection and more money on hand than Donald Trump's save America political action committee. Now I'm sure, you know, I've talked about it plenty of times, Donald Trump's political action committee at one point a couple months ago, had more cash on hand than either the democratic or Republican party. In fact, he had so much cash on hand that he had more money than the democratic and Republican parties combined. Now we find out that Ron DeSantis actually has more cash on hand than Donald Trump's political action committee. So again, he's pretty much the richest man in American politics in terms of how much money he has for his reelection campaign. This is an unprecedented amount of money here in the state of Florida. Uh, he doesn't even need to spend a fraction of that on his election. And right now he's not spending any of it. He's ahead in the polls. It's not super duper strong leads, but it's strong enough to where he doesn't have to do anything. That's how powerful this man has become. And a lot of it of course, has to do with the culture war BS that he has been pushing on the state. And the fact that more and more Republican donors are abandoning Donald Trump, right? This new report says that DeSantis is pulling in more money every single day. So the big question is how does this money help him? Well, like I said, he doesn't need it for his gubernatorial run and he's term limited if he wins. So where's it go after that? Gee, what could Ron DeSantis spend a hundred million on after he wins reelection? Cuz he can't run for governor again? Huh? If only there was some kind of higher office like, like the highest office in the land where he could have a hundred million dollar head start against anybody else running against him. This money that Ron DeSantis has been given is not for his gubernatorial bid it's for his presidential run. Now I know what you're saying, but Faron, we have laws in the country that say a state lawmaker. If you've raised the money for this race, you can't flip it over into the presidential run. Oh yeah, we sure we sure do have laws. You know what? Those laws all come with loopholes Very easy to get around loopholes. Pretty much all DeSantis has to do is start a national political action committee, much like Trump did put the money in there and then he's fine. Then he can use it for whatever the hell he wants to use it for. That's it like literally that's the loophole. That's how easy it is. I know there's a lot of paperwork involved. Sure. But that's all he has to do. And again, the man would have at least a hundred million head start above any other person running for president in 2024 on the Republican side, he is the front runner. I know the polls don't show that, but the money do, does the money talks more than that poll Ron DeSantis? In my opinion, based on these financial numbers is officially the Republican front runner for 2024. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McFAyb0SnCk

According to a new report, the Biden administration is preparing for the reality that Republicans will likely be taking back the House in the midterm races, and that means an onslaught of investigations. And that's not speculation - plenty of Republicans have stated it plainly, letting us all know that they will spend the next two years looking at Hunter Biden, Afghanistan, Fauci, and anything else they can attach a conspiracy theory to. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.   Link - https://www.rawstory.com/republicans-midterms/ Become a member today!: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYWIEbibRcZav6xMLo9qWWw/join Support us by becoming a monthly patron on Patreon, and help keep progressive media alive!: https://www.patreon.com/TheRingofFire Find our merchandise at Teespring: https://teespring.com/stores/rof-store Spread the word!

The Biden white house is apparently preparing themselves for when not, if Republicans take back the house of representatives, this coming November and according to a lengthy new piece in the New York times, they're doing this by lawyering up because they're expecting Republicans again. When they take back the house, not if to launch investigation after investigation on every possible thing, you could imagine hunter Biden, hunter Biden's laptop, Dr. Fauci mask mandates the withdrawal from Afghanistan, the baby formula shortage. Am I missing anything else that Republicans have said they wanna investigate him for? Because I'm pretty sure I am, but that's just a handful of things off the top of my head that Republicans have said in the last few months, they will be investigating when they take back over the house. Let me read this from the New York times here, president Biden's legal team is laying the groundwork to defend against an expected onslaught of oversight investigations by congressional Republicans. Should they take one or both chambers in the midterms, including preparing for the possibility of impeachment as payback for the two impeachments of president, Donald Trump, as part of those preparations, Mr. Biden and his white house counsel, Dana Remus have hired Richard saber a long time, white collar defense lawyer, who is now the top lawyer for the department of veterans affairs to oversee responses, to subpoenas and other oversight efforts. So they've lawyered up. They're ready for this. They're saying, we know they're gonna do this. We know they're taken back the house. So we're just preparing so we could be ready for all of these investigations. That seems a little cowardly, right? I mean, I know it's good to plan ahead, but I mean, let's not admit defeat when we're only in mid may right now, lots of things can happen. We have seen poles up and down side to side that have shifted, that have changed. Things are different. This may not be the Republican red tsunami that they were predicting just six months ago, which yes, that is the word they use. Red tsunami. They predicted predicted, excuse me, picking up, up to 70 seats in the house. I don't think that's gonna happen. Are they probably gonna win back the house? Absolutely. But this move by the white house is kind of like already admitting defeat and that's not gonna help morale across the country. Biden. The ability to win these midterms is literally in your hands. If you were to come out today and say, okay, you know what? Here's that executive order you've been waiting for student loan debt doesn't exist anymore. You're gonna get those 18 to 30 year olds showing up because they've already said, they're probably not gonna show up if you don't deliver for them in the midterms. So deliver for 'em like that that's 100% on you, but instead you're out there like, okay, were they gonna launch these BS investigations? Which yes, I believe these investigations are total BS and it's stupid, but Republicans have Said gonna do it. So we do have to understand that's what the next two years will be. There will be no forward progress anywhere in this country whatsoever. And that's the biggest problem, but it may not be a problem for the Democrats because Republicans themselves have actually admitted that if we spend the next two years just doing nothing but investigating Biden. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0Q5ypwwIeM

An accused Capitol Rioter is facing the music after prosecutors caught him lying about his recent travel. He had been placed on travel restrictions by the prosecution, but he said he had to travel to Washington to meet with his lawyers about his upcoming trial. Instead, he attended CPAC and posted pictures of himself online at the conference, which is how he got busted. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses the combination of arrogance and stupidity that led to this point.

An accused Capitol Rioter, who also happens to be an accused member of the Proud Boys, is in hot water with prosecutors after he was caught lying to them about his recent travel. Now the accused is a man by the name of Gabriel Garcia and he had been placed on travel restrictions while he awaits his trial for participating in the events of January 6th, where he filmed himself taunting Nancy Pelosi then, of course, posted the video, so not a lot of guesswork as to whether or not he was there that day. But prosecutors, as he awaits trial, had put a travel restriction upon him. If you want to leave the state of Florida, you have to check with us. Tell us where you're going, why you're going, and we'll approve it or not approve it. So he goes to them recently and says, Hey, I need to leave Florida to go to Washington DC to talk with my lawyers. So of course, the prosecutor said, well, obviously that is a valid legal reason you may travel, except he didn't go to Washington DC to meet with his lawyers. Instead, he went to the CPAC conference, and prosecutors found this out because the idiot actually posted on social media that he was at cpac. So you lied to prosecutors about why you were traveling, and then you were dumb enough to post it on social media as if these people weren't staking out your posts to find out if you were lying to them. Here's what prosecutors said. In a court filing, the government is surprised by defendant's whereabouts On his recent trip, the government consented to defendants travel out of Florida to Washington, DC for the limited stated purpose of attending trial and meeting with counsel. It appears however, that the exigent circumstance warranting defendant's numerous last minute request to travel to Washington DC on these precise states was for the purpose of attending C P A C DC 23, not watching trial. The issue is not that defendant attended a political event. The real problem is that defendant has repeatedly demonstrated that his representations to the court should be doubted where he purports to need to watch a January 6th trial to make decisions about his own case. In reality, he used watching trial as a pretext for attending an out-of-state conference that featured a panel of January 6th defendants and personally meeting at least one such individual. And according to the prosecutors, this is also not the first time he lied about his travel now attending C P A, not attending c a, yeah, they probably would not have, uh, given you clearance to do that because again, you're awaiting trial on very, very serious charges here. But here's the other problem you have, Mr. Garcia, the prosecutors now have evidence that you lied To the court. How do you think the jury's gonna respond to that? Because this is going to be brought up. Your entire credibility for your defense was just shot to hell. I'm sure, I'm sure your lawyers are probably sitting at their offices banging their heads against their desks because at this point there is probably nothing they can do for you. When you have exhibited to the court that your own words cannot be trusted, that you are stupid enough to post your lies on social media to get busted, you are screwed. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yVZPUx_Qv0

Steve Bannon is trying to capitalize on Trump's calls for a new election this week, and Bannon said that the election needs to take place immediately so that Trump can be back in office inn record time. These idiots are never going to give up their crusade to undo a Democratic election, and they need to be treated as the extremists that they truly are. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

So Monday evening, Donald Trump sent out a post on truth, social, where he cited this conspiracy theory about the FBI. And he claimed that he should either one be installed as president immediately, or that two, we should have a new election this week so that he could get to play president again for another two and a half years. Well, Steve Bannon of course on Tuesday, decided to jump on this and run with it. So in an interview with Rudy Giuliani, Steve Bannon talked about Donald Trump's late night rant the day before. And this is what Steve Bannon said about it. We're never giving up Trump put up last night that Hey, because of the hunter Biden situation, because of the FBI guy, either getting fired or quitting because of Facebook saying the FBI told them not to do it, that he wants, uh, that he won and he wants another election immediately. You're going to not be able to certify the Biden electors and by not certifying the Biden electors, the electoral count of 1887 in our beloved constitution has a way that what's supposed to happen. That is a convenient election where you vote by state party delegation. And guess what? Even with Liz shady of Wyoming voting for the Democrats, I think we still win 26 to 24. So let's do it. Let's start the contingent election this week. Let's do it. That's what we should do. And MSNBC suck on that. I just love the, and by the way, MSNBC, go ahead and suck on that. Like what a very smart and mature way for this almost elderly gentleman to be ending his little rant here. Um, here's the thing though. You've got your legal facts all wrong, Steve, because you're an idiot. Um, you're like, they're not gonna be able to certify the Biden electors. Okay. You, you do know that already happened. Legitimately already happened. Like it was actually a pretty big event because people who watch your show did something also that day to try to stall that and prevent it from happening, but they were unsuccessful. So the Biden electors already got certified and there's no legal mechanism in this country, in this constitution to de-certify those electors. So it doesn't matter. You're I know you're trying to sound smart and you're like the electoral vote act of, oh, and this other thing here. And then we have the state. Cool. It's cool that you know those things, but I suggest you actually read a little deeper in there because there is no remedy to decertify electors that have already been certified or to take out a president that has already been legally sworn in All of that, of course, would even only apply if what they were saying was true, which of course it is not what we found out from the FBI via the whistleblower was that they, in the beginning of the hunter Biden laptop story slow rolled it a little bit. So as not to interfere with the 2020 presidential election with Facebook, Facebook, uh, uh, founder, mark Zuckerberg told Joe Rogan that the FBI did not specifically tell them to throttle the hunter Biden story. And for the record, as mark Zuckerberg had pointed out in his testimony to the Senate a year or so ago, he admitted they throttled the hunter Biden story while it was being fact checked. And then after that, there was no throttling whatsoever. So one you're not even presenting any new information. And two, none of that had an impact on the 2020 election. You had Republicans out there, people like Tucker Carlson, swearing up and down, they already had the laptop and they were gonna release it. Rudy Giuliani has said that he has had it. Matt gates says that he has it too. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNa0NoBdjJo
