During an interview this week on Real America's Voice, Donald Trump - a man that has been accused of assault and harassment by dozens of women - claimed that he has been "violated as badly as anybody that's ever walked." He was, of course, referring to the widely misconstrued Durham Report that was released last week and provided no evidence of any crimes committed during the investigations of Trump. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins dissects Trump's new claim.

It's been just two weeks since Donald Trump was found liable for the assault of Eugene Carroll and a Bergdorf Goodman department store dressing room in the 1990s. And on top of that, of course, we can't forget the fact that Donald Trump has admitted on tape the Access Hollywood tape. That, by the way, was a huge part of that Eugene Carroll trial. He's admitted that he has forcibly kissed women against their will. He has, as he, you know, paraphrasing grabbed them by the genitals. He has been accused of either assault or harassment or unwanted, uh, physical touching of some sort by more than 40 women. And yet this predator had the audacity during an interview this week to say that he has been violated worse than any other person basically throughout all of American history. This predator, and I do think that is the appropriate word here, says that he is the one that has been repeatedly violated, even though he's on tape admitting to violating women. Here's how that exchange took place during that, uh, uh, real America's voice interview, uh, host, Amanda Head asked him, keeping that within the conversation of the Durham report, do you feel like your civil liberties were violated? Trump responded. Well, totally. I think I've been violated as badly as anybody that's ever walked. There's never been any violation like this. I've been violated beyond belief. And that's because of political. It's really a political persecution. So violated, violated, violated. He used the word three different times in three different consecutive sentences, violated all because of course, the host put that word in his head. And now he's like, yes, I shall repeat this word over and over because now I like it. Uh, that's how manipula, uh, easily manipulable Donald Trump is, by the way. But you haven't been violated, bud. That Durham report did not find any violations. It did not find any wrongdoing. Durham simply pointed out like, yeah, I think they should have done this instead of this, you know, instead of doing it this way and calling it this, they should have done it this way and called it this. And then maybe in the future we'll hire a lawyer to oversee any kind of political thing that those were his recommendations from the report. Like, that's all he said. So you weren't violated. The women who have come forward to speak out against you, those women have been violated. Eugene Carroll was violated. So how dare you use that same language? How dare you try to claim that you have been violated worse than anyone that's ever walked when you are the serial predator, according to, again, more than 40 different Women that have been willing to come forward. God only knows what the actual number is because we know that not everybody is able to come forward. But this is what we're dealing with folks, not just with Donald Trump, but with these idiots over it. Again, what is this real America's voice? I don't even really know what that is. I mean, I've talked about 'em a hundred times. I don't know what it, is it an internet show? Is it a YouTube channel? Like, what is this? ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTMcpA3Xtrk

The editorial board of the South Florida Sun Sentinel has issued a scathing op-ed against Ron DeSantis for trying to act like a tough guy in his campaign ads, but running away like a baby when Democratic challenger Charlie Crist calls for more debates. So far, DeSantis has only agreed to one debate with his opponent, even though multiple groups have offered to host - and Crist has eagerly accepted those challenges. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Florida governor Ron DeSantis has put out some, uh, you know, pretty, I would say viral ads. for his reelection as Florida's governor, including right. The top gun parody ad that I'm sure most people have already seen. It's made the rounds on social media as it made national news. I know other progressive talkers have talked about that ridiculous ad from Ron DeSantis, basically it's him trying to be a tough guy, right? I'm the toughest of the tough, you know, he, he even mentions it in the ad. He says never back down from a fight, never back down from a fight, except that is exactly what Ron DeSantis is doing right now. He's backing away from a fight because he has been challenged to multiple debates here in the state of Florida, we have had groups offered a host debates. And so far, Ron DeSantis is refusing to debate his democratic opponent, Charlie Christ. And he is now of course, being called out by this, by a major Florida newspaper, the south, uh, Florida sun Sentinel, their editorial board issued a scathing editorial calling out tough guy, DeSantis for not being willing to debate Charlie Christ. Now to his credit, of course he has agreed to one debate, right? They're gonna do one maybe, but that's it. We're talking about a hotly contested governor's seat, an individual in Ron DeSantis, who of course has made national headlines for two straight years. He claims he's the toughest of the tough says he'll never back down from a fight. And here is Charlie Christ. Yeah. Skinny guy lanky a little bit. Even if you wanna call him that. And here he comes up and says, Hey, big tough guy. I wanna fight. I wanna fight you on that debate stage. And Ron DeSantis shrinks away. No though, I don't want an debate. Ah, I'd rather put out these ads talking about how I'm fighting Joe Biden, dude, Joe, Biden's not even fighting you. You realize that, right? That that's why you like that fight because Biden's not sitting there every single day of the week, stewing over, oh, what am I gonna do about Ron DeSantis? No, but you are. You're like, oh, how am I gonna stick it to Biden today? Oh, what can I do today? That's been your whole job. Since you took over the state of Florida and drove us right into the depths of hell. You know, DeSantis is a coward. And what I love about this newspaper calling him out is that it's just saying the same things that I've been saying for months now. You know, a lot of people don't agree with me when I say that Ron DeSantis, and again, I've been saying this for months, Ron DeSantis is gonna flame out pretty quickly on the national stage. A lot of people said, well, I just don't know. I don't know. I don't see it happening. Well, this is why he's afraid. He can't debate. He is not good at it. He gets flustered. He gets angry. His body and face literally turn red and you can see it. It's easy for his opponents to knock him off balance. And then he comes across as an angry idiot. DeSantis is easily beatable. We just haven't had Democrats good enough to do that. Rick Scott was very beatable, but we never had good enough Democrats to take the shots at him that they needed to take. Maybe Chris has learned his lesson. Hell, he's lost enough elections to very beatable Republicans here in the state of Florida. That you'd think he'd learn by now. And maybe he's gonna go gloves off. Maybe he's gonna be the one to finally come out and say, I'm not gonna be a Mely mouth Democrat. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iseIrZAAIgU

A group of 10 fake Trump electors in Wisconsin have agreed to a settlement in a civil lawsuit brought against them by Democratic voters in the state. As part of the settlement, the fake electors have to admit that Trump lost the 2020 election and that Biden won, and send a letter stating as much so that it is public record. But that's just the tip of the iceberg, and this settlement could have significant impacts on Trump's federal trial, as the fake electors also agreed to work with the DOJ in any ongoing investigations into fake electors. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

This week, 10 fake Trump electors from the state of Wisconsin agreed to a settlement deal with a lawsuit that had been filed against them by democratic voters in the state of Wisconsin. This was not a criminal lawsuit, it was in fact a civil lawsuit seeking to get $2.4 million from these 10 fake Republican electors. And as part of the settlement, not only did the plaintiffs in the case agree that, hey, we don't actually want the money. What we want is a couple other things that these fake electors agreed to pretty much without question. So what are those terms that these 10 fake Trump electors have come to? Well, the first is that they have to publicly admit that President Biden won the 2020 election. So first order of business, y'all gotta go through a little bit of humiliation here, right? You gotta swallow your pride and you gotta admit your guy lost. President Biden won. Not only that, they have to, uh, send a statement to the government offices that received the electoral college votes saying that their actions were, quote, part of an attempt to improperly overturn the 2020 presidential election results. And they have to agree to not serve as electors again in 2024 or any other election or race on which Donald Trump is on that ballot. So they gotta write a letter saying like, yeah, we were stupid, we're sorry, but that's just, that's just kind of the haha we're gonna make you do some some stupid things. Another thing they have to do, because there is an ongoing lawsuit in Wisconsin against Kenneth Chesbro, the indicted Trump lawyer from Georgia, who is now also cooperating in Nevada. He's being sued in Wisconsin. And these 10 fake electors agreed that they will work with the plaintiffs in the lawsuit against Chesbro. So we'll give up all the goods, we'll give you all the info. Chesbro did write several memos that were used in Wisconsin to justify the fake electors. So they're basically saying, we agree to help you take down chesbro, but all of that is small potatoes because there is one part of this settlement that actually matters. One part that, for the record in this article, one sentence was devoted to it. And to be honest, kind of me off. They buried the lead here and they didn't tell you the most important part. Let me read it. This is by the way, from Courthouse News Service. I love courthouse news service. They dropped the ball with this article. Here's what they said in this one sentence under the settlement, the 10 fake electors promised to assist the Department of Justice with its ongoing investigation. That's it. One sentence. One sentence to talk About the fact that these 10 fake electors that were part of a broader nationwide scheme by Donald Trump to overturn the results of the election, the people involved in it have agreed to work with the DOJ in their prosecution of Trump. That kind of seems like a big deal, like that should have been the headline. But either way, again, these people were working closely with, uh, Kenneth Chesbro Chesbro obviously directly tied to Donald Trump, and now these 10 fake electors are going to cooperate with the DOJ in their ongoing prosecution of Donald Trump. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKqmzfUZvEk

The Wall Street Journal recently spoke to people who call themselves "friends" of Donald Trump, and they believe that the New York fraud trial is as much about Trump's ego as it is about anything else. In fact, they believe that the outcome of the case - especially since liability has already been determined - could end up psychologically breaking Trump. This isn't a far off guess, either. Trump's mental anguish over this case has reached levels that we haven't even seen in the criminal cases that could put him in jail. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

This week the Wall Street Journal decided to catch up with some of Donald Trump's so-called friends in New York City. And they all pretty much told the new, uh, wall Street Journal that this fraud trial in New York City is the one that of course bothers Donald Trump the most. But then they said that the results of this trial could be his psychological undoing, his psychological undoing. Now here's the thing, this trial, the fraud trial in New York, which is not criminal in nature, like Trump's not gonna go to jail regardless of what happens with the results of this trial. He's just gonna have to pay money. And of course it's gonna prove that he lied about the value of his properties and his own net worth. But that's why he's freaked out more about this one than any of the other trials. And I've been saying that for a long time now, folks, regular viewers here, know that yes, this is barren standard line. I've been saying it for a while, but to hear it coming from his friends in this Wall Street Journal piece, these people see it. These people know him clearly better than I do 'cause I don't know him at all, thank God. But they know it too because it's that obvious. His panicked posts on truth social, you know, calling Letitia James a racist, attacking the judge, attacking everybody else involved in this, just going absolutely, you know, monkey crap over what is happening here when all it is is a civil trial. Makes no sense until you realize this is about his ego, not about the criminal penalties, not about the civil penalties, it's all about his ego. Here is what Trump biographer David K. Johnston had to say about this issue. Donald is his money, and that's the single most important thing to understand, and it's the sum and substance of who he is. He was raised by a monster of a father who was involved with two, with the two biggest mafia families in New York and up to his eyeballs, and he taught Donald that getting the money was all that mattered. And the win is all that matters. Anything that would take away his appearance of being very wealthy emphasize that word appearance is a threat to his very existence. That's the core of the problem Donald is facing here. This is more threatening to Donald's mind than the prospect of going to prison, which he can put off as, oh, that's not going to happen. He sees this happening as part of the reason he's sitting there in the courtroom because he doesn't have to be there at this stage. So it's all about his ego, it's all about his appearance. It's all about being able to convince people that you have more money than you actually have because as David K. Johnston there brilliantly point out Donald is his money. And if we find out when this trial concludes that that money is a hell of a lot smaller than he told us, then it's not just the value, it's not just the money that's smaller. Trump gets smaller, his influence gets smaller, his power gets smaller, his ego gets smaller. So I agree with these Trump friends. I agree with biographer David K. Johnston. This trial could be the one that finally mentally breaks Donald Trump For good. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLdGsoo8gco
