Republican Representative Lauren Boebert barely won re-election last year, eeking out a victory of just 546 votes. And things are already going very badly for her in next year's race. Boebert is facing the same Democratic challenger - Adam Frisch - and his recent campaign finance report shows that he raised THREE TIMES as much as Boebert in the last quarter. But things are not always as they seem, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Lauren Bobert is in very bad shape as she heads towards her reelection race next year as her Democratic challenger. Uh, Adam Fris has for the second quarter in a row out raised her by astronomical margins. This past quarter, the second quarter of 2023, Adam Fresh raised roughly three times more money than Lauren Bobert. And let's not forget that in 2022, right last November, Fris was Bert's Democratic challenger and only lost by 546 votes, 546 votes. It was less than half a percentage point between the two candidates. So Frish came closer than anyone could have imagined to beating Lauren Bobert. And right now in the money game, he is absolutely demolishing her. Uh, Frisch's campaign reported bringing in 2.6 million from April through June, which is more than Triple Bert's, roughly $818,000. It's the second quarter in a row. Frish out raised Bobert. He raised 1.7 million in the first quarter while Bobert reportedly brought in around 764,000. So he only lost by 546 votes. He's out raising her to the tune of millions of dollars for this one seat in Colorado. Things are looking up, right? If you were to base it on that, especially the Poles right now, show the two once again neck and neck, you would think hell yeah, fresh has it because he is got the fundraising edge. Cool. Your Jets folks, cuz things aren't always what they seem. Unfortunately, as I've talked about with the Ted Cruz race, you know, not just the one coming up next year, but from 2018, the race between Mitch McConnell and Amy McGrath, the uh, race between Graham and Booker out of state money in these state races in these district races means nothing. Unfortunately, we do not right now have the numbers for Adam Fresh to see what he has raised in the district versus the money that he's raised out of the district. Because if the bulk of his money that he has raised is coming from not the people who vote for him, then it doesn't matter, right? Yeah, it'll help you buy more ads. But at the end of the day, the people who gave you the money, the people who support you, if they don't live in your district and can't vote for you, their support doesn't matter at all. Sorry, but it doesn't. Now I want Adam Frish to win. I want Lauren Bobert to go away for good. I don't want to ever have to talk about her again. So I'm hoping these numbers are real. I'm hoping the people giving Adam Fresh money are within that district. Yes, it's okay to get some out-of-state money to help bolster things, but he needs the support of the people in that district, okay? That's where the messaging needs to be centered. That's what needs to be happening right now. Because if he can do that, he can pull off the major upset that all of us want to see happen. Now, typically, I've said this in the past, especially regarding this race, typically I am against two candidates running against each other again when one of them already lost. But because the margin was so razor thin, I make an exception for this race and I'm good with Frish being the candidate. I think he has what it takes to do it, especially because Lauren Bert's own constituents reports all through this year have shown that they're sick and tired of her already in her second term. Yeah, we voted for her a second time, but now we're off cuz she's still just as crazy. She's not paying attention to us. So Frish can do this, but let's not get distracted by those big shiny campaign finance numbers because they may not always mean what we'd like. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPX3Du_ChCQ

Fox News host Tucker Carlson has emerged as the Republican with the absolute worst take on mass shootings this week, after he suggested that the men who commit these acts could be doing so because they are tired of being lectured about "male privilege" from women. It wasn't immediately clear how the two things could even be connected, but that didn't stop Carlson from making the assertion. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

There's been a lot of idiotic talking points surrounding the Highland park shooting from earlier this week with Republicans offering excuses for the shooter, trying to blame everything that isn't a gun, but Tucker Carlson may have taken the cake here, right? He may have actually come up with what I think is the dumbest excuse for this shooter at all. Because even though the shooter was a man, even though most mass shooters in this country are men white men, Tucker Carlson found a way to blame women for the actions of these men. Now I'm gonna read you what Tucker Carlson said on his Tuesday evening program. It's lengthy. So bear with me and I'm gonna omit the part. I'm not gonna say the, the shooter's name. I don't believe in doing that. Um, look at the shooter. Would you sell a gun to that guy? Does he seem like a nut case? Of course he does. So why didn't anyone raise an alarm? Maybe it's because he didn't stand out. Maybe he is because there are a lot of young men in America who suddenly look and act like this guy that is not an attack. It is just true. He says like the shooter, they inhabit that solitary fantasy world of social media porn and video games. They are high on government, endorsed weed, smoke some more. It is good for you. They are numbered by the endless psychotropic drugs that are handed out in every school in the country by crack pots, posing as counselors, of course they are angry. They know that their lives will not be better than their parents. They will be worse. That is all but guaranteed. They know that they are not that stupid. And yet the authorities in their lives, mostly women never stop lecturing them about their so-called privilege. You are male. You are privileged. Imagine that try and imagine an unhealthy unhappier life than that. So a lot of young men in America are going nuts. So the fact that we have all of these male mass shooters here in the United States is because of women because of women telling these men that they are privileged Tucker Carlson, doesn't like that. He says, of course, men are going nuts. When women are telling white males in America, that they are privileged. Now, Tucker Carlson obviously would do well to look at some statistics. If you're a white male in your field, you're going to make more. Then literally everybody else in that field doing the exact same job. And it's been that way for decades here in the United States. If you are a white male charged with a crime compared to any other demographic charged with the exact same crime, you are more likely to either get off completely or receive a far less harsh sentence than your counterparts that are not white males. If that's not male white privilege, I, I, I don't know what is Tucker like white men have it better in the United States of America than literally any other Group. And you're trying to tell us that they're being oppressed to the point that they're going nuts. That that is why we have all these mass shootings in the country inching up closer to two per day on average at this point because white men have too much privilege and they're being told they have too much privilege. This is the same guy, of course, Tucker Carlson, who recommended you go out and, uh, tan your testicles in order to increase your testosterone production. This guy is obsessed with men like that's all Tucker Carlson can think about as we need more men, strong men, manly men show your testicles out in the sun. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtnRCS1t3t0

*Use code ROF for 40% OFF and 3 free towels from Miracle Made at https://trymiracle.com/rof * 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. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses the new deal.

So for the past week, in nearly every segment that I have done talking about, oh, the deadline's approaching for Trump to pay the $464 million, I've included the fact that, hey, don't get your hopes up because something always comes along at the last second to save Donald Trump. And Monday was, of course, no exception, as we had just hours left before Donald Trump hit that deadline of having his property seized the appellate court, a five judge panel on the appellate court decided, you know what? Let's not only give him an extra 10 days, but let's also reduce the amount he has to pay for the bond to 175 million, basically a $300 million almost reduction. And of course, on top of that, let's go ahead and give in to his other demands and go ahead and put a stay on several of the conditions that Judge Arthur Geron had put on him, which basically means Donald Trump being barred and his kids being barred from doing business in the state of New York, is now indefinitely on hold, pending his appeal. So he can still do business in New York, his kids can still do business in New York. They got 10 days to come up with 175 thou, uh, million dollar bond, which they should be e uh, easily able to do at this point. And Trump wins again. There's always something that comes along at the last second that saves this bastard every time. No matter how bad you think things are for Trump, no matter how bad they look, this guy always, every time wriggles out of it and following the decision on Monday of the, uh, court to, you know, basically throw him a massive lifeline, Donald Trump went out there and started celebrating. He sent an email out to his supporters with the headline, Trump Tower remains mine. And of course, he got on truth social to declare victory saying this Judge Arthur Geron has refused to obey by the decision of the appellate division relative to the statute of limitations. This is a confrontation between a judge and those that rule above him, a very bad situation in which to place New York State and the rule of law. Now, before I continue, let me go ahead and say that no Geron actually did not violate the appellate court's decision on the statute of limitations. He, he abided by it. That's why a lot of the years where they also had evidence of fraud, they weren't allowed to do anything about it. So Geron did not violate the court's order there. That is an absolute lie from Donald Trump and a misrepresentation of what happened in the first place. But Trump continued, Geron has disrespected the appellate division, and its very clear and precise ruling he should be made to do so. And at the same time, release the gag order. This is the fifth time in this case that he has been overturned a record. His credibility in that of Letitia James has been shattered. We will abide by the decision of the appellate division and post either a bond equivalent securities or cash. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQnUPQN7U1A
