    This week on Ring of Fire!

    Impeachment fever has infected the Republicans in the House of Representatives, and Speaker Kevin McCarthy officially announced the opening of an impeachment inquiry into President Biden this week. But who is really pulling the strings here? We'll answer that question for you.

    Marjorie Taylor Greene is once again suggesting that states should secede from the Union, and she could find herself facing a 14th Amendment challenge for her rhetoric.

    Donald Trump's economic plans for a second term will decimate the working class while he gives himself and the rest of the wealthy elite another major tax break - we'll bring the details.

    And Trump's legal problems don't seem to be getting any better as he and his lawyers keep angering the judges and prosecutors.

    All that - and much, much more - coming up on this week's Ring of Fire!

    Could RFK, Jr. wreck Republicans in 2024?

    What happens if Trump doesn't go to prison?

    Donald Trump is facing a March 4th trial date for the federal charges against him for trying to overturn the election, and his Republican allies in Congress are trying everything they can to prevent the DOJ from being able to prosecute him.

    The New York state lawsuit against Donald Trump and his sons took an interesting turn this week after the transcripts of Trump's deposition were made public - we'll explain the significance of what he said.

    Republicans are suffering from a serious case of impeachment fever, but no matter the outcome of the impending inquiry, Republicans will be the ones who lose.

    And President Biden scored a major victory for workers this week by proposing a rule that would give substantial raises to roughly 4 million Americans.

    This week on Ring of Fire!

    We're doing a PRE-Debate rundown, letting you know what you can expect to hear - and expect NOT to hear - at the first Republican primary debate, as well as what is at stake for some of the top candidates.

    Also, Donald Trump's decision to skip the debate might have less to do with his feelings of superiority and more to do with his lawyers' fears that he'll further incriminate himself.

    That's all coming up on this week's Ring of Fire!

    George Santos' former staffer gets indicted for impersonating Kevin McCarthy's Chief of Staff in fundraising calls.

    And the chair of the Florida Republican Party is glad that "perverted" parents of LGBTQ youth are trying to leave the state.
