Episode 792: Trump Attends Pope’s Funeral and As Expected it Goes Horribly Wrong; Wisconsin Judge Arrested

This week on Ring of Fire!

Donald Trump was humiliated on the global stage this past weekend for both his behavior at Pope Francis’ funeral, as well as his policies that were attacked during the Homily. Trump was called out for breaking the dress code by wearing a blue suit, for chewing gum during the service, and for playing on his phone. But the real attack came during the Homily, when the world was reminded that the Pope always encouraged people to “build bridges, not walls,” which was a direct line of attack to Trump’s “build the wall” pledge.

The Trump administration has hit a new level of lawlessness after they proudly announced that they had arrested a judge in Wisconsin for allegedly obstructing the arrest of an undocumented person. The man was appearing in court for domestic battery charges. The administration sent plainclothes officers to arrest him, and when the judge confronted the agents and told them that they didn’t have the proper warrant, she directed the defendant and his lawyer to a separate area of the courthouse.

The Trump administration has taken the unprecedented move of dismissing ALL of the voting rights cases that the DOJ was actively pursuing against cities, states, or municipalities that may have violated sections of the Voting Rights Act and violated people’s rights in the process. They then took things a step further by firing all of the investigators in the voting rights division of the DOJ. This gives states a green light to suppress and violate voting rights across the country.

All that, and much more, on this week’s Ring of Fire Podcast!
