Revolution_The Podcast - August 19/17

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier discuss the State of the Trump Presidency; Post-Charlottesville: his own business councils abandoned Trump; Steve Schwarzman and Carl Icahn - friends of Trump - bailed out on him; Trump then fired Steve Bannon, who is certain to wage war from the far right against the Trump Administration, the GOP Congress and Fox News; Trump's poll ratings declined to unprecedented lows for a first-year president. Indeed, the Administration, the Republican Party and the Right are all coming apart at the seams.

Revolution_The Podcast - August 11/17

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier examine President Trump's angry outbursts against North Korea, Senate Majority Leader McConnell and the news media - while "thanking" Vladimir Putin for expelling 755 American diplomats from Russia. What is driving his anger? Is it the two Grand Juries investigating his relationship with Russia? Is it the FBI raid on Paul Manafort's home? Is it Robert Mueller who is "locked and loaded"?

Revolution_The Podcast - August 6/17

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine how Donald Trump's legal and political difficulties have escalated in the past week. From the revelation that Special Counsel Mueller is now using both DC and Virginia Grand Juries to the request for Michael Flynn documents from the White House, Trump's legal difficulties are clearly mounting. So, too, are his political problems as his polling continues to drop and a GOP-led US Senate encircles him with a Sanctions Bill and plans a new law to prevent him from firing Mueller. Indeed, the noose is steadily tightening.

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier talk to Watergate Prosecutor Nick Akerman about Robert Mueller and his team: what are they thinking about President Trump personally dictating a false statement aboard Air Force One about the June 2016 meeting with the Russian lawyer? Why has the White House lied about this incident? Will the President fire Mueller, which he refused to rule out in a WSJ interview? And why did Mr. Mueller add a 16th lawyer to his team, this time an expert in foreign bribery cases?

Revolution_The Podcast - July 30/17

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier look at how low Trump and his Administration sank this past week: from the Boy Scouts to Scaramucci's foul rants; from the failure to pass health care to the almost-unanimous new Russian Sanctions bill; from threatening and demeaning Jeff Sessions to advocating police violence, Trump had yet another disastrous week.

Revolution_The Podcast - July 23/17

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier explore the almost-inevitable confrontation between President Trump and Special Counsel Robert Mueller. What will happen? Will the President fire AG Sessions in order to then be able to fire Mueller? Or will Mr. Trump yet again do the unprecedented - and pardon himself?

Revolution_The Podcast - July 15/17

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier look at the sudden transformation of the Trump-Russia Story from a "Nothingburger" to a "Smoking Cannon." We look at how the constantly changing descriptions of the Trump, Jr. meeting with the Russian lawyer have made even some pro-Trumpers begin to doubt the veracity of the White House. And we explore other new revelations about a possibly longer, deeper Trump-Russia connection.

Revolution_The Podcast - July 9/17

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier discuss the just-completed Trump-Putin Meeting in Hamburg; the odd "Podesta tweet"; the just-announced pre-conditions to lifting sanctions; the sudden and surprise revelation of yet another secret 2016 meeting between the senior Trump staff and a Kremlin insider; and the announcement of a Cyber Security arrangement with the Russians.

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier take an objective look at this coming Friday's epic Trump-Putin meeting in Hamburg, Germany.

Is the Trump-Russia Collusion Scandal a Nothing Burger, as the Trump PR Machine claims - or is it a Double Whopper with Russian Dressing, a Watergate-scale scandal that threatens to sink the Trump Presidency?

Revolution_The Podcast - June 27/17

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier examine the mixed news surrounding the Trump Administration: a partial victory in the Supreme Court on the Travel Ban and a clear win in the Georgia Special Congressional election are offset by increased desperation from the President as he feels the Mueller Investigation closing in on him.
