Revolution_The Podcast

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier welcome Newsmax's Chris Ruddy, to discuss the war between Trump and Fox and how that has impacted Newsmax TV. What will now happen? Will Fox accept the massive defections of their normally-huge audience to Newsmax? Or will Rupert Murdoch try to "buy" Trump and his followers back by offering Trump a huge book deal for his memoirs and a TV deal on Fox? Or will Murdoch not want to be "tethered" to Trump any longer?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the election of Joe Biden - and the rejection of Donald Trump. What now happens to Trumpism? What happens to the Republican Party? And to Fox?

In Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier's final REVOLUTION podcast before the November 3rd election they explore whose "character is on the ballot" - is it Trump's or Biden's? Or, in fact, is it the American voters' character? Was the 2016 election a new path for this country that will be validated in this election? Or was it an aberration, a fluke, that will be corrected on November 3rd?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier ask: why is the President of the United States - two weeks from the election - raising the possibility that he might leave the country if he loses? What does he fear? Prosecution? Exposure of his financial situation? Will he self-pardon himself? Why is he talking like a loser when there are still two weeks left in the campaign?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine Donald Trump's plan to corrupt various US Government institutions - from the US Military to the CDC, FDA, NIH, GOP and the FBI - in order to have a "continuation" of his power. Will this work? With five weeks to go before the election can he pull this brazen plan off? Or will a majority of the American voters be the one institution he cannot bully, browbeat and brainwash?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze the fall-out from the Bob Woodward book and the Atlantic story on Trump disparaging the troops. How much has Trump hurt himself by admitting that he "played down and is still playing down" the deadly nature of Covid-19? How much has he damaged himself with his on-the-record statements claiming, "My fucking generals are a bunch of pussies"? What does the latest polling show? Is this the worst case of political malpractice ever?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the political effects of the news stories detailing allegations of President Trump denigrating soldiers who have died or been captured as "losers" and "suckers." Is this an inflection point in the campaign? Do these stories show the real Donald Trump? What does this say about those who continue to support Trump? Do these revelations give Joe Biden the upper hand in the final 58 days of the campaign?

In the latest episode of REVOLUTION Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier address the palpable feeling - despite polling evidence to the contrary - that Trump might somehow yet again win this election. Can he repeat 2016? What will he do to pull this off? What has happened to the Republican Party to not even have a platform and instead just follow Trump all the time? And there is this fear: if Trump indeed somehow wins, is this the end of America as the leader of the free world?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier analyze how the Trump Rally in Tulsa is a microcosm of the State of 2020 campaign. Does the poor attendance indicate a lack of enthusiasm for Trump - even among his base? Will his claim to order his people to slow down testing for the virus haunt him in the campaign? And what of the botched attempt to fire the prosecutor in the Southern District, the two Supreme Court rulings and the constantly bad head-to-head polling versus Joe Biden?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier discuss how AMERICA CAN'T BREATHE: the killing of George Floyd has unleashed forces in America that involve civilian control of the military; the fealty of church leaders to either their flock or the POTUS; a new popular protest movement that has the support of 76% of the American people. All of this has implications for the November elections.

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier look at the looming Senate Impeachment Trial and analyze what may happen. Will there be a White House-orchestrated whitewash? Or will there be actual witnesses and documents? Will there be surprises? Leaks? Does anyone honestly know how this will turn out?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier ask: who is getting thrown under the bus? Trump? Rudy? Bolton? Who is going to pay the price for trying to extort and bribe the Ukrainian president for a phony investigation into the Bidens? Who turns first and saves themselves?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine Donald Trump's current standing - both in new polling and at two sporting events  - in the week that a formal Impeachment Inquiry officially began.  How many Americans now favor impeachment and removal? How many American voters say they are "certain to oppose" Trump in 2020 or "are certain to support" Trump? What is likely to happen to Trump?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze the chaos surrounding Donald Trump. We discuss the Trump-Pelosi Cabinet Room Meeting; the White House Acting Chief-of-Staff Mick Mulvaney Press Conference - and subsequent walk back on a quid pro quo with Ukraine; the Trump letter to Turkish President Erdogan; the Doral G-7 reversal; and ask if Republicans are beginning to separate themselves from Trump? Is all of this the very definition of total chaos?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier analyze the latest revelations surrounding Trump and Ukraine. How much trouble is Trump now in? Are people inside the Administration now ratting out Trump? Does Nancy Pelosi have more information? Will the House of Representatives impeach Trump? Is this the scenario that will finally test his loyal base?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier are back from a summer hiatus to discuss the state of the Trump Presidency, the Trump Trade War, and the campaign to defeat Trump in 2020. Why is Trump behaving even more erratically than usual? Why are White House insiders leaking to the media tales of Trump's deteriorating behavior? What"s going on inside the White House and the Trump Campaign?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze the effects of the first GOP Member of Congress - Rep. Justin Amash - to advocate the impeachment of Donald Trump. Is Congressman Amash alone in his thinking or is he echoing what he hears in the GOP Cloakroom? Will more GOP Members follow his lead? Is there a sense of exhaustion now creeping into the Trump presidency? Is some of the steam even coming out of his base?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the current state of the Trump-Russia-Mueller case. Is it indeed "over" as both Trump and Lindsay Graham announced this week? What can the Democrats now do? Is impeachment still an option? Why did Trump call Putin and talk about the Mueller report? Why is Joe Biden suddenly surging inside the Democratic race? Is he the candidate Trump should most fear?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier discuss the Mueller Report, its aftermath, and where do we go from here?  Was Mueller, in fact, too deferential to the office of the President - and too fair to Trump? Will Trump now retaliate against the FBI and the "investigators"? Will the Democrats move toward impeachment - or defer to the voters in 2020 to render a judgement of Trump's conduct?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier examine the current state of the Barr-Mueller Report(s) and what to expect in the coming weeks. Will the full Mueller Report ever see the light of day? Why is Donald Trump going back to the immigration issue and going to war with the Fed, including attacking his own appointee?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier analyze how the worldwide moral order has been cracked - as evidenced by the white nationalist attacks in New Zealand, the crooked college admissions cases in the US and other governmental and political scandals throughout the West. What will fix it? Who will patch it? Will the 2020 elections begin the healing process?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier examine Trump's week from Hell: from the collapse of the Korean talks to the testimony of Michael Cohen, Trump repeatedly lost. With the House closing in and the Mueller Report soon-to-come,  a sweaty Donald Trump vented his frustration in an unprecedented Castro-esque diatribe at CPAC. What's next for this embattled President?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier explore the latest developments involving Paul Manafort and Roger Stone. Will these two long-time political operatives spend the rest of their lives in prison - or will Trump pardon them? What is it that is being concealed? What role does Trump himself play in this Russia matter? When will Mueller finally reveal the facts?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier look to the end of the Mueller Probe: what will it be? A benign outcome - or a gigantic superseding indictment linking the Trump Campaign and the Russians in a nefarious conspiracy to alter the outcome of the 2016 Presidential Election?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier analyze two bombshell stories that dropped this week that could change the context of the Mueller inquiry. New York Times revealed the F.B.I opened an inquiry into whether President Trump was secretly working on behalf of Russia. Washington Post reports Trump has prevented everyone, including his staff from knowing details of his conversations with Putin. Also, we learned Trump's former campaign manager Paul Manafort gave polling data to a Russian GRU officer. Is this the week the game changed in the Trump-Russia Investigation?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier look ahead: does Trump survive the multiple investigations facing him? What happens to the stock markets and American economy? Does Fox stick all the way with Trump or do they begin to separate themselves from him?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the political and legal deterioration in all aspects of Trump. Every organization he has ever headed - from his company to his foundation to his campaign to his inaugural committee and now his White House -  is now under criminal investigation. Where is this all headed?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the three recent federal court filings. What have we learned about President Trump's role in two felonies committed during the 2016 campaign? What clues have the filings' redactions given us about where the Mueller Probe is headed? And, is Fox gradually beginning to peel away from their loyalty to President Trump?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier look at how the entire Trump-Russia-Mueller Investigation took an unexpected turn with the surprise plea of Michael Cohen. Why are Trump's own aides now describing him as "spooked" and "distracted"? What shoe is about to drop next?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier explore why Donald Trump's mood has become "dark" and "sour" since the Midterm elections. Is it because Bob Mueller is now setting the agenda and Donald Trump can only react? Is it because he now sees his own perilous legal and political future? Has he figured out that he indeed has No Way Out?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze the “depressed” and seemingly angry mood of Donald Trump since the Midterm elections. What has happened to cause this anger and reported “sour” state since Tuesday? Why the shunning of many allies in Paris and remaining in his hotel room?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze the recent increase in violent incidents and the effect on the November 6th election. Why so much hatred - especially in a growing, healthy economy? What role does Donald Trump play in this poisonous atmosphere? Is the Alt-Right now the "mainstream" of the GOP?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier explore the 2018 version of the Tea Party: the hyper-energized Women's Movement. Is it the "new" Tea Party? Will it provide the energy for the Democrats to re-take the House of Representatives as the 2010 Tea Party powered the GOP back to power?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine how the Kavanaugh Confirmation Hearings are breaking American society, ripping the nation apart, turning more and more people against the Political Class - and may also have a huge impact on the November 6 Mid-Term elections.

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze why Paul Manafort flipped, what this does for the Mueller Investigation - and what a dire legal and political position Donald Trump now finds himself in. This is the biggest event in the Trump-Russia Probe - and the President now finds himself backed into a corner. What will happen next?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the current state of the Trump-Russia investigation, the upcoming November 6th mid-terms and what may happen over the next 60 days. How have things changed since the Manafort convictions, the Cohen plea deal, the immunity deals and the McCain funeral? What is about to happen next?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier look at how tapes - and stories about tapes - are at the center of the Trump presidency: the Nunes Tape, the Omarosa Tapes, and even the alleged Pee Pee Tape. What will be the tipping point? Will tapes bring down yet another president? How crucial is the November 6 midterm election? What is Mueller's plan?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier ask: why was Hope Hicks - months after leaving the White House - on Air Force One Saturday night? And why - the very next morning - did President Trump totally reverse himself about the infamous Trump Tower meeting? Why did his lawyer, Jay Sekulow, also suddenly reverse himself on this meeting? Why has Michael Cohen suddenly stopped communicating with the media? What has happened to bring this all about?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the strategy of Michael Cohen: what is he up to? Does he want a pardon - or a deal with prosecutors? What motivates him: revenge against the Trumps or his own personal resurrection? What does he really know - and is this why Trump is reported to be in a "dark mood"?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier look at the strange and odd behavior of President Trump at the Helsinki Summit - and since. What really happened in that private, two-hour meeting with Putin? Why the secrecy - even from his own staff? Were there agreements reached that we do not know of? Why is Trump now back-tracking on a daily basis? And why is there now going to be a second Trump-Putin Summit in the White House in just two months?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier explore the Trump-Putin Summit in Helsinki: why the private one-on-one meeting? Why the secrecy? What are they up to? Who is calling the shots? Why is Trump at war with NATO and Angela Merkel and Theresa May? What role does the Mueller Probe play in all of this?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze the political ramifications for this November of the coming Supreme Court confirmation fight; the ongoing revolution inside the Democrat Party; the accelerating Mueller probe; and the negative economic and political consequences of Trump's Trade War.

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier analyze Donald Trump's complete 180 degree reversal on his policy to separate immigrant families at the southern border - and then his blatant misrepresentations about what he did and why. What caused his sudden reversal? What does this say about his other controversial positions? Will he retreat on tariffs? Will America's adversaries see weakness behind all the bluster?

Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine the stunning results of the G-7 Summit in Canada followed by the somewhat disappointing, vague-on-specifics meeting with North Korea in Singapore. While trashing Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau as "weak," Trump then praised Kim Jong Un as a "talented leader." What comes next? What surprise does Trump now have planned? Will he fire Mueller? Will Michael Cohen soon be arrested? Will Paul Manafort be put in jail?

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier examine the war Trump is now waging against the law. Pardoning political crimes, claiming that the President can stop any investigation he chooses, and suddenly reversing himself on his own past behavior, Trump sounds like Nixon: "If the President does it, it is legal." Meanwhile the entire Trump Family went to Camp David - minus the First Lady. Why???

Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier explore the overarching influence of money on the Trump Administration's public and private actions.  Are we witnessing corruption on a scale never seen before?

Revolution_The Podcast - May 6/18 Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier examine how Donald Trump directs, runs and dictates every single statement made by his staff and government. This President personally crafts all messages delivered on television by his people - so when Rudy Giuliani speaks he is reading from a script written by Donald Trump. Those who refuse to do so are summarily removed from office or from his legal team. "Loyalty" in his mind is a pre-agreement to do Trump's bidding - and to offer no disagreement. The question: how long can this last before the truth catches up with Trump?

Revolution_The Podcast - April 29/18 Arlene Bynon and John LeBoutillier explore how Michael Cohen is now in a very, very difficult situation. The Justice Department, President Trump - and maybe even the Russians - may all be squeezing him at the same time. Does he take the vow of Omerta? Does he go to prison - and take his secrets with him? Does he flip and become a cooperating witness against the President, a man he once claimed to "love"? Does he put himself at risk of the Russians becoming angry with him? What will he do?

Revolution_The Podcast - April 22/18 Is the President cornered after the Cohen raid? Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier discuss the latest legal perils of President Trump and the dangers they may pose to his presidency. From Michael Avenatti's bold prediction that the President "will not make it through this term" to newly-hired Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani's amazing pledge to get this case wrapped up "within two weeks," the President's case is consuming his Presidency. He has been described by his own staffers as "apoplectic, terrified and panicked."

Revolution_The Podcast - April 8/18 Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier talk to Chris Ruddy, NEWSMAX founder and CEO, and a long-time personal friend of Donald Trump. We discuss the President's mood, life at Mar A Lago, the Mueller Probe, the Wall, Tariffs and what it's like to be the President's friend.

Revolution_The Podcast - March 26/18 Arlene Bynon & John LeBoutillier analyze the growing array of self-inflicted scandals and crises haunting the Trump Administration. From Stormy and possible illegal campaign donations and payoffs to the role of Cambridge Analytica plus the growing Russia investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller to the appointment of the ultra-controversial John Bolton to National Security Advisor. There are surely storm clouds on President Trump's horizon.
