I twisted Chip Matthews arm into sitting in with me for 2 full hours this morning so I could have someone in-studio to bounce a bunch of different topics off of and I believe we created some radio gold this morning!! 1- I saw a "Let's talk Rankin County" Facebook group post about 2 women arguing because one of the cut in line in front of the other one in the Pearl Wal-Mart grocery p/u line. This spawned a conversation about how lazy we've gotten, we're literally fighting on the internet about someone cutting the other person off in line instead of getting out of our vehicles to fight in the line where the disrespect happened. 2- I got out and held signs and waived at Brandon citizens on behalf of Mayoral candidate Fred Shanks this weekend and was shocked at how nasty some of the current mayors supporters were to us, flipping us off and cussing at us to support their guy was interesting to say the least (keep in mind the majority of our group were women 40 & older so it just wreaked of disrespect) 3- The conversation about Brandon politics turned into a conversation about voter I.D. laws in Mississippi and I was blown away to find out Chip's claims about Mississippi voters being allowed to vote without an I.D. as long as they brought it back within 5 business days and then finding out that you can vote with an expired I.D. that's been expired for 10 years. 4. Over the weekend an illegal immigrant was arrested in Brookhaven, Mississippi for destroying a Tesla with a set of wire cutters at a Wal-Mart in what I consider an act of political terrorism. 5- Ridgeland, Ms. Police Chief Brian Meyers is upset with the changes in PERS to new hires, Chip and I discuss why we disagree with his point and take a dive into why PERS is bad for everyone else not in it.

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Hal Singer, economics professor at the University of Utah, to discuss Trump's recent tariff threats. Then, she speaks with Cea Weaver, tenant organizer with Housing Justice For All and director of the New York State Tenant Bloc, to discuss the rent freeze campaign the organizations are working on. First, Emma runs through updates on the US' devastating jobs numbers as Trump plans to cut more federal workers, DOJ's threat to USAID workers, the dropping stock market, Trump's attack on the DOE, the GOP's attack on Medicaid, the censuring of Al Green, Senate Dems' decision to overturn Biden's crypto regulations, Trump's attacks on Ukrainian refugees and Gaza, Smotrich's visit to Washington, and Barnes and Noble's big labor wins, before watching James Comer attempt to discipline Ayanna Pressley for… submitting evidence about migrant lawfulness. Professor Hal Singer then joins, jumping right into an assessment of the “chaos and anxiety” spurred by the Trump Administration's economic and employment policies of destroying the federal government, and the long-term ramifications of straight up deleting financial protections for Americans, before shifting to the topic of Trump's indiscriminate tariffs, and his guiding strategy in all negotiations (domestic or foreign) of all stick-no carrot. After expanding on the shady relationship between Trump and his Big Tech crypto backers – particularly in the wake of an announced crypto reserve – and the dearth of economic theory to back his ongoing agenda, Professor Singer wraps up by highlighting the Democratic Party's need to return to policies centered on uplifting the working class' economic and labor power. Next, Cea Weaver and Emma dive deep into the ongoing push for a rent freeze for NYC's nearly one million rent-stabilized units, walking through the role it has already played among the Democratic primary in this year's Mayoral race, with myriad candidates coming out in support of a data-backed plan to reverse the tide of overwhelming rent inflation that has been, and threatens to continue to push out native, working-class New Yorkers. After expanding on the diverse and expansive coalition of constituents involved in this fight, and exploring how, exactly, rent-stabilized units are hit by rent inflation (hint: Andrew Cuomo), Weaver wraps up with a final assessment of the current state of the NYC Mayoral race, and what a ranked ballot could look like. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Matt Binder as they work through an early assessment of 2028 Democratic hopefuls in the wake of Gov. Gavin Newsome's insane decision to debut his podcast via an amicable interview with Charlie Kirk, Kowalski from Nebraska gives an in-depth agricultural and economic update, and John from Montreal unpacks the torpedoing trust and approval of the United States abroad. The MR Team also watches noted crypto hawk Kirsten Gillibrand refuse to condemn Andrew Cuomo, and dissects the censuring of Al Green with ten Democrats voting across party lines, plus, your calls and IMs!

Chris Cuomo addresses his brother Andrew Cuomo's decision to run for mayor of New York City, explaining why he won't be covering the race on NewsNation—but also why he won't stay silent. He opens up about their relationship, the scrutiny that comes with public service, and the double standards in media when it comes to political ties. Cuomo reflects on how growing up in a political family shaped his career, why Andrew's candidacy is different from past campaigns, and how he is handling his brother's entrance into the mayor's race.

Big Jay Oakerson's new crowd work special "Them" is out now on YouTube and it's fantastic! The gang is all back in their SXM New York studios after a week of forced vacation. Mayoral candidate Corinne Fisher's campaign manager texted Bobby about what they heard on the Bonfire. Comic Krystyna Hutchinson posted a sexy video for support of Corinne. Jay requested a sex term called JOI. He then played videos of JOI so everyone could understand what he was referring to. The guys had a photo shoot earlier in the day so Jay brought phallic candy to spice up the session. *To hear the full show to go www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more FOLLOW THE CREW ON SOCIAL MEDIA: @thebonfiresxm @louisjohnson @christinemevans @bigjayoakerson @robertkellylive @louwitzkee @jjbwolfSubscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of The Bonfire ad-free and a whole week early.  Start a free trial now on Apple Podcasts or by visiting siriusxm.com/podcastsplus.
