This week’s Ring of Fire, hosted by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Mike Papantonio and David Bender:

Saturdays at 3 o’clock Eastern, rebroadcasts Sunday nights at 8 pm Eastern

 

This week on Ring of Fire, former Secretary of Labor and best-selling author Robert Reich will be joining us to talk about the need to break up the too big to fail banks, and why doing so will be necessary to put our economy back on track.

 

Salon columnist Glenn Greenwald will be joining us to talk about the upcoming Supreme Court vacancy, and why the current front runner to fill that slot will actually help push the Court even further to the right.

 

Comedian Matt Filipowicz will be here to tell us why Southerners are so hung up on honoring the Confederacy, and why they choose to ignore what the Confederate states really represented – Slavery and oppression.

 

And as always, we’ll be looking at all the news that the corporate-controlled media refuses to cover.
