‘Uncharted and Unprecedented…The Process Has Broken Down’: ‘BradCast’ 9/6/2018
Everything — EVERYTHING — is not normal right now. From an imploding Presidency to the GOP’s unprecedented withholding of documents for a SCOTUS nominee, to the more “normal” abnormalities we’ve become shamefully accustomed to, like mass shootings, election fraud and voter suppression in advance of another huge election and, yes, a global climate in crisis. […]

Gingrich: Elections ‘Favor Billionaires over Middle Class’ (So Wait Until You See His ‘Solution’!)
Oh, the irony of Newt Gingrich never ends… Newt Gingrich says all the attention to be paid in Las Vegas by GOP officials and wannabe presidents this weekend to billionaire campaign donor Sheldon Adelson-a patron of Gingrich’s 2012 White House bid-is something that won’t go away until genuine campaign finance reform occurs. “Whether it’s the […]

Republican U.S. House Staffer Pleads ‘No Contest’ to 5 Election Fraud Counts
No doubt Fox ‘News’ is going wall-to-wall with this today, so you’ve got no need for us to tell you about it, right? … What? They’re not? Huh. How strange.

Republican U.S. House Staffers Indicted for Felony Election Fraud as GOP Fraud Epidemic Continues
Given disenfranchising polling place Photo ID restriction laws Republicans have enacted in nearly a dozen states over the past year, you’d think there was an epidemic of Democratic “voter fraud” in this nation.
