On today’s BradCast, we catch up on a number of items in the news, almost all of which underscore a rigged system in the U.S. and the need to unrig it.
From the new effort by more than 100 bipartisan state Attorneys General to see former AL Gov. Don Siegelman (D) turned political prisoner receive a pardon from President Obama; to the obscene amount of corporate and billionaire cash now pouring into U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan’s Republican campaign machine; to new lawsuits filed in Arizona by the DNC (with both the Clinton and Sanders camps joining), as well as by transpartisans charging voter suppression in the state’s disastrous March 22nd primary; to remaining concerns about the results of recent Presidential nominating contests around the country.
All of those stories, including the increasingly loud insistence (whether supported by the evidence or not) from Sanders and Trump supporters who believe that both major political parties have “rigged” the Presidential nomination selection process against their favored candidates, underscore how the broken U.S. system desperately needs fixing.
So what to do about it? Some of our listeners have ideas, even ones I may or may not agree with. All of that and much more, including our latest Green News Report, on today’s program…

Karl Rove is in Salt Lake City right now, meeting with governor, (Diebold), Herbert, trying to mess with our elections.
Come on Obama, if you really care about free and fair elections, this has to be exposed.
Just watched this 27 minute video, and now I think I know Hillary Clinton.
