After years of blatantly <a href=\"http:\/\/www2.ljworld.com\/news\/2015\/feb\/10\/prosecutors-question-kobach-claims-voter-fraud-kan\/\">lying about &#8220;voter fraud&#8221;<\/a> in the state (which we document in detail), he has now been given prosecutorial authority by the state&#8217;s Republican Governor to personally clean up his <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/?p=8202\">pretend scourge<\/a> in Kansas.<\/p>\n<p>His first act? Setting up a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sos.ks.gov\/elections\/voterfraud\/default.aspx\">webpage<\/a> to allow the public to report <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sos.ks.gov\/elections\/voterfraud\/collectdata.aspx\">instances of fraud<\/a> on the SoS website (since he&#8217;s been unable to find any on his own during his five years in office since being elected to &#8220;Stop Voter Fraud!&#8221;). But, conveniently, he&#8217;s left off the option for the public to report on Kansas&#8217; much more pressing problem: voter <i>suppression<\/i> &#8212; especially by guys like Kobach, who, since taking office, has <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/?p=10295\">successfully blocked<\/a> tens of thousands of legal Kansas voters from being <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/?p=10763\">able to vote<\/a> in state elections.<\/p>\n<p>Then, former FBI Special Agent, 9\/11 whistleblower and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wanttoknow.info\/021222time.personofyear\">TIME Magazine&#8217;s 2002 Person of the Year<\/a>, Coleen Rowley joins us to explain why Dylann Roof, the alleged Charleston, SC shooter and avowed racist, was charged with hate crimes this week, but not terrorism. What&#8217;s the difference between terrorism and hate crimes? And does the SC shooting now prove (once again) that the term &#8220;terrorism&#8221; has become little more than <a href=\"https:\/\/firstlook.org\/theintercept\/2015\/06\/19\/refusal-call-charleston-shootings-terrorism-shows-meaningless-propaganda-term\/\">meaningless propaganda<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>The term &#8220;terrorism&#8221;, Rowley tells me, is now &#8220;uniquely set for Muslims, or for Arab nations that we have had agendas with in the past. The media is primed for that message.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The definitions have a propaganda value, but they are not clear, and they&#8217;re not good for purposes of law enforcement at all because they&#8217;re not even making sense. In fact, I think that&#8217;s all they are serving now &#8212; as propaganda,&#8221; she explains, before citing one of her favorite quotes: &#8220;A poor man&#8217;s war is terrorism. A rich man&#8217;s terrorism is war.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Desi Doyen joins us for the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/GreenNews.BradBlog.com\"><i>Green News Report<\/i><\/a> with the climate position of the latest entrant into the 2016 GOP race and how a Democratic candidate has made Fox &#8220;News&#8221; heads explode by telling the truth about the relationship between climate change and the rise of ISIS&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><a href=\"https:\/\/BradBlog.com\/audio\/BradCast_BradFriedman_KrisKobachFraud_ColeenRowleyTerrorism_072315.mp3\">Download MP3<\/a> or listen online below&#8230;<\/i><br \/>\n[audio:http:\/\/bradblog.com\/audio\/BradCast_BradFriedman_KrisKobachFraud_ColeenRowleyTerrorism_072315.mp3]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><center><b>* * *<\/b><\/center><i>While we post <a href=\"https:\/\/BradBlog.com\/BradCast\"><\/i>The BradCast<i><\/a> here every day, and you can hear it across all of our great affiliate stations and websites, to automagically get new episodes as soon as they&#8217;re available sent right to your computer or personal device, subscribe for free at <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/the-bradcast-w-brad-friedman\/id803467610\">iTunes<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/stitcher.com\/s\/player.php?fid=25838&#038;src=psl\">Stitcher<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/tunein.com\/radio\/The-BradCast-with-Brad-Friedman-p477565\/\">TuneIn<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/podcastgen\/bradcast\/feed.xml\">our native RSS feed<\/a>!<\/i><center><i><b>* * *<\/b><\/i><\/center><center><\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr style=\"background: blue; color:white;\">\n<td width=\"50%\"><center><span class=\"footnote\"><b>MONTHLY BRAD BLOG SUBSCRIPTION<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td width=\"50%\"><center><span class=\"footnote\"><b>ONE-TIME DONATION<\/b><\/span><\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid blue;\"><center><\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\" style=\"margin-top:-3em; margin-bottom:2em;text-align:center;\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"cmd\" value=\"_s-xclick\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"hosted_button_id\" value=\"9PMSTMCJK9B3E\"><\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"on0\" value=\"Choose monthly amount...\">Choose monthly amount&#8230;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><select name=\"os0\"><option value=\"$10\">$10 : $10.00 USD &#8211; monthly<\/option><option value=\"$20\">$20 : $20.00 USD &#8211; monthly<\/option><option value=\"$50\">$50 : $50.00 USD &#8211; monthly<\/option><option value=\"$100\">$100 : $100.00 USD &#8211; monthly<\/option><\/select> <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"currency_code\" value=\"USD\"><input type=\"image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_subscribe_LG.gif\" border=\"0\" name=\"submit\" alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\"><\/form>\n<p><\/center><\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid blue;\"><center><\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\" style=\"margin-top:0em; margin-bottom:2em;text-align:center;\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"cmd\" value=\"_s-xclick\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"hosted_button_id\" value=\"K5A5LX7J6WTHQ\"><input type=\"image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_donateCC_LG.gif\" border=\"0\" name=\"submit\" alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"footnote\">(Snail mail support to <b>&#8220;Brad Friedman, 7095 Hollywood Blvd., #594 Los Angeles, CA 90028<\/b>&#8221; always welcome too!)<\/div>\n<p><\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A big BradCast today!&#8230; First up, Kansas Sec. of State Kris Kobach (R) continues his years-long phony &#8220;voter fraud&#8221; crusade, but now he&#8217;s been given more authority to cause even more damage to the fundamental right to vote!
