Summary
On today's 'BradCast': Trump's ceasefire with Iran is failing, as predicted. Maine's Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner has withdrawn from the race. A federal judge ordered Donald Trump to pay writer E. Jean Carroll the $5.8 million he owes her after being found guilty of sexual abuse. LISA GRAVES, former Deputy Asst. U.S. Attorney General, discusses major rulings handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court's corrupted rightwing supermajority this term that broke with decades of precedent and relied on invented doctrines to achieve their preferred political outcomes. Graves explains Chief Justice John Roberts' decades-long agenda to increase presidential power; roll back voting rights, civil rights, and regulations that rein in corporate power and billionaires influencing elections; critical court reforms; why Trump attorney Todd Blanche must not be confirmed as U.S. Attorney General; and much more.
