Today on The BradCast, another police shooting, another heat record smashed, another set of polling data show another tied Presidential race, and callers ring in with questions for the candidates in advance of next Monday’s debate. [Audio link posted below.]

Protests turned violent overnight in Charlotte, North Carolina, following another police shooting of an African-American. That, just days after video evidence of another police shooting of an unarmed black man with his hands up in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Earth smashes yet another heat record for the 16th straight month, as Donald Trump takes the lead for the first time in a major national poll.

Meanwhile, in advance of the first Presidential debate at Hofstra University next Monday, Hillary Clinton’s campaign vows to fact check her opponent and Trump works the refs by already declaring (whining) that it will all be “unfair” to him somehow. We open the phones to find out what BradCast listeners would like moderator Lester Holt of NBC News to ask either Trump or Clinton or both on Monday night.

Finally, Desi Doyen joins us for the latest Green News Report, as the U.N. meets and tries to “Trump proof” the landmark international Paris climate accord in advance of the U.S. election…

    How about some basic questions about The Constitution, the founding document candidates swear to defend and uphold, such as: how many articles are there; how many amendments; summarize the first three articles; which article forbids a religious test for public office; which amendment forbids cruel and unusual punishment; and finally, how many times does the word ‘god’ appear in the document.

    How come another Soros Funded and Organized event has turned violent resulting in more dead Americans, when will you arrest him and put the NSA on his networks?

    How come on the street there’s no racism, but then when there’s a peaceful protest, it’s Fuck the White Devil.

    How come some people in dhs, and state department aren’t in gitmo for creating ISIS and letting them in our borders where domestic terror attacks have happened and Americans have died?

    How come another Soros Funded and Organized event has turned violent resulting in more dead Americans, when will you arrest him and put the NSA on his networks?

    Would you please be more specific? Our should we just guess what you’re trying to say. Soros funded and organized an event that killed Americans? The NSA on his networks? Please spell it out, otherwise it’s nonsense.

    How come on the street there’s no racism, but then when there’s a peaceful protest, it’s Fuck the White Devil.

    How come you haven’t left your house? Get out more often. The truth is out there.

    How come some people in dhs, and state department aren’t in gitmo for creating ISIS and letting them in our borders where domestic terror attacks have happened and Americans have died?

    The Department of Human Services and The State Department created ISIS? That’s funny but I suspect your humor is unintentional. ISIS was born out of the power vacuum that resulted after the Bush administration invaded Iraq, destroyed the entire country and executed its leader. I thought this was common knowledge.

    And the vast majority of domestic terrorism is not caused by people named Amir or Ahmed, but by people named Smith, Jones or Billy-Ray.

    I could get more sources to back what I’m saying, but let’s let the right wing publication the Washington Times tell it for the time being:
