[<i>Audio link to today&#8217;s show posted below.<\/i>]<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump may want to carry out some of that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2016\/08\/16\/politics\/how-us-vets-immigrants-donald-trump-extreme-vetting\/\">&#8220;extreme vetting&#8221;<\/a> he has planned for immigrant refugees hoping to come to the U.S., on his own campaign staff. Credible new reports today reveal that Trump&#8217;s newest campaign chief, Stephen Bannon &#8212; hired after two previous ones were fired &#8212; was <a href=\"nytimes.com\/2016\/08\/26\/us\/politics\/stephen-bannon-trump-campaign.html\">charged with domestic violence<\/a> in the 90s and allegedly threatened retribution against the victim, one of his former wives, for testifying against him.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, it appears that Bannon, previously the chief executive for the far-rightwing Breitbart &#8220;News&#8221; site, also may have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2016\/aug\/26\/steve-bannon-florida-registered-vote-donald-trump\">committed voter registration fraud<\/a> and possibly tax evasion, by registering to vote in a state where he doesn&#8217;t appear to have ever lived. (Since finishing today&#8217;s show, the <i>Guardian<\/i> has now posted a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2016\/aug\/26\/steve-bannon-florida-voter-registration-home-breitbart-writer?CMP=share_btn_tw\">second story<\/a> to report that, since their first exclusive, Bannon has now moved his Florida voter registration to a different residence.) <\/p>\n<p>If the new evidence reported today holds up, Bannon&#8217;s case, as I detail on today&#8217;s program, would be just the latest example of another very high profile Republican who appears to have committed the type of election-related fraud that Republicans disingenuously claim Dems are carrying out, and for which the GOP continues to enact voting restrictions that disproportionately block minority voters at the polls.<\/p>\n<p>As discussed on today&#8217;s program, we have covered, at <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/CoulterFraud\">The BRAD BLOG<\/a>, on <i>The BradCast<\/i>, and in many other publications, in great detail and documentation over the past decade or more, the many cases of <i>actual<\/i>, <i>well-documented<\/i> voter and voter registration fraud carried out by the likes of GOP superstars like <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/CoulterFraud\">Ann Coulter<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/?p=9083\">Mitt Romney<\/a>, the former <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/?p=9105\">Sec. of State of Indiana<\/a>, and a host of <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/?p=9467\"><i>many<\/i> other high-profile Republicans<\/a>. That long list includes many who have, themselves, long called for &#8220;anti-fraud&#8221; measures meant only to make it harder for <i>certain<\/i> perfectly legal voters (Democratic-leaning ones) to participate in U.S. elections.<\/p>\n<p>And, as if Trump&#8217;s &#8220;extreme vetting&#8221; for his own campaign staff hasn&#8217;t yet failed spectacularly enough by now, we end today&#8217;s show with still one more brand new example!  Yes, it&#8217;s an epic romp through recent historical GOP hypocrisy on today&#8217;s <i>BradCast<\/i>.
