On today’s BradCast<\/i><\/a>, guest hosted by my own self, Angie Coiro of In Deep Radio, we peer over to Poland to see Donny still on the election trail – reliving his November victory for a whole new crowd bused in just for the occasion. He took the time, too, to remind everyone it’s us versus the boogeymen. <\/p>\n

The Election Commission has acquired yet another sworn enemy of voting – Hans von Spakovsky, who once pulled a sock-puppet act on law journal articles, endorsing voter suppression under a pseudonym. And the League of Women Voters released a full-blast denouncement of Kris Kobach, de facto head of Trump’s “voter fraud” commission.<\/p>\n

That takes us right to returning guest Ari Berman<\/b>, author of Give Us The Ballot<\/a>. He’s added to his excellent introduction to Kobach<\/a> at The New York Times Magazine with a more encouraging post<\/a> at The Nation.<\/p>\n

Then David Atkins<\/b> builds on his Washington Monthly<\/a> deconstruction of what happened with California’s effort toward single payer. He’s got some very specific ideas about why the GOP will cross the public to push AHCA: because they don’t care.<\/p>\n

Then a follow-up on this week’s earlier story on the “Donny Trumps CNN” wrestling video, and the anti-semitic rants of the man who created it. Turns out the by virtue of finding that (still anonymous) man’s Star of David-emblazoned CNN photos, journalist Jared Yates Sexton<\/b><\/a> became a target of online Nazis.<\/p>\n

Finally, a plea to Gloria Allred: how about you take on this misogynistic obscenity<\/a> on Capitol Hill?<\/p>\n
