I can’t believe we’re covering any of this. But, on today’s BradCast<\/i><\/a>, we’re sounding twin alarms about the President of the United State’s explicit threats of wars against both Venezuela<\/b> and…yes…Chicago<\/b>. There must really<\/i> be some bad shit on him in those Epstein Files! [Audio link to full shows follows this summary.<\/i>]\n

You would think that when Donald Trump<\/b> posts on social media<\/a> on Saturday morning that “Chicago [is] about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR” with a photo of him in battle fatigues in front of attack helicopters, a burning Chicago skyline and the phrase “Chipocalypse Now” in the style of 1979’s Vietnam epic Apocalypse Now<\/i>, that the nation’s major newspapers might report on it in their print editions on Sunday. But, nope<\/a>. Apparently a threat by the U.S. President to invade another major U.S. city no longer even merits a notice in either the New York Times<\/i> or Washington Post<\/i> the next day.<\/p>\n

Moreover, you’d think ten U.S. warships ordered down to Central America within missile range of Venezuela — just days after Trump violated all<\/i> international (and U.S.) law by bombing a speed boat<\/a> he claims to have been filled with “narco-terrorists” carrying “massive amounts of drugs” (there is no public evidence of either) that we’d see screaming ALL CAPS front page headlines about a pending U.S. war in Central America across all<\/i> of the nation’s papers. I guess blatant war crimes<\/a> admitted to by a President of the United States and the threat of an impending U.S. attack on yet another sovereign nation just doesn’t spark the outrage from the “liberal media” that it used.<\/p>\n

So, here we are. The guy who those same papers described as an “anti-war” Presidential candidate is still playing them all like chumps as he threatens to unleash new wars both foreign and domestic.<\/p>\n

Whatever is actually in those Epstein Files that he is refusing to release — after promising to do so while running for President — must be really really<\/i> bad for him. And while everyone is looking for just two more Republicans with the courage to sign on to a Discharge Petition to force a vote in the U.S. House on the release of the criminal files on sex traffickers and Trump pedophile pals Jeffrey Epstein<\/b> and Ghislaine Maxwell<\/b>, perhaps they should look at the Democrats who are likely to win<\/a> two upcoming Special Elections this month<\/i> instead. Signatures from those two Democrats, once seated in the House (unless somehow blocked by Republicans from doing so), would be enough to trigger that vote. Could be a very interesting month.<\/p>\n

We cover all<\/i> of that and more on today’s show, and open the phones to a bunch of listeners with their own thoughts on all of this madness. <\/p>\n

Please tune in and let me know if you<\/i> can make any more sense of this moment than I can. I welcome all the help and good sense you can offer. God knows ain’t any Trump supporters calling in to defend him anymore. So make of that<\/i> what you will…<\/p>\n
