'BradCast' 8/3/2021 (New York is Going Through Some Things....and Other Dark News of the Day)

08-03-2021 (53.44 MB)

On today's 'BradCast':  New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is resisting growing calls for his resignation after New York Attorney General's investigation concludes he sexually harassed at least eleven staffers and illegally retaliated against one. New York City's outgoing Mayor Bill DeBlasio announces new program requiring proof of COVID vaccination to enter indoor leisure venues and restaurants, the first major U.S. city to do so. As the deadly and highly transmissible Delta variant of the coronavirus wreaks havoc across the nation, hospitalized anti-vaxxers are regretting their vaccine refusal. Florida and Texas now account for one third of all COVID cases in the U.S., with Florida leading the nation in hospitalizations and deaths, after their Republican governors prohibited businesses and local officials from reinstating indoor mask mandates and vaccine requirements. Louisiana's Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards reinstates indoor mask mandate, as Dr. Catherine O'Neal pleads with residents to get vaccinated and wear masks because the state's hospitals are running out of capacity to treat non-COVID emergencies such as heart attacks, strokes and car accidents. Anger grows among the vaccinated population as new reporting suggests all Americans may need to get a third vaccine shot due to the rapid spread of the Delta variant among the voluntarily unvaccinated. Also today: a new, pro-Trump 'free speech' social media network is reportedly being flooded by pro-ISIS propaganda and pornography. Plus Desi Doyen has our latest 'Green News Report.'
