'BradCast' 11/28/2023 ('Democracy on a Knife's Edge': Far-right electoral victories in Argentina, Holland; Trump threatens Insurrection Act)

On today's 'BradCast': The warning signs for democracy continue to blink bright red. Ultra-conservative former federal Judge Michael Luttig warns: 'American democracy [is] on a knife's edge...in greater peril today than it's ever been in American history,' and argues that a second term for the former President would be 'catastrophic.' The warning sirens for democracy are coming from abroad, as well, after Argentina and The Netherlands elect far-right extremists leaders. Donald Trump continues to ratchet up his far-right authoritarian threats, including promising domestic deployment of the U.S. military under the Insurrection Act, if voters are foolish enough to allow him a second term. President Biden invoked the Defense Production Act to boost domestic manufacturing of super-efficient, all-electric heat pump technology to save consumers and businesses money on energy costs and reduce indoor air pollution. Naturally Fox 'News' is furious about it. Plus Desi Doyen has our latest 'Green News Report.'
