'BradCast' 12/26/2025 (Encore: Rightwing SCOTUS Majority May Gut Last of Voting Rights Act, with Joshua A. Douglas, Univ. of KY, and David Daley of FairVote)
12-26-2025 (53.63 MB)
Encore: original airdate 10-16-2025. On today's 'BradCast': The corrupted rightwing supermajority on the US Supreme Court appears poised to kill off Section 2 of the landmark Voting Rights Act of 1965, which barred racially discriminatory election practices. Election law expert JOSHUA A. DOUGLAS, of the University of Kentucky, and FairVote's redistricting expert DAVID DALEY explain the twisted history of a case heard by the court in October, Louisiana v. Callais, in which White voters in the state allege that a voting map allowing for a second Black-majority voting district - reflecting the state's Black population – amounts to unconstitutional racial discrimination against Whites. Douglas and Daley discuss the stakes, why Sec. 2 is still necessary, what happens next, and much more. Plus Desi Doyen has our new 'Green News Report.'
