b"On today's 'BradCast':\\xa0 What did people think was going to happen after years of Republican lies about 'rigged elections'?\\xa0 A failed Republican state assembly candidate who is a Trump-supporting election denier was arrested in Albuquerque, NM as the ringleader in a series of mysterious shootings into the homes or offices of elected Democratic officials.

In the U.S. House, Republicans are planning to crash the nation's (and world's) economy by refusing to increase the U.S. debt limit this year, which would cause the first-ever default of U.S. Government debt payments and lead to a global recession or depression.
