'BradCast' 12/21/2017 ('How the Trump Stole America')
b"As Christmas nears, why not become even more of a pariah to the rest of the world, by literally threatening friends and foes alike at the United Nations over Trump's unpopular plan to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to the divided city of Jerusalem?\\xa0 That's what UN Ambassador Nikki Haley did on Thursday, and it wasn't taken kindly -- by friend or foe. The move was just the latest by this Administration to cause America's standing in the world to plummet even further since taking office. But good news for Americans who favor health care, as the Administration is forced to admit that sign-ups for the Affordable Care Act ('Obamacare') this year were nearly as high as they were last year under President Obama, in spite of the Trump Administration cutting the Open Enrollment period in half. Another completely unqualified nominee for a lifetime appointment to the federal bench has withdrawn, plus a busy 'Green News Report' with discouraging news for the pristine Alaska National Wildlife Refuge and victims of natural disasters in the passage of the GOP tax bill, but some encouraging news elsewhere in the world. And, finally, since it's Brad and Desi's last show before Christmas (Angie Coiro sits in for Friday's show with an exclusive interview with AL GORE!), it seems only fitting to end with a dramatic holiday reading of 'How the Trump Stole America'..."
