'BradCast' 1/9/2020 (No 'imminent attack' planned before Soleimani assassination; Wildly disturbing study on brand new computerized voting systems)

b"On today's 'BradCast': The fallout continues from Donald Trump's assassination of top Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, with members of both the House and Senate, both Democratic and Republican, blasting the Trump Administration for failing to provide any evidence of an "imminent attack" which might have legally justified Trump's targeted killing in classified briefings. Without evidence, Trump's action likely both domestic and international law, but will Democrats bring another article of impeachment over it? U.S. officials say they believe a Ukrainian Airlines passenger jet that crashed after takeoff from the airport in Tehran, hours after Iran's retaliatory strike on a US-Iraqi base, was likely mistakenly shot down by an Iranian missile -- underscoring how Trump's actions have not made Americans safer. In election security news, a new, landmark study shows that new, 100 percent unverifiable touchscreen computer Ballot Marking Devices (BMDs) now proliferating across the country, are "extremely unsafe" and vulnerable to undetectable hacking. The study found that more than 93 percent of voters failed to notice that their vote had been changed by the computer. We explain the study's disturbing findings and what you can do to avoid having your vote lost to a touchscreen Ballot Marking Device in your home jurisdiction. Finally, Desi Doyen has our latest 'Green News Report', with some good news (coal plant shutdowns have save some 26,000 American lives!), scary news (new findings that Trump's EPA and FEMA are not prepared for disasters) and terrible news (the Trump Administration is announcing a new rule that would do away with most environmental impact studies before construction of major federal projects, such as roads, bridges and even oil pipelines!)..."
