b"On today's 'BradCast':\\xa0 Deadly tornadoes swept through Texas and New Orleans, LA on Tuesday night, the latest in a string of violent, climate change-fueled disasters slamming both states. Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson faced another ridiculous day of outrageous, childish Republican showboating in her Senate confirmation hearings to replace Justice Stephen Breyer on the US Supreme Court. The Court still has no comment on the whereabouts or condition of Justice Clarence Thomas, who was reportedly hospitalized with an illness. Yale School of Management Prof. JEFFREY SONNENFELD explains his comprehensive 'Hall of Shame' List, naming and shaming major international corporations for continuing to do business in Russia following Russian President Putin's barbaric, ongoing invasion of Ukraine. More than 450 American and international corporations have withdrawn partially or fully from Russia, but there is still a substantive number of companies continuing to conduct business there, including a surprising number of major consumer brands.\\xa0 Sonnenfeld discusses the genesis of the list and the impact that it has clearly had in pushing companies to cut ties with Russia. He also addresses the impacts that Western divestment is having on the Russian people, why it's important, and debunks the self-serving spin of companies still clinging to their Russian profits, like the rightwing dark money conglomerate Koch Industries."
