b"On today's 'BradCast':\\xa0 Another sorry tale of yet another federal 'watchdog' agency seemingly captured by the corporate industry that it is supposed to be overseeing and regulating \\u2013 and this time, democracy itself is at stake. But first: Breaking news that a US Capitol Police officer was killed and a second critically injured when an assailant rammed a car into security barriers, in the most serious threat incident at the Capitol since the rightwing insurrection in January. Then: election integrity and security advocate SUSAN GREENHALGH, Senior Advisor on Election Security at Free Speech For People, explains the organization's new lawsuit seeking answers from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC), the federal agency that is doing a woefully inadequate job overseeing the nation's voting system security standards. Since its inception, the EAC has largely been captured by the private voting system vendors they are supposed to be regulating. Greenhalgh explains the shocking failure of the EAC to protect election security, and how it has misled the public regarding the dangers of modems in computerized voting machines that can connect to the internet, which cybersecurity experts warn could be used to introduce malware, disrupt elections, or change results. FSFP is asking why EAC commissioners met in secret with voting system vendors, altered new security standards to again allow dangerously unsecure wireless communication devices in the nation's voting systems, and more.
