b"On today's 'BradCast':\\xa0 Special coverage of the first GOP Presidential Primary debate of the 2024 campaign, which featured eight candidates, none of them named Donald Trump. But he loomed large over the proceedings anyway. Joining us are HEATHER DIGBY PARTON, award-winning columnist at Salon and Digby's Hullabaloo, and 'DRIFTGLASS' of the weekly 'Professional Left Podcast' for analysis, fact-checking and snark. The debate in Milwaukee, Wisconsin was sponsored by Fox 'News,' held before an audience of booing and cheering Republicans. On the debate stage were Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis; entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy; former Vice President Mike Pence; former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley; former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie; Senator Tim Scott (R-SC); former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson; and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum. Also today: Trump headed to the Fulton County courthouse in Atlanta to be booked on his fourth criminal indictment of the year. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has asked the Court to begin his racketeering trial in October, as the once Grand Ole Party continues its dangerous descent into madness."
