On today's 'BradCast':\xa0 Exclusive breaking news -- according to the months-long, so-called 'audit' and hand-count of the 2020 election in Maricopa County (Phoenix), Arizona, Joe Biden firmly defeated Donald Trump, and actually received more votes than Trump. The full, final report by the far-right, partisan, conspiracy-promoting Florida company Cyber Ninjas, hired by the GOP state Senate to conduct the exercise, will be released on Friday. It confirms the original tally by Maricopa Co. elections officials, and finds that Biden's vote total was actually larger by about 100 votes. The report also confirms the official results of the U.S. Senate race, showing that Democrat Mark Kelly won over then-Republican Senator Martha McSally. An initial, quick review of the Cyber Ninja's report indicates they found zero evidence of fraud that might have altered the results in either the county or the state. What is clear, however, is that those who claimed that the results were manipulated were lying. If the Arizona findings are replicated elsewhere, Republicans are on the verge of wasting a lot more taxpayer money as they race to mount similar, taxpayer-funded audit theatre shows across the country. Also today: Congressional Republicans are once again holding the nation hostage, dangerously threatening to force a default on the good faith and credit of the U.S. Government with their vow to block an increase in the nation's debt limit, which pays for stuff already approved by Congress long ago. Republicans are also threatening to force a full government shut down, as well, causing havoc and potentially costing the U.S. economy trillions. Why?\xa0 Because they can.\xa0 Plus Desi Doyen has our latest 'Green News Report.'
