'BradCast' 9/25/2018 (Guest: Eric Boehlert of ShareBlue)
Happy National Voter Registration Day! Today is a great day to register to vote, help someone else register, or check your registration. Today is also a great day, apparently, for the world to laugh at the President of the United States, as they literally did at the United Nations General Assembly. Trump also took the time to attack and dismiss two women who have accused his U.S. Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, of sexual assault.\xa0 Kavanaugh, who has said "the Supreme Court must never be viewed as a partisan institution," took to the rightwing Fox 'News' air waves for an unprecedented softball interview.\xa0 The all-white, all-male Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee have refused to reveal the name of the woman they have hired to ask questions of Kavanaugh's accuser, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, on their behalf in scheduled testimony before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, and have scheduled a committee vote on Kavanaugh's nomination the very next day, on Friday. We are also still barreling toward a potential constitutional crisis as early as Thursday, when Trump is scheduled to meet at the White House with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, thanks in no small part to the pretext for firing Rosenstein -- and perhaps Mueller, shortly thereafter -- offered up by misleading reporting by the New York Times. Media critic, author and political writer ERIC BOEHLERT of ShareBlue discusses both of these stories, where they are headed, and what the hell is wrong with the New York Times.
