'BradCast' 9/27/2023 (Guest: Congressional historian Norm Ornstein on Republican government shutdown)
b"On today's 'BradCast':\\xa0 In a blistering summary judgment, New York Arthur Engoron ruled the evidence shows that Donald Trump, his two eldest sons, the Trump Organization, and two top executives committed eye-popping levels of bank, tax and insurance fraud.\\xa0 The ruling in the New York State Attorney General's civil case details stunning levels of fraud, sanctions Trump's attorneys for using 'patently false' arguments, and orders independent receivership to 'manage the dissolution' of many of Trump's properties in the state. The Writers Guild strike is officially over and late-night shows will return to the airwaves first.\\xa0 House Republicans failed again to strike a deal amongst themselves to fund the federal government and avoid a costly shutdown, very now likely to begin this weekend. Congressional historian NORM ORNSTEIN of the American Enterprise Institute explains the history of Republican government shutdowns (all shutdowns have occurred when Republicans control the House), their widespread negative economic impacts and the possible endgame ahead, and debunks Republicans' many, many false claims."
