Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns.

Brad is first joined by Hope Frye, an internationally recognized immigration lawyer focused on disadvantaged populations, especially women and children.

The two discuss the terrible political stunt that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis orchestrated to essentially kidnap migrant families through deception in order to fly them to Martha's Vineyard and then abandon them there, as well as the bigger point it also makes as to how the GOP treats immigrants.

During the second half of the show, Brad is joined by John T. Bennett, Editor-at-Large at CQ Roll Call, 'the source for news on Capitol Hill since 1955.'

They preview the hearings that will be held this coming Wednesday by the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th Capitol insurrection.
