'BradCast' 5/16/2024 (Guest: Campaign finance expert Craig Holman on shocking new FEC disclosure rule)

On today's 'BradCast':  The stolen-and-packed US Supreme Court issued two unusual rulings on Thursday. The rightwing supermajority upheld Louisiana's new, fairer US House district voting maps that add a second Black-majority voting district in the state, but the liberal justices dissented for critical reasons. In a 7-2 ruling, the Court rejected an effort by the sleazy payday lending industry to kill the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). CRAIG HOLMAN, veteran government ethics lobbyist at non-profit Public Citizen, explains the historic vote at the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on a shocking proposed rule to gut what little remains of our campaign finance laws by allowing all campaign donors to evade campaign cash disclosure requirements. Holman explains who was behind the proposal that sought to deprive voters of critical election information, what happens next, and another proposal to regulate the surge of A.I.-generated deepfake audio and video of candidates in the run-up to the critical 2024 election.
