'BradCast' 3/8/2024 (Encore: Corrupted SCOTUS' stunning decision to hear Trump 'Immunity' case)

Original airdate 2-29-2024. On today's 'BradCast':  Brad is back after taking a few sick days, just in time to wrangle the fire hose of historic, breaking news this week. The rightwing supermajority on the U.S. Supreme Court delayed for weeks before finally announcing they would hear oral arguments on Donald Trump's ridiculous claim that presidents have 'absolute immunity' for any crimes they committed while in office - - an absurd claim unanimously rejected by all lower courts. The hearing, set for late April, paused Trump's criminal trial for trying to steal the 2020 election, making it increasingly likely he will not stand trial before the 2024 election. A New York state appeals court denied Trump's attempt to negotiate a lower bond amount to avoid seizure of his assets to pay $454 million penalty he faces for a decade of massive fraud via his corrupt real estate company. Award-winning opinion columnist HEATHER DIGBY PARTON of Salon and 'DRIFTGLASS' of The Professional Left Podcast, bring insight, analysis, context, and perspective on these key, historic events.
