On today's 'The BradCast': The federal D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a unanimous ruling, rejected the absurd argument made by disgraced ex-president Donald Trump that he is immune from prosecution for any crimes he committed while in office. Will the corrupt rightwing majority on the US Supreme Court grant his appeal? How will the ruling affect the scheduling of Trump's upcoming federal criminal trial over his many attempts to steal the 2020 election? Veteran BRAD BLOG legal analyst ERNEST A. CANNING explains today's immunity ruling and the far more consequential upcoming oral arguments in the U.S. Supreme Court later this week to determine whether Trump must be disqualified from the 2024 ballot under the Constitution's 'Insurrectionist Disqualification Clause' in the 14th Amendment. Also today: Nevada's confusing, split Republican primary and caucus is a result of the state GOP trying to rig the outcome for Trump. A record storm continues to wreak havoc across Southern California. Plus Desi Doyen has our latest 'Green News Report.'
