Description

On today's 'BradCast':   Donald Trump hasn't even been sworn in yet, but he's already violating ethics requirements that he himself signed into law in 2019. The Republican President-elect, who barely won a plurality, not a majority, has nominated a flood of unqualified appointees to cabinet level posts and is refusing FBI background checks for sensitive national security positions. Trump and his transition team have also declined to sign required transition and ethics documents. Former DOJ and US Senate official LISA GRAVES, now of True North Research, explains the 'huge red flags' in Trump's efforts to bypass ethics rules and national security review, why it matters, his scheme to force the US Senate into recess to appoint his nominees, and much more. Trump has also nominated fossil fuel executives and climate science deniers for key environmental posts.
