Encore: original airdate 9-29-2026. On today's 'BradCast': US consumer confidence in the economy has fallen to the lowest levels since 2012. Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott declared a statewide emergency over soaring diesel prices.

Trump Defense Sec. Pete Hegseth announced that military agencies will now be 'deployed to defend our election infrastructure.' DAN BECKER of the Center for Biological Diversity explains the Trump Administration's new rollback of fuel efficiency standards for cars and trucks, which will raise energy costs for Americans, worsen pollution and climate change, ensure that US automakers will be unable to compete in global markets, and more.
