While it's still going to be bad, for the first time since the election we're beginning to see that we may actually have a little fun watching these idiots prove they don't know how to govern. Meanwhile, we've also got aspiring authoritarians on the left who think they're right at any cost. Plus, the challenge of holding on to American ideals, how to reach low-info voters, Tim's take from Phoenix on TPUSA, and can Tim make Jon cry? And one more Biden critique (that comes toward the end)... Merry Christmas.

Full Episode
Hello and welcome to the Bulwark Podcast. I'm your host, Tim Miller. It is the last daily Bulwark Podcast out of the year. I'll be back. I'm not like my guest who's taken off, who knows, a whole month, I think, working on French time. I'll be back the Monday after Christmas. But next week I'm going skiing. I need it.
And today I'm here with the co-founder of Crooked Media, co-host of Pond Save America. You might have heard of it. He also has a podcast, Offline. He was Obama's speechwriter from 2005 to 2013. It's Jon Favreau. What's going on, man?
Thanks for holding space for me in this last Daily Bulletwork podcast for a while.
We're going to hold a lot of space together, actually. At the very end of this podcast, I'm going to endeavor to make you cry like John Lovett did when he was last on. I'm telling you, you're going to have a tough time. His tears were on Jesse Waters' show. So if we don't have a clip from this podcast show up on Jesse Waters' show, it is going to be a disappointment.
Wait, did Jesse Waters' show Lovett crying on your show? Did that happen?
Yeah.
How did I miss that? Why didn't you send that around?
I think I did. I don't remember. Or maybe I was sensitive about it. I might have not sent it because I felt bad for it. But it's been a few weeks, so now the scars have built up. No, I think it's funny. We'll find the archive. Before we get to tears...
And before we get to talking about your Atlantic article about what the Democrats are doing wrong, which might also lead to tears, we need to talk about what's happening on the Hill. By the time we have this podcast up, the state of play might have changed some, but biggest picture, here's what we got. There was a bipartisan deal.
