Tickets go on sale August 21, but Bulwark+ members get access to an exclusive presale on August 18—so join! (3) Then there’s the news: Trump is trying to put his name on the Kennedy Center again. Grandpa is so thirsty. Karoline Leavitt is taking her talent for baldfaced lying to the private sector. Who will be the lucky news organization to buy the privilege of having her lie to its audience?

This story will take your hate-fire to 11. Sarah was always right about the Wisconsin Democratic primary.

Also: JVL has some nice things to say about Bernie while Sarah is totally getting there on AOC. (4) And then there’s the feelings talk. JVL has a lot of them. About Flash and mortality and his gratitude to all of you guys. (Also: (5) We have news about Rebecca taking us home.) This isn’t an Instant Classic level show, but it’s a good one. Top quintile for sure.

Even Marjorie Taylor Greene Doesn’t Buy the McConnell Story

Jul 8, 2026 1 hr 19 min

Tim, Sarah, and Sam Stein (filling in for JVL) take on the political stories dominating the headlines: • Mitch McConnell is alive and taking calls (maybe, probably?)—despite Laura Loomer’s reports to the contrary..• Platnerdämmerung; the enormous irresponsibility of the Platner candidacy will have real consequences for his movement and for the country; and the messy road ahead in Maine (even if Platner does the right thing and drops out.).• In the wake of the Platner debacle, irony is dead as Trump defenders trip over themselves to claim the moral high ground. Case in point: Kevin McCarthy..• Mallory McMorrow’s failed Michigan Senate campaign exemplifies the challenges of splitting the difference between the moderate and progressive factions of the Democratic Party..• Plus, the USMNT’s embarrassing loss to the waffle-eating Belgians in the World Cup Round of 16.
