Is Jon Ossoff the One We’ve Been Waiting For? | Secret PodcastThe Bulwark2026-09-20 | Is Jon Ossoff the One We’ve Been Waiting For? | Secret PodcastPuff Daddy, Santos & Ghislaine—Seriously?!The Bulwark2025-08-02 | Sam Stein takes on Donald Trump’s wild Newsmax interview, where Trump openly toys with pardoning disgraced figures like Puff Daddy, George Santos, and even Ghislaine Maxwell.
JVL and Sarah Longwell dive into the serious concerns about Donald Trump's plans to build a $200 million ballroom at the White House, which they see as a symbolic move toward autocracy and potential plans for a third term.
They discuss the erosion of institutional norms, Trump’s corruption, and the long-term damage to America’s credibility and business climate.
They also cover Kamala Harris’s political maneuvering and book launch, expressing disappointment in political leaders treating this moment in history as routine politics rather than an existential crisis for democracy.

A steamfitter and union member, he says he naturally connects with other workers drawing paychecks who are feeling the squeeze. And he likes to point out that his opponent last time took money from corporate donors; but this time, his opponent is a corporate donor—incumbent Pete Ricketts, one of the wealthiest members of Congress. Plus, the pain from tariffs on Main Street, the inhumanity of masked ICE agents, and the peril for Democrats if they can't figure out how to talk to Trump voters.
