Why Tuesday's Georgia Primary Has MASSIVE 2028 Implications

Lauren Egan takes a look at the massive 2028 implications. https://lnk.thebulwark.com/4tNX2iW

Justin Jones: The Assault On Multiracial Democracy in the South

Tennessee is on the front lines of the racialized politics that has resurfaced in the South since SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act. Its Jim Crow legislature stripped the people of Memphis of congressional representation for their majority-black city, and Democratic legislators have been punished for protesting the move. The state is looking less like a democracy by the day. Meanwhile, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Louisiana are also working on dismantling black political power in their states.

Plus, Trump is an anti-farmer president, Stephen Miller is still running an immigration crackdown, and Tim sees promising signs in Tom Massie’s loss in Kentucky.

Tennessee's Rep. Justin Jones joins Tim Miller on today's Bulwark Podcast.

Sarah Longwell, JVL, and Martha Raddatz: Trump Is Looting Us in Broad Daylight

Donald Trump—as a private citizen—sued our government, which he runs, and then settled the lawsuit with $1.8 billion that he stole from the U.S. Treasury. See, he needs a secret fund of taxpayer money so he can pay not only reparations to his band of Jan 6 rioters, but also to incentivize future (election) criming on his behalf. In a special emergency The Next Level (TNL), Tim, Sarah, and JVL break it all down.

Plus, Martha explains how Iran’s demands for money may be why Trump won’t officially end the war. And she discusses Zelensky's resiliency, along with her new book about the 9/11 generation that fought our wars.

Martha Raddatz, Jonathan V. Last, and Sarah Longwell join Tim Miller on today's Bulwark Podcast.
