Bill Kristol and Jane Fonda: The New 'Fierce Urgency of Now'

from The Bulwark Podcast · host The Bulwark

ICE is intentionally provoking violence in the nation’s cities and then glorifying it with their crack video team. Meanwhile, the rhetoric coming from Trump true believers about their desire for a ‘benevolent’ authoritarian strongman is truly alarming. But governors and members of the judiciary are behaving like we still have a republic —and that the insurrectionist president can’t just deploy Guard troops in whatever state he wants. Plus, the Dems should consider broadening their aims with the shutdown, and Jane Fonda is reviving her father’s McCarthy-Era free expression group. Jane Fonda and Bill Kristol join Tim Miller.Leave a commentshow notes Monday's "Morning Shots" Bill's "Bulwark on Sunday" with Ryan Goodman Fonda's Committee for the First Amendment "Bulwark Takes" podcast Lauren on Geoff Duncan's campaign for governor in Georgia Tim at Barstool HQ with KFC Pic of Kristi Noem working out Where to watch the Fonda's 1971 film, "Klute" Bulwark Live in DC (10/8) with special guest Rep.
