Episode Description

<p>Not until Democrats finally stop performing politics, says Bradley, will they be able to beat Trump. In&nbsp;a blistering set of takes, he adds: “No Kings”–style protests are worthy but don't challenge Trump; the government shutdown only breaks when Republican voters feel real pain; the NBA must apply zero tolerance and radical transparency to the gambling scandal (“kill it or lose the league”); underage online betting could be fixed overnight with biometric checks; confronting ICE on the street is a high-risk, high-reward gambit for Trump opponents; blowing up alleged drug boats is either war or murder —&nbsp;pick one or stop;&nbsp;museum security may be more implied than real;&nbsp;and why there's nothing Kamala Harris can do to be a serious contender for 2028.</p><p>This episode was taped at <a href="https://www.ptknitwear.com/podcasts/about-the-podcast-studio" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">P&amp;T Knitwear</a> at 180 Orchard Street — New York City’s only free podcast recording studio.</p><p>Send us an email with your thoughts on today’s episode: <a href="http://[email protected]" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">[email protected]</a>.</p><p>Be sure to watch Bradley’s new TED Talk on Mobile Voting at <a href="https://go.ted.com/bradleytusk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://go.ted.com/bradleytusk</a>.</p><p>Subscribe to Bradley's <a href="https://bradleytusk.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=598eec9b2f3796f83c63c4888&amp;id=f71bd48c53" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">weekly newsletter</a> and follow Bradley on <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/btusk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Linkedin</a> + <a href="https://bradleytusk.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Substack</a> + <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@firewallpodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>.</p>
