  • Robert Draper: The Prosecutor
    Oct 29 2024
    Kamala Harris sees the world as divided between those who follow the rules and those who break them—and that injustice requires action, not whining. And behind the story of a child of two high-achieving immigrants is a woman who remains loyal, reveres law and order, shows up prepared, and approaches challenges with a 'just the facts' linear style of thinking. Yet, she also maintains a level of inscrutability.

    Robert Draper joins Tim Miller.

  • Robert Kagan and Bill Kristol: It's Already Happening Before our Eyes
    Oct 28 2024
    By de-prioritizing The Washington Post in his business empire, Jeff Bezos is showing exactly how a free press gets dismantled. Other corporate titans are also falling in line so they're not on the wrong side of Trump. Meanwhile, with the Klan-like rhetoric at Sunday's rally, MAGA is baring its teeth and showing us that its true essence is about white Christian supremacy. Plus, the Senate races, and Tim's reporting from outside MSG.

    Bob Kagan—who resigned from WAPO on Friday—and Bill Kristol join Tim Miller.

    show notes:

    Bill and Bob's conversation on authoritarianism in 2019

  • Bret Stephens: Pray Kamala Wins
    Oct 25 2024
    Trump is corrosive to the soul of our democracy. He's a bigot, an ogre, and an isolationist. And for all the Reagan Republicans on the fence: If Trump gets back in, America won't have a healthy conservative movement again for generations. Plus, Kamala on Israel, and Elon's private foreign policy with Putin—he's working against our national security while helping himself to the treasury of the United States.

    Bret Stephens joins Tim Miller for the weekend pod.
