“The Illegal News” is where law meets politics. Each week, Bulwark publisher Sarah Longwell (not a lawyer) sits down with a legal expert to unpack how the latest court filings, rulings, and procedural twists and turns of the Trump era are shaping American democracy. These are conversations about justice without the jargon, giving you context for the biggest developments and surfacing the legal (and illegal) moves not getting enough attention. If you're looking for "George Conway Explains It All to Sarah Longwell," George is off on a new adventure, but Sarah will keep you covered.

Love you… less tape of him

Love the show! Long time Canadian listener. The amount of Drumpf in this was painful… had to keep skipping forward to avoid his voice so missed some commentary.
Amazing trio

You three have been a constant in my weekly listen. Your closeness and senses of humor makes this comfort food for us political geeks. Cannot say enough good things. Sincerely, a midwest Republican raised kid gone Jersey democrat teacher with a formative middle in Ontario Canada.

As a life-long lefty, I am shocked at the intelligent, nuanced reasoning of the conservatives of the Bulwark. Tim, Sarah and JVL have opened my eyes to the possibilities of dialogue with the Right. Thank you for this.
