The Bulwark Podcast

I might disagree with Tim on a few items but a fan of all things bulwark and especially so him. His authenticity is a big part of that

Have seen Tim on Deadline Whitehouse with Nicole Wallace and always enjoy his takes. Now I am a hardcore Bulwark fan. Can’t recommend this podcast enough. Give it a listen- Tim Miller, Sam Stein, Sarah Longwell and JVL are my favorites.

Tim Miller is peaking at exactly the right time. Sail on Brother! Keep your stride.

“Why should we want power?” O’Brien asks Winston. “You are ruling over us for our own good” is Winston’s answer. O’Brien pulls the lever on the torture machine. “That was stupid, Winston, stupid!” he says. “You should know better than to say a thing like that.” He will tell him the correct answer, O’Brien says. “It is this. The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power … We are different from all the oligarchies of the past, in that we know what we are doing … We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power.” Orwell 1984
