Ten Lesbians Walk Into a Bar . . .

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.thebulwark.com

JVL is already in Ohio. Sarah is about to run to the airport. It’s a wheels-off kind of show. This week:

* The government seems to have lied to a court again.

* JD Vance was the leaker who threatened national security.

* Mary Peltola gets caught in context collapse.

* Trump had compromat on Susan Collins.

* JVL feels guilty about cutting a promo.

And then there’s the big one: The story of the Massachusetts lesbian bar that wasn’t woke enough. It’s a solid B-/B episode!

show notes:

* Donate here to our Benefit for Springfield—funds go to the Haitian Support Center.

* Want that Woke Bill Kristol tee? Get it at The Bulwark Store.

* Sarah’s THANK YOU note to the Bulwark family.

* How to Eat an Elephant debuted at #2 on the NYT best seller list. We knocked Ted Effing Cruz out of the top spot! Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible. Let’s keep the momentum going.

OR!
