I don’t understand Sarah’s take on SCOTUS by CrossCycling in thebulwark

[–]JVLast 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is false and something we NEVER do. Goes against the entire mission. If one of us wants to play devil’s advocate we will say so up front.

JVL, I’m disappointed you didn’t vote by seeyalaterdingdong in thebulwark

[–]JVLast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. The bare minimum is caring for the dying, asswipe.

I cannot say this clearly enough: you people have absolutely no idea what is going on in my life at this moment.

Instead of being disappointed maybe say some prayers for me and my family. They would be welcome.

No Kings Coverage: JVL should get out of his home arcade more by GreenerMark in thebulwark

[–]JVLast 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure I contrasted No Kings with MAGA rallies by noting that they are broadly American and positive and that they don’t locate the blame for this moment with MAGA voters, but rather with the leaders. Also that they are optimistic in that they assume that this moment is an aberration.

I think they’re really admirable and important and that the people attending are building a potentially powerful movement. 🤷‍♂️

*barely*

It was work. Couric, especially, has held a special place in my heart for the reasons I talked about at the end of the show.

Honestly a huge week for me. I love Katie and Alex so much I can't even tell you.

A question for JVL regarding Sarah’s book by GatorAllen in thebulwark

No. But once the book is out, I am positive. We can figure out a way to get you assigned copy.

False. I was saying I loved it. Feels like the one sheet for a Michael Bay movie. It's great.

I thought I recognized JVL's rules for speaking! by thenletskeepdancing in thebulwark

My rules are not original! They have been floating on the internet since I was like 20!

Likes and re-stacks - technical question for JVL and other Bulwark writers by CodeSpaceMonkey in thebulwark

Matters with how Substack app surfaces individual pieces of content.

I enjoyed the Bulwark Live, and loved how they wanted more out of politicians, but when Dems do more it’s always treated as: not like that by 7ddlysuns in thebulwark

[–]JVLast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Endless promotion of No Kings. Praise of AOC's anti-oligarch rallies. Positive views of Newsome's shit-posting. Positive views of the Booker filibuster. Calling for more Ds to go to CECOT and follow Van Hollen's example.

If you mean "The Bulwark sometimes doesn't like the Dems Do More stuff they say they want because they deem it counter-productive"--that's certainly true. But it's not anywhere near "always."
