In the Bulwark Podcast, Charlie Sykes and guests discuss the latest news from inside Washington and around the world. Their tagline: No shouting, grandstanding, or sloganeering. Conservative, conscientious, and civil.

Here are two episodes from this week:

Franklin Foer: Donald Trump Will Be Indicted - It will be a terrible spectacle, there may be violence, and the country could be torn apart, but Trump’s autocratic, undemocratic behavior cannot go unchallenged. Staff writer for the Atlantic, Franklin Foer, joins Charlie Sykes to make the case that Trump’s indictment is inevitable.

Robert Draper: Weapons of Mass Delusion - The GOP has become a host body for some of the most radical voices in America, who spread disinformation and use increasingly violent rhetoric. And the party’s enablers don’t say a word. How are the Republicans going to get this to stop? Author Robert Draper joins Charlie Sykes.
