Summary

Team Trump is trying to intimidate the opposition. Stop showing them your fear. Plus, Gaetz moves from AG nominee to low-rent MAGA cable channel host, and RT's girlfriend, Tulsi, could have access to the identities of our informants in Russia if she is confirmed. Meanwhile, as Dems plot a way forward, they need to be more clear about calling out the heroes and the villains: When you're trying to be everything to everyone, you're nothing.

Adam Kinzinger and Rep. Pat Ryan join Tim Miller.

Hello and welcome to the Bullwark podcast.

0:10.0

I'm your host Tim Miller.

0:11.2

I'm here today with former GOP congressman, our friend Adam Kinsiger, who is apparently

0:17.3

a candidate for imprisonment, according to the president-elect, but he's out on the

0:21.6

lamb, and he is with us today. What is up? Renegade, Kinsinger. What's up? As I said, bring it. Just

I'll just I'll be double a pain in your butt. Double it when I'm doing it from prison.

0:46.6

Because people will pay attention to that. All right. Just bring it. I have some more news that

0:51.0

is added for you on this front. It's not just Donald Trump that

0:54.2

might want to see you in jail. My colleague Andrew Eggers was over on the Hill yesterday and was talking

and tried to set people up and falsely imprisoned people, then you should be held accountable.

1:13.2

Tim Burchett, Tennessee, if we find they broke the law, then they should be imprisoned.

1:17.6

Now we know they've manipulated evidence.

1:19.8

So if that's the case, then absolutely.

1:21.9

Lauren Bobert, it's not looking good for them.

1:24.1

I think anybody that has politically imprisoned American citizens and completely ruined their lives needs to be investigated. Not every House Republican agreed with them,
