Summary

While it's still going to be bad, for the first time since the election we're beginning to see that we may actually have a little fun watching these idiots prove they don't know how to govern. Meanwhile, we've also got aspiring authoritarians on the left who think they're right at any cost. Plus, the challenge of holding on to American ideals, how to reach low-info voters, Tim's take from Phoenix on TPUSA, and can Tim make Jon cry? And one more Biden critique (that comes toward the end)... Merry Christmas.

Jon Favreau joins Tim Miller.

0:40.5	Thanks for holding space for me in this last daily bulletwork podcast for a while.
0:47.0	We're going to hold a lot of space together, actually. At the very end of this podcast,
0:51.5	I'm going to endeavor to make you cry like John Lovett did when he was last on.
0:54.9	I'm telling you, you're going to have a tough time. His tears were on, we're on Jesse Waters' show.
