Peter Callaghan and Isaac Stanley-Becker: Veep Peeks
The Bulwark Podcast
Tim talks to a local Minnesota reporter to get the low-down on Tim Walz's recent political history, including where he falls on the progressive-to-moderate spectrum—as well as his weak spots from his tenure as governor, like the 2020 riots in Minneapolis.
Plus, JD Vance, as a senator, has been texting with a Holocaust-denying far-right fringe character, but won't take calls from high-ranking Ukrainian officials.
MinnPost's Peter Callaghan and the Washington Post's Isaac Stanley-Becker join Tim Miller.
