Lost Debate - The Bipartisan War on Free Speech

Ravi welcomes Greg Lukianoff, President and CEO of FIRE, to discuss the organization's latest report assessing colleges on their commitment to free speech.

They also cover the recent pro-Palestine protests on college campuses, the wave of university president resignations, and the complex challenges facing higher education today. Ravi and Greg explore the tension between activism and academic rigor, the evolving role of leadership, and the need for political diversity within university faculties. They then highlight new approaches that are encouraging open dialogue and share why they remain cautiously optimistic about the future of free speech in academia.

Finally, Ravi and Greg address how free speech issues continue to unfold across the political spectrum and why both the right and the left have fallen short in defending this fundamental right.

1A - Recapping The 2024 Vice Presidential Debate

We're breaking down what happened in New York City last night on the vice-presidential debate stage. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz faced off against Ohio Sen. JD Vance.

So, let's get into what happened and what it means for the presidential election.

The Bulwark Podcast - Jim Messina and Michael Weiss: Midwestern Nice

The Harris campaign clearly opted not to send out an attack dog in last night's debate. While JD Vance helped the reputation of the Yale debate club, the coverage today is about abortion and Jan 6—Tim Walz's best lines. Meanwhile, the race remains a coin toss, and the legal drama over the election is already becoming a nightmare. Plus, Iran's ballistic missile attack and Israel's coming retaliation.

Jim Messina and Michael Weiss join Tim Miller.
