Howard Lutnick’s Stunning Mistreatment of a Top Government Scientist (Michael Lewis) | Bulwark Daily

Destroying trust in the government is one of Trump's key sources of power, but Michael reports from the front lines of the deep state that there still are good employees serving the public's interest. In his new book, Michael celebrates some of the heroes who either managed to survive DOGE—or were stupidly pushed out despite the vital roles they filled. And the absolute failures of DOGE raise serious questions about how Elon could be trusted to run any enterprise. Plus: Trump sure sounded like he was inviting Iran to bomb two big blue cities, and Republicans are rushing money to South Carolina and a very GOP district in Kentucky. So on the nose after Tim and Bill shared their long shot midterms picks on Monday. Michael Lewis joins Tim Miller.
