You are great charlie, no criticism meant. I thought maybe you composed today's newsletter with a thought toward an easy short week, with less of us on the left gnashing our teeth on you. Have a great week & holiday!
I'd say The Bulwark hasn't been afraid to take the Israel situation on, but you can't keep hammering the same topic over and over and you gotta diversify the topics covered. Especially now when most news orgs are laser-focused on it, I ask myself what they're overlooking that could be more consequential but not as eye-drawing. The "if it bleeds, it leads" operating procedures of media is something that often gets us to miss important stories.
Maybe Charlie was choosing to avoid Israel & Biden's age & he needed to fill space.
Maybe we donтАЩt need to write about the same thing every day.

Or it might just be that Mike Lee and a bunch of J6 conspiracy chatter was a leading news item over the weekend.
It isn't exactly unusual for Charlie to post about topics other than the two you mention.
True. I just got the feeling he didn't want to get flak from us today, so avoided some of the triggers.
