1A - What Medicaid Cuts Mean For Americans, Part II

Medicaid is a cornerstone of the American health care system. The program provides insurance to more than 70 million low-income people and people with disabilities.

Now, addiction experts and nursing home leaders are sounding the alarm over cuts in President Donald Trump's tax and spending bill.

We discuss what these cuts mean for some of the most vulnerable Americans.

He critiques the rise of “disinformation” as a catch-all beat and notes that Substack surprised him by housing everything from bug-eating conspiracies to teen memoirists. Plus the structural distrust in media—and how even flawless reporting wouldn’t have prevented audience collapse. Produced by Corey Wara
