How Trump & RFK Jr. Are Making the Child Care & Health Care Crisis Worse, Why Humor Breaks Partisan Divides


Listen Later

On the radio show this week we dive into Trump's inconsistent policies on child care, which exacerbate the child care crisis by creating uncertainty and underfunding programs. We discuss the role of humor and storytelling in breaking partisan divides and fostering empathy. We hear about the harmful conspiracy theories of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., particularly his toxic anti-vaccine stance, and the huge risks coming from Medicaid cuts that he won't even acknowledge.
