outro music: mangetout by Wet Leg

of course we ‘had to do it to em.’ Bae & Fidel discuss how H.R.1, or the ‘one big beautiful bill act,’ has its fingerprints not only on healthcare concerns such as Medicaid, the ACA marketplace, and rural care, but also on immigration enforcement that will color the future of ICE raids, detention camps, and beyond. oh there’s also tax cuts for the rich (there’s always fuckn tax cuts for the rich). we also cover some good news, so stay tuned to the closing minutes of the program for a too-rare private equity L.
