Social Security Clawbacks Explained: Ex Post Facto Law & Government Overreach | Wine By the Case


Listen Later

📢 Episode 33 Drop 🎙️🍷

This week on Wine by the Case, Alexis and Chris tackle a legal issue that feels harmless until it hits real people hard: clawbacks and retroactive repayment demands. From Social Security recipients in their 90s to healthcare providers facing audits years later, this episode breaks down why “after the fact” enforcement can be legally valid and morally brutal.

In this episode, we cover:

⚖️ Ex post facto explained in plain English

💸 Clawbacks: what they are and why they happen

👵 Social Security overpayments and why seniors are getting hit now

🏥 Medicare and insurance clawbacks against providers

📉 Fixed income realities vs government math errors

🧾 Why intent matters, and when it doesn’t

🍷 Wine We’re Pouring:

• Ex Post Facto Syrah, Santa Ynez Valley (California) https://www.wine-searcher.com/find/ex+post+facto+syrah+santa+ynez+valley+california+usa

👩‍⚖️ Hosts:

• Chris Sensenig — employment attorney with 28+ years of experience handling employment law, EEOC matters, compliance, and the occasional “please don’t make the news” situation.

• Alexis Rosenberg (Litigation Lex®) — partner at Rosenberg Law, P.A. with 20 years of experience, business, healthcare, cannabis, and insurance law attorney, regular legal commentator on Court TV, Law & Crime, iCrime with Elizabeth Vargas, and proudly “not a sommelier.”

💬 Question for listeners: Should the government be allowed to claw back money when the mistake was entirely theirs, especially from seniors on fixed incomes?
