About this episode
While the Congressional Budget Office says as many as twelve million people could lose health insurance due to Medicaid cuts in the President's "big, beautiful bill," the Trump administration defends work requirements and cuts for cost savings. Their goal is to reform the system, removing non-disabled recipients from Medicaid. Despite Democrats' concerns, these cuts won't take effect until the end of next year. Director of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Dr. Mehmet Oz joins the Rundown to explain the need to address waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicaid to ensure those who need it most receive health care. Last week, the largest illegal immigration raid of President Donald Trump's second term occurred, resulting in the detention of over 360 individuals at two marijuana farms in California. Among those detained were several convicted felons and 14 children. Former acting ICE Director and former federal prosecutor Jonathan Fahey joins us to discuss the raids and the ongoing legal issues surrounding immigration. Plus, commentary from New York Post columnist and co-author of "Stolen Youth," Karol Markowicz. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
