Police killings increased in the US last year. 1,369 people were killed by police in 2024 – the highest number on record. This is the direct result of policies & practices that enable and encourage police violence. mappingpoliceviolence.org

We unpack the GOP Murder Bill’s historic cuts to Medicaid, bans on trans care, and then we discuss the FDA sabotage of COVID vaccines. Also: just for fun—Who do you think gets booted first from Trump’s health fascist clown car? RFK, Makary, Bhattacharya, Means, Oz or Prasad?

In our latest, we speak with Jane Thomason of NationalNursesUnited about the Trump administration’s dissolution of CDC’s healthcare infectious control committee (HICPAC) and their broader attacks on worker safety under the banner of “Make America Healthy Again” patreon.com/posts/130544835

The last time Jane was on was March 2024, weeks before the Biden admin caved to NNU’s campaign and brought her and others into an advisory workgroup to HICPAC. Now that the committee itself has been dissolved by the Trump admin, we were finally able to have her back
