HOT TOPICS | Trump Is Dining with Billionaires While Cutting Medicare - May 23rd, 2025

Good morning Lemon Nation! Today, we’re following the money...because Trump is making a fortune while torching the programs everyday Americans rely on. He’s hosting high-end crypto dinners (because nothing says “stable economy” like blockchain bros and foie gras) while pushing a bill that would gut Medicare and slash support for the most vulnerable. And just to keep the chaos international, he’s now calling for more tariffs on the EU and on iPhones. Yes, your iPhone. So let’s just say it plainly: this is not policy, it’s a grift. A full-blown, gold-plated, tax-advantaged scheme to make the rich richer and distract everyone else with outrage du jour. When will it stop? When people stop falling for it. Let’s talk about it. 🍋 This episode is brought to you by Shopify. Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial and start selling today at SHOPIFY. COM/lemon This episode is sponsored by MSI Choices.
