Rural Healthcare Is At Stake In The Shutdown Fight

A federal judge halted the Trump administration’s efforts to get rid of roughly 4,000 federal workers during the shutdown on Wednesday. And yet while courts try to stop the Trump administration from axing government workers, hundreds of thousands of federal employees are going without paychecks. And the Affordable Care Act subsidies Democrats are fighting for are what stands between millions of Americans and even higher health care prices. To discuss how the shutdown and the subsidies fight are affecting rural Americans, I spoke to Wisconsin Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin.

And in headlines, Department of Homeland Security blows a wad of cash on Kristi Noem-inspired propaganda, Trump confirms he’s authorized CIA action in Venezuela. And Operation Summer Heat! No it’s not a new Baywatch spin-off – it’s Trump’s and FBI director Kash Patel’s latest crackdown on crime.
