New Mexico and the U.S. are one step closer to having the first female Native American governor as former Interior Secretary Deb Haaland (Laguna Pueblo) beat out her Democratic opponent Sam Bregman with 72% of the vote Tuesday night in the primary election. KUNM’s Jeanette DeDios (Jicarilla Apache and Diné) was among the attendees at her watch party. Old Town plaza was filled with New Mexicans young and old in support of Democratic gubernatorial candidate Deb Haaland, dressed in a black and white dress with bright red cowboy boots. Haaland told the crowd she would lower costs so that New Mexicans can have better access to health care, education, and safe communities. “I’ve been through hard times. I’m a single mom, I’ve lived paycheck to paycheck, I survived off SNAP and WIC. I’m over 35 years sober. These are the same struggles so many New Mexicans face today, but with the grit, creativity, and persistence that only New Mexicans know, I know a better New Mexico, as possible.” Haaland served as the 54th U.S Secretary of Interior, making her one of the first two Native American women elected to Congress. She said she will put that work into experience. “To combat [President] Donald Trump’s cuts to Medicaid, fight against rising health care costs, and take a stand, so that ICE will not be allowed near schools, places of worship, or public community spaces.” Kalika Tallou (Diné and Ute) works for the nonprofit New Mexico Community Capital and was in the crowd. She says she has heard some reservations from other Indigenous people about Haaland, but she says Haaland has a big voice in the grand scheme of things. “I feel supportive of her and her work in Washington, DC, and internationally, and across the island, and wanting to uplift and support our Indigenous women with the challenges that they're faced with.” Haaland will face Republican candidate Greg Hull on November 3. “If I didn’t earn your vote this primary election, I want you to know I’m going to work every day to earn it now.” Hopi dry farmer Michael Kotutwa Johnson. (Photo: Lauren Gilger / KJZZ) The University of Arizona has released a new report highlighting the huge economic impact of tribal agriculture throughout the Grand Canyon State – including $750,000,000 in total economic output statewide. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has details. According to the study, Indigenous farms outnumber all other operations statewide. And while most tribal farms are between one and nine acres in size, they collectively manage more than 80% of Arizona's farmlands during 2022. For Hopi dry farmer Michael Kotutwa Johnson, who is a co-author, this report is an important reminder. “The main story is that Indian people are still doing agriculture since before we were in a state… Maybe doing it in a different form, but we're still here, and we're still doing that, and I think that our contributions have been really unnoticed.” Including how the vast majority of Arizona farms for commodities, like sheep, goats, vegetables, and melons, are owned by Indigenous peoples. Johnson thinks that trend will continue to grow. “So I really would make the claim that in about 20 years the only real agriculture in Arizona will be on Indian reservations.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Explosive sexual scandals, bitter domestic conflicts, and dramatic changes in fortune. Sex, marriage, and family life were matters of enormous consequence in the highly complex societies that formed across the early modern Dutch overseas empire. This was not only true for the colonial authorities that administered settlements on behalf of the Dutch East and West India Companies (VOC and WIC), but also for the people of various backgrounds and statuses that inhabited these places. Focusing primarily on the eighteenth century, this book explores how these disparate and unequally empowered groups contested the norms that governed intimate life in Dutch colonial outposts from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic. Sophie Rose, Ph.D. (2023), is a post-doctoral researcher at Leiden University. This interview is conducted by Dr Lewis Wade, a Humboldt Research Fellow at the University of Bamberg.

Major federal investments and national guidance can shape the future of public health, but only if states can turn policy into practice. This episode looks at two sweeping developments and the on-the-groundwork required to make them matter. First, Chris Salyers, Director of Programs and Evaluation at the National Organization of State Offices of Rural Health explains the Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP), a $50 billion, five-year investment aimed at strengthening rural communities. With no clear blueprint for moving funds at this scale, states are in the early stages of building advisory groups, navigating procurement and contracting rules, and working to ensure dollars actually reach rural providers and organizations, not just large outside entities. Salyers highlights the importance of stakeholder engagement, peer learning, and using this planning window to build systems that allow smaller, capacity-strapped rural groups to compete for funding.  Then, Shannon Vance, Director, Family and Child Health at ASTHO, breaks down the newly released 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and their wide-ranging implications. With chronic disease driving nearly 90% of U.S. healthcare spending, the updated guidance, including stronger limits on added sugars, greater emphasis on protein and full-fat dairy, and life-stage–specific recommendations, could reshape everything from individual eating habits to major federal nutrition programs. Vance explores the ripple effects for SNAP, WIC, and school meals, where agencies are already juggling recent rule changes, tight budgets, and supply challenges.Leadership Power Hour: Your Launchpad for Impact | ASTHOThe 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines: Understanding the New Pyramid | ASTHOFunding & Collaboration Opportunities | ASTHOASTHO (@ASTHO) / XAssociation of State and Territorial Health Officials (@asthonews.bsky.social) — Bluesky(1) Instagram(1) LinkedInFacebook

RaeAnn Tucker joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about Heart Health Month, Dr. Ford's retirement, insurance navigators, the new WIC location in Kewanee, and 12 communities in 12 months. February marks American Heart Month, and area health officials are urging residents to prioritize heart health. The Henry and Stark County Health Departments, along with First Choice Healthcare Clinics, are now offering free access to automated blood pressure monitors in Kewanee, Colona, and Toulon. Individuals can use these monitors and take home a printout of their results. A new loaner program also allows residents to track blood pressure at home. The new WIC offices in Kewanee are open at 109 South Burr Boulevard, offering expanded services for families. In other news, Dr. Donald Ford retires after nearly five decades of distinguished service. Details about insurance help, WIC applications, and health resources can be found at henrystarkhealth.com. Health insurance navigators are available at several local venues in February to help with coverage questions and enrollment.

Grand Forks County Commissioner Mark Rustad joins the show to announce his bid for re-election, share personal updates and reflect on his first term. They discuss recent challenges including a flooded lake cabin and his wife's health battle, as well as key local issues: the proposed roundabout near the airport, consolidation of jail and sheriff operations to save money, debates over housing detainees, budget votes, WIC administration, and community concerns about needle exchange and public safety. Rustad also talks campaign plans, signature requirements for the ballot, and invites listeners to reach out with questions or support as he seeks another term.

Have you noticed that our food pyramid looks a little different? With the FDA's 2026 release of the updated food pyramid and dietary guidelines, Jenn is here to unpack why these changes matter and what they might mean for your health and your plate. In this episode, host and health coach, Jenn Trepeck breaks down the controversial new dietary guidelines released by the FDA in 2026. From the seemingly dramatic increase in protein and dairy intake recommendations to her concerns about food quantity versus quality, what do these changes mean for us on an individual level or for our families? Jenn also discusses the massive implications for millions of Americans that rely on federal nutrition programs such as school lunch programs, SNAP benefits, the WIC program, and military meals. With the slogan “Make America Healthy Again” Jenn breaks down the resources to discern whether these new guidelines are based on evidence-based research or meat and dairy industry influence. Remember, nutrition is nuanced and individualized, there is not a “one-size-fits-all” dietary plan. What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why the new dietary guidelines impact millions of Americans through federal nutrition programs, including the school lunch program, SNAP benefits, and the WIC program, and how these changes will affect meal planning for the most vulnerable populations✅ The controversial shift in protein recommendations from 0.8 to 1.2 to 1.6 grams per kilogram, and why this increase raises questions about evidence-based nutrition versus food industry influence✅ The critical difference between public health recommendations and individual health needs, and why understanding this distinction is essential for making informed nutrition education decisions✅ How the removal of the health equity lens and emphasis on red meat consumption without addressing food quality concerns demonstrates the challenge of creating truly comprehensive nutrition standardsThe Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Federal nutrition programs, why dietary guidelines feed students with varied nutrients from different food groups01:48 New nutrition guidelines and the confusion that comes with the updated food pyramid 07:41 Why these dietary guidelines matter for military food assistance, school meals, and other federal nutrition programs 11:19 Statistics reveal 6.7 million on WIC, 41.7 million on SNAP benefits, and 30 million students receive school lunch nationwide15:39 Breaking down the upside-down food pyramid showing meat and dairy at the top, vegetables and fruit in the middle, and whole grains at the bottom21:26 Discussion on food industry funding and which beef, pork, and dairy associations paid dietary guideline committee members24:15 Protein recommendations increase without any mention of food quality or emphasizing plant protein sources like legumes and beans30:27 The recommendation of three servings of dairy per day ignores lactose intolerance and possible health impacts of dairy32:53 Only three servings of vegetables recommended per day equals the same amount as dairy servings36:18 Saturated fat capped at 10% creates a puzzle when combined with increased red meat consumption without quality considerations41:15: Whole grains recommendation of two to four servings a day44:01 Bottom line recommendations from the new guidelines assessmentKEY TAKEAWAYS:

Olivia Lupia of The Tennessee Conservative interviews State Representative Monty Fritts, who is also running for governor, discussing upcoming bills and his legislative priorities for the session. The bill filing deadline was extended to February 3rd at 3:00 p.m..Key topics and bills discussed include:Grocery Sales Tax Bill: Representative Fritts is running a bill that would remove the 4% state sales tax on items that qualify for WIC. He notes that this is the same bill he carried a couple of years ago and it removes the burden from grocers by not requiring them to reprogram anything. The intent is that all Tennessee citizens would benefit from the tax removal on these items. A few years ago, the fiscal note was about $150 million. He believes this is a "measured step forward" compared to trying to remove all grocery taxes and that the dollars saved by Tennesseans will go back into the economy.Charlie Kirk Memorial Courtyard Bill: Representative Fritts and Senator Pod are running a bill for schools that would create the Charlie Kirk Memorial Courtyard. The idea evolved from an initial proposal for a road or boulevard. The courtyards are intended to be a conversation space, memorializing the importance of dialogue, and would allow for public donations to help. The idea is to remind "crazy leftist Marxist radicals" on college campuses that they are near things like the Ten Commandments and the Declaration of Independence.Illegal Immigration: Representative Fritts believes Tennessee has led the nation in addressing illegal immigration, specifically with House Bill 1872, which addresses violent crime committed by illegal immigrants with a life in prison sentence without parole. He also highlighted the importance of considering residency status for bond.Non-Essentialism Bill: Representative Fritts is still pursuing his non-essentialism bill, which the governor's office has fought for three years.Property Tax: Representative Fritts wants to address property taxes by getting rid of the unrealized capital gain tax. He also wants to fix the value of a home at its 2020 value or what the owner paid for it since then. His bill aims to prevent U.S. citizens from being evicted for delinquent property taxes, especially if they have owned the house for ten years.Sanctity of Life Bill: This bill focuses on five areas and includes provisions related to In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). Representative Fritts stated that to discard or destroy a fertilized egg as part of the IVF process is murder. The bill is intended as a "corrective measure" after Governor Lee did not veto a bill that Fritts believed gave the right to create and discard human life at will. The other categories addressed in the bill are transgender surgeries, human trafficking, and abortion.Obscenity and Pornography: A bill is being introduced to take on obscenity and pornography in public places. It would require places like a strip club to post a sign warning that patrons "may be contributing to human trafficking, sexual assault, and family violence". Books and tapes would also require a warning label similar to a pack of cigarettes.Gun Bills: Representative Fritts is working on two gun bills, which address the "intent to go armed". One bill is already filed. The other bill would also include campus carry, allowing young adults to carry a firearm on campus, and would allow citizens to protect their private property with a firearm. The bill also addresses long guns.

RaeAnn Tucker from the Henry and Stark County Health Departments and First Choice HealthCare Clinics joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to discuss the new WIC office in Kewanee, cold weather safety, insurance navigators, and National Birth Defects Prevention Month. This January, the Henry and Stark County Health Departments are emphasizing birth defect prevention with the theme “Every Journey Matters.” Officials urge all women of childbearing age to take 400 micrograms of folic acid daily, consult healthcare providers about medications, and stay up to date on vaccines. Achieving a healthy weight before pregnancy and avoiding harmful substances like alcohol and tobacco are also recommended steps to lower risk. WIC services offer nutrition support for mothers and children, with a new Kewanee office opening February 3rd at 109 S. Burr Blvd. For local resources or assistance, visit henrystarkhealth.com or call 309-852-0197.

This episode covers: • Real Food Reset in U.S. Dietary Policy The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2025–2030 put real food back at the center of U.S. nutrition policy and take a direct swing at ultra processed foods, added sugar, and sugary drinks. Dave breaks down why this matters beyond personal dieting: these guidelines influence school meals, SNAP and WIC, federal feeding programs, and they shape what eventually shows up on labels and in public institutions. He also shares how biohackers can use this shift as leverage to push for better food environments in schools, workplaces, and hospitals. -Source: https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2026/01/07/kennedy-rollins-unveil-historic-reset-us-nutrition-policy-put-real-food-back-center-health • Drug Combo Extends Lifespan of Frail Old Mice by 73% A new aging study found that combining oxytocin with a compound called A5i extended the remaining lifespan of frail elderly male mice by 73%, while also improving function and tissue health. Dave explains why this is a big signal for the future of longevity medicine: stacking targeted interventions can outperform single compounds, especially when you start late in life. He also explains what to do with the idea right now: stop building random “everything stacks” and start thinking in phases, tracking outcomes, and waiting for real human combo data. -Source: https://www.futura-sciences.com/en/study-finds-drug-combo-could-slow-aging-and-increase-lifespan-by-73_23229/ • ChatGPT Health Turns Your Data Into a Health OS OpenAI launched ChatGPT Health, a dedicated health experience that lets you securely connect medical records and wellness apps like Apple Health and MyFitnessPal, so you can summarize visits, interpret labs, and prepare better questions for your doctor. Dave explains why this is a turning point for quantified self and protocol building: it reduces the friction of pulling data from five different places, and it makes pattern-finding accessible to nontechnical people. He also shares how to use it like a pro: clean inputs, smarter questions, and better doctor conversations. -Source: https://openai.com/index/introducing-chatgpt-health/ • Whole Milk Is Back in Schools The Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act restores whole and reduced-fat milk options in schools, aligning school nutrition rules with the updated dietary guidelines that no longer treat full-fat dairy like a default villain. Dave breaks down why this matters for child healthspan: satiety and nutrient density drive behavior, learning, and metabolic stability. He also explains why this is a real-world policy experiment worth watching across school districts, and how it can open the door for bigger institutional upgrades like better protein and fewer ultra processed items. -Source: https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2026/01/14/whole-milk-back-president-trump-signs-whole-milk-healthy-kids-act • Tirzepatide Trial Targets Biological Age With Aging Clocks A registered clinical trial titled Tirzepatide to Slow Biological Aging is using multiple DNA methylation aging clocks as primary endpoints, along with functional metrics like grip strength and a 6-minute walk test. Dave explains why this is a big maturity step for longevity science: instead of assuming metabolic improvement equals slower aging, this study is measuring biological age directly, across multiple clocks, with performance outcomes. He also shares the practical lesson for biohackers: stop relying on one favorite metric and start thinking in panels, function, and durability of results. -Source: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07220473 All source links provided for direct access to the original research and reporting. This episode is designed for biohackers, longevity seekers, and high-performance listeners who want practical strategies rooted in cutting-edge science.

Why do so many people know what's healthy—yet struggle to follow through? In this episode of NHA Today, host Dr. Frank Sabatino sits down with Timaree Hagenburger, MPH, RDN, LD/N, also known as The Nutrition Professor, to explore the critical gap between nutrition knowledge and real-life behavior change. With over 20 years of experience in plant-based education, public health nutrition, and community-based programs like WIC, Timaree shares powerful stories that reveal why information alone isn't enough—and what actually helps people succeed long term. Together, they discuss food cravings and withdrawal, taste-bud transformation, cultural food identity, and why community, pleasure, and practical support are essential for sustainable whole-food, plant-based living. In this episode, you'll learn: Why motivation fades after inspiration—and how to prevent it How taste buds and cravings change after removing processed foods Why restriction fails but joy and variety succeed How community support turns short-term change into lifelong habits Real-world plant-based success stories from public health settings NHA Today is the official podcast of the National Health Association, the oldest health organization in the U.S. dedicated to evidence-based, healthful living.

The jokes start with NASA tracksuits, but the conversation lands where most of us actually live: tight budgets, limited time, picky kids, and a million loud opinions about what “healthy” should look like. We sit down with Brittany, a registered dietitian working in population health, to unpack how real nutrition care gets done when the barriers are financial, linguistic, and logistical—not theoretical.Brittany walks us through her nontraditional clinical role where she analyzes data from over 100,000 patients to identify gaps in care for groups like uninsured teens with diabetes or older adults with multiple conditions. From there, she builds outreach, coordinates SNAP and WIC referrals, and uses simple teaching tools—color-coded bins, photo-based handouts, and food models—to cut through low literacy and language hurdles. Her favorite tactic: nutrition by addition. Instead of chasing perfection, build meals by adding what's missing—protein, carbs, fiber—so you can eat well in any setting, whether it's canned beans and rice or a bagged salad with chicken.We also go deep on wellness hype. Expect sharp takes on greens powders, breath gadgets, and the latest “patch” trends cluttering your feed. Then we dig into GLP-1 medications: where they genuinely help, where they go wrong, and why rapid weight loss without education, strength training, and follow-up can slide into malnutrition and fatigue. Brittany argues for care teams, resistance training, and responsible prescribing, while we examine the murky ethics of influencer discount codes and black-market peptides. Finally, we talk research funding and why big food money often keeps university labs running—plus how to demand transparency without abandoning science.If you're tired of black-and-white answers and want practical strategies you can use tonight, this one's for you.

The latest episode of the AgNet News Hour delivers a wide-ranging discussion on agriculture, public policy, and the growing challenges facing California farmers. Hosts Nick Papagni, “the Ag Meter”, and Lorrie Boyer open the show with a look at new federal dietary guidelines tied to the Make America Healthy Again movement, which emphasize protein, fruits, vegetables, whole milk, and eggs while reducing reliance on grains and ultra-processed foods. The conversation highlights how these changes could affect school meals, SNAP and WIC programs, and key agricultural sectors such as dairy. A major portion of the episode features an in-depth interview with California Assemblyman David Tangipa, who reflects on the legacy of late Congressman Doug LaMalfa, a fourth-generation rice farmer remembered for his integrity and advocacy for agriculture. Tangipa discusses the political uncertainty following LaMalfa's passing and strongly criticizes Proposition 50, arguing that California's redistricting process amounted to unconstitutional racial gerrymandering. He outlines ongoing litigation, possible Supreme Court involvement, and the broader consequences for Central Valley representation. The discussion expands into election integrity, with Tangipa calling for voter ID, citizenship verification, and increased accountability, while urging farmers and rural communities to become more politically engaged. He stresses that breaking the Democratic supermajority in Sacramento is critical for meaningful reform, particularly on water policy, energy costs, and agricultural regulations. Beyond politics, the episode addresses pressing on-the-ground issues for growers. A BASF interview focuses on weed control lessons from 2025, emphasizing “start clean, stay clean” strategies to manage herbicide resistance, especially against Palmer amaranth. The hosts also raise concerns over unfair import dumping impacting California commodities such as pears, mushrooms, sheep, tomatoes, avocados, and raisins, noting that domestic growers face higher regulatory burdens without a level playing field. The show closes with discussion of water storage, rising gas prices, California's growing budget deficit, stalled high-speed rail projects affecting farmland, and increasing wildlife pressures, including wolves and predators. Throughout the episode, AgNet West reinforces its commitment to advocating for farmers, providing clear context on policy decisions, and keeping agricultural voices front and center.

Rogers for America with Lt. Steve Rogers – Each week, the shutdown wiped out an estimated $15 billion in U.S. GDP. Thousands of Americans became employed. All 50 states faced staggering job losses, reduced consumer spending, and disruptions to vital programs like WIC and SNAP. This is the damage the Democrats did to the American people because they chose politics over YOU!

Today's Headlines: Trump's Asia trip is somehow still going, with his latest stop in Beijing producing no trade deal — but plenty of showmanship. After what he called an “amazing” meeting with Xi Jinping, Trump said China will resume buying U.S. soybeans and pause export limits on rare earth minerals, while the U.S. cuts fentanyl tariffs from 20% to 10%. Missing from the talks: Taiwan, Russian oil, or China's access to Nvidia's AI chips. Also not discussed (but probably should've been): Trump's pre-meeting Truth Social post saying he's ordering the military to restart nuclear weapons testing — something no U.S. president has done since 1992. The Kremlin warned that if Washington breaks the moratorium, Moscow “will act accordingly.” Back in the US, SNAP and WIC benefits for over 40 million Americans are set to expire tomorrow as Senate Republicans blocked emergency funding, while also refusing to let Democrats use USDA contingency funds to keep the programs alive. Meanwhile, coffee might finally get cheaper — Senators Catherine Cortez Masto and Rand Paul introduced a bipartisan bill to repeal Trump's coffee tariffs. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker asked ICE to pause raids in Chicago over Halloween weekend after agents fired tear gas near a kids' parade. The administration also announced it'll cap refugee admissions at 7,500 next year — down from 125,000 — prioritizing white South Africans. The DOJ has reopened an investigation into Black Lives Matter leaders over alleged donor fraud from 2020, despite a prior review finding no wrongdoing. In corporate circus news, OpenAI is reportedly preparing to go public at a trillion-dollar valuation (sure, why not), five more suspects were arrested in the $100 million Louvre jewel heist, and King Charles has officially stripped Prince Andrew of his royal title and booted him from royal property — so long, “Prince” Andrew.

My name is ______.I'm calling to express my alarm that millions of low-income families who rely on SNAP and WIC are at risk of hunger because Republicans refuse to use the contingency funds they have to pay for SNAP. Also millions of Americans may not be able to afford their health insurance policies soon if Congress doesn't agree to a permanent extension of the ACA tax credits. We're running out of time. Republicans need to come back to DC and work with Democrats to pass a bill now to ensure that hungry Americans don't lose their nutritional assistance and working Americans don't lose their healthcare.

Count your days: Government Shutdown Fallout~ Workers Fired, Families Losing SNAP & WIC!

The federal government shut down this week, leaving thousands of federal employees furloughed. Families who depend on WIC and SNAP could also be at risk if the shutdown prolongs. Since President Trump took office, thousands of federal employees have faced layoffs or resigned themselves.  Conversations around a government shutdown brewed in March, but the final straw for Democrats may have been in August. That was when Russell Vought, director of the Office of Management and Budget, said the House of Representatives would withhold $4 billion previously allocated for foreign aid. Trump blames Democrats for the shutdown. Which party will get their desired outcome here?Ezra Klein, a New York Times opinion writer, said that a shutdown may be exactly what Democrats need to regain power of the legislative branch. But could it jeopardize the party's political future?Also this week, President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gathered global military leaders in Quantico, Virginia, sharing their visions for the newly-named Department of War. This comes after 200 National Guard troops were sent to Portland, Oregon because Trump said the city looked like “World War II.” How do active and retired military members feel about orders to enforce the law in American cities?

Impending Shutdown: The country is only “hours away” from a government shutdown, Partisan Blame: The responsibility for the shutdown is Democrats, particularly Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Republican Positioning: Republicans, including Donald Trump, Speaker Johnson, JD Vance, Tom Cotton, and John Thune, are portrayed as wanting a “clean funding extension” (a short-term budget measure) to keep the government open. Democratic Hypocrisy: The commentary highlights past Democratic statements opposing shutdowns, contrasting them with current positions to claim inconsistency. Accusations of Radicalism: Democrats are described as pushing a $1.5 trillion spending package that allegedly includes: Free healthcare for undocumented immigrants Funding for gender-affirming surgeries Open borders and Medicaid fraud Other “radical left” priorities Political Motivation: A recurring argument is that Schumer is resisting compromise to protect himself from a potential primary challenge by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Consequences of Shutdown The episode also notes practical impacts of a shutdown, such as: Federal employees furloughed or unpaid Disruptions for TSA officers, military families, firefighters, veterans, and prison guards Delays in Social Security, SNAP, and WIC benefits Risks to disaster relief and FEMA funding Potential harm to the economy, including billions in costs and possible credit rating downgrades Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
