The Two-Tier America: SNAP Cuts, Ozempic Deals & Musk’s Trillion-Dollar Payday

from democracy-ish

While millions of Americans go hungry, the Trump regime is fighting a federal court order to fund SNAP benefits for 42 million people — all while cutting deals with Big Pharma to make Ozempic cheaper for profit, not for patients. Meanwhile, Elon Musk just won approval for a trillion-dollar payday. Mary and the team break down how corporate greed and political cruelty have created a nation where billionaires feast and families starve — and why this fight defines the future of our democracy.
