This week, Miles and Dr. Rob are joined by special guest Sarah Ewall-Wice from The Daily Beast, whose reporting has raised urgent questions about President Trump’s health. Together, they unpack Trump’s bruised hands and the administration’s terrible attempt at covering it all up. Sarah digs into the red flags that are going up from the administration’s evasiveness around Trump’s health and what it means when transparency is replaced with cover-ups and propaganda.
Miles and Dr. Rob also cover yesterday’s breaking news. Overnight, the CDC seemingly imploded, with top officials resigning or being fired. This leaves the nation’s (and world’s) top health agency gutted just as we head into another fall and winter virus season.
It also wouldn’t be an episode of Paging America without an update from RFK Jr., who announced this week that you can maybe/maybe not get a COVID-19 vaccine this fall after rescinding emergency-use authorizations for COVID-19 vaccines and restricting who qualifies.
