They’re Out of Their Census (Hour 1)

A western Wisconsin doctor is part of an online video series with Pete Buttigieg, talking about how President Trump’s Medicaid cuts put rural health care into a death spiral. Also: Trump’s disdain of the US Constitution was on display this week in his insistence that a new census be taken that only counts citizens. That is not how a census works, unless of course you’re into people being invisible and being “disappeared.” Meanwhile, two more red states say they’re willing to engage in corrupt cartography. And count JD Vance as one of those “small government” Republicans, until he needs something—like the Corps of Engineers to raise the water levels on an entire river so he and his buddies can go kayaking. Plus: Big news about zucchini.
