Description

In hour one, Michelle speaks with Micah Niemeier-Walsh, Vice President of AFGE Local 3840, about the Trump administration’s assault on NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) and what it means for worker safety across the country. They discuss the critical role NIOSH plays in protecting workers and the risks of undermining it.

In hour two, Mark and Clayton turn their attention to the judicial branch—examining how its independence is being eroded and how America’s democratic institutions are sliding toward authoritarianism. They unpack recent developments and explore what’s at stake for the rule of law.
