Get Out in the Fields, Grandma! -Trump Official’s Plan for Medicaid

Hawk discusses the latest surreal proposal from Brooke Rollins, Donald Trump’s former Secretary of Agriculture, who suggested that people at risk of losing Medicaid should consider taking up work on farms. Citing a Fox Business interview, Hawk highlights how Rollins defended her statement by invoking the “dignity of work,” even while referencing elderly and disabled Americans reliant on Medicaid support.

Hawk draws a sharp contrast between the U.S. healthcare system and countries like Israel—where citizens enjoy universal healthcare funded in part by American taxpayers. He calls attention to the absurdity of the argument that vulnerable people should pick strawberries or grow their own chickens in the midst of outbreaks and economic strain.

This episode mixes political satire and cutting commentary as Hawk focuses on how far removed Trump-era policy thinking remains from the lived realities of everyday Americans. It’s a striking moment in current events where humor meets harsh truth, and another clear signal of how the politics of punishment continue to define GOP approaches to government programs.
