4:23Now PlayingTrump’s Budget Chief Russ Vought Fires Thousands — Including CDC Disease Experts
Hawk discusses the stunning news that Donald Trump’s Office of Management and Budget Director, Russ Vought, has reportedly fired over 4,000 federal workers across seven major agencies. Among those targeted were leading scientists and disease experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), including leadership for global health, respiratory disease, and immunization programs.
Hawk focuses on how these firings could deeply affect America’s public health response, as critical units like the CDC’s forecasting and analytics division and its disease detective corps were eliminated overnight. The conversation also turns to the Department of Education, where the entire Office for Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and the Office of Special Education were reportedly gutted — leaving millions of families uncertain about access to essential support programs.
With characteristic humor and sharp political insight, Hawk examines what these decisions mean for democracy, government accountability, and everyday Americans who depend on public institutions. It’s a sobering, funny, and thought-provoking look at a government that seems to be tearing down its own foundations.
