Has the US Slipped into Fascism?

The White House has fired the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Susan Monarez, after only one month in the position. This comes just days after she reportedly clashed with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over his stance on vaccines. Several other top CDC officials announced they were quitting in her wake, leaving the health agency in turmoil. Doctor Fiona Havers is a former CDC official and infectious disease expert, who resigned from her post as a Senior Vaccine Adviser in June, citing concerns about changes to the agency's vaccine processes under Secretary Kennedy. She joins the show to discuss what this all means for public health in America, and for the next pandemic.

Yet Another US School Shooting

Donald Trump suddenly paused his new tariffs today on all effected countries ... with the notable exception of China. Before the pause, China announced plans to raise tariffs on American imports to 84%. Trump retaliated by raising tariffs on China to 125%.

Trying to make sense of all this is Li Yuan, who covers China and its foreign relations for the New York Times. She joins to the program from New York.
