Encore: original airdate 3-27-2025. On today's 'BradCast': Donald Trump's Dept. of Health and Human Services announced it will lay off 20,000 employees across the FDA, CDC, NIH and Medicare/Medicaid, with another 24,000 to be purged at the Defense Department, IRS, and other agencies. The Dept. of Veterans Affairs plans to slash 80,000 employees, many of them veterans, in addition to draconian cuts to veterans' services. Decorated Army veteran and former Congressman MAX ROSE (D-NY) of Vote Vets, the nation's largest nonprofit veterans organization, explains their new ad campaign pushing back against Trump's 'war on veterans' and efforts to privatize the VA, and much more. Republicans are so concerned about upcoming special elections that Trump withdrew Rep. Elise Stefanik's (R-NY) nomination as U.N. Ambassador. Historic fires rage in South Korea. Plus Desi Doyen has our new 'Green News Report.'
