Episode Description

Social Security is projected to become insolvent in 2032, potentially triggering an automatic 24% reduction in benefits unless Congress acts.

Ryan Welton sits down with congressional candidate John Croisant for a wide-ranging discussion about what that deadline means, possible bipartisan solutions, and why the issue deserves far more attention than it's getting.

They also cover:

  • Why Social Security is approaching insolvency

  • Competing proposals to keep the program solvent

  • The latest developments involving Iran and U.S. foreign policy

  • An ICE shooting in Houston and questions surrounding accountability

  • The importance of character in elected office

  • Predictions for the FIFA World Cup
