Lemonada. This is Sarah Stewart Holland. And this is Beth Silvers. You're listening to Pantsview

Politics. Today we're talking about Medicaid. As Republicans try to enact their agenda through one big beautiful bill, when it comes to Medicaid, they're facing some tough realities financially and a philosophical dilemma. Who are Republicans for? And what is their promised voters? We're going to break down those questions today. And then outside of politics, we are often asked how we manage to talk about issues

like this all day, every day, and stay sane, happy, focused, productive. There are lots of answers

to that question, but one of them is leaning into more creative work. So both of us, plus Elise and

Maggie, have been writing more over the past few months. We're going to tell you about that at the

end of the show.

But first, we are celebrating 10 years of Pantsu Politics, and we have reached that milestone for one very simple reason.

Listeners, consistent financial support. Book deals come and go. Speaking gigs can disappear.

And the ad apocalypse can and has come for us at Pantsuit Politics. We are here 10 years later putting out episodes twice a week because of all of you who financially support the show. That's it.

We really try to honor that support by making a lot to thank you and to make your investment in us worth it. Sarah breaks down the headlines every morning. I go into a single issue in

something very special for this summer to lure you over to our community. We are going to do

30 days of meditations on reimagining citizenship. It's going to begin on June 5th. They're going to be

very short two to five minutes every day. They're going to end on July 5th. They're going to be very short two to five minutes.

Every day, they're going to end on July 4th.

We're going to refill our proverbial tanks that have been pretty emptied by the last few months, years, and reflect on our role as citizens that connects us all one to each other.

And we're going to have some fun.

Our beloved longtime listener and executive producer Norma, who is also known as the driest wit in every comment thread, is bringing the Pantsuit Politics Film Club to the Spice Cabinet.

She has selected six films in complementary pairs. We'll talk about them over the

course of the summer in three different chats. The first two are good ones, women talking and 12
