Summary

This week on Something Ain’t Right, we shine a spotlight on EviCore—the company quietly working behind the scenes to make sure your insurance coverage gets the big fat denial stamp. With major American insurers relying on their “services,” 1 in 3 insured Americans are getting handled—and not in the good way.

Next, let’s pump the brakes on the media’s applause for Harvard supposedly “standing up” to the Trump administration. Because apparently, they did hand over data to the Department of Homeland Security, and oh look—the administration conveniently tweaked the name of the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. It’s almost like words don’t mean what they used to.

And finally, if you’re looking for the most ‘suss’ thing happening in Washington, direct your attention to Trump’s cabinet. Attorney General Pam Bondi recently claimed that Trump saved the lives of over 258 million Americans—most of them in less than 24 hours. Truly remarkable, if only reality worked that way.

If it doesn’t seem right, it belongs on Something Ain’t Right. Tune in, and let’s break it all down—with the proper side-eye.
