Episode description

Government spending has spiraled out of control, but what if there were common-sense solutions to rein it in without harming essential programs? In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Jeremiah Mosteller, Policy Director for Americans for Prosperity, to uncover shocking examples of federal waste and highlight real reforms that could save taxpayers billions.

From studies on cocaine-addicted rats to misguided Medicaid policies that divert resources away from the most vulnerable, this conversation breaks down how Washington’s spending priorities have gone off track—and what Congress can do to fix it. With the launch of the Department of Government Efficiency and a goal to cut $2 trillion in wasteful spending, this discussion is more timely than ever.

Tune in to hear why cutting government waste doesn’t mean cutting services—and how smart policy changes can protect both taxpayers and those who need help the most.
