About this episode

The episode discusses the MAHA movement's potential shift away from Trump and the GOP, featuring insights from researcher Madeline Peltz.

The coalition of activists known as “Make America Healthy Again,” or MAHA, has emerged as a legitimate force in American politics and it’s hardly a given that they will remain aligned with President Trump and the Republican Party. Researcher and reporter Madeline Peltz returns to Posting Through It to brief us on the MAHA movement and their mission–weighing in on how his diverse group can theoretically be pulled away from the GOP. Madeline, Mike and Jared also analyze the “Netflix Monsters series-coded” life of MAHA’s figurehead, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The DMT, steroids and heroin-riddled political scion once severed off the penis of a raccoon to study it later. It’s obviously a very impressive trick, but what does it say about his capacity to release his bountiful harvest all over the health of your loved ones?
