The background of surgeon general nominee Casey Means

Season 2025 Episode 141 | 6m 29s

The White House is expected to release a report about potential contributing factors of childhood diseases. It’s leading to renewed questions about the “Make America Healthy Again” agenda championed by President Trump and HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Another voice central to the movement is Dr. Casey Means, Trump’s pick for surgeon general. Ali Rogin looks at Means’ background.
