About this episode

Sean Hannity is joined by Manhattan Institute senior fellow Chris Rufo to discuss Rufo’s investigation into California programs providing benefits to some immigrants, including health care, cash assistance, subsidized phone service and other support. Rufo explains how state-funded programs can operate separately from federal benefit restrictions and discusses the costs associated with California’s policies. Sean also takes calls from listeners about the approaching midterm elections, socialism, changing political attitudes and the increasingly cashless economy.
