  • Trump Impeachment Calls Grow Louder
    May 22 2019
    Impeachment is having yet another moment on Capitol Hill, as Democrats look for a way to enforce what they consider their constitutional duty to investigate the Trump White House. In a surprise Rose Garden speech Wednesday, President Trump said he could no longer work with Democrats until they stop their investigations into his administration and finances. Meanwhile, Democrats argue impeachment is the answer because he's holding up those investigations. Andrew Mach speaks to Bloomberg News congressional correspondent Billy House about the temper tantrums on both sides of the aisle and the road ahead.

  • Insurers Miss Mark on Mental Health
    May 17 2019
    May is Mental Health Awareness month, but the U.S. is in the midst of a mental health crisis.

  • Trump's Immigration Sales Pitch
    May 16 2019
    President Trump made a Rose Garden speech to roll out his new immigration plan, which was crafted by his son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner. The administration is hoping to overhaul the current U.S. system, shifting it from family based to a merit-based one that prioritizes visas for high-skilled workers, secures the southern border and potentially generates an estimated $500 billion in net federal revenue. Andrew Mach speaks to Bloomberg News White House reporter Justin Sink about what's in the plan and it's likely path forward.
