What Is MAHA Right Now -- Is It Working? A Conversation About the Future of MAHA w A Group of Its Supporters
Podcast: Why Should I Trust You?Published On: Thu Sep 03 2026
Description: It’s been two years since Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsed Donald Trump and forged an unlikely alliance between the Make America Healthy Again movement and MAGA. Now, as we head toward the midterms, with Kennedy campaigning for Republican candidates, we’re asking: What is MAHA now? Is it working? Is it a political force, a social force, or has it lost its way? To hear from supporters about where they see the movement heading, we’re joined by Zen Honeycutt, Aaron Everitt, Elizabeth Frost, Jeff Hutt and Mark Harris. Each has been deeply involved in or closely aligned with MAHA, including several who worked on Kennedy’s presidential campaign. They represent very different priorities and hold different views of where the movement has gone. Some remain committed; others have grown disillusioned or walked away. We’re also joined by former Congressman Tim Ryan, a longtime Democrat, who held MAHA-congruent positions on food and agriculture years before MAHA was a slogan on a hat. Where does he see the movement going from here? And then there’s the bigger question: If roughly four in ten Americans support many of the aspirations behind MAHA, what does that foreshadow for the future of our politics?Hosts:Brinda AdhikariTom JohnsonMaggie BartlettDr. Mark Abdelmalek (off)Guests:Zen Honeycutt, Moms Across AmericaJeff Hutt, former National Field Director, Kennedy CampaignAaron Everitt, former Kennedy Campaign volunteerElizabeth Frost, MAHA OhioMark Harris, former Kennedy campaign supporterformer Congressman Tim Ryan (D-OH)Thanks for listening!
