John talks about the many ways Trump is raking in big cash despite the Emoluments Clauses which are two provisions in the Constitution designed to prevent corruption by federal officials from foreign and domestic sources. Then, he welcomes back Rev. Barry Lynn to discuss the intersection of religion and current politics. And then, on the eve of Thanksgiving, John speaks with Jenique Jones who is WhyHunger’s Executive Director. She makes sure its policies, culture and practices best fulfill WhyHunger’s mission to end hunger and ensure everyone’s basic human right to nutritious food. With a diverse background working in government and nonprofits, spanning the New York State Senate, the NYC Department of Education, and City Harvest, Jenique has been steadfast in her mission to improve the lives of marginalized and underserved populations and make a difference in the world.
About WhyHunger’s Hungerthon:
- 2025 marks WhyHunger’s 40th Hungerthon. Each year, we bring together thousands of supporters across the U.S. with listeners at SiriusXM and artists like Bruce Springsteen, Yoko Ono Lennon and SAINt JHN who believe in our shared vision of a hunger-free future!
- Hunger in America is surging. 47 million people – including 14 million children – don't get enough to eat. That’s a staggering number in the world’s wealthiest nation, and this crisis isn’t slowing down.
- With devastating recent federal cuts threatening to strip food assistance from 22.3 million families, and 42 million SNAP recipients reeling from the Government shutdown, support for WhyHunger’s Hungerthon has never been more critical.
- A Hungerthon donation has a powerful dual impact—delivering immediate nourishment to those in need and powering community solutions that work, long-term. A hunger-free tomorrow starts with all of us, today.
