On today's show Secretary Shulkin joins us for an encore appearance.

David Jonathon Shulkin is an American physician and former government official. In 2017, Shulkin became the 9th United States Secretary of Veterans Affairs and served under President Donald Trump.

Before assuming the top spot at the VA, he served as the Under Secretary of Veterans Affairs for Health from 2015 until 2017, appointed by President Barack Obama.

On March 28, 2018, President Trump in his usual style dismissed Shulkin from his position by tweet.

Since leaving office, and retuning to his life in the private sector, Secretary Shulkin has authored a book chronicling his time at the VA, titled: "It Shouldn't Be This Hard to Serve Your Country: Our Broken Government and the Plight of Veterans".
