What a president eats can tell you a lot about the man. What he serves to people at the White House is also revealing. All that is the subject of a new book by Alex Prud’homme,  Dinner With The President: Food, Politics, and a History of Breaking Bread at the White House. You can buy it here. Prud’homme is the author, with his great aunt Julia Child of My Life in France,  a New York Times bestseller and the inspiration for half of the movie Julie and Julia. He's also written several important nonfiction books so he is well positioned to look at food and politics at the White House.Today Bill again highlights the work of Jose Andres’ World Central Kitchen.

Remember when Rick Perry wanted to abolish the Energy Department? And then became the Energy Secretary under Donald Trump? He said after he got there that there was a lot the Energy Department did that he didn't know about. Here's what the Energy Department does: It manages the United States' nuclear infrastructure, administers the country's energy policy and funds scientific research in the field. And it's become even more important today with the passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill and the Inflation Reduction Act which Authorized billions of dollars relating to energy policy and energy infrastructure. Sitting at the top of the Department is former Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm. Bill talked to Secretary Granholm last week before a live audience at the Hill Center on Capitol Hill.Today's Bill Press Pod is supported by the United Food and Commercial Workers Union.
