Trump is working GOP Senators hard with phone calls and promises in order to get support for his so called Big Beautiful Bill. Though it narrowly passed in the House, moderates and far right-conservatives in the Senate are a big question mark. Republicans are already seeing some pushback after Elon Musk expressed disappointment in the debt this bill will bring. We'll talk about all of it with Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston. A new take on an old mystery from the days of the Civil War.

Today's Headlines: Over Memorial Day weekend, a judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration's move to bar Harvard from admitting international students, after the school sued over sweeping demands for protest-related records involving 7,000 students. Another judge struck down Trump's executive order targeting the law firm Jenner & Block, citing constitutional violations. A lesser-known provision in Trump's House-passed “Big Beautiful Bill” drew alarm for limiting courts' ability to enforce their own rulings unless plaintiffs can afford to post financial bonds. In international news, a U.S.-German citizen was charged with attempting to firebomb a U.S. embassy office in Tel Aviv. He had posted threats online and left behind a backpack of Molotov cocktails. Trump briefly reignited a trade war Friday, threatening steep tariffs on EU goods and smartphones, before walking it back after weekend talks. The Treasury also announced it will stop circulating new pennies by 2026, saving $56 million a year. FEMA denied North Carolina's request for $2 billion in hurricane cleanup funds. Meanwhile, the Pentagon accepted a Boeing 747 from Qatar to serve as a temporary Air Force One, and the Army will throw Trump a $90 million military parade for his 79th birthday.

U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) talks about her work in Washington, particularly her initial response to Donald Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill', which just passed the House.
The Big, Beautiful bill has passed through the house, that's the good news. Now wait until you hear what the Senate has to so. Here we go. An Islamic extremist terrorist kills a Jewish couple that worked at the Israeli embassy as they were leaving work Wednesday night in DC. This is a horrific story and reinforces what America's position should be. Long time Fox 4 anchor Phil Witt has written a thoughtful column about hunger in KC that deserves our attention. The Royals bullpen pitches the whole game in a win over the Giants and Salvy moves up the home run list for catchers. NFL owners keep the tush push play, Colts owner Jim Irsay dies and Jacque Vaughn signs on to work with Bill Self. It's obvious Vaughn is the odds on fave now to replace Self some day.

Tara dives deep into the political betrayal behind the latest Republican-backed spending bill, the bond market's warning signs, and why blind loyalty to Trump could be dangerous. Fast food tricks, fiscal cliffs, and unfiltered truth—this one has it all.
Almost all Americans benefit, most with even lower tax burdens that what they currently pay and the only people who don't benefit are upper income earners.

We remember the great George Wendt, America's favorite barfly, Norm Peterson on Cheers. Wendt had all kinds of ties to Kansas City and is remembered as a great family man and one of the all time great characters in the history of television. While Trump was working on Cap Hill for the Big Bill, he kept bringing up Joe Biden's auto pen signatures and it's pretty clear now a huge investigation is about to begin. Who exactly ran our country the last four years? Victor Davis Hanson, on a podcast, muses that Kansas City could be a new destination for the FBI to have headquarters outside DC. If true, this could be thousands of jobs here. The Royals have another weak night at the plate and fall to the Giants, 3-2. KU is having an incredible baseball season and their coach has just won a huge award. And an incredible, global cycling event is here this holiday weekend and it sounds like the toughest event ever.

In this revealing episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Chris Paul dive deep into the carefully timed release of Biden's terminal prostate cancer diagnosis and the suspiciously aligned political narratives swirling around it. From the Her tapes and AutoPen scandal to Delaware's sudden euthanasia law, the hosts argue Biden is being prepped as a fall guy to shield the regime from broader corruption exposure. They discuss Trump's Truth Social posts on Biden as a puppet, the erosion of executive legitimacy, and Christina Bobb's bold take on testing AutoPen pardons. Pivoting to policy, they unpack Trump's “Big Beautiful Bill,” loaded with tax cuts, work requirements, and deficit reduction, while questioning the urgency and structure of its rollout. The duo applauds the Senate's surprise unanimous vote to eliminate taxes on tips and critique the bureaucratic waste exposed in the Department of Energy and Kennedy Center funding. Guest commentary from Elon Musk at a global summit adds extra heat, Musk warns of media manipulation, political violence, and globalist-backed sabotage. This episode connects the dots between financial corruption, narrative control, and symbolic communication. With humor, insight, and righteous skepticism, CannCon and Chris Paul paint a picture of a regime in retreat and a movement gaining momentum.

We open with Energy Secretary Chris Wright discussing moves to make America the number one exporter of LNG in the world and bringing energy costs down. China is already seeing big problems and it's only going to get worse. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent lays out the exact agenda taking place. India has now come forward with a zero tariffs off on auto parts, steel and pharmaceuticals. We then spend time with the NBC News interview of Donald Trump on Meet the Press with Kristen Welker. It adds a backdrop to show how mentally agile Trump is and how negative and slanted the Legacy/mainstream media continues to behave. Trump also mentions how Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) is a low-IQ person. DHS has announced a plan to fly people home and provide a $1000 stipend for any illegals who self-register and self-deport. This is a 70% cost savings versus the costs for normal arrest, detention and deportation. As to the cartels, Trump confirms he has offered the Mexican government assistance from the US Military in getting rid of the cartels. So, CNN goes to interview members of the cartels to see how they feel about it. NPR and PBS both believe their news is straight down the line, and, to an extent, they are correct, if they mean the left side of the page. Speaker Mike Johnson assures us the reconciliation bill is moving forward. And, finally, the NIH has announced they will no longer be using puppies in their testing procedures.

Sitting on a frontage road perched above the interstate, hemmed by roads and nondescript government buildings near the Capitol, 12th and Robert streets in St. Paul isn't much to look at. But in 1903, this was the place to be if you loved baseball. There, the St. Paul Saints and the St. Paul Colored Gophers — two of the city's historic baseball teams — played at the Pillbox, sometimes called the “Downtown Ball Park,” a popular venue almost laughably small for baseball."It was a tiny ballpark,” said Stew Thornley, a local baseball historian who's seeking approval this year for a plaque to commemorate the Pillbox and its history in St. Paul."Even if you hit a ball over the fence, right down the line, it was worth only two bases,” he said. “There were another set of poles out to left and right center field. You had to get it more to center field and over the fence for it to be considered a home run."Home plate faced northwest, at what would be the site of the state Capitol, which was completed in 1905, two years after the Pillbox opened.While the Saints history is well-known, historians say the Colored Gophers were key to the history of Black baseball in Minnesota and across the country. They played a decade before the formation of the Negro Leagues."They are probably one of the greatest baseball teams, white or Black, in Minnesota history,” said Frank White, who wrote a book about Black baseball history in Minnesota. "And in terms of Black baseball, they are, for sure, the team.” MPR News The history of black baseball in Minnesota Starting in 1907, the St. Paul Colored Gophers wrapped up a four-year run with a 380-89-2 record — winning more than 80 percent of their games — under legendary team owner Phil “Daddy” Reid, according to the Center for Negro League Baseball Research.Reid sought the fastest ball players he could find from around the country and paid them. The result was dominance, White said. The team beat the Saints in a 1907 unofficial state championship. In a series that was called the Black World Series by some, the Colored Gophers hosted Chicago's Leland Giants, one of the best Black baseball teams in the country, for a five-game series at the Pillbox, with Minnesota winning the series three games to two.Among the notable players on the Gophers were "Steel Arm” Johnny Taylor, William "Big Bill" Bill Gatewood and Bobby Marshall, who had played football for the Minnesota Gophers. Marshall happened to be one of the most famed Minnesota athletes at the time.Telling ‘the hidden history of Black baseball'After the 1910 season, Bobby Marshall bought the St. Paul Gophers. The team changed its name to the Twin Cities Gophers. The ballpark on Lexington Avenue near University Avenue became more popular and the Pillbox soon closed. It's such a distant memory that it has been forgotten by most.But not by Thornley. He has applied to put up a memorial plaque next to the Minnesota Department of Health laboratory where the park once stood."It's got greater significance than just to somebody like me who loves baseball, loves the old ballparks,” he said.“The chance to tell the story, the story of baseball, the story of the ballpark, but especially with the hidden history of Black baseball … many people here in Minnesota have been digging that history out and telling those stories. And this is one more way to do that,” Thornley said.He and others have worked to get plaques up at other baseball sites around the Twin Cities. But the application for the Pillbox site is more time-consuming than most. That's because it sits on the Capitol complex and has to go through the Capitol Area Architectural and Planning Board. On top of that, it is the first application received since the board created a new multistep application procedure.The new process was put into place after the Christopher Columbus statue outside the Capitol was torn down by protesters in June 2020. The new process was put into place to make sure there is ample opportunity for public input on things being added or removed to the Capitol grounds. The staff at the Capitol architectural board say the application process for the marker for the Pillbox could take six to eight months, or longer."It's definitely a more involved process,” said Tina Chimuzu, a planning fellow at the CAAPB. She says the board considers many factors in applications, including whether it has public support.“Documented public support for the artwork, and the artwork has to have lasting statewide significance for Minnesotans,” she said. “And then the artwork has to be respectful of the diversity of Minnesotans. And then, does viewing the artwork provide a rich experience to broaden the understanding of Minnesota-shared history, heritage and culture?"Erik Cedarleaf Dahl, executive secretary for the Capitol Area Architectural and Planning Board, said the team works to confirm and fact-check everything in the application. The goal is to learn as much as possible about it in their own research. "With limited space on the Capitol Mall, we want to make sure that what we're putting there is totally accurate, especially if you're going to go through this,” he said. “To ask taxpayers dollars to spend this time on this … we want to make sure that it is accurate and the process is effective."Public input on the application for the Pillbox field plaque is open until May 5.If all goes as planned, the plaque could be up this fall, although it still has several more fences to clear.
