Podcast appearances and mentions of Eric Schmitt

Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt is a lawyer, former state attorney general and a skilled navigator of the old — and new — wings of the Republican Party. He also has another title: White House whisperer.  Schmitt joins POLITICO's Dasha Burns to talk about his closeness with the Trump administration, driving the Senate's $9.4 billion rescissions bill, his involvement with passing Trump's “big, beautiful bill,” his belief in Medicaid reform, the controversy over the release of the Epstein files and what he describes as his “America First” — but not isolationist — foreign policy approach.  “I think a slur that's often uttered is that it's an isolationist point of view,” Schmitt told Burns. “That's not true at all.” (Note: This interview was conducted before the Senate and House passage of the rescissions bill.) Plus, POLITICO reporter Ben Jacobs digs into his reporting on social media influencers running for office and how the phenomenon is reshaping electoral politics.  Listen and subscribe to The Conversation with Dasha Burns on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

It was a spectacular weekend for President Trump and his agenda. The big, beautiful bill has passed and been signed into law. As B-2 bombers flew over the White House, President Trump made it official on the 4th of July. It was Jd Vance that put the tying vote over in the Senate to pass the bill 51-50. Senator Eric Schmitt is here with us to discuss the big, beautiful bill and what it means for Americans. American families can expect to see an extra $10,000 in take-home pay each year, no tax on tips, no tax on overtime and no tax on Social Security. Senator Schmitt walks us through the OBBB, including finishing the border wall, permanent tax cuts and changes in Medicaid. The bill will help to reduce the deficit as the reconciliation package takes effect, the growth of the U.S. economy, new trade deals and revenue coming in from tariffs.

This week, Chris and Matt return for an emergency deep dive on Operation Midnight Hammer, the largest US strike on Iran since 1979. They break down what the bombing raid and actually achieved, why initial White House claims of “obliterating” Iran's nuclear program don't hold up to scrutiny, and what the intelligence community's more cautious battle damage assessments reveal. They also unpack the legal debate around preemptive strikes, Israel's unfinished campaign against Iran, and the risk of a new status quo in which these strikes become routine. Plus, Denis Villeneuve takes on Bond, and Chris dares to revisit the great “blonde Bond” panic of 2005.

6-24-2025: Wake Up Missouri with Randy Tobler, Sammi Tobler Gregory, John Marsh, and Producer Drake

U.S. Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Missouri) is praising Saturday's successful attack by the U.S. military on three nuclear sites in Iran … in Fordow, Natanz and Esfahan. The B-2 stealth bombers that dropped the bombs are based at Whiteman Air Force Base near western Missouri's Knob Noster. Senator Schmitt, who serves on the Senate Armed Services Committee, joined Randy and Sammie Tobler live this morning on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri." Senator Schmitt tells listeners that he plans to travel to Knob Noster to thank the Whiteman B-2 pilots in-person. Senator Schmitt also praises President Trump, saying his instinct is peace and not endless war. Senator Schmitt describes Saturday's attacks as surgical and tactical:

President Donald Trump's high-profile immigration raids have sparked protests across the country and even prompted some Republicans to question whether the strategy is misguided. But Missouri U.S. Sen. Eric Schmitt says Trump is carrying out a campaign promise to deport people who are in the country without legal status. He also said that critics of the president are being inconsistent, pointing to how Democratic presidents like Barack Obama deported millions of people when he was in office. Schmitt also downplayed Trump's rift with Elon Musk.

On the latest episode of the Politically Speaking Hour on St. Louis on the Air, STLPR's Jason Rosenbaum talks to U.S. Sen. Eric Schmitt about protests over Donald Trump's immigration enforcement methods – and so called Big Beautiful Bill. Rosenbaum also talks with Democratic Sen. Steven Roberts and House Speaker Jon Patterson about the just concluded special session. And he also discussed with STLPR's Sarah Kellogg whether the bipartisan spirit of the extra time in Jefferson City can last.

Who has the advantage on the all-important immigration issue? And how have a week of riots and deportation raids changed the landscape? Charlie explains how President Trump's bold stand has changed American attitudes over the past decade and over the past week. Sen. Eric Schmitt discusses his clash with Mexico's president over remittances. Get the new "This is What We Voted For" merch today at charliekirkstore.com!

That is why the new State Department started out with only five employees while the Treasury Department had 40. When Alexander Hamilton became the nation's first Secretary of the Treasury, he immediately began to prepare a schedule of tariffs, along with excise taxes on such commodities as alcohol and tobacco. The Constitution forbids taxing the exports of any state, and so American tariffs have always been laid only on imports. Collectors were named for each port, and these were considered plum jobs because the collector got to keep the money, earning interest on it, until it was forwarded to the federal government a few times a year. Hamilton's tariffs, along with the refunding of the national debt and the establishment of a central bank, transformed the American financial situation. By the end of the 1790s, the U.S. had the best credit rating in Europe, its bonds selling over par. By 1800, federal revenues, a mere $3.7 million in 1792, had nearly tripled to $10.8 million. About 90 percent of that revenue came from tariffs—a ratio that wouldn't change much, except during the Civil War, for more than a century. *** Hamilton's tariffs had been solely for the purpose of raising re...

The Signal chat/Yemen air strike story is all the left has, and it's not going well for them. Listen to the Republicans - on live television - not just grow huevos - but throw them around and punch back! Doug Collins, Kash Patel, Eric Schmitt, Brandon Gill, Jim Jordan, John Ratcliffe - ALL with devastating Democrat take downs today. As Democrats sink, Republicans appear to be just warming up.

We take a deep look at the fallout from what national security experts are calling one of the most extraordinary intelligence lapses in U.S. history. On Monday Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg reported that he'd been mistakenly included on an unsecured group chat with senior national security officials as they disclosed plans to attack Yemen. The Atlantic published more of the exchange on Wednesday, while the Trump administration downplayed the blunder and top intelligence officials testified before the House lawmakers. We discuss the national security implications with reporters Eric Schmitt and Garrett Graff.
