So even with the tax credits it seems as though the Chiefs owners are unhappy with the tax credit bill that got rammed though in Jefferson City. I know it's shocking! Also on the docket for tonight is the conflict between Israel and Iran, and essentially the United States. Did Israel jump the gun to screw the negotiations and attack even though Trump advised them not to? It's a lot to digest but we'll break it down for you tonight.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/missouri-liberty-report--4329356/support.

So Missouri legislators want to give tax credits to the Royals and Chiefs but don't seem to care that they're taxing Missourians out of their homes. It seems Jefferson City is full of big government Republicans. That seems to be the only explanations. Meanwhile, L.A. riots continue on but their mostly peaceful. Yeah, right.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/missouri-liberty-report--4329356/support.

"Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn says this is one of the most bizarre special sessions he's ever seen. The Senate approved the three proposals in Governor Mike Kehoe's (R) special session call: storm damage, tax incentives aimed at keeping the Chiefs and Royals in Missouri and $50-million for a proposed new research reactor at Mizzou in Columbia. Mr. Faughn appeared live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri", telling hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell that the Senate took orders from Governor Kehoe and from the House and didn't push back. Mr. Faughn also discussed State Sen. Rick Brattin's (R-Raymore) vote for stadium legislation. Faughn tells listeners that that Senator Brattin came back to Jefferson City this year as a different senator who wants to accomplish things. Faughn also criticizes the Freedom Caucus, saying it's a way for trial attorneys to protect their ability to file lawsuits:

A mid-Missouri state senator who is carrying legislation that provides tax incentives to the Chiefs and Royals says $2-billion in economic activity is at stake if the teams leave for Kansas. State Sen. Kurtis Gregory (R-Marshall) represents Cooper and Howard counties in the 939 the Eagle listening area. Senator Gregory joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell on “Wake Up Missouri” this morning to discuss the bill. Meantime, State Rep. Tim Taylor (R-Speed) tells 939 the Eagle that he expects Missouri House committee hearings in Jefferson City on Monday and Tuesday for special session bills and for the Missouri House to be in session Wednesday morning at 10. The Missouri Senate has approved legislation aimed at keeping the Chiefs and Royals in Missouri, along with $50-million in funding to plan and design a new research reactor at Mizzou in Columbia. The Senate has also approved $125-million for tornado and storm relief. Critics call the stadium bill corporate welfare, saying taxpayers shouldn't fund stadiums. Senator Gregory disagrees with that viewpoint:
Missouri Treasurer Vivek Malek (R) has led the effort in Jefferson City to divest from China. He's been pushing Vanguard on the issue as well. Vanguard, the world's second-largest investment firm, has filed paperwork with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to launch its first-ever emerging market fund that deliberately excludes Chinese equities. Treasurer Malek joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell on "Wake Up Missouri":

State Sen. Stephen Webber (D-Columbia) was heard shouting on the Missouri Senate floor in Jefferson City during last week's Senate bill-signings, which are normally routine. He was upset over how President Pro Tem Cindy O'Laughlin (R-Shelbina) handled that day. State Sen. Travis Fitzwater (R-Holts Summit) joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" to discuss the special session and what happened that day. Senator Fitzwater tells listeners that passions are high now, emphasizing that he gets along with Senator Webber and has a lot of respect for him, despite policy disagreements. Senator Fitzwater wants to see a path forward in the Missouri Senate for the special session. He also tells listeners that his proposed constitutional amendment to reduce the Missouri House's size is a worthy policy discussion:

I wanted to share the short audio documentary I created for Flightless Bird about the execution of a quite possibly innocent man, Marcellus “Khaliifah” Williams. I travelled to Jefferson City, Missouri, as both the victim's family and the original prosecutor in the case urged lawmakers to halt the execution — saying terrible mistakes had been made in the case. This was all based on the reporting I did for Webworm back in September last year. Some of you are Flightless Bird listeners and will have heard this already, but I figure plenty of you aren't. I felt proud of how this turned out and wanted to share it with you. It's just the audio documentary — no yapping from any podcast hosts. This reporting wouldn't have been possible without you. So thank you.Finally, I wanted to note that January 20, President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order to implement a federal death penalty. Looking back on my time in Jefferson City, this fills me with fucking horror. This is a public episode.

Missouri lawmakers will return to Jefferson City today for a special legislative session on three major topics: tornado and storm assistance, legislation aimed at keeping the Chiefs and Royals in Missouri and $25-million in funding for a new research reactor at Mizzou. Governor Mike Kehoe (R) tells Capitol reporters that the Chiefs and Royals are Missouri's teams and that they drive billions of dollars in economic activity through tourism, job creation along with hotels and restaurants. The governor says the Show-Me Sports Investment Act will allow the Chiefs and Royals to bond an annual appropriation valued to their current state tax revenues. Kansas lawmakers in both parties have been trying to lure the Chiefs and Royals to the Sunflowers State. State Sen. Nick Schroer (R-O'Fallon) joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" to preview the special session. He tells "Wake Up" that the governor has a great team and that he'll meet with Governor Kehoe's team today to learn details about the Chiefs/Royals bill. Senator Schroer wants to see tax relief included in the special session:
Missouri's 2025 legislative special session begins today in Jefferson City. Governor Mike Kehoe (R) has included a top priority of Mizzou officials in the special session call: $25-million to plan and design a new research reactor at Mizzou in Columbia. Governor Mike Kehoe notes MURR leads the nation in producing critical medical isotopes. The governor notes that when you enter the lobby of the MU Research Reactor (MURR) near Providence in Columbia, there is a digital clock that shows how many lives they save per day by the radioisotopes they develop in MURR. Mizzou officials signed a ceremonial agreement in April to partner with a consortium to build a new 20-megawatt state-of-the-art research reactor near south Columbia's Discovery Ridge. Governor Kehoe's special session call also includes tornado and storm assistance and legislation aimed at keeping the Chiefs and Royals in Missouri. Senate Minority Leader Doug Beck (D-Affton) joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" to discuss the session. Leader Beck wants to see more focus on the storm/tornadol damage. He also tellis listeners there will be three separate bills:
What if the Bible is not just a textbook to conquer or a rulebook to fear… what if it's an invitation? An intimate invitation to a person and presence- truth and reality? In this message Pastor David explores how the Bible is not merely a book of information, but a divine invitation into spiritual formation and transformation through Jesus Christ. The stories we believe shape the lives we live—and Scripture invites us into the true story/reality
Missouri lawmakers will return to Jefferson City on Monday to take part in a high-stakes special session. Gov. Mike Kehoe wants legislators to pass state relief for tornado victims, some unfinished capital improvement projects, and an incentive package to keep the Chiefs and the Royals in Missouri. Missouri State Sen. Brian Williams, D-University City, discusses the upcoming session and how tensions from the regular session may shape what happens next.

In a world of noise, distraction, and pressure—prayer is resistance. Not resistance by might, but by presence. It's how we push back against isolation, performance, and spiritual drift. This message from Pastor David walks through John 15 and 2 Corinthians 3 to remind us that Jesus doesn't just call us to obey—He calls us to abide. To look, behold, remain, and live. Prayer is not a performance—it's a relational, transforming presence.

Jesus carries our burdens—and calls us to carry the burdens of others. Through His perfect intercession, we've been invited into a holy priesthood, standing in the gap on behalf of those in need. This week, Pastor Nathan teaches us that intercessory prayer is not a task for the spiritually elite—it's a call to love others with compassion, to pray like their pain is our pain, and to trust in the mercy of God.

Lasting change begins when you decide that your well-being matters enough to prioritize. Kiona Sinks returns to share how the Shift Experience didn't just influence her habits—it completely reframed her relationship with herself. From vitamin routines to food choices, energy levels to emotional presence, she's living proof that when you start showing up with intention, everything changes. Her journey reminds us that healing isn't just physical—it's mental, spiritual, and emotional—and when those parts align, you unlock a version of yourself that's not only healthier, but more powerful than you imagined. Key Takeaways: Intentional living creates a ripple effect—when you prioritize small daily choices, everything from energy to clarity improves. Healing is holistic; physical health, mental focus, emotional regulation, and spiritual peace all work together. Creating consistent habits doesn't require perfection—just progress, grace, and awareness of what your body is telling you. Knowing yourself is key to showing up fully in your relationships, work, and purpose-driven life. Investing in your health now prevents burnout later and opens the door to greater impact and alignment.

"Something that I think a lot of us miss is this: In our lives, our love has become transactional. Our love has become very much 'if you do for me, then I'll do for you.' But that's not sacrificial love. That's not the love of Christ."— Jon NelsonToday's Episode: Natalie is talking with Pastor Jon Nelson about loving people outright—not because they've done something to earn it, or because they're easy to love, but because we have been undeservedly loved by Jesus. They discuss the challenges of laying down our prerogatives and our schedules and our stuff to love other people. You'll hear Jon share the profound words of a dying friend, talk about the concept of selflessness and deference, and you'll find out what it means to love someone even when they're "tore up from floor up." Be ready to learn, to be challenged, and to laugh.This month's memory verse: “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.” — 1 John 3:16 Today's guest: Pastor Jon C. Nelson is a native of Kansas City.

Transformation begins the moment you trust yourself enough to ask for help. When Kiona Sinks vulnerably reached out to Dr. Robin, unsure of what was wrong but certain she needed support, she unknowingly sparked the creation of what would become The Shift Experience – Scholarship Program. Her courage and curiosity laid the foundation for a movement that now helps others reclaim their well-being. Through honest reflection, faith, and a deep desire to grow, Kiona shares how embracing discomfort and building community led her into greater alignment with her purpose. Her journey is living proof that healing isn't linear—and the simple act of asking for help can ripple out and change lives. Key Takeaways: Learn how trust and vulnerability can be the doorway to radical personal transformation. Understand the power of community in normalizing healing and offering support through shared experiences.
