In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson unpack major developments from the Iowa Capitol, including the latest version of the property tax reform bill, the advancement of the two-thirds taxpayer protection amendment, and the political shockwave following Governor Kim Reynolds' announcement that she will not seek reelection in 2026.The conversation begins with a look at the latest legislative updates, including a revised property tax proposal that weakens the original 2% cap by adding an inflation factor and raises the homestead exemption. Chris and John discuss their concerns about the complexity of the changes and whether they truly provide tax relief for Iowans—especially given the absence of full data from the state.They then celebrate the Iowa Senate's passage of the two-thirds supermajority constitutional amendment to raise taxes, a longtime taxpayer protection goal. The amendment's path forward in the Iowa House is promising, and the hosts emphasize its importance for long-term fiscal restraint.The second half of the episode pivots to the 2026 open governor's race following Reynolds' announcement. Chris and John preview what will likely be a crowded Republican primary, mentioning potential candidates including Brenna Bird, Matt Whitaker, Ashley Hinson, Mike Naig, Bobby Kaufmann, Pat Grassley, and Bob Vander Plaats. On the Democratic side, Auditor Rob Sand appears to be consolidating early support.The hosts reflect on Governor Reynolds' legacy—from the flat tax and school choice to budget surpluses and COVID-era leadership—and frame the discussion around what Iowans should look for in the next governor: conviction, courage, electability, and a proven ability to deliver conservative results.

We discuss the potential for change with figures like Matt Whitaker, Pete Hegseth, and Tulsi Gabbard possibly taking key roles in a future Trump administration. Additionally, we examine the emergence of new alliances within the Republican electorate and the shifts in voter demographics.

He describes himself as an “imperfect follower of Christ,” who was driven into public service through his faith.

He has since gone on to become one of the most impactful diplomats in American history. As the U.S. Ambassador to Germany, Ric advanced President Trump's America First policies, facing down international foes like Iran and Hezbollah.

Matt Whitaker is the former acting U.S. Attorney General under the Trump administration. Brent Buchanan is the president of Cygnal polling with the latest data from April.  Sean and Matt Whitaker sit down to talk about the Trump 'hush money' case. Can president Trump get a fair trial in New York? With the judge's daughter earning nearly $100M promoting Donald Trump's indictment, a voting base that swings 70% in Biden's favor and 60% of potential jurors surveyed saying Trump was guilty before the trial began, the answer is NO. Between Judge Merchan donating to Biden and his daughter's democratic business relationships, he is clearly ideologically bent to punish Trump and his supporters. Trump will most likely need to win this in the NY court of appeals. Next, Brent Buchanan shares recent polling data to determine if the Trump trial is affecting his polling numbers. With inflation and illegal immigration the biggest issue on voters minds, Brent shares how this data breaks down amongst voting subsects. Right now there are 19% 'ticked-off, diverse, working class' voters leaning towards Trump but might vote RFK Jr. in protest. Find out how Brent thinks all this will shake out!
