Missouri's 2025 legislative session ended with bitter feelings in the Missouri Senate between Democrats and Republicans. The session also included tension between the House and Senate and State Rep. Marlene Terry (D-Florissant) being removed from committees by her own party's leaders because of her vote in favor of school choice. Despite the tension, State Rep. Melanie Stinnett (R-Springfield) is impressed with the work the Legislature did this year, especially in the House. Republican Governor Mike Kehoe will hold an end-of-session press conference at 9 this morning in Jefferson City. Rep. Stinnett says Kehoe could call a special session involving the Chiefs/Royals:

The final budget approved by Missouri lawmakers on Friday did not include $500-million in construction projects across the state. House Budget Committee chairman Dirk Deaton (R-Noel) says it purely was a financial decision. Missouri Senate Appropriations Committee chairman Lincoln Hough (R-Springfield) joined us live on "Wake Up Missouri" and says Chairman Deaton didn't inform state senators about the decision. Chairman Hough says the decision will make getting other bills approved during the final week of the 2025 session that much tougher. Chairman Hough says he's received messages of frustration from Missouri House and Senate colleagues over the House decision. He says $50-million for Mizzou's second research reactor that battles cancer is now not funded, along with repairs at the Dent County sheltered workshop and at a foster care building in Bates County:

Missouri's Constitution requires Missouri lawmakers to approve a balanced budget by Friday. While the GOP has supermajorities in both legislative chambers, there are still a number of uncertainties.

Senator O'Laughlin says parents need the best opportunity for their children with education:

The Missouri Senate discussed/ debated open enrollment legislation for more than four hours on Wednesday. State Sen. Curtis Trent (R-Springfield), a vocal supporter of open enrollment, joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri." He describes open enrollment as common sense and says it would make a difference in children's lives across the state. He also says there are academic reasons why some parents want to change schools, and says it would help with bullying cases as well. The Missouri House has approved open enrollment. There are GOP opponents to the bill in both chambers, as well as opposition from Democrats. Critics say it would hurt public schools. Supporters disagree with that:

Jefferson City's approximately 14,000 state employees will receive a pay increase in July. The only question is how much they'll receive. Missouri Senate Appropriations Committee chairman Lincoln Hough (R-Springfield) joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" this morning. Chairman Hough notes the Senate has approved a one percent pay increase for state employees for every two years of service, up to ten percent. Chairman Hough emphasizes the importance of retaining state employees. During the live interview, he also expressed frustration with a computer system that crashed on Tuesday, impacting the Missouri Senate. Chairman Hough didn't mince words during the interview, saying taxpayers have paid $250-million for a computer system that's not working. He also talked the 404 error on his computer:

There were no serious injuries or deaths from Wednesday's tornado that struck mid-Missouri's Pilot Grove. The tornado struck the Katy Manor nursing home, and downed power lines on and near Highway 135. The National Weather Service (NWS) in Pleasant Hill had a survey team in Pilot Grove by Wednesday afternoon. The NWS in Pleasant Hill says it was an EF-2 tornado with 135 mile per hour winds. The tornado was on the ground for six miles. State Rep. Tim Taylor (R-Speed), who represents Pilot Grove in the Legislature, tells 939 the Eagle that neighbors helped neighbors after the tornado. State Sen. Kurtis Gregory (R-Marshall), who also represents Pilot Grove, agrees. Senator Gregory tells listeners that he's grateful that there were no serious injuries or deaths. Senator Gregory joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" and tells listeners that the sirens did not fire in Cooper County. We also discussed his health care bill, Senate Bill 79. The Missouri Senate has approved it.

Missouri's Senate Bill 4, now awaiting Governor Kehoe's signature, would give utility companies more power to raise rates by charging for projects that don't yet produce energy. Former Senator John Lamping discusses how this bill undermines public control over rates and benefits insiders, including high executive pay. While some provisions could help build new plants, the bill could drastically raise costs for consumers. Lamping predicts the governor will likely sign it. Concerned citizens should contact the governor's office now.

Kim on a Whim: Kim vs Saint Louis Housing Bill. Kim and Marc discuss a new housing bill moving through the Missouri Senate aimed at converting office spaces into housing, with a focus on revitalizing downtown Saint Louis.

The conversation also touches on how regional government plans, championed by likely future mayor Kara Spencer, may further impact the city's future.

State Sen. Karla Eslinger passed on seeking a second term in the Missouri Senate this year. Instead, the former educator now leads the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. She spoke to St. Louis Public Radio's Sarah Kellogg about her goals for the Department.

   We've all watched polling and read and soaked in as much as we possibly can to try to figure out who's going to win the White House next week but now there's something better to watch.  Watch the billionaires and elites.  What they are doing heading to the end of this campaign in unprecedented and under reported.  It's the best sign available of what's about to happen.  Jeff Bezos is the latest to move toward Trump.    Missouri Senate candidate Lucas Kunce' crazy shooting incident gets crazier as the man who held the event drops some whoppers on social media about what went down.    The Chiefs trade for Patriots pass rusher Josh Uche and his former coach, Bill Belichick, will tell us what the Chiefs got.    Salvador Perez wins MLB's highest award and is the first Royal to do so.  What a blessing it has been having this man in Kansas City.    KU hosts Washburn in a basketball exhibition and Bill Self makes a couple comments about a possible red shirt player that could be a sign of just how good KU is this year.

Democrat Patty Lewis and Republican Joey LaSalle are running for Missouri Senate District 7 in western Jackson County. Both candidates joined KCUR's Up To Date to debate who would best represent voters.

Join Jim and Greg as they return to their usual format with three crazy martinis! Today, they discuss the Missouri Democratic U.S. Senate candidate injuring a reporter, Kamala Harris's increasingly implausible defense of Biden's cognitive abilities, and her baffling response when asked about her greatest weakness.First, they are stunned by reports that Missouri Senate candidate Lucas Kunce injured a reporter at a gun event. Kunce, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran running against GOP Sen. Josh Hawley, accidentally wounded the reporter with a bullet fragment after firing an AR-15 at close range. Jim points out that if a Republican candidate injured someone while firing an AR-15, it would be national news for days.Next, they wince as Kamala Harris continues to defend President Biden's cognitive state. Harris insists that she has seen no signs of Biden being incapable of serving, despite growing concerns about his mental fitness. Jim and Greg also discuss Harris's unconvincing reaction to suggestions that Biden's poor debate performance might have ended his re-election campaign.Next, they cringe as Harris continues to defend President Biden's cognitive state and saysshe has not noticed anything to suggest he's incapable of serving. Jim and Greg also discuss Harris's feigned shock that Biden's poor debate performance led to the end of his re-election campaign.Finally, they react to Harris's weak answer during CNN's town hall when asked about her greatest weakness. Instead of a genuine response, Harris claimed her biggest weakness is surrounding herself with smart people, and you can almost hear the eyerolls from Jim and Greg.
