6-16-2025: Wake Up Missouri with Randy Tobler, Stephanie Bell, John Marsh, and Producer Drake

A summary of the news this week in Northfield, Minnesota. Also a summary of all the action that happened at the Minnesota State Legislature during the Special Session held on Monday to pass the state budget. 

During the just-concluded special session, a bipartisan contingent of Missouri lawmakers were able to get the stadium package across the finish line while also aiding victims of the May 16 tornado. State Sen. Steven Roberts, D-St. Louis, and House Speaker Jon Patterson, R-Lee's Summit, discuss the legislative action. STLPR statehouse and politics reporter Sarah Kellogg also joins the discussion.

Minnesota lawmakers are breathing a bit easier now that they've finally adopted a new budget — roughly $66 billion over the next two years. The Legislature met earlier this week for a special session to get the work done. There were protests, long debates, stories of immigration, but lawmakers managed to pass 15 bills in less than one day. On this special podcast edition of Politics Friday, MPR politics editor Brian Bakst and reporter Ellie Roth take us through the action.Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation. Politics Friday won't be coming to you every Friday this summer but will appear here and there in this podcast feed as events warrant.  Rest assured, we'll be back to a more-regular cadence this fall.  Subscribe to the Politics Friday podcast on: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or RSS.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: There is a push from the Trump camp for Texas to consider mid-decade redistricting to aid in picking up more Republican seats in Congress. The rumor that such might be considered has been around for a while but now there has been a meeting of Texas Republican members of Congress to discuss such. At present there is not much enthusiasm for such and it comes with big risks. At present, under current conditions, I don't expect much to come of it but, if Governor Abbott were to get aboard, he'd be the one to set it in motion with a Special Session call which would need to be in July, or the very earliest days of August fit time constraints.The New York Times broke the story: White House Pushes Texas to Redistrict, Hoping to Blunt Democratic Gains Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.City of Abilene officials looking to make home ownership that much more out of reach with another property tax increase. Has anyone actually run the numbers to demonstrate a total net savings, over principal and interest costs, from the proposed “energy improvements?” Most often these things do not produce a net savings.So much of the reporting on arrests by ICE is cleverly misleading propaganda. This Houston Chronicle story is an example: ICE agents arrest 3 people at southwest Houston immigration court. I explain why it is misleading to most as well as why the objections are silly.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.
