Hour 1 of The Marc Cox Morning Show comes out swinging and doesn't let up for a second. Three Democratic Socialists just swept New York primaries and they're headed to Congress — and the left is celebrating like it's a revolution. Marc Cox asks the question every common sense American is thinking: where does this end? While the radical left dreams of government-owned grocery stores and rent control fantasies, the mainstream media is simultaneously burying a massive economic win — US manufacturing just hit a four-year high with five straight months of growth, and the Trump economic plan is delivering exactly what was promised. Back home in St. Louis, Kim St. Onge blows the lid off the infuriating Starbucks story where two employees who heroically fought off armed robbers got fired for it, and their lawsuit is finally heading back to court. Then Marc Cox drops the bombshell memo that hit every police chief's desk in St. Louis County this morning — Sam Page's jail is turning away prisoners, twenty-three medical positions are disappearing, and law enforcement is being used as a political pawn in a budget standoff the Democrats created. Former County Police Chief Tim Fitch joins in Hour 2 to break it all down. This is The Marc Cox Morning Show — and Hour 1 is just the opening bell.

Hour 2 of The Marc Cox Morning Show pulls no punches and covers every angle. Marc Cox lays out the jaw-dropping platforms of the three Democratic Socialist primary winners headed to Congress from New York — abolish prisons, abolish ICE, open borders, taxpayer-funded transgender treatments, and one candidate who literally wiped her hands on the American flag. The dirtbag left isn't a fringe movement anymore — it's winning elections. Then the St. Louis Morning Brief brings it home with Kim St. Onge breaking down Sam Page's jail staffing crisis that went into effect at 6 a.m. this very morning, a major Cardinals ownership announcement expected this afternoon, and a Jefferson County school bus driver facing thirty-seven felony counts after blowing a .02. Business reporter Nicole Murray joins to deliver the local and national numbers, including teen summer jobs hitting their lowest point since the 1940s and a bipartisan housing bill heading to President Trump's desk. Then In Other News caps the hour with a runaway driverless Waymo police chase, an Amazon driver who mistook a front lawn for a driveway, and a JP Morgan executive who torched her career over a Knicks trash can. Former County Police Chief Tim Fitch is up next — and you will not want to miss what he has to say.

The Marc Cox Morning Show welcomes the brand new St. Louis County Police Chief Juan Cox — and he wastes zero time getting to the hard stuff. Fresh off his promotion after 30 years rising through the ranks, Chief Cox opens up about the crisis that keeps him up at night — teenage takeovers that pop up faster than his department can respond, repeat juvenile offenders who are back on the street corners before the ink dries on their paperwork, and a family court system that keeps tying law enforcement's hands. He shares a story from his undercover days that will make your jaw drop and tells Marc exactly what he wants to see change. Plus the department is facing budget cuts, an ambitious drone program on hold, and a tax increase on the August ballot. This is the kind of straight talk from law enforcement that conservatives have been waiting to hear — and only The Marc Cox Morning Show delivers it first.

You thought your Wednesday morning commute was rough — try sharing St. Louis County soil with a regenerating, toxin-releasing, hammerhead shark-headed worm straight out of a horror movie. Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge have the full stomach-turning story, plus the one rule you absolutely cannot break when you find one in your yard. Then the good news — St. Louis County has a new police chief, Juan Cox (no relation), and early signs suggest he's the real deal with a track record of actually lowering crime. And just when you thought the stories couldn't get wilder, a St. John man strangled his coworker over a promotion and told police he would have killed her if the manager hadn't walked in. It's the St. Louis Morning Brief on the Marc Cox Morning Show — your one-stop briefing for everything happening in your backyard, and apparently, under it too.

The segment centers on St. Louis County Councilman Dennis Hancock outlining the council's allegations that County Executive Sam Page violated a charter rule barring outside employment, citing SSM work records and reimbursement data as evidence of outside activity beyond his official role. Hancock argues the council has referred the matter to prosecutors and the attorney general after concluding Page's “volunteer work” explanation does not align with employment documentation, raising the possibility of removal from office depending on legal findings. The discussion also touches on broader concerns about transparency, compensation structures, and whether the ongoing legal pressure could accelerate Page's political exit. Hashtags: #StLouisCounty #SamPage #DennisHancock #CountyPolitics #GovernmentOversight #LegalInvestigation #MissouriPolitics
Hour 4 opens with President Trump's comments on Iran, framing internal divisions within the regime between moderates and hardliners as negotiations continue over a rejected peace proposal. Senator Eric Schmitt argues Iran's military position has been significantly weakened, particularly in missile capability and naval strength, and says the administration's priority remains preventing nuclear weapon development while avoiding a prolonged Middle East conflict. The discussion turns to War Powers authority, with Schmitt stating congressional approval is not currently required due to the absence of active hostilities, while reiterating opposition to long-term foreign entanglements and pushing back on criticism from Senator Mark Kelly regarding U.S. munitions stockpiles. The focus then shifts to domestic politics, where Schmitt supports aggressive legal challenges following a Supreme Court-related redistricting ruling, arguing that states like California and Illinois have used unfair mapping practices and suggesting DOJ intervention could reshape congressional balance after the 2030 census. A lighter exchange follows regarding Schmitt golfing with Bryson DeChambeau and President Trump in a pro-am setting. The hour transitions into a major policy dispute over police funding, highlighting a state-controlled police board counter-suing a city over mandated funding levels. That leads into San Francisco's new police contract, which includes multi-year raises and a $25,000 signing bonus aimed at addressing recruitment shortages amid ongoing crime concerns. The segment contrasts these changes with past defund-the-police efforts and points to continued issues like vehicle break-ins as evidence of strained public safety policy outcomes. The hour closes with a developing local political story involving a St. Louis County Ethics Committee meeting reportedly reviewing County Executive Sam Page over allegations related to holding multiple jobs.
