Paul recently sat down with KOAT Channel 7 to discuss New Mexico's $6 billion in unspent capital outlay funds. He discusses why it is an issue and what he believes should be done about it. NPR: left leaning Texans are moving to New Mexico. New Mexico is corrupt, but lack of economic freedom is a primary cause, not the effect. New Mexico's "clean fuel standard" takes another step towards implementation. The US Senate has voted to overturn California's EV mandate (which is what NM is working under). The bill now heads to Trump's desk.  Paul to participate in panel discussion on Trump tax cuts/reform. RGF to host event on decline in NM's economic freedom. Paul and Wally recently watched a video series about New Mexico by a YouTuber named Nick Johnson. The video on Santa Fe is particularly interesting and funny.

Earlier this month the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio was also made President Trump's National Security Advisor. The last person to undertake both roles simultaneously was Henry Kissinger in the 1970s. The son of Cuban immigrants, Mr Rubio has had a turbo-charged career; rising from junior positions in his home city of Florida, to the US Senate which he reached before he turned 40 and now a Cabinet position where he dominate US foreign policy.As a boy he dreamed of being President and he made his first attempt in 2016-. The Republican primaries were brutal, with candidates trading deeply personal insults. It was assumed that Mr Rubio's relationship with the eventual winner of that contest - Donald Trump - had been fatally damaged. But they continued their working relationship and today Rubio serves as one of the President's most trusted advisors.Will Marco Rubio be tempted to run once again for the White House?

Ken Paxton is running for US Senate, to replace John Cornyn. Paxton is targeting Latino Democrats legally.For the first time, Trump's approval rating on the economy is low in Texas. This appears to be due to tariffs and other price shocks. Infrastructure for any new manufacturing is being neglected.Part 2:We talk with Bill Curry and Jamie Rowen.Bill Curry was a Connecticut state senator, comptroller and two time Democratic nominee for governor who served as Counselor to the President in the Clinton White House. He has written for Salon, the Daily Beast, the Huffington Post and the Hartford Courant and has provided commentary on National Public Radio, MSNBC and many other news outlets.Dr. Rowen is an associate professor of Legal Studies at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and the founding director of UMass' Center for Justice, Law, and Societies.

NH has now adopted a crypto currency reserve into its budget, the first in the nation to do so, likely to be followed by other states.Cuts to research projects under NIH and other agencies has created a pool of "Research refugees" who are leaving for other countries to continue their research.

On this edition of Political Breakfast, Republican strategist Brian Robinson and Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson join Morning Edition, live, to talk about Governor Brian Kemp's decision not to run for U.S. Senate. The speculation suddenly ended Monday, when the second-term Georgia Governor took to social media, writing: "Being on the ballot next year is not the right decision for me and my family." So then, who is the right person to take on incumbent Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff, who IS running for re-election? Both Brian and Tharon share their theories with host Lisa Rayam. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last week we learned Georgia voters only seem to have an appetite for 'change' in the US Senate if it comes via Governor Brian Kemp unseating Senator Jon Ossoff. Well, unfortunately for the Georgia GOP, Kemp's decided he, nor "Marty and the girls" are up for it. Why? Georgia Recorder op/ed writer Jay Bookman has a few ideas, and he joined me to explain how he correctly predicted Kemp's decision in late 2024 and elaborate further on his (I believe correct) assessment that Marjorie Taylor Greene (already kicking the tires on a Senate run) has no chance to win a statewide election. ------Reverend Senator Raphael Warnock held an Atlanta town hall last weekend, and while the setting (a church) and overwhelming majority of the attendees gave him comfort, there were some vocal pro-Palestinian protestors who sought to be heard.

Angie Craig announced Tuesday she will skip a run for a fifth term and instead throw her hat into the race for U.S. Senate.Craig is among a few prominent DFL candidates hoping to succeed U.S. Sen. Tina Smith in 2026. Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan and former state Senate Minority Leader Melisa López Franzen have also joined the race.

On this episode of the podcast, Michigan Congressman Bill Huizenga discussed President Trump's first 100 days of his second term, highlighting the rapid pace and intentionality of his administration. The Congressman commended Trump's trade policies, particularly the impact on Michigan's manufacturing sector, noting the UAW's support. Rep. Huizenga emphasized the importance of maintaining Republican control in the U.S. Senate and House to continue pushing President Trump's agenda forward. He also touched on the president's foreign diplomacy, citing recent peace deals with Rwanda and Congo, along with praising him for his direct approach when handling international relations. The lifelong Michigan Republican expressed great interest in running for the open U.S. Senate seat, stressing the need to keep the legislative majority in the control of the GOP to prevent a return to the gridlock of 2019.You can learn more about the Congressman, or simply keep up with him by following either of his accounts on X: @BillHuizenga or @RepHuizenga.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
