Here are the amendments that you will see on the Nov. 3rd ballot and our position. YES on 6, the rest are tricks.

REPORTER: “Why are you telling your supporters to vote by mail if you think it's fraud?” TRUMP: “I'd rather have them vote in person, but they can vote by mail if they want. But there is a lot of cheating in vote by mail.” REPORTER: “There's no evidence.” TRUMP: “You are fake news.”

Missouri's “Nah, let ’em sink" by deciding it’s just too much trouble to use the optional federal exemptions that help low‑income folks keep Medicaid when they’re hospitalized, have to travel for medical care, or live in places slammed by disasters or high unemployment.

72 days. That's all the House worked because Mike Johnson repeatedly sent members home early when his razor-thin Republican majority ran into trouble on the floor. Even Republican Rep. Ralph Norman wrote on X: "The founders did not envision taking this much time off and still getting paid."

There’s the false accusation from a former state AG who should know better accusing someone of committing a crime based on zero evidence. Then there’s the behavior before, during and after. All of it really shows America what we already knew - Schmitt is scum.

In a unanimous decision, SCOTUS said that state law rules in the case! “In short, as a matter of state law, the 2022 map — not the 2025 map — must be used in the 2026 congressional election,” states the ruling. missouriindependent.com/2026/09/25/u...

I can't help but roll my eyes.when the GOP State Auditor "discover” problems in agencies that have been run by GOP appointees by a GOP‑controlled Legislature for 23+ years. Democratic MO Auditor Nicole Galloway submitted the same findings TWICE during her tenure. The Republicans did nothing.

50 percent tariffs for our beloved neighbor and historic ally, Canada. A red carpet and a military flyover for Communist China’s leader. Donald Trump is a sick man and a danger to America.

It’s a pattern. Republicans voted against paid sick leave in 1993, 2015, 2020, 2022, and even repealed it here in Missouri after voters approved it. They will keep voting against it whenever it comes up.

Well hell…we made this last night, but after this morning’s news, it's gonna have to be updated. Gas is jumping again, which means diesel’s about to spike, which means MO families are about to feel it in their grocery bills. So yeah...the “additional cost” sections just got a whole lot uglier.
