About this episode

Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe discusses key political issues including Amendment 3, vehicle inspections, and budget cuts in a wide-ranging interview.

Hour 2 opens with a full lineup preview before diving into a wide-ranging political hour anchored by Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe’s interview. Kehoe discusses Route 66’s 100th anniversary, Billy Long’s upcoming ambassador role, and the major decision looming on whether Amendment 3, initiative petition reform, and income tax changes will land on the August or November ballot. He also weighs in on a Missouri House proposal to raise interstate speed limits to 75 mph and reduce vehicle inspection requirements, stressing safety concerns and legislative tradeoffs while acknowledging frustration with current inspection processes. The conversation extends into state budget negotiations, spending reductions, and assurances that sales tax fears tied to income tax reform are overstated. The hour also touches national political tension, including commentary on rhetoric, political violence concerns raised by Erica Kirk, and criticism of media responses to controversial public statements. It closes with reaction to the Supreme Court’s Voting Rights Act ruling and speculation about Missouri’s congressional map and potential redistricting shifts.
