DOGE & KC in Focus, Trump Meeting CEO's, Illegals Leaving in Droves, KU Runner Wins Boston Marathon, Chiefs Draft Prowess, Photo of Year

A local story has gone national and maybe global and it's about KC. It seems we are some sort of huge federal government hub and didn't know it. Worse yet, DOGE is apparently destroying our city. Only one problem, the facts don't back any of this up yet. Still, people in other places will believe we are getting crushed. You have to hear this. President Trump is holding meetings at the White House with big retail CEO's. The president is obviously concerned his tariff policy is about to hurt the A...

A day after meeting with Vice President JD Vance, Pope Francis has died at age 88. We'll discuss what this means not only for the Catholic Church but global politics as well. Trump's Easter post on Truth Social got all the headlines Sunday but a post later in the day is the one I want to focus on. It could be the simplest and most brilliant thing he's every penned. Representative Nancy Mace unloads on a voter in a retail store and it was a total embarrassment for her. This is NOT the way to hand...

China's Final Raise, Hollywood Cut Off, Hawley Having Fun, Pharma Moving to USA, R's Hit Road, Master Pee Break, Song of Week

China raised tariffs over night to 125% and says that's the highest they will go as it essentially cuts off all products moving from the USA to China and they cut off Hollywood films. Again, so what? We don't send much to China and our films are 3% of their film industry as they already kept American culture out of their country. Josh Hawley is having fun with all this from the political side as he says libs know this is the right play but have a hard time saying anything nice about Trump. We al...

Supremes Back Trump, Sen. Moran is Problem, Stephen A. Smith for Prez, Lezak's Back, Royals Rolling, Gators Bite Houston, NCAA Salary Cap Close

The Supreme Court has ruled that low level judges without a case before them can no longer stop the President from doing his job. This is a big one but it begs the question. Is it worth it for Dems to fight this president when you know these rulings are this easy for Trump to win? Kansas Senator Jerry Moran is increasingly a problem for Trump as he's now joining other Republicans to try to slow this president down. Kansans need to be heard. Stephen A. Smith from ESPN says he's no longer ruling o...

Discount Tariffs Set, "Do Not Retaliate," FBI on Win Streak, R's Bats Weak, Chiefs Schedule News, Klieman Spits Truth on CFB, Barkley Misses Mark, Stock Goes Wild

Trump used a chart to show the world what his "discount tariffs" will be with about 60 countries not named Canada and Mexico. It's more than fair and the message from the White House is... "do not retaliate" as it will not go well for you. Let's go! The FBI is on a winning streak picking up bad people all over the land. Over 40 illegal gang bangers were grabbed in Texas on the same day it was announced applications to become an agent set a new record for the FBI in March. The Royals got plenty o...

The Bob Fescoe Fiasco is one of the most embarrassing sports radio messes in memory as his report the Royals were locked in on Overland Park for a new stadium got refuted almost in real time.

Mayor Q piled on him worse than anyone and now Q says he has up to $1.4 billion for the Royals downtown. What?
