In a podcast interview, President Donald Trump pushed the idea that the GOP should control election systems in at least 15 states. The comments sparked swift backlash from lawmakers who called the proposal “outlandishly illegal,” raising fresh concerns about federal overreach ahead of the 2026 midterms.  However, politicians and the media weren't upset when President Joe Biden tried to do the same thing.

VOTING FIRESTORM? Pres. Trump Calls for GOP Takeover of State Elections

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/a7b0bd27-d748-4fbe-ab3b-a6fa0049bcf6/clips/13eb2f2e-a738-4d8f-8f8d-b3e601322d9e/transcript

California lawmakers are advancing a study on a Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) tax as the state searches for new ways to fund its transportation system amid declining gas‑tax revenue. Assembly Bill 1421 extends long‑running research into whether a mileage-based fee could eventually replace the gas tax, with findings due by January 2027. Supporters say the study is needed to address shrinking revenue, while critics fear it could pave the way for a future tax burden on drivers—especially rural commuters.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Reedley City Manager Nicole Zieba joins Broeske & Musson in studio to discuss a recent FBI raid on a Las Vegas home that uncovered a suspected illegal biolab tied directly to the notorious Reedley, CA operation. Property records connect the Las Vegas site to the same individuals linked to Reedley’s dangerous stockpile of infectious agents, including HIV, malaria, and dengue fever. Authorities also recovered vials of unknown liquids and lab equipment similar to what was found in Reedley.

Fresno County marked a historic milestone with its first-ever fentanyl murder conviction as Cassidy Gonzalez was sentenced for causing a fatal overdose. Meanwhile, in New York, a federal judge removed the death penalty as a possibility for Luigi Mangione, who still faces life in prison for the killing of a UnitedHealthcare CEO. And in NYC politics, Mayor Zohran Mamdani appointed Stanley Richards—the first formerly incarcerated individual—to lead the Department of Correction, signaling a reform‑driven shift in city leadership.
