11:05A – 11:22A (17mins)   David Stokes, director of municipal policy at the Show-Me Institute, to discuss his multi-part series: A Free-Market Guide for Missouri Municipalities?

 The series offers practical, research-backed guidance on how Missouri cities, towns, and villages can better organize, fund, and operate themselves to serve residents and taxpayers more effectively.
Part One: Municipal Organization and Structure
Examines how different forms of local government—such as boards of trustees, mayor-council systems, and city managers—impact accountability, efficiency, and service delivery.
 Part Two: Taxation (Released last week)
Analyzes how Missouri municipalities raise revenue and makes the case for shifting away from volatile and distortionary sources like sales and income taxes. It recommends a more balanced, growth-oriented approach centered on property taxes, user fees, and greater transparency in the use of special taxing districts.

 

11:25 – 11:37 (17mins) NY AG Letitia James Is BIG MAD At The Trump Administration – How Dare They

 

11:41 – 11:56 (15mins)  Weekly Feature:  “WHEEL OF AUDIO CLIPS!”
