(LISTEN): "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn discusses special session on "Wake Up Missouri"

from Eagle Eye News On Demand · host Zimmer Communications

"Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn says this is one of the most bizarre special sessions he's ever seen. The Senate approved the three proposals in Governor Mike Kehoe's (R) special session call: storm damage, tax incentives aimed at keeping the Chiefs and Royals in Missouri and $50-million for a proposed new research reactor at Mizzou in Columbia. Mr. Faughn appeared live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri", telling hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell that the Senate took orders from Governor Kehoe and from the House and didn't push back. Mr. Faughn also discussed State Sen. Rick Brattin's (R-Raymore) vote for stadium legislation. Faughn tells listeners that that Senator Brattin came back to Jefferson City this year as a different senator who wants to accomplish things. Faughn also criticizes the Freedom Caucus, saying it's a way for trial attorneys to protect their ability to file lawsuits:
