St. Louis Morning Brief: Jesus Cruz Isn't a "Collinsville Man," Francis Howell's $250K Hiring Disaster & The MLK Bridge's $629 Million Problem

from The Marc Cox Morning Show

The Marc Cox Morning Show's St. Louis Morning Brief is packed this morning and every story hits close to home. The media is still calling an illegal Nicaraguan national a "Collinsville man" — Marc sets the record straight and explains exactly why Congresswoman Nikki Budzinski is stirring the pot and what she's really after. Then, Francis Howell School District handed a superintendent $250,000 to walk away before he worked a single day — and the vetting firm they paid to prevent exactly this didn't even bother to Google the guy. And the MLK Bridge that's been connecting Missouri and Illinois since 1951 is deteriorating fast, with a $629 million price tag and absolutely no plan to pay for it. Local news that actually matters, delivered straight — only on The Marc Cox Morning Show. Don't miss a word.
