Certainly! If you can orchestra the largest voter fraud in history, and then have your own justice department say you aren't mentally fit to stand trial over documents, then anything is possible.

Deborah Greene

Yes! Trump was after Hunter for 6 years. Hunter would have received a ridiculous long-term sentence under the Trump reign. Statistically people do not receive the Convection andsentences that he has and would have to endure. It was all politically motivated by Trump in his team.

Nina Ogle

This was politically motivated. Besides, Trump committed treason and caused an insurrection resulting in the deaths of law enforcement officers. No punishment for him, so why go after Hunter?

Max DeYoung

So wrong on so many points. But, you like the Kool-Aid.

Cause he said he wouldn't in the first place. If he goes back on his word . Why is he still in office what else is he messing up nation wise for Trump to straighten out when he comes in . Hunter shouldn't get a free pass from Daddy that's what's wrong with these parents now days .

Max DeYoung

Nancy Pelosi orchestrated the Jan 6 debacle. Ashli Babbit was the only person who died by violence. Some overweight Capital Police died from underlying conditions, and later some others committed suicide from guilt issues.

Nina Ogle

Are you forgetting the insurrection caused by Trump? Police officers died in that and he got away with it.

Douglas Poston

He said he wouldn't. It just shows it pays to have friend in high places, whether or not they are of sound mind.

Nine Wire

I thought it would be Kamala that would pardon him and Joe and his crones did too. When the Libs got their rear handed to them and Kamala lost Joe had no choice but to pardon Hunter himself. Another Lib lie that has come full circle for all to see. Let the denials begin.....

Toasty

Should he have? No. For all the screaming self-righteous chest beaters watching Fox News, if it were your son/daughter, what you you do? If I were President and the power to do so, 100% I would have pardoned. Despite my feelings about biden and his failure to our country, he's still a dad.

Not since the Great Depression has wealth inequality in the US been so acute, Top 0.1% now worth as much as the bottom 90%. Prior to Reagan and trickle-down economics in the mid-80's, the bottom 90% held over 35% and the top 0.1% about 10%. And yet, the wealthiest among us still want more!

This data is from 12 years ago, but it is only WORSE now. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2014/nov/13/us-wealth-inequality-top-01-worth-as-much-as-the-bottom-90

I say fire every Politian. I have not seen one yet that knows what they are doing. They are only for themself and not for the people of the State.

Toasty

If the revenue isn't replaced (along with cuts) with a flat/consumption/fair tax, then it's a waste of time. When it comes to spending money, republicans can waste it as much as the democrats.

Fred

It would probably be replaced by higher regressive sales tax rates.

Steve Baumann

Nothing the Democrats have done of offered has ever helped the majority of the people. Obamacare caused my healthcare to skyrocket and quality to plummet. Democratic scandals, such as those seen in Minnesota with the Somalians, far too common. It's past time to support out President.

Fred

Right ... other than the 19th Amendment, Social Security, GI Bill, Medicare, Medicaid, Securities and Exchange Act, Rural Electrification Act, unemployment benefits, Voting Rights Act, Head Start & student loans, Republicans? Tax cuts for corporations & the wealthy.

Your question is way too generic. To a degree that that renders it pointless.

Eric Smith

Kehoe is ok, and I mean just ok. Unfortunately, Missouri has now had two weak governors back-to-back.

Toasty

Is he Tim Waltz level incompetence? No, but with a republican majority, he could do better. Listen to The Eagle every morning and Randy will give you all the details.

He rammed through legislation reversing laws enacted via the ballot box. This LBJ wannabe needs impeached or voted out into obscurity

Lisa Harter Kerns

Public schools need funded

Ed Smith

Allowing gambling on sports, while ACL, relocation and retirement occur in that same instance sounds premeditated. Reversing voter decisions is communist! And, have car dealers started getting their commission on the property tax collections, yet?

Danny Bowling

No income tax doesnt work check all the states that tried it. RESCT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE!

John Scherer

Killing the rural public schools. Promoting the St. Louis County private school agenda. Where is the accountability for private schools supported with public money?

Vancie Brown

Nothing is getting done

Bruce Russell

Governors tax policies are misguided. Capital Gains and income tax elimination will shift the tax burden to lower and middle income folks. Saying this is to attract new business is a weak argument.

Tom Maxwell

He is screwing over the average Missourian to give himself and other rich people a tax break.

Robert Rasmussen

He's continued Missouri's race to the bottom with Texas and Florida when it comes to this culture war bull, his proposition to eliminate income tax is fake populist pandering, in reality it's a rug pull on the poor and a handout for the rich.

John Shadwick

His tax plan is a blatant wealth transfer. A sales tax increase disproportionally harms lower income individuals.

Madison Haleigh

Because he hasn't done anything to help people get affordable housing or access to healthcare. He takes money from big companies to build data centers.
