Missouri’s new Republican Gov, Mike Kehoe says he is starting out by addressing crime in Missouri. Weird. 1) he backs Trump and his pardoning of insurrectionists who beat cops with flags. 2) the Missouri GOP has been in control for 22 years. If crime is out of control, who should we blame?

Everyone knows K.C. & St Louis are crime-ridden. All that in the middle is fueled by meth, fentynal and Busch beer. I'm a transplant from a blue state, and it amazes me how apathetic a huge amount of Missourians are about their communities and what's going on. Of course, this is Dump country mainly.
