Missouri Republicans push bill to ban red flag laws, curb local gun regulation • Missouri Independent A Missouri House committee heard testimony Wednesday on a bill that would prevent courts from seizing weapons from high-risk individuals.

Chad here has sponsored a bill that would ban red flag laws.

Red flag laws temporarily remove guns from folks that are at a high-risk of hurting themselves or others and are typically brought by the person's family or local law enforcement.

But never you mind, friend. Chad knows best.

Credit where credit is due.

Our very own @piperformissouri.bsky.social went to Jeff City today for the rally on the Capitol. 💙💙💙

What about you?? Did you go?

Sen. Eric Schmitt: "I personally think we ought to be active in pursuing Greenland…Denmark's claims to Greenland are nebulous."

He may be MO's junior senator, but he's a senior-level bootlicker.

Irony is dead.

Democrats Really Can Compete in Rural America The results for the 2025 election cycle send a powerful message regarding strategies that connect outside of urban centers.

Abortion trial details how laws drove providers from Missouri Planned Parenthood clinics • Missouri Independent Decades of laws regulating abortion providers and clinics made it difficult to recruit or authorize doctors to perform abortions.

Did they really have to ban abortion or was it enough to drive out all the providers? Because they did both.

Belt and suspenders, you know.

Friends, there are reports of ICE gathering in Kansas City and St. Louis. This very helpful graphic, shared from @aclumn.bsky.social - the ACLU of Minnesota - is a great summary of your rights if ICE shows up at your door. Please share with your networks. 💙

Feds demand Missouri justify child care expenses to receive delayed funding • Missouri Independent Though the state has submitted the required information, child care providers still don’t know when they will receive payments.

MO child care providers are caring for our kids *without pay* because some folks in DC denied subsidy payments until they could be "justified."

Meanwhile, Congress just gave ICE $75 billion, and new ICE agents can get $50k signing bonuses.

So-called "pro-life" priorities are interesting, eh?

Leave no district uncontested, no nominee unsupported, and no voter behind. Run everywhere – especially in the reddest places. #runeverywhere #redstatedemocrat #everystateblue #bluemissouri

Denny Hoskins isn't verifying one-third of signatures for vote on Missouri’s gerrymandered map • Missouri Independent Signatures on only two-thirds of the petitions submitted to force a vote on Missouri’s gerrymandered congressional map will go through verification.

This is disgusting, but moving the goalposts is now officially part of the GOP game plan. Rules and precedent will be followed only so long as it helps the GOP.

Enough of their attempts to silence us. Every last one of them needs to be voted out. #bluemissouri #everystateblue

That $ went directly to nominees, who used it to organize and spread a Democratic message in red, rural communities. It's grassroots power at its best!

We're unique in WHO we fund, but also in HOW we fund them.

Because we create communities of big💙 people like you who want to support these nominees. Our members kick in a few bucks a month so that together, over time, our collective impact is massive.

In '24 we distributed ~220k across MO! 🤩

Blue MO crowdfunds for underfunded Dems running for MO state legislature. We fund the folks with the fewest resources. We boost the underdogs!

We lift nominees who are fighting fascism in their own backyards –not despite the fact their race is hard, but BECAUSE it is.

We're proud to do it.
