Rep. Mike Bost on Iran, James Tallarico’s Controversy, Missouri Child Abuse Law, and In Other News

Marc Cox opens Hour 2 with Illinois Congressman Mike Bost dissecting Iran’s decades-long threats, the pursuit of nuclear weapons, and the complexities of the War Powers Act, highlighting U.S. military responses and the risks faced by service members. The discussion shifts to Texas politics with James Tallarico’s Senate candidacy, his controversial statements on gender and abortion, and concerns over voter strategy against him. Marc then explores Missouri’s HB 1770 with grandfather Alan Coggins and Detective Charlie Herwig, addressing the need to extend the statute of limitations for child abuse cases to allow justice for victims. The hour closes with a mix of odd and human-interest stories: the auction of the Ace Ventura rhino prop, an Arkansas sheriff’s primary winner facing murder charges, a beer pong accident requiring emergency surgery, rare dinosaur fossils hitting the auction block, and United Airlines’ headphone enforcement policy.
