Yeah…Yeah…Yeah… 

Adam: I’m nominating the Missouri Senate Dems for using an extreme minority of seats to bully the fractured GOP to leave for spring break early

Rachel: Rep. Cori Bush: https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/cori-bush-transportation/

Sean: 

True or False

1. Tucker’s Lies Are Too Big To Swallow (Especially the ones about Josh Hawley) - sneaky Missouri 2024 senate talk
   1. River Front Times: https://www.riverfronttimes.com/news/hawleys-infamous-chicken-run-was-really-a-chicken-jog-tucker-carlson-argues-39611312
   2. Saying Hawley was brave by being in the back of the pack, like he was waiting to protect people
      • (For Sean if you want it):  UUuuhhhhmmmm… hey Tucker… protect them from what? Wasn’t it a peaceful group of tourists? What was he protecting them from? And what was he running from? 
   3. This stuff is why I think this 2024 race with Kunce is a real race. Hawley is weak, feckless, and a fraud. And the hard core Right, the ones whos trucks are big but also very clean… the don’t watch Fox any more anyway, its fake news now. So who are they even spinning this too? 
      • Missouri abortion petition too: https://missouriindependent.com/2023/03/09/group-files-ballot-measures-adding-abortion-protections-to-missouri-constitution/

Yeah…No, Yeah 

1. Idaho Artwork Removed 
   1. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/mar/07/idaho-college-abortion-artwork-banned?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
   2. Meanwhile, not to be outdone because everything is bigger in Texas, a group of women are suing over the texas abortion ban: https://abcnews.go.com/Health/5-women-sue-texas-abortion-bans-lives-put/story?id=97614294

Buy or Sell

1. “Florida For All” Is A Winning Message?
   1. Adam said this week on Twitter: If Florida wasn’t surrounded by beaches and filled with theme parks, it would be Idaho. 
   2. DeSanits big plan was to make Florida a utopia of some kind and then try and sell that as a national plan

   3. What if they realize this gun law if from Florida?

The Big One

1. 2024 Presidential Race! 
2. What’s the Mt. Rushmore of issues for 2024, and why?  (Deeper dive in last call this is just a brush over)

   2. Pew Research 2022 issues polling from February: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022/02/25/state-of-the-union-2022-how-americans-view-major-national-issues/
3. Comparisons of last 30 years - leaving out the 1996 and 2008 elections which are good examples of what a real mismatch can do to the map
