    The West Virginia Legislature created the Critical Incident Review Team last year. Earlier this month, lawmakers heard from the team for the first time. The CIRT is tasked with reviewing fatalities and near-fatalities of children in the child welfare system, and make recommendations on how they could have been prevented. Lawmakers learned that there have been 32 incidents, 29 of which were child deaths between January and April of this year. Delegate Adam Burkhammer wants answers.

  • Betting on Bad Beef?
    Aug 26 2026
    President Trump's plan to import 300,000 tons of ground beef at 25% below market value is probably a bad way to lower beef prices. The meat may have been what was rejected by China and why is a Republican president setting price controls?

    I talk about that plus data centers, flock cameras, and the foster care crisis with WV Senate candidate Chris Miller. Also, Allan Bryant, President of the Kentucky Cattlemen's Association shares his frustration with Trump's decision.

  • Flock Cameras Lead To Possible Fourth Amendment Violation
    Aug 25 2026
    In Georgia, a "Cherokee County Sheriff's deputy barged into a house without a warrant, looking to arrest the 21-year-old son of the homeowner", according to a local TV news report. Natasha Lopez Noble is the homeowner. Her son did not live in her home. He was arrested without incident even though officers originally had no arrest warrant. Deputies then went into Natasha's home without her consent or a warrant, even though she was not accused of a crime and there was no probably cause. She is now bringing a civil suit against the the sheriff's department for violating her 4th Amendment rights. Natasha says Flock cameras were used in this incidence to track her son and his girlfriend. Most police officers do follow the Constitution and that's why those who don't need to be exposed. At the end of this episode, you'll also hear my son Sutton's call in to my radio show. Sutton recently graduated from the West Virginia Police Academy and is employed as an officer by Marshall University Police Department.
