Paul went out of town for one of the momentous two week periods in American history. The debate was a disaster for Biden. An assasination attempt against Trump. JD Vance was named his VP pick, Biden appears to be staying in the presidential race. Also, the Secret Service received a massive black eye due to their incompetence (which will be analyzed further in the weeks ahead). Where does all this leave us here in New Mexico?

The Congressional SAVE Act would require proof of citizenship to vote. Democrats including Gabe Vasquez and NM's other Democrats voted no.

The special session kicks off on Thursday. Progressives and liberal Democrats are NOT happy. What is being discussed in the session? Are these policies concerning? Will they be effective in addressing crime? What should Republicans say and do about the session?

PNM has asked the PRC for a 23% rate increase to pay for ETA

Everything the left doesn't like is a "power grab." Specifically, we're talking about the left's reaction to some basic election related changes to City of Albuquerque elections.

Paul and Wally also provide an update on the status of election changes.

Las Cruces voters will vote on a massive tax hike this fall.
