Over the years, Missouri has been home to many Black leaders in entertainment, science, literature, activism and more.

Republicans in the state legislature are attempting to strip power from St. Louis's Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner, saying that she can't get a handle on crime in the city, but these same legislators are simultaneously doing everything they can to make violent crime an even more intractable problem in the city. That was the gist of a three minute TikTok video put out by state Representative Peter Merideth (D-St. Louis), who described himself as pretty upset after Republicans in the house passed a bill that would take away Gardner's ability to prosecute violent crime in St. Louis and instead grant that authority to a special prosecutor appointed by the governor.

At the press conference, State Representative Chris Miller (R-Oakland) pointed to a copy of an electric bill that was more than twice the amount of the bill from the previous year. “I hear all of the time from people in my district who are experiencing the same thing,” Miller said. “Families are already struggling to pay their bills.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Following the news that Big Oil companies made record-breaking profits last year while working families struggled to afford sky-high gas prices, U.S. Senators Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Patty Murray (D-WA) will reintroduce legislation that would crack down on this sort of corporate greed by preventing the oil industry from engaging in gasoline price gouging. Specifically, the Gas Price Gouging Prevention Act would make it unlawful to sell gasoline at a price that is unconscionably excessive during a crisis affecting the oil markets. “It is outrageous that Big Oil raked in billions of dollars in record-breaking profit by choosing to jack up gas prices at the expense of working families—rather than boost production to meet the needs of everyday consumers,” Duckworth said. “No megacorporation should be using Putin’s war of choice against Ukraine or any other crisis as an excuse to excessively increase
